WW1 Limerick: I have a little bird her name isΒ  Enza. I opened the window and in flu Enza.Β  Sad News:

Hello CREW… πŸ’˜ 😷                                           

     GOOD NEWS:   No reports of  CHS Alumni  with Corona.

Hummm  that strange, have a six pack in teepee :-).
 
Corona virus tracking sites:
 
        covid-19  Florida City by City  –  Cocoa 4   Rock 3   M.I. 3   C.B. 3
 
       covid-19  Florida County by County    –   Brevard  72    .00012%

 

The population of Brevard County Fl     approx. 600,000.
     covid-19 cases in Brevard  72  =  .00012%   very low.
UNLESS  it  is  YOU!
  Stay at home and wash your hands!
 
Worsteverflupandemic:😲
The great influenza pandemic of 1918-19, called Spanish Flu,
caused about 50 million deaths worldwide;  far more than
deaths from combat casualties in World War One  (1914-18). 
In fact, it may have killed  3% –  6%  of the global population.
 
WW1 Limerick:    I have a little bird her name is  Enza. 
                        I opened the window and    in flu Enza. 
 
Sad News:
   Classmate say he have strong urge to…     wallow in mud.
  Medicine Man say…    Ugh!  He have Swine Flu.

April 26     Today is National  πŸ₯¨  Pretzel Day
     Believed to be world’s oldest snack. 610AD, France.
        Monks baked strips of dough into the shape of a

Took a long time to find something to go with beer.
  Earliest evidence of beer, made from barley. 3500-3100 BC.
 
What?  Millions of gallons of BEER going stale.
                Might be time for  CHS TIGERS to pick up
 the pace and save the BEER industry!  😁
 
Gas prices falling.  Use this site to check the prices
