That day has arrived… 3 January 2023… the first full work-day of the year. I had to take care of a couple of things yesterday, but that doesn’t really count.
OK, something timely to post. I know that what I write is read by a few eyes, and my intent is to write down stuff happening in the moment, so here’s something that happened late last night. On Monday Night Football, about ten minutes into the game, something happened. A defensive back for Buffalo, Damar Hamlin, was involved in a play, popped back up after the play, then immediately collapsed. CPR was performed on the field, and the reports last night implied that Mr. Hamlin had a pulse, but was not breathing on his own. He was intubated at the hospital, and I haven’t heard any updates… until now. Currently watching the news, Damar Hamlin is in critical condition, but he is alive.
Of course, the ghouls came out right afterward blaming the event on vaccinations. These people are awful. Commotio Cortis is currently being investigated as a cause, where a sudden blow to the chest causes an interruption in the heart rhythm. It’s part of the discussion, but I’m no doctor.
The whole thing reminded me of my cardiac event when I was in my 20s. I think it was 1989. I collapsed with chest pains on a basketball court and went to the emergency room. That was when I discovered the irregular heartbeat issue that I have dealt with for the last thirty years.
Today the new congress gets sworn in, and then we’ll have two years of investigating Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Meh, I’m just not into this right now. I’m going to go make a pot of coffee and get ready for my class.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
