Random Thoughts 14: I can see clearly now 2020 edition

I was returning from my morning walk and the guy across the street was out smoking. He told me they are getting ready to sell the house in a 3-4 months. Once he is gone for the immediate vicinity the only original homeowners will be me and the family behind me.
When we moved out here, it was us in our mid 30s a few in their 40s and a bunch of 80+. We are one of the older established out here now, and honestly it has been far from the better. A bunch of jackwagons have moved in. It went from a nicer, quiet and slower moving section to a bunch of redneck hipsters (if there is a thing) thinking that living on the other side of the highway near the golfcourse is a status symbol (no idea where that crap came from). I'm ready to move. Just need to get youngest through school and then I believe the wife is probably even ready to find something different.
The Brits.

I have some Gunnar computer glasses and they have been most useful. There are times when I am staring at monitors for 15-18 hours a day during Tax season (thankfully not too often), and I found that the glasses did reduce eye strain. They do have readers (which probably doesn't help you at this point), as well as progressives and single strength prescription options.
I also use f.lux, a computer program that lets me shift away from blue light (it was around before all of the cell phones added the blue light filter feature).

Some folks will tell you the blue light schtick is overblown, and perhaps it is. I did notice positive results from using the glasses and f.lux. #BEWELL.
Thanks for the appearance. We need you in here, much like the NBA needed Ivan Chiriev, except more.
I found Test Iowa to be just fine in terms of the actual swab and the result turnaround. The swabbing process, for me, was unpleasant, but that's it. I understand other people feel differently.
I had to get the nose swab again, but this lady didnt go reaching for what few brain cells I have left. Just a crazy tickling sensation thats all. Supposed to take 3-5 days for results to come back. Hopefully they are a lot closer to the 24 hour turnaround of Test Iowa.
With Dr. Fauci's recommendation that we all start wearing goggles in addition to masks, should I invest in a pair of rec specs? I'm trying to decide between the Horace Grant look or Kareem look.
That was my experience. It was a little invasive, but the entire appointment with Test Iowa took under 10 minutes in and out, and I got the results back the following evening. No complaints, really.
that might be an option, but I couldn't find a picture of him with the goggles.
I couldn't either, unfortunately, but I remember them. I found his roster listing on cyclones.com from that year but the photo was no longer available.

I saw this on tiktok a few days ago. Rex posted it on twitter today. Pretty weird. If you focus on both you hear a combination "Green Storm"
