Second wave ? No chance .
"Fearmongers and cowards are to be shot on the spot."
Joseph Stalin order 227 -
Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on thebiggestSecond wave
You race towards an early grave
When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

The government has no interest in killing off future tax payers who will be needed to pay the costs of COVID. It's perfectly safe for them to go back to school.Originally posted by psychocandy View PostBeginning to see that COVID FEAR appears to have taken on a life of its own....
