How comfortable have you become with leading a virtual life?
Does anyone really know when it will be safe to go to a concert with 10,000 other people in attendance?
As it’s becoming less likely a baseball season will be played this year, what will become of all the empty ballparks?
Do college and pro football stand a chance of getting significant numbers of fannies in the seats should we ever be safely cleared to attend games?
Or will it be a harder sell for stakeholders than anticipated?
These days our public interaction is limited to the time it takes to perform grocery shopping, which includes observing empty shelves where paper products once resided.
The amount of exposure to any potential virus load acquired from grocery shopping does not compare with the three-hour germ bomb our immune systems would endure watching a ballgame with 40,000 other fans in close quarters.
How do team owners and university presidents instill confidence we can enjoy sports en masse again?
Too many questions.
Not enough answers.
Yet it’s ascendingly clear we need to become increasingly comfortable with our virtual lives.
I read where webcams are in short supply.
That’s a sign of the happy hour demand of virtual lifestyle participants.
To save bandwidth, at-home workers have been excused from turning on their laptop cameras (in favor of those who turn on theirs to enjoy quarantinis).
It’s a sign of the times.
Because it’s how we can better stay in touch and remain connected.
Gun sales are up.
Mass shootings are down.
The new normal will not be denied its share of dichotomies.
People like Nick Saban have been forced to learn how to email.
The NFL draft will be done virtually in preparation for a season that may never actually kick-off.
I wonder if landlines for telephones will make a comeback
I didn’t think it could happen but we’ve overburdened the online ordering capabilities of Amazon, eBay, Costco, Wal-Mart and any number of national grocers.
Same day delivery is no longer a given and has sadly transformed into a rarity.
The international community is doing its best to provide toilet paper during American retailer shortages.
Unfortunately, we aren’t buying it as early reviews indicate apprehension over quality.
And so, it goes.
Dogs are getting used to having their humans around all day.
Will separation anxiety rear its ugly head when we are given the all-clear to safely intermingle?
On the bright side, we are most likely in the best position we have ever been concerning television programming choices.
I did just have popcorn again last night amid my concern for those of you partaking in emotional eating.
Personally, I prefer to consume stoically and largely emotion-free.
I do appreciate the ability to support any number of local restaurants by ordering online and picking up delicious meals at their curbsides.
I look forward to walking my dogs more than ever.
I am still not ready to partake in the types of social closeness the Internet provides.
But it’s good to know it’s there once I am.
