I don’t give a schit if folks wear masks. It’s beyond silly at this point.

Mandates are another matter entirely.

Cruising.




Did you move from Washington to South Carolina?

I did.

I'm almost to Bozeman MT. Have crossed 8 states if my home state of Louisiana is counted. 1890 miles so far. Only one damn place required a mask, the Little Bighorn Battlefield Visitors Center. Looks to me like west of the Mississippi River people are through with masks and not worrying about the Corona 19. I guess Fauci and Gates are going to have to juice up another virus. Maybe airborne rabies?

Maybe that's why I saw a fellow, in a UTV, 3 miles out in the pasture, wearing one while pushing a couple of bulls.

I still see them driving by themselves wearing masks. I can't wrap my brain around it.

Back in the Spring of 2021 we still had mask mandates for commercial establishments. It had been about a year and my guys inside wouldn't wear masks and I wasn't going to make them wear them either. However, I did try to get them to wear them if the customers were wearing them and we didn't know them. I didn't want to get in trouble with the health dept. You never know what .gov might do. About 80% of our customers were not wearing them, so I didn't worry too much.

One day we had a showroom full of people and most people were not wearing masks. From my office, I hear a lady say, "Wow, it must be nice not to have to wear a mask at work". After she was done inside, I see her walking out to the stone yard and she's double masked. She got her stuff and got in her car, double masked, and drives off. 15 minutes later I get a call from the county health department threatening to fine me. I had a long talk with the guy and he explained that he was only doing his job and that he had to do so until the governor lifted the mandate. He didn't fine me, but just gave me a verbal warning. It was a $5000.00 fine. Even after the incident, I still had a hard time getting these guys to mask up. They were pretty good though if we had customers that we didn't know and were wearing them.

I’m extremely hard of hearing and wear hearing aids. Even with the aids I still have a difficult time trying cypher what is being said through a mask, especially the voices of women. I need to see their lips and face.

When I go to the Dr everyone is wearing a mask, I understand very little of what is being said. When they ask me questions, I usually just stare at them and shake my head. They repeat, move closer and repeat, no response from me. They finally get it, pull their mask down so we can converse.

When my doctor enters the room, he automatically pulls his mask down as he knows I won’t talk to him through one.


Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Yeah, one of my guys is hard of hearing and won't wear his hearing aids. He has a tough time understanding people who are wearing a mask. It's funny because he'll cop an attitude and tell them to take it off. We get a kick out of it and we tell him that he's just a cranky old guy. laugh

Good for you.

PS- that was a long hike.

Same here.

Last Dec I saw a guy in Cancun wearing one while he was swimming in the ocean alone. Also, a lib mom double masked her kids with face shields before they got on the plane. She gave me a nasty look while I snapchatted her. Don't think she liked my mask under my chin.

No one wore a mask 😷 before the scamdemic even people with health issues. They don’t do anything.
