Someone asked me for a business card last week. It took some searching, but I finally found one that was faded, wrinkled and dog-eared, hidden in my wallet where it was growing mold. With all the viruses and bacteria around, I should have sanitized it. Who knows what kind of outbreak it might cause.
I’ve reached the point in life where I don’t like to hand out business cards because I don’t want people bothering me. Nevertheless, I still have something to offer society, and a business card lets me stay in the game, so from time to time I pawn one off even though it looks like a historic artifact that survived the Great Recession.

HARTFORD — Two shootings within hours of one another Tuesday afternoon left two people with non-life-threatening injuries in what police believe are unrelated incidents.
The first shooting was reported around 1:53 p.m. when Hartford patrol officers responded to the 300 block of Enfield Street after the city’s ShotSpotter system registered gunfire, according to Lt. Aaron Boisvert.
“While officers were on scene, an area hospital reported a gunshot victim, who was transported privately, arriving for treatment,” Boisvert said.
The male victim appeared to have a gunshot wound to his ankle. He was listed in stable condition, according to police.

During the COVID lockdown, I was so stressed — along with two-thirds of America — that I developed gastritis. I tried everything to cure it, including deep breathing, shallow breathing, meditation, contemplation, cabbage juice, kefir, Prilosec and a bunch of other treatments I never heard of or want to hear about again. Did I mention hot baths in lavender Epsom salt?
