This weekend we went to see our parents in the airy state of PA. I say airy, because of the space.  It’s almost like six feet was always too close for the people of Pennsylvania.

Everywhere I looked, I saw people with the same expression on their face. What was it?Confusion? Numb bewilderment? It’s almost as if we got wiped out by the junk food virus.

I’m not making claims about Pennsylvanians, mind you.  I see the same look in the eyes of my Marylanders and my New Yorkers. I see it on the TV people. I hear it in the voices of the NPR reporters.
