A Few Questions

The staff here began a discussion last Friday and the question was.  What is the difference between, politics, the Nightly News, Cable News, Opinion Cable News shows, the Real Housewives of New York and everywhere else, the WWE, scripted TV shows both dramas and sitcoms and Professional Sports?  Discussions went on Friday all day, Saturday until finally on Sunday morning after looking at it from all angles we had our answer, nothing. 

This brings us to our next question and that is.  When do we take the masks off?  The government is never going to tell you to take the masks off, like ever.  You’re going to have to do this on you own.  So, we did a survey in NYC on Saturday.  We took a break from our discussion of question number one.  And, this is a very scientific survey, as it’s based on actual, verifiable numbers.  We passed a 100 people on the street in Manhattan and the Bronx and counted all the way.  We found that 17 people were not wearing masks at all.  Then another 14 had masks on but the mask was pulled down under their chin.  Just like Dr. Fauci at the ballpark.  Then there were 4 people with masks that were sort of askew.  One guy had turban like get up that only blocked half his mouth and one of his nostrils and a three other people had bandannas over their faces like they were going to rob the next Stagecoach.  The bandannas are completely useless when combating the Kung Flu, so we concluded that 35% of the people at the present time are not wearing masks.  Since these are actual, verifiable numbers this allows us to make scientific and accurate projections and here they are.  By the middle of August, 52.5% of the people will not be wearing masks.  By the middle of September 75% of the people will not be wearing masks.  And by the end of October 95% of the people will not be wearing masks.  The last 5% will never take the masks off.  Some will be buried with them still on. 

Which brings us to our last question, what do the masks do?  If you’re wearing the mask and someone with the Kung Flu gets within six feet of you, the mask won’t help.  If you have the Kung Flu, wearing the mask might help contain the virus.  But if you have the Kung Flu, you’re probably, in the ICU on a ventilator, regretting all the things you didn’t do and hoping for one more chance.  You’re not out and about breathing on people.  So, the answer to this last question is, not much. 

We hope you enjoyed your weekend.  Obviously, we didn’t enjoy ours.
