To the Editor:

Here we are, in a countdown to the climatic part of our summer annual rituals. But … it’s not the same. There is a lack of the electric buzz in the air on a Saturday night. The ever-looming silence of no live music is pervasive. Then there’s our constant worry of impending doom on various fronts: economic, racial, physical and political.

Seems the impact of 2020 (a number extremely meaningful in many theological predictions) has come to fruition. This is a year that will not be soon forgotten.
