There is also something enjoyable in the name "Corona"...

Gland - Vaud (Switzerland)

In my opinion we should not be too easily conditioned by certain superficial features like names.

At the same time, as I often repeat to myself, when the situation around us is getting serious, one of the few means we have to face it is keeping a little of humour.

A sound dose of common sense makes us respect all the precautions and safety rules, without useless displays of self-pity.
That's all we can do, keeping always in mind that a lot of people, at present, are in much worse conditions.

My husband and I found a way to exorcise the negative value of a name, neutralizing it with a huge dose of chips (carefully home-made, of course).

By the way this brand of beer makes me remember when I was in California, so many years ago, that it seems to me another life, and I wanted to visit Mexico, but I remained blocked in San Diego.

Anyway this is another story, that— logically—no one of you cares for.

A lot of people drink Corona right out the bottle. I do not know how you can appreciate the beer's flavour that way. Nice to see you using a glass. V

I'm impressed that you made home made chips. I have a whole lot of Corona in my refrigerator. Great thoughts - especially the part about keeping a sense of humor while still being smart. ~V~

A nice bit of self-reflecting homour to add a bit of calmness to our current world-wide dilemma.

Nice shot. I would go for the frites, instead of the Corona. Actually I don't know anyone who lives here who drinks it. Seems it's popular with tourists tough. Names are funny, my grandmother's maiden name was Corona which means crown, my wife's is Del Castillo, which mean "of the castle" and my name means King. A certain pattern there. :)
