I’ll be darned if I’m going to live my life in a cocoon and this ridiculous hysteria that everyone has. If you feel that you want To wear a mask in public and in stores by all means I will honor that I will keep my 6 feet from you I will not try to make you feel uncomfortable if you want to live in a cocoon you go right ahead but don’t criticize me for not feeling uncomfortable going on with my life and not Shaking in my boots that I’m going to get this virus or die from it. Number one I am not afraid of getting it if I happen to get it I feel confident that I will be one of the 98% that will fully recover. Years from now they’re going to look back at this ridiculous hysteria and realize that throughout history we have had serious viruses and never reacted like this and fully recovered. Again I will keep my social distancing I will not make you feel uncomfortable by coming up and hugging you or getting anywhere near you but I will also feel very very comfortable going on with my life and not looking silly driving around by myself in the car with the windows rolled up an air conditioner on with a mask on.

They walk among us
. The restaurants we go to have plenty of space between tables, more than 6 feet. The servers take our orders from at least 6 feet. We alway call before we go to understand their protocols. If they chose not to observe the rules we chose not to go. There are plenty of responsible owners here that want our business. I have had conversations who seem to understand the risks associated with their job, not to them but to us. They can't believe the number of the those over 60 that don't play by the rules and therefore jeopardize their jobs. They have said, they didn't hesitate to close the bars, they won't hesitate to close the restaurants it the numbers continue to climb. So for those that are the medical experts on here that get their degree every day on the internet, when that happens you can thank yourselves. I do agree that driving in the car with a mask on is strange but, how does that effect you?
