I have a hard time finding masks that fit so I will stick with a bandana. I am going to be pissed if I have to wear a mask and people are walking around with their masks pulled down below their nose or if they keep handling their masks and then touching common objects, since that defeats the purpose. |

It's either pull it down under my nose or mow people down since I can't see them through my fogged up glasses. On Tuesday, July 7, 2020 at 3:10:17 PM UTC-5, Hank Rogers wrote: |

If he was sooooo serious the shit-for-brains mayor would not have advocated a march of 10,000+ people just when things were barely starting to get better. You think everybody in those marching, looting, vandalizing crowds were wearing masks? You think those people were automatically protected from the person standing shoulder to shoulder in those crowds because they were wearing a mask?? I've got some lovely oceanfront property you'd be interested in located in Alice Springs. Better hurry up and make me an offer before all the surfers snap it up. Of course, it has lovely ocean breezes. |

Yes, that was stupid, but your president organises mass meetings too. And is disappointed when only a few people show up. he also refuses to wear a face mask. His brother in arms, Bolsonaro of Brazil, now has covid. |

All this setback in >town over a dead thug. I agree. I'm sure there is a lot of racism all over the world and this police man committed a murder. But this is not the time for mass demonstrations or mass anything. |

COPD, asthma, etc. If it's hard to breathe without a mask I can understand it could be more difficult with a mask. I don't mind wearing a mask; the thing about the mask that bugs me is my glasses keep fogging up. :( Jill |

I should have > had this surgery years ago.... It is amazing, isn't it? I've mentioned my Aunt who had been legally blind (not to be confused with totally blind) for years due to juvenile onset diabetes. She had many recurrences of cataracts over the years. The last time she was told she needed cataract surgery she balked. She told the doctor she was tired of having eye surgery. This was when lasic was still a fairly new procedure. The doctor said, "You don't understand, I think I can really help you!" Her friend talked her into the surgery. She called me on the phone afterwards, absolutely thrilled. "Jill! I can SEE! And your Uncle was a liar... he always said I was beautiful." LOL Sadly, she only got to enjoy her newfound eyesight briefly. She died of a heart attack six months later. :( Jill |

I have taken to pulling it down under > my nose though. I wait to put mine on right before I get out of the car to go into a store. I take if off when I'm back in the car and heading home. Yes, the eyeglass fogging thing is annoying as hell. Today it was pouring down rain on top of everything else. 'Tis the rainy season here. It's hard enough to see in a downpour, especially when there are idiots driving grey or dark cars who don't bother to follow the law and turn on their headlights. I'm not going to wear a mask in my car and double the chances of not seeing a car because my glasses are fogged up. Jill |

If there are covid viruses > in your house, it's because you have covid. In the southeast portion of my county Covid-19 is rampant, I do mean rampant. That portion of the county houses a large, LARGE, L.A.R.G.E., portion of immigrants. Eight, ten, twelve, or more live in 2 bedroom apartments. Such close quarters they are going to be passing it amongst their own families and being immigrants they're going to congregate with their friends and family who speak the same language. Gary hasn't a clue how many people live by choice or forced to live in conditions they'd rather not. |

Most of them are "immigrants" of one sort or another. |

Appropos of nothing, there is a communal mailbox like that in the strip mall where I worked at H&R Block last year. The people I worked with (one woman, Estella, had been there 30 years) had no idea we even had a mailbox. All the mail was supposed to be delivered to the larger H&R office on the other side of town. One day someone from the USPS came in and said they were going to re-key all those boxes because they had a new mail carrier taking over that route; how many keys would we need? Estella said "We have a mailbox?" LOL Jill |

Constitutionally we are a nation of laws. 49 states based on English common law, but Louisiana is based on French and Spanish laws.

While that junk mail is delivered for a lower cost than first class mail it is a major source of revenue for the post office and actually subsidizes the cost of real mail. I would say that 80% of the stuff than ends up in my mail box is junk mail, so Canada Post gets something to cover the cost of sending a mail truck down our road 5 days a week instead of relying solely on the 3-4 pieces of actual mail I get each week. |
