Cover Song
Stand by me – John Lennon https://youtu.be/4RdATJ_6870
Come on, let’s be honest here. We’re in a safe space. Are there covers you prefer over the originals? I don’t know about the rest of you, but the radios keep playing reboot of classic songs. While they’re fine remakes, they play like ALL the time. We make bets at our work when the radio stations will play them.
So when I say prefer a cover over an original, it doesn’t mean you don’t like the original. Just, you might like a cover that little bit better. All the ones on the radio, I actually don’t like, lol. They’re fine, but these remixes encourage no originality, whatsoever.
Here a few of my favourite covers: Again, I like all the originals, just fine, I just prefer these ones a little more.
Sorry, lol…I cry at this version.

Hong Kong now has the world’s highest Covid-19 death rate. What happened, and how can this be fixed? | South China Morning Post
Deaths from Covid-19 complications in Hong Kong have been crossing the 100 mark daily over the past four days such that the city now has the world’s highest fatality rate for the coronavirus, mostly among undervaccinated elderly residents.
Authorities said they were funnelling more resources to senior patients, particularly those from care homes that had been ravaged by infections, but according to experts the measures were still too slow to come on stream and they warned that more grim statistics lay ahead.
They suggested instead that certain treatments such as intravenous medication could be performed directly in care homes, short-circuiting cumbersome rules that existed. Several also called on the government to speed up the process of sending elderly patients to temporary isolation or care facilities to lower cross-infection risks, as well as to vaccinate seniors who had not yet caught Covid-19.

Let The Snarky Snippets Roll!
I’ve always been a news junkie, I think since I learned to read at around age 5 or so, but I cannot remember a time that the news created as much angst as these last few years, and especially the last week or so! What to do with all that angst? Well, turn it into snarky snippets and share it with my friends, of course! 😏
Florida’s #1 Jerk
Numerous states in this country have the misfortune to be governed by fools who put their own political careers ahead of the well-being of the people of their state, but I often think there is none so corrupt, so uncaring for the people of his state, as Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis.
