Today is the day for right means, for they accompany right conduct.
On this day in 1985, the Australian government returned ownership of Uluru (Ayers Rock) to the local Aboriginal tribe.
I got my covids vaccine booster shot today. Moderna again - I didn't mix and match. The average number of covids cases per day here in Georgia continues to drop, and is now down to 1,312 cases per day, the lowest level since July 20th. I wish I could say that the decreasing caseloads in Georgia were due to vaccinations, but Georgia in the 9th least vaccinated state in the country. Vermont, the most vaccinated state in the country, is currently experiencing a covids spike for some reason. The per capita number of cases in Vermont (33 per 100,000) is higher than the per capita rate in Georgia (12 per 100,000). Some speculate that the colder weather in Vermont is driving people indoors, where the covids spread better, but no one is really sure why. There's still a lot we don't know about the virus.
Everything was calm out in the Atlantic until it wasn't. Although not technically a tropical storm, a nor'easter has suddenly popped up about 200 miles south-southeast of Cape Cod, and is wrecking havoc in flood-prone parts of New York and New Jersey. Meanwhile, a "bomb cyclone" is ravaging the Pacific Northwest, and tornados once again tore through parts of the midwest in between the nor'easter and the bomb cyclone. Good times . . .
Finally, the Georgia Secretary of State's web page acknowledges that they received and approved my mail-in election ballot.
That's what passes for news around here lately. We'll pick this up again tomorrow.
