Cody is an awesome  "nom de plume.", for a young aspiring writer such as myself.

Young as far as writing 📝 goes, but not young age-wise.

Here is a recent picture of me.

As you can see the years are marching on...but not my enthusiasm.

 

Plebware After Corona Virus

 Being a severe online blogger, I have no intention of quitting.

Yes, funds are scarce, but maybe when I get my Government Pension, things might be different.

Therefore next year will be:

• A definite game changer.
• A new era for Plebware.
• A more active period.

Sadly my old Samsung S3 Mini died on me.
But was blessed by an old army mate and a fellow Christian brother.
who sponsored me with Cash to acquire a new phone.

Here on the right is a screenshot, of the new phone.

A real improvement, but still 4 or five years behind,
as far as Cellular technology is concerned.

Never mind that my PC is at least 10 years behind the times.

Given the time and effort, I put in since 1999.
I have no intention of quitting now!

I humbly apologise for my being scarce, that will change!

2021 - 2022

 Plebware™2021 Review - Vision 2022

After two years of unemployment, having to care for a dear friend who had a stroke, and the sudden luck of finding a part-time job, then a near burnout situation for Otto left him offline for most of the year

Even Juelz Otto's Side-Kick was Despondent.

It was a rather dismal year for Plebware, as a result, most online activities were suspended. Otto's Partner and sidekick Juelz was also very much demotivated and practically depressed.

Neither Juelz nor Otto had much energy as a result could not achieve pretty much anything on their computers, let alone attempt doing any online activities.

2022 will be a better year, or at least that is our thinking...

Norovirus 2021

 It is a few months down the line. Not much has changed, except Covid-19. Is still holding our lives to ransom. Now to fear! We are a hardy bunch.

We have just survived another bug a bag case of a stomach bug.

Possibly Novovirus, Norovirus, sometimes referred to as the winter vomiting bug, is the most common cause of gastroenteritis. Infection is characterized by non-bloody diarrhoea, vomiting, and stomach pain. Fever or headaches may also occur. Symptoms usually develop 12 to 48 hours after being exposed, and recovery typically occurs within 1 to 3 days.

Norovirus results in about 685 million cases of disease and 200,000 deaths globally a year. It is common both in the developed and developing world. Those under the age of five are most often affected, and in this group, it results in about 50,000 deaths in the developing world. Norovirus infections occur more commonly during the winter months. It often occurs in outbreaks, especially among those living in close quarters. In the United States, it is the cause of about half of all foodborne disease outbreaks. The virus is named after the city of Norwalk, Ohio, where an outbreak occurred in 1968.

In the place where we stay, 8 of us adults share a small communal bathroom, and a single toilet, so needless to say, 7 of us contracted it within three days of the first case, fortunately non of us died, even though I am certain most of us wish for death. lol!

Vomiting, in particular, transmits infection effectively and appears to allow airborne transmission. In one incident, a person who vomited spread the infection across a restaurant, suggesting that many unexplained cases of food poisoning may have their source in vomit. In December 1998, 126 people were dining at six tables; one woman vomited onto the floor. Staff quickly cleaned up, and people continued eating. Three days later others started falling ill; 52 people reported a range of symptoms, from fever and nausea to vomiting and diarrhoea. The cause was not immediately identified. Researchers plotted the seating arrangement: more than 90% of the people at the same table as the sick woman later reported becoming ill. There was a direct correlation between the risk of infection of people at other tables and how close they were to the sick woman. More than 70% of the diners at an adjacent table fell ill; at a table on the other side of the restaurant, the infection rate was still 25%. The outbreak was attributed to a Norwalk-like virus (norovirus). Other cases of transmission by vomit were later identified.

Covid 19 Secondary Effects On Life.

What Is The Real Effect Of Covert 19 On Us As A People

• Emotionally
• Financially
• Physically
• Spiritually

Kicking The Dog While It Is Down, seems like fun;

Until You Accidentally Kick The Cub, While The Lion And Lamb:

Busy Standing Guard Over It?

Oops! or Oh! No!

Good thing, that we Christians are taught, by our Lord Himself.

To Turn The Other Cheek, just look at what Facebook has become!

It used to be a decent Social Network, now it is a mess.

But Before We Point Fingers, Let's First See Who's Fault It Is? 

For starters, I have long given up on 'Taking Profile Pictures Serious'

Especially once you discover: men who are actually women, the woman who think they are men when old people think they are young, people who think they are are objects, others who are masquerading as 'Famous People' - Last time I checked, I believe it was not good practice to masquerade as something you are not, neither do I see it encouraged in Facebook's Policies - On the contrary, Facebook Frowns upon it! Gladly we can't Blame Facebook for Covert 19.

Covid 19 has dramatic impacted our lives in some way it has become a major factor in our lives, and contrary to popular belief is even abused by many people in power, some are turning it into a tool to impose hidden agendas, or at least so it appears tome as well as many of the masses.

The facts are it has disrupted our lives like nothing ever has.

It has touched us Emotionally, Financially, Physically as well as Spiritually.

One thing is certain it has caused too many negative responses.

I have experienced weight gain.

Loss of work, and experienced extreme hardship in finding work.

Being a socialite staying away from people has also made my life hell.

Not being able to function normally as a Church has also grieved me tremendously, one thing I a happy about is the fact that all the negativity about it has not made me bitter or cynical, I am weary about disinformation or particularly withheld information.
