    To date the nearest case is a 1000 km away. I fear the quarantine not the disease.
    I live in a duplex. The neighbor has a teenage daughter who likes to sing only she can't but that doesn't stop her. Phyllis Diller is a songbird by comparison. Rosanne Barr has the voice of an angel next to her's. When she sings babies for a 100 meters start crying. She feels bad the babies are sad so to cheer them up she sings louder prompting babies up to 300 meters to start crying.
    One day she was singing and a teenage boy showed up because the parents were at church. I wouldn't be surprised if the reason she doesn't go with them is because they've been threatened with excommunication if she does. This boy said to her she was a great singer and had she thought about going professional? I should have killed him then. Darwin would have backed me up. We all know what he was really asking, if I show you mine will you show me yours?

    If I get qaurantined someone will die a violent death

    Have you considered a set of noise cancelling head phones BEFORE you end up doing your Dexter impersonation?

    I don't think you fully appreciate where I am.

    My apologies, I was under the impression that you had access to both the internet and the ability to order things online and have them delivered. Since you mentioned that you were not yet under quarantine I assumed that deliveries were still ongoing.

    I'm not under quarantine because I'm in central africa. While I have access to the net I only get deliveries when a friend comes here from the states. He's a good man but no one will be coming from the US for some time

    I hope corona never gets to your area. Just the same, be as ready as you can be.

    Stay safe and have you tried making a set of earmuffs out of the local flora and/or fauna?

    No, but I have made my first mask. I used leftover material from a shirt I had made here so I be stylin'. Working on a campaign to get tailors to throw in masks made from leftover materials from shirts and pants. I bet it catches on. Fortunately all our locally made clothes are 100% cotton.

    Well, it was bound to happen.
    I tried to take a nap yesterday but the child was "singing" her heart out. But after awhile I heard a lot of babies crying nearby. I got up to investigate. There were a bunch of women with crying babies kicking the **** out of the girl and it was pretty obvious that they'd finished the job. The women here are amazingly docile and put up with a lot of **** but sometimes one reaches her limit and snaps, then it's like falling dominoes and pretty soon you have a deadly mob and you do not want to be the object of their attention.
    Now I'm no fool. I can see the state these women were in and I do not want that directed at me. So I say "I'll tell her parents that I saw her leaving with a teenage boy the direction of the quarry. You have to make sure the body is so well hidden it'll never be found." Smiles all around and the babies were all laughing and singing and having a good time. It was beautiful but then I woke up. She woke me up hitting even louder bad notes. It was such a nice dream.

    Sounds like an interesting life, would but that we could magically, swap lives for a day. Just to gain a different, perspective. You know...a mile in his shoes...

    You may need to move to another house.

    I just have to hold out. The landlord planned on evicting them but can't now. One of our covid-19 rules is no evictions. I must be strong and carry on or my mind may very well snap.

    For god's sake man, turn on your cell phone's microphone and then get her on Youtube. How do you think Justin Bieber got started?

    I'd be banned for life. They'd probably ban everyone from here to be safe.

    It looks like Darwin is going to bat for me. This morning I was doing the dishes and I happened to look outside and the boy was hovering around again so she started "singing" and for a flash he reacted like a normal person to it. He recovered quickly but not quick enough for she saw it. I wouldn't bet two cents he'll live to 16.
    Even better, for four hours now she has not sung.

    On a side note. Why do we say we are doing the dishes rather than simply washing them? And another thing. Why do mothers insist on saying to their sons "I'll fix you mister!"? I grew up on a farm with animals and I knew from an early age exactly what it meant to fix an animal. And why is that fixed? It seems to me that should mean broken.
    No I haven't been drinking, maybe I should.

    The neighbor knocked this morning to ask if it would bother me if they installed a sat dish on the roof because of the noise. At that very moment his daughter was in back singing and all the nearby babies crying. How can a parent be that oblivious?

    Perhaps he’s hoping to drown out her singing.
