Albert Einstein is famous for many witticisms. One of his best is a definition of insanity; "Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result." I'm the king of this when it comes to mastering golf.
Anyway, in Belfast Northern Ireland they have, as of today, gone into a three week total lockdown to thwart the effects of the virus. I hope this one works. It'll be the third one.
Closer to home I watched the TV classic A Christmas Story last evening. One would have to try and miss it since on 24/7 on TNT. The home shown in the film is still located in 'The Mistake By The Lake' Cleveland, Ohio. One can take a tour and across the street is their gift shop. One can purchase a leg lamp, too. Why not buy one and send it to someone you detest.
The film, 'It's A Wonderful Life' was released in 1946 and was a financial bomb. To me this is mindboggling. I'd have gone if only to look at Donna Reed. Anyway, in 1973 TBS put it on as a filler for the Christmas season and it took off. And since then is now a staple of the season.
