    probably nothing special. I was a hermit to begin with. This doesn't really mean anything to me.

    Probably not changing much of my current routine until I see how much of a blow up in numbers there will be once it is lifted.
    When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail." ----- Jack Burton 1986

    The number of infections and deaths will be astronomical. The Commucrat-controlled faux media will see to that.

    The faux media and Commucrats DO NOT want the quarantine lifted and will do all they can to re-impose it IF it's lifted. It has already started....just listen to the "news."

    They probably used their stimulus check to buy them

    I was going to crack wise but apparantly somebody actually did it four years ago

    When Wang Zhijun received his pair of limited edition Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2s in the mail from Chile, he didn’t try them on. Nor did he keep the RMB5,000, Kanye-designed sneakers safe in their box. Instead, the 34-year-old Beijinger sliced the shoes apart and sewed the pieces into a pollution mask.
    ................
    FootwearNews.com described the act as “the sort of thing that would make many sneaker enthusiasts cringe” (the article was titled ‘Chinese Designer Destroys Yeezy Boosts to Make a Face Mask’). But 124 eBay bids later and the new creation was worth RMB34,700 – almost seven times the price paid for the original shoes.

    Nope. Retired.
    YES !!
    Also nope. "Mobility problems".
    Not that I have paid much attention to "Jabba's" edicts yet. I'm just limited by the cowardly back-pedaling of others.

    I took matters into my own hands. It came out ok, I have had worse from supercuts. I even had my wife shave the back of my neck with a real sharp line so it looks like I got an actual haircut, just to be a dick when people see it in public.

    One of my sons is a preacher. He got permission from the mayor to hold services outside in the town parking lot. He uses an FM transmitter that can be heard on RM radio (range about 2 miles), plus all his services are on Facebook, too.

    If the people can't go to church, he'll bring the church to the people. (Obviously, it's a smallish church so the parking lot is sufficient.)

    Good for him ! That's what is called "thinking outside the box".

    Back in the days of crew cuts and "butch wax", we got our hair cut by our mother. My neck was getting "tickled" because mine was so long so I had her give me a little trim the other day as I can't do the back of my head. I got the sideburns and over the ears to give her a "line" to go from ear to ear across the back. As I didn't let her take too much, this will last until the weather gets a little warmer.

    I had to go slow but it came out pretty good, 6 in front 4 on top 1.5 on the sides, faded nice and high up. it makes me wonder what I am paying 20 bucks for.
