It's pretty easy to be depressed about the pandemic when you see stories like these: 43 percent of Republicans who say they won't get the vaccine, hospitalizations going up, and Canada maybe not opening the border until September because their vaccine rollout has been so mal. But we still have some favorite things that, once this awful time has ended, we'll look back on with a grin. Here are a few.
The White House Correspondents' Dinner has been canceled — again!
Folks drove less, and the air was cleaner. And lots of pets got adopted.
If meetings didn't have to be held on Zoom, members of the Canadian Parliament would never have seen their fellow MP naked.
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip were able to enjoy a quiet last year together at Windsor.
For every coronavirus death that you're upset about — like Bucky Pizzarelli, Terrence McNally or Ellis Marsalis — there are probably a dozen Trumpsters who called it a hoax, flouted mask rules, didn't practice social distancing, and paid the ultimate price.
And last but not least, how glorious to hear Maxine Waters tell Gym Jordan "shut your mouth" today. Sure, considering that 550,000 Americans are dead, Dr. Fauci missed a great opportunity for a Joseph Welch "have you no decency" moment — but Maxine saved the day. She spoke for all of America, and we love her. We cats PURR.
