I panicked when I got home just after 7PM EST and wanted to remain in the game. I thank everyone for their condolences, they are very much appreciated.  My Mom was 97, it was time for her to go, but still your Mom, we all know what goes on even when you lose them when they are old.
My friend Andy had just turned 63 and was a non smoker who died of lung cancer.  We had been estranged because of his partner for the last several years. I didn't know he was sick and they never told me he passed several weeks back.  Very sad, I did want to have the opportunity to say goodbye to my closest lifelong male friend.
I guess with these losses and the uncertainty of the coronavirus outbreak, that it is going to take a huge amount of strength to face the future.  I work in a travel related business and I have already seen many friends have their jobs shut down until this fire burns out.  I wish all of you the very best and keep washing your hands (constantly).

Results for Round 22:


hockeyfan1        14  Winner
Hobbes                13
WAYNEINIONA      13
Highlander            13

Well, hockeyfan1 wins by a point.   This was a very close round with everyone tied in the same number of points.  That also means very little progress in terms of closing the gap on the leaderboard.  Hobbes is still the front-runner while we?re all trying in vain to catch up.  Nevertheless, good try guys!
