"Well James, so far which type of crisis is most to your liking, pandemic or systemic racism and police brutality?"

"That's a tough choice Bob! The racist policing & black lives matter thing came on quick and unexpectedly though of course it's been building for a very long time. Too long. It is a behavioral issue from within our individual and collective psyches. Solving it should be within our reach. The pandemic on the other hand is an external threat from the indifferent universe and there likely no solution in an ultimate sense. It is part of the growing Slow Crisis movement, which we're sure to see more of in the coming decade. Dare I say decades? ha ha"

"ha ha"

"I have to say Bob, I feel like I have a case of Crisis Blueballs."

"I know what you mean James! Sort of like I've been dry humping a jackhammer. Or it me."

"Somehow we're going to have to get off ...the subject, Bob."

"We're going to pause for an intermission folks, this is James and this is been James and Bob."
