I see dead people

Famous phrase that made 'The Sixth Sense' a hit movie 20 years ago.

I was reminded of that after I started seeing things myself.

Due to the covid no less.

Below are some examples of what I see ....


  • Distant mountain peaks hitherto hidden behind smog
  • People walking at all odd hours, of all walks of life, of all ages and ethnicities 
  • Open roads
  • Long lines at stores to buy essentials

  • People walking with masks on
  • More birds in the trees (that could be me just hallucinating) 


  • Media repeating itself each night (actually that seems to be in line with what most networks do - just that now every third word is Covid)
  • People Zooming (more in cyberspace than in their cars) 
  • Acts of kindness
  • More art (glue and glitter to chalk and paint with the cars, roads and driveways as canvas)
  • Price gouging
  • More Amazon delivery trucks
  • Myself writing more (if you call this writing)!

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...
