Day 17 -- You know the drill by now...

  • Starting with more Tara Strong awesomeness.  Since there are no conventions to do, Strong is selling time on Fanmio for one-on-one fan interactions (higher tiers include T-shirts and autographs, etc. -- I think the lowest tier is a T-shirt and a raffle place for a one-on-one), raising money for Meals on Wheels.  The "event" is tomorrow.



  • Olbermann back tonight:

Updates:
  • One of the last venues holding any sports, Santa Anita racetrack, finally closed it's doors due to pressure.
  • Dana White is still adamnant that he's going to hold UFC 249 somewhere, and is blasting criticism of his efforts.  Hey, stupid...  You may never actually be able to hold another large-scale event of any kind (music, sports, etc.) in front of a large crowd ever again.
  • This afternoon, ESPN was showing a marathon of games where a pitcher recorded 20 strikeouts.
  • Reviled owner of MSG and runner of the New York Knicks James Dolan tested positive today.  We just need to admit everyone in the city of New York -- hell, the entire United States, is positive for the virus.  
  • You can add Orlando McDaniel to the list of the deceased from COVID-19.  One of the scariest things I've seen about this is that it seems...  The more you travel and the higher-profile you are, the WORSE this might be for you.
  • Twitter briefly suspended the account of Trump personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani -- spreading false information about the coronavirus.

Uh oh...
  • Story out of Boston:  A group of workers from New Jersey were forcibly barricaded into their rental property on a nearby island by a bunch of armed residents due to the coronavirus. This is exactly the beginnings of mass unrest.  Be careful out there.

Another wonderful gem from the voice of Fang from the Final Fantasy XIII series:
