* Masking has and always will be the most ridiculous process of the neverending pandemic. I have a business degree, basic common sense, and the ability to use a search engine, so here's what I know about masks.....
- cloth, bandanas, clear face shields, and neck gaiters have never worked. because science. there's a reason your surgeon doesn't wear them.
- n-95s (which, fyi the vaunted cdc urges ordinary humans NOT to wear
CLICK HERE) and tri-fold surgical masks work very well, but only when worn properly. because science. unless you're following all proper procedures in wearing these, you're not doing it right. FYI: if you have either of these, you're not doing it right. unless you properly fit them over your freshly shaved face and change them out frequently. which you don't.
If you're so gd concerned, then YOU wear one. Quit worrying about me.
* While we're at it, here's some great guidance from the vaunted CDC on wearing protective rubber gloves:

So the next time you walk into Subway and the toothless high school dropout making your footlong is behind the plexiglass wiping his nose, handling cash, swiping his Cricket phone, pushing his greasy *** hair back behind his dirty ears, and sneezing into his clenched fist, just remember.....
GLOVE UP! SAVE LIVES! GLOVES WORK!
* There is no more pointless business transaction in the United States than the notary signature. I think the last step before you're approved for your stamp is to insist on protecting that baby like you've got the nuclear launch codes.
* Sold a car, and now we're down to a 1-vehicle family. Just let go of a 10 year-old Honda Civic with no a/c and the front bumper falling off. 5 1/2 years and 80,000 miles and the thing dropped $4200 in value. Very happy with that transaction.
* Bowl games are very much on a case-by-case basis. The '06 Music City Bowl is one of the most hyped UK sporting events of my lifetime, whereas the '11 BBBBBBBVA Compass Bowl in Joker's second year seemed more like a nuisance. We've been very fortunate in this most recent history ('06-present) that most of our bowl games were wins and most of them were very warmly received by the fans.
* I guess it's a state-by-state deal, but I've gotten two oil changes this week.
- $85
- 1+ hour
- required to get out of your car and sit in the waiting room
Like what in the actual F. This isn't communist China. Get me in and out in minutes, and I want to sit in the car the entire < 10-minute process.
* Klay Thompson makes a lot of money so he's never allowed to complain about anything ever for any reason imho.
* I know hipsters take a lot of heat here in GYERO, but I'll always support their dirty little community.
- coffee shops
- book stores
- breweries
- gentrification
Big fan. They do way more good than harm.
