A Little Bit of Awesome: 3/16/2020 Edition

People in Spain stood at their windows, and on balconies the other night, and gave a huge round of applause to all the healthcare workers who’ve been working so hard.


Videos of people in Italy SINGING together from their balconies went viral this weekend. The best one is from Siena, Italy, where they sang a popular song about how proud they are of their hometown.


A video has been making the rounds of a teacher showing her students the importance of soap. She used ground pepper to represent a virus, and then put the pepper in a bowl of water. She had a student dip a finger into the “virus water.” The pepper flakes didn’t move, but they DID stick to the girl’s finger, so she had the girl dip her finger in soapy water to clean it off. Then the girl put her soapy finger into the “virus water” . . . and this time the pepper spread out to the opposite sides of the dish, and her finger had no “virus” on it.

Then there’s this guy practicing social distancing.
