Paper, Vaccine, Happy New Year

If you have access to YouTube, mosey on over, look up Joe Van Cleve and watch his recent bit on papers to type on. He goes through his history with them and settles in a favorite. Joe also, in my views, he trys to blog the thing and get it to have viewers to comment. Well, hmmm, as I type that it seems wrong. He has his blog on YouTube (not like the Vlog Brothers but in the same way of …) that is a separately highlighted (?) titled bunch of videos. In all of them he encourages people to comment. This place would be a great place for our collective impressions about paper to type on to show up. A place to gather it up to find. Yes, just search for him by name, if you have not done so yet. There is a lot of postings on typewriters there.

Yesterday I had a procedure that had been scheduled for April. They seemed to be hot on getting all of the stuff we had set for 2020 run through. Even though I am covered by Kaiser they had me go to OHSU. They paid out some pretty pennies for that. The nurse that did it was fine and we chatted about different thing that we could during my non-sedated state for it. As she was walking me out I asked about her Covid vaccine status. She had gotten hers earlier that week. It seems they, OHSU, has already administered 6,000 shots. So Yay! they seem to be well on their way. I had to be Covid tested before the visit, because I spent the time without a mask and the nurse standing next to me. Between my negative status and her vaccinated start, we were OK.

I hope all of you have a wonderful New Year’s Eve celebration tonight. We are planning on another Happy time together, alone together. There have not been any fireworks yet – so maybe we’ll be lucky. Side note, my wife received an email from a old friend, who reported that there are no available beds in Germany. They said there were no beds available for “Covid patients and not for drunks and fireworks.”

This typing was interrupted by a call from Kaiser. I get to go back for another, well a repeat, and we chatted a bit. It seems they have dome some 2,000 doctors and are asking them to vaccinate their patents Well, if I understood her. I do understand they are training everyone on administering the vaccine. Maybe we will have enough to do it all.
