That’s a lot of television I will be watching.

 I always watch a lot of Olympics, but have a special interest this year as
my son was supposed to be in Japan this year (originally scheduled to
arrive in August of 2020). He is a long time fan of Japanese culture, and
reached a long time gal of being accepted into the JET program to teach
high school in Japan.

Every 2-3 months this year we got a message from the Japanese government
that his entry to Japan had been delayed. In January we thought he was
about 2 weeks from leaving until they delayed it again. It has been
heartbreaking for him, and his parents.

It has been clear for a long time that the Japanese government was both
obsessed with the Olympics, and incompetently managing the pandemic.
