Generations

“Aren't you beginning to feel time gaining on you? It's like a predator; it's stalking you. Oh, you can try and outrun it with doctors, medicines, new technologies. But in the end, time is going to hunt you down... and make the kill.” — Dr. Tolian Soran to Captain Jean-Luc Picard from “Star Trek: Generations”
There has been absolutely no contact from immediate family. The disposition of moms remains unknown. Clearly, if moms had been capable, a call would have been made. Previous evidence has already suggested that moms has dementia. Of course, the bro’s family has every intention of permanently severing ties. Consider the excommunication completed.

Being alone isn’t so bad. Dying alone may be more troublesome. However, a pariah has no choice in these matters. Oddly, there is much shared in common with some of the more sane homeless. In fact, dining at the food court at Ala Moana Center is much more relaxing when one of the latter is in close proximity. The sane homeless people are quiet and clean up after they are done.

There has been no final decision concerning alternative housing or motorhomelessness. The possibility of a coronavirus epidemic here is highly likely given the sheer number of tourists vacationing with absolutely no screening in place. If an epidemic ensues, it will spread across the island rapidly and to the other islands with equal rapidity. The ramifications are ominous. Of course, a good pandemic could really clean up the “mess” around here. Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Picard and Dr. Soran

The previously deactivated Crackle account was reactivated in order to view the ”Star Trek” flicks (featuring the Next Generation cast) on the iPhone XR. Because of the temporary nature of the account, the associated “app” was not downloaded.

Addendum: The second dose of the shingles vaccine was obtained at Walmart® in town. The Medicare Advantage health plan actually covered the exorbitant cost except for the $3.90 copayment. There were a couple of adverse reactions to the vaccine, which weren’t experienced with the first dose.

Breaking! A 60yo male has tested positive for the Chinese coronavirus COVID-19 upon his return to Japan after vacationing in Hawai’i. The likelihood that he had infected others (during incubation period) while in the islands is extremely high. Search local news sources for more updates.
