2020: Losers and More Losers

You didn't believe me, did you?

Admit it.  You checked my blog on the day before New Year's Eve to see if I really was going to make a list of winners and losers for 2020 after I vowed not to.  You didn't think I was serious, did you?  You though I was kidding you all (anyone you says "y'all" out to get locked up for life, especially if they're not from the American South) when I said I wasn't going to do it.

Well, I didn't.  It was simply the worst year ever.  No one won and everyone lost.  There are local businesses where I live that didn't survive COVID.  There are also people where I live that didn't survive COVID.  There are black people all over America that didn't survive the police.  There are a lot of people, places and things that didn't survive the California wildfires or the Atlantic basin storms (all thirty of them) that had to be dealt with.  
Who won?  There's just one thing I got to know, can you tell me please, who would ask who won?  David Crosby, who came up with a song lyric like that, won't be asking. He's still trying to keep a roof over his head now that he can't make money of his records and all of his concert dates got canceled.  

No one won. Everyone lost.  It's over, COVID dropped the big one.  The end.

Guess I'll set a course and go . . . 😢
