And that is why smart animals have 4 legs

So yea - I've been feeling pretty cockie with my knee running up stairs, sprinting across the street like an agile human and everything has been going great.

I trotted down stairs yesterday morning and on the second to the last step my non-knee ankle twists and I lose my balance  . . however my wounded knee kicks into action and immediately misses the next step and crumbles as the first 5 pounds of downward thrust hits it and I miss the very last step and tumble unto the floor. 

Gus is immediately at my side saying "I told you so" (the two leg thing). 

Luckily with years and years of practice falling I have become pretty good at it.   A few years ago I was carrying a 50 pound bag of salt and my feet slipped and I literally saw my shoes and the street lights at the same time and landed on my back.   Nothing.  Not even a sore back.

ANYWAY - I wish it was like that this time.  OH - I'm fine but my knee got blowed out! LOL  My graph only goes back to when my TKR was suppose to be and at no time has the pain been above a 2    WE GOT SIX NOW!!    No worries.  I have not brought in the heavy guns pain pills yet.  I'm sure that by the time we can all go out to play next week it will be fine.

Well, the man on TV said it was ending next week so . . . . . . you know - the guy that last year fired the US epidemiologist who was embedded with the Chinese CDC.  He wasn't replaced. Not needed I guess.

HOWEVER - to be 100% fair and balanced . . . yes - the senior director of the NSC’s Office of Global Health Security and Biodefense was vaporized, however the duties did not evaporate  . . . the talent did though.  Which has been the real problem up and down the line.  Experts being replaced with rich political hacks with no government experiance.

OH there are some good ones you see on TV but the people running things are newbie to government which if you have ever been in government (me 25 years) you know that outsiders just flounder embarrassingly.    CALLED IT!! 

It seems in November the Center for Strategic & International Studies recommended restoring the original position in the NSC as one of seven key changes to better protect the American public from an impending global health threats.   UN HEADED. 

So there ya have it.

Virus count.   america is 5 days behind Italy in infections and 13 days behind China in the number of infections.  China went init total lock down which our government does not seem to want to do.

3/19/20 . . . 7,800
3/20/20 . . .13,700  76% increase 
3/21/20 . . .19,100  39%
3/22/20 . . .25,500  34%
3/23/20 . . .33,300  31%
3/24/20 . . .46,481  40%

At this rate America hits 1 million by April 4th and 10 million by April 11
