Apr 2020

(Me in my mask). He travels all over the place and has various health issues, so really glad he's not sick (knock on wood). Half the barns he goes to have self-isolated to where even he isn't allowed.

Anyway, he was telling me that a lot of people he's talking to on the East coast HATE BIDEN. Many are Bernie people, but not all. He had no ideas on the why, and I am completely puzzled. Thoughts?

He also told me a good place to get sterilizing wipes are lab supply places. They look like baby wipes, but have alcohol in them. The labs use them to decontaminate surfaces. Pretty strong though.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
