The Elections in Europe are pretty easy, cut and dried, everybody votes and they get the results fast. But not in the US, we are a third rate country. The entire world knew that Biden won by November 5th. The American public was officially notified by November 15th. Something about the official rules or something. But of course we have Trump and he is not about to accept anything from anyone because he knows how his crooks operate. Spent over 100 million dollars to screw up the works denying the loss and blaming everyone else. Finally on December 14th the Electoral College declared Biden the winner. Should be over? Hah. Trump is still trying to goof up the works. Yogi Berra quote, "It ain't over 'til it's over."

“Social dancers believe that hope is the power of being cheerful in

circumstances that we know may be a bit difficult.”

The Trump Pandemic is still out of control in the entire US. None of the other countries are in as bad a condition as we are. Trump screwed it from the very beginning, he was pushing snake oils. And he will not do anything anymore. From all the other countries and their relative successes we know of several things we have not done in the US. Testing on some regular basis and washing your hands often. Wearing masks and having a respect for social distance. Trumpanzees do not do any of this and they contaminate everyone else. We are getting better in Hawaii but still too much control by Trumpanzees.

In our dancing, most people are learning very well. There has been more acceptance of wearing masks and that is a big help. Most dancers realize that six feet of social distance is fine but seven, mo bettah. And if you are in anything that might be a Trumpanzee environment, TEN FEET IS MO BETTAH YET. Washing the hands is not so evident but some people carry sanitizers. If the business rules are tightened up we can come out of it. No tourists from the Mainland. From Taiwan, New Zealand, fine.

we fully understand that we can only do this - one time around."
