A “Cannonball Run” for the Economy?
11th April 2020
I’m tempted to suggest that the feel-good news story of the week is “UN To Run Out of Money by End of Month, Secretary General Warns.” Aww, wouldn’t that be a shame.
But no, by far the the best stand-up-and-cheer-for-‘Murica story this week is “Team Allegedly Sets New ‘Cannonball Run’ Record on Empty Highways During Coronavirus Lockdown.” Now that’s making the best of the bad situation, American-style! Me, I’m getting three weeks to the gallon on my car right now, and so admire and envy the lust for speed on the open road.
