Film sequels can be very disappointing. I watched that 'Rocky Horror Picture Show' and Sylvester Stallone's not even in it...

The scene is a shack in Tenessee in the 1950s. Elmer and Louise-May are listening to an evangelist on the radio.

The evangelist is extolling the virtues of belief

"and Jeessus sayed, "Bring me your sick and afflicted and I will heal them."
"Hallelujah, the radio audience reply"

And so on until, reaching his crescendo, the preacher invites the sick to come forward and place one hand on the radio and the other on their affliction.

Elmer stands up, places his right hand on the radio and his left on his crotch.

"Elmer," says Louise-May, "the preacher's healing the sick, he ain't raising the dead!"

If you are unable to get home covid test kits I can recommend the following alternative:
Open a can or bottle of beer - can you smell it?
If you can smell it pour beer into glass and drink some.
If you can taste it you have a negative test result.
Drink the remainder of the beer to minimise wastage.
Repeat the test as required.
You may need to repeat on a daily basis if you wake up in the morning with any covid symptoms like a headache.
