A episode of the current season of the UK TV show QI put forward the following: When the Vikings invaded in the 11th century, English women found them attractive because they washed more often than the native British men. The Vikings tended to come without women, so they married English women, upsetting the locals. One monk, John of Wallingford, claimed that Danes cheated by washing. He wrote: "The Danes made themselves too acceptable to English women by their elegant manners and their care of their person. They combed their hair daily and took a bath every Saturday, and even changed their clothes frequently, be which means they undermined the chastity of the wives." Thus there is a theory that all of that stories about Vikings raping and pillaging were written by Englishmen whose wives were taken by more attractive Danes. I must remember to have a bath on Saturday to make myself irresistible to women.

In a few weeks here in Ohio people 65 and older and people of any age that have debilitating diseases can set up an appt to get one if the covid-19 vaccines. Would be nice if things go smoothly that everyone can get the vaccine by late spring early summer.

My wife just found out that the hospital where she works is going to quickly convert their intensive care unit to an all covid unit because they just can't handle all the cases anymore where they currently are. This means she is going to have to wear one of those space suits all day and most of her work days are 12 hour shifts. I keep encouraging her to check into retirement. She has 41 years there. She likes her job though.....but not lately as much as before covid.

When our last president restricted travel he was called a racict and xenophobe by the media. Now that our new president is restricting travel he is called a hero by the media.

Covid finally struck at the wife's work, one person confirmed 2nd waiting for the test results. She's now doing 3 people's jobs as they don't want to call any backup in in case the rest of the crew is also infected and just don't know it yet. They would just have everyone tested but due to a major jump in testing before Thanksgiving to travel, tests are hard to come by here.
