A lighter take on the news... a blog about personal observations on life as it unfolds, the good (rave), the bad (rant) and the in between (ravant).

A look at the news
A boy in Australia is being bullied for having the name 'Corona'. Now, I don't mean to be unkind but I am surprised that kids have only just started bullying him.
I would've thought that a boy named Corona would have the same level of bullying as a boy named Sue. What were his parents thinking?
I can only imagine that he was conceived after one too many Coronas and they thought it was a good idea to remind him of that, every single day of his life.
Now, to make matters worse, Tom Hanks has befriended him with the catch phrase that starts all meaningful friendships, 'You've Got a Friend in Me'.
I think Mr Hanks is too nice a guy and is probably of the age where he has forgotten the psyche of school bullies. Poor Corona the boy, doesn't stand a chance now. He's probably going to have to change schools...and his name.
After suggesting that an injection of disinfectant might be a good idea to treat Coronavirus, the tangerine toddler found himself up the proverbial creek without a paddle.
He used his tiny hands to back paddle furiously and whilst doing so, came to the short lived decision to press pause on these press not-so-briefings.
Unsurprisingly, he unpaused the button about 24 hours later. When asked how his numero Un friend from North Korea was, he simpered, turned a deeper shade of orange, and suggested that he was privy to that information but was not allowed to say anything.
You might have seen a video released by the US Navy, regarding an unidentified flying object; pic below.
They may think it's an unidentified object but if you look carefully, you will see that it's a pig attempting to fly when it heard what Trump said about being discreet.
I am now going to do, what Trump does best. I am going to wonder out loud and make outrageous suggestions. So, I wonder if the North Korean leader is actually trying to cheer us all up with a new game.
Maybe he is trying to replace Where's Wally? with Where's Kimmy? After all, where names are concerned, it's the same difference.
If that is true, the only fly in the ointment will be Donny who claims to know Kimmy's secret and if Donny spills the beans on Kimmy's location and spoils the game, Kimmy might get apoplectic with Donny.
Everyone knows that Donny gets apoplectic even when there is nothing to get apoplectic about, so he will definitely get apoplectic right back at Kimmy and the whole world will be petrified and forget about Corona, except Tom Hanks, who keeps his word and has promised Corona that he has a friend in him.
Until next time, try and keep it light and stay safe.
