I remember that Australian, Neighbors, we only saw it when we went on holiday twice a year LOL. Even though we missed hundred episodes, we could still follow!

I could have gone on forever.

I just read Euggypius's latest article, which made me think of Redacted Covid ... which made me think of Transparent Covid.

In an earlier version I had "Kunta Kinta Covid," but i thought that might be Politically Incorrect Covid and they don't really have much Covid in Africa, where Kunta Kinta came from.

I should have added: "PCR Test Covid" ... which is really Every Covid.

In the Cuisine section, I might have added "Low-Carb Covid."

Not sure where it would fit, but one of my sons (25yrs) calls it “The Co-Co”

One of my Brownstone Institute write colleagues, added this excellent name:

You don't include my favorite - "cold vid."

I saw a random comment the other day I think you’ll like:

Judging by the column "likes" metrics so far ... 22 people share it (out of the 3,000 who will open this email.) I don't know if that's enough to quit my Day Job and go out on the stand-up comedian circuit. I wonder if I could make jokes about the Covid response on any Comedy Club stage? That's probably Taboo Covid.

Back in 2020, I found a four-leaf Covid and used it as a talisman to protect me (from a world which went insane that year!).

"Stupid-Is-As-Stupid-Does Covid" is at the top of my list. Was "Climate Covid" in there? Did I miss it?

I love "Climate Covid." That should have been on my list for sure.
