Thanks, I am almost over it. That Paxlovid is amazing.

But I never had it very bad, it was just like a mild cold.

Knock on wood.

Both of my son in laws had/have it and one was super sick for two weeks and the other is sick.

My younger daughter also has it and she got pretty sick.

Not sure why an old man like me did so much better?/

Maybe 30 years of green tea, turmeric and curcumin-lol?

In each dose which pill tastes bad? The white ritonavir tablet of the two orange nirmatrelvir tablets.

They stay really good. What I liked about it was the sympathetic characters which I thought were cast perfectly.

I am on #8 and it is as cute and uplifting as all of them.

In this one they emphasize the value of beauty and friendship over money and power and should be in the law e.g. a nice community, and that is such a good lesson for all of us.

You might want to watch Mr Sunshine which I wish had gotten the academy award instead of Parasite.

It has a great story and the most interesting characters I have ever seen.

It takes place in Korea at the turn of the century when Japan, China, US, Russia and others were all vying for power and they were all metamorphosing to the modern age of both technology and cultures norms and mores.

One nobleman said:" I just value a sunny day, or something like that, and in another part a noble woman asks:" what is this thing called love?".

Can we do it together?

An amazing movie. It has a pretty rough part early on you might want to skip of them beating a slave, but most of it is tolerable.

Hi Koan, we watched the first episode and enjoyed it. A charming production. Will be watching more of it later.
Hope you get loose from Covid soon....

Keep watching Woo. I just finished episode 8 and texted my daughter who is also watching it that it knocked my socks off and made my day.

I have not enjoyed a series like this since Queens Gambit.

So wise!
