Many bloviating self-congratulatory celebrities and B-list politicians are promulgating doomsday “This is the new normal” online commencement speeches, but Tim Conway, Jr. does it right.

Yep. Nailed it.

Oh, and if you’ve never heard Conway’s show, you’re missing out.
The theme song alone is worth it.

Herr Wolf has just tipped his hand.

Gov. Tom Wolf said Wednesday he is talking with professional sports leagues about holding events in Pennsylvania, but he doesn’t believe residents will be completely comfortable going back to pre-pandemic normalcy until there is a coronavirus vaccine.

“Ultimately, I think what it’s going to take for everybody to feel safe going to a Penn State game or a basketball game is they have some confidence that they’re not going to get sick by being in close contact with somebody else,” he said during a call with reporters.

He said going back to “normal” will hinge on Pennsylvanians feeling fully and truly safe.

“I think that’s what it’s going to take to really get our economy back to normal, and I really think that can’t happen fully, 100%, until we have a vaccine that is foolproof,” Wolf said…“I think what it’s going to take to get people back to big events – indeed, what it’s going to take to get people back to shopping, to work , to school – is going to be, ultimately, a vaccine,” Wolf said. “Some assurance they’re not going to get sick.”

Ummmmm, no. This has gone on entirely to far.

This ceased to be about public health/safety very early on. Its a power grab, a way to try to destroy Trump, and a way toward voter fraud. It’s that simple.

The Wuhan coronavirus pandemic terror has caused many business owners (and their employees) to lose their asses, and fortunately there’s an inexpensive replacement. One size fits most, but there are double-wides available for a small fee (plus corpulence tax).

Although there’s a limited supply, you’ll get yours in the end. The line forms at the rear on this long overdue
