Happy Easter

It's Easter Sunday...as we all shelter in place...hoping...praying...for a cure for this horrific virus that surrounds the World...

It's a test for us all...as the churches preach, that 'Jesus Christ has risen!'...without parishioners in their midst...whether you are a believer or not, the message is powerful...and as worthy as anything out there...take some time to figure it all out...it is up to you, and only you, to take the meaning to heart...

Snooki sent his song out...'Hallelujah'...he recommends two versions, one by KD Lang, and the other by 2 Cellos...I listened to KD's and it was quite nice...could not find 2 Cellos...my personal fav of the song is by Jeff Buckley...regardless, kids...it is riveting...

That song was written by a Canadian, Leonard Cohen...released in 1984...his version is totally different, mostly due to his lower voice...crackling sort of...and now you know...take some time this am, and play it on whatever you listen to...

I couldn't take it any more...so, I tried...but, the beard came off yesterday...look to the left, and that's kind of what I am...now...the itch was too great...ha ha...well, it will return in stubble form...but, not in length....

We ventured out on a 'legal' bike ride yesterday...gosh, I am not sure what is truly legal anymore...word out is that the police were ticketing people, without masks...near the 94...and for bikers...well, we rode on the streets...not in parks....adorned by the masks...one of our normal paths, is by the bay...which was slammed with people!...'legal areas'...which we will not go to again...like being at Costco...the downtown Gaslamp Quarter, was virtually abandoned...with most restaurants closed...and if they were, the homeless had set up camp in front of some of their spots...tragic...the city has given them sites in the convention center, which they choose against...

This...our beloved Gaslamp Strip Club...not what you think...it was a grill your own meat restaurant, not the girly thang...has shuttered and is now replaced by this...what?...have no idea what it is to be...well, until all this has lifted...

How are the homeless in your city?...I am betting very similar...if you care to comment, do it at the end of this blog...or send me an email...pajshepard@gmail.com...

Another Q...we have listened to Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, often, lately...really...that's the set up...who out there has actually seen them, or the Rat Pack live?...LIVE...I have not, as scratch was not in my wallet back in those days...ha ha...like now, too...

We had a power outage yesterday...with little notice as to why...well, no notice...I kept thinking it was the cable company...but, the microwave's time went off...as well as my computer...odd...

We are finally heading into warmer, sunnier days...perhaps, a bit of the showery stuff today...then the coast is much clearer...like really...yes, finally...

See ya'll tomorrow...
