"Life in the Time of Pandemic"
Château Laurier is going into "hibernation". For the first time in its history.

As a comics nerd, I sometimes see some things akin. "Up, up and away" being a minor example.

But.

Trademarking the name of an actual virus?

dewline: Text: Additional Investigation Required (journalism)
Updating my cleverphone apps now that I've got my shopping, banking and newspapers in hand for the day. I'm a bit annoyed at having put off the newspapers as that meant I missed The Globe and Mail but that can't be helped.

Also, only mildly surprised that my preferred bank branch is closed on this particular Saturday, but at least I was able to confirm that I could get my bus pass topped up for next month. Just in case.

Job search question: who here knows anything beyond Wikipedia reports and the company website about a Vertex Venture Holdings company? I got a text message from someone claiming to represent them on my cleverphone asking if I was interested in an online interview. Is this really part of their normal hiring routine?

Annoy Trump ASAP. Learn an Indigenous language. In whole or in parts.
