Default Kookaburras, Covid and Sphereans in LUPO's Autumn 20 issue

Lighten Up Online September 2020 is now up and running or galloping with a band of Eratosphere jockeys and jokers participating, namely Damian Balassone, Melissa Balmain, Jerome Betts, Terese Coe, Martin Elster, Daniel Galef, Max Goodman, Robin Helweg-Larsen, Jean L. Kreiling, Susan McLean, Bruce McGuffin, Martin Parker, Ed Shacklee, George Simmers, Gail White and new members Karen Greenbaum-Maya and Julia Griffin.

Their topics include bears, bores, causation, coronavirus, finches, marriage, non-jingles, pens, PPE, rhinoceroses, strippers, and T.S. Eliot. (Thank goodness for that Oxford comma, if it is one.) Not to mention horses, Pegasus and the Equinox.

Thanks, Melissa, and for your non-rhyming jingle also. I should have put Damian’s kookaburras in the list instead of the title. Appropriately enough, in the light of his parody, they apparently snap up cucarachas as well as deterring snakes.
