For restaurants that have to limit their seating to 25% when the rent, the gas, the lights are still running at 100%. I suspect that the limit will soon pass. Our governor is grown tired of us surviving the pandemic.

Here in Florida, they opened up barbershops this week. I drove by the local barber shop this morning. They have a tiny waiting area. There is not six feet between the waiting area and the chair. There were six pickup trucks in the parking lot. The barber is doing a booming business......You can get a haircut to die for.

I am beginning to like the Einstein look. I can go another year without getting a little off the sides.

He can say it as many times as he wants to, all the live-long day. He can levitate while saying so, or pour Quaker State over his head while jerking off with a pair of tweezers while saying so, and it ain't going to change a single fucking thing.

Asshole.

Americans decide when "we're back." Most Americans have little or no discretionary income and even if they did there's no great demand for anything other than essential provisions because in spite of what he says, there's no endpoint in sight.
