Las Calaveras 2020 being released.  More expensive and lower production volume, sheesh.

Now that it seems everyone understands the importance of wearing masks to prevent COVID spread, the Gov. of Georgia has banned cities from requiring masks.  Is there any wonder this thing is out of control?
Exactly!!!   :-\

In other news, AC has already kicked on today, so it might be another muggy day ahead. But there's rain in the forecast, so let's hope it actually happens this time.
Might be?  Already 80 degrees, going up only 10 degrees or so, but humidity creeping back in.

Well, yeah, might be. Heat doesn't necessarily equal mugginess. But we'll see, maybe if it does rain, it'll cut that down a bit.

They are not predicting any rain in the foreseeable future but it is gray as hell out there. In the meantime, it has cooled off significantly so I turned the a/c off temporarily to give it a rest. Otherwise, I keep raising the temp but the darn thing still seems to be turning itself on. And it feels fine in here.

I woke up with this pounding headache and it doesn't seem to be going away. Is that a COVID symptom?
Yes, actually.  Any gastrointestinal distress?

Always! But I'll have turkey egg and cheese on a croissant now and that should take care of it. I'll only worry if I can't taste it.

The only thing in the world more sensitive than a woman trying on new pants is the thermometer in the house.

Indeed, she is awfully fickle.

The most important thing is to check for fever.
I was at my sons' baseball game last evening (the social distancing is in place but I'm not sure how effective it is here).

Anyhoo, one of the coaches' wife (also my sons' teacher) mentions that she had it early on and never got a fever. She was recently tested positive for the antibodies too.

So who knows?
There's so much we still don't know about it. But you know, it's just like the flu. Or a hoax. Or hidden in 5G towers.
And millions are going to die.  And millions more if we don't wear masks and inform on our neighbors. Oh, and remove statues.

Well, to be perfectly scientific about it, there is no evidence yet that wearing masks cuts infection rates for COVID-19, nor for whom.  Inductive reasoning suggests it likely will, under the right circumstances, but there's no evidence.

People like to drone on about doctors and nurses wearing masks as if that's just the very pinnacle of logic.  But there is a protocol for medical professionals wearing masks, without which the mask not only fails to protect against infection, it in fact becomes a vector for it. Most people have no idea what the protocol is.

And as for your average bandanna protecting you or anyone else?  Forget it.
