Something Positive?

Dear Dingo:
I am worried about mental health. People are anxious, grumpy and depressed. Is there anything, anything positive out there?

Answer:
Here are some glimmers:

1) People will never, ever take toilet paper for granted again. Toilet paper = gold. In fact, our future economy will be based on the toilet paper standard.

2) Due to the rise in video conferencing, the textile industry is now only making tops. We can look forward to a completely pantsless society. There is an old Eastern European saying: "those without pants, have no worries". Interpret that as you want.

3) Corona gardens. A boom in gardening is underway. Increasng compost deliveries and seed catalogs. People previously unaware that rakes even existed, are becoming avid gardening enthusiasts.  This however, is an activity for which I recommend wearing pants.
