A lot of push back about stopping flights from China as well.

Only stopped Chinese from coming in.
American citizens and green card holders (mostly Chinese) were still allowed in from China.  Estimated about 40K people came in from China after the ban.

So it was a weak ban, and not effective enough.

This includes from certain CNN and MSNBC anchors.

How sad that all the good has to get lost in folks harping on what they see as bad.

Stay positive, America.

Happy Easter...

If you're thinking today about what Yeshua of Nazareth was trying to teach people,  look at this grocer in Nawlins.   (since it's pandemic related,  it may not drop a paywall.)

Though, of course, he only stopped some of them. Not even all the flights from Wuhan were stopped.

It's been streaming free all weekend on Youtube's The Show Must Go On. Last weekend was Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Next weekend will be Phantom. A different Andrew Lloyd Webber piece each weekend. These are films of live performances, rather than movies pure and simple

Happy Easter everyone!

Today is all about Jesus dying for our sins, and rising on the third day. No matter what you have done, you are forgiven through the blood of Christ.

I met a former Mexican Mafia hit-man who is now a preacher, he killed people, and he was in prison, and he was going to do a hit on a guy in prison, and the guy was a Christian, and the guy won him over for Christ, instead of getting murdered, the guy saved the hit-man's soul. The former hit-man now preaches with Victory Outreach. Through Christ he was saved.

When my Uncle Dennis was in a program named Live Again, the preacher who was in charge was a former bank robber. Through Christ he was saved, and now he helps other people.

So, that is what today is about, it is about our savior rising from the dead on the third day after dying for our sins, and then he ascended into Heaven, and Jesus will return.

Salute,

Tony V.

I am glad that your religion gives you a sense of meaning and purpose, Tony.

Will have a look.   Thanks.   One of Rice and Webber's best collaborations.  Evita is my other favorite.    I like some of his after-Rice stuff,  like Phantom, but Rice was the finest lyricist he teamed up with IMO.
