What a great story for a Monday!
Here in north Flanly time I’ve been wearing a mask is in a store....and that’s been the norm for many months. A lot of people here look at these crazy liberal states and we just shake our heads and wonder how people can allow themselves to be controlled that way. IMO we are truly blessed to have leadership at the state level that actually is protecting us and our rights and freedoms.
Florida......stupid phone
Stopped reading right there!
My best friend was recently in Hilton Head and same deal there.
Sign on the door of a small local business:
WE WEAR MASKS, SO YOU WON’T HAVE TO...................
In times of stress and uncertainty you find out various things about people. It gives you data.
It is a virus it spreads...masks only slow it and prolong it...It would be nice if the fast food places would open for indoor seating in Florida..must be a slip and fall lawyer thing...I will only go to places I can eat in..
I think the younger people are more scared than old people...
I'm susceptible to it and I combat it by staying physically active with volleyball, racquetball and just going to the gym.
However, everything is shut down here and I recently had major shoulder surgery so those activities wouldn't be available to me anyway. This is going to be a very, very tough winter for not only me, but other single seniors throughout the state.......
You need to get outside for an hour a day.
Sometimes in Jan and Feb it’s tough but pays huge dividends.
It was like she escaped from east Berlin to free west Berlin.
Or from North Korea to South Korea.
We need to be human. The occasional mask or hard few days are ok. But a lifestyle of germophobia destroys our mental health.
We can also keep driving if mobs surround our cars and we feel threatened... and we have ZERO state income tax.Conservatives are welcome in Florida. Consider the possibilities...
Recently ate at a Nevada casino buffet. Cashier had a full-coverage mask and requested that I cover my nose (usually wear it on chin or only cover mouth). Hands me the receipt, which I hand to the masked seating server. She declines, saying "It's for our safety." and shows us to our table - which is 15 feet from where she works and is full of unmasked people.
The buffet is one-sided and the server fills your plate as directed. He also has a full mask on and DEMANDS that I cover my nose. I tell him "It's been EIGHT FRIGGING MONTHS and they haven't worked, but they're gonna work today?" He gets all hissy and starts "IT'S THE RULES! IT'S THE RULES!" and I get a couple of looks. He is also 15 feet from the room full of unmasked people.
I won't go there for a while.
I went to the local bar in Juno Beach the other night for some wings and Yuengs. Forgot my mask so I pulled my t-shirt up over my face to enter. The girls just laughed and poured me a lager as I sat down at the bar next to other freedom-loving Floridians.
DeSantis 2024!
Compare and contrast free Red states with Democrat totalitarian states.
“I think the younger people are more scared than old people...”
This isn’t the first end of the world I’ve seen.
