    I died.


    It’s kinda funny, but then again kinda not after thinking about it. A few months ago when I went to the hospital with a broken clavicle, my dad told his story of going to the hospital with a broken bone during the polio epidemic. No amount of clean living and healthy vibes was gonna stop that bug.

    In light of the current situation, I think many people have felt a moment or two of schadenfreude.
    Let the machine elves do their work and we'll see what happens.

    And the point?
    In my book still places someone currently in the azzhole category, and someone I have no desire to be on this site. We talk about a no politics site and this stoops way below human decency.

    My point is his original post was far more “azz hole”-ish.

    This is not good news in any way shape or form. Even politically, from either angle. The temptation is to say “it is what it is,” but the humanitarian side of me says I just hope the illness does not progress into serious symptoms.

    I forgot my bandana for my ride this morning and ended up having to use a mask. I did the f/r climb from the Cherry Cyn. entrance to the gun range and realized I had to double back for my helmet.:bang:

    On the plus side-every single person I ran across on the ride had a mask or other face covering.

    I don’t see any need for a mask if I am outside and away from others. Am I wrong? I do not object to masks at all where they can help me or others.

    Just don't breathe for 30 seconds after they pass you. Or as you're passing them, as it may be.

    I just see it as a signal of solidarity or concern for the other people on the trails. If it helps, that's cool too. Doesn't cost me a thing.

    I just have one handy in case I have to pass someone close or other proximity. Otherwise it’s off.

    So, to clarify my comments, I will try to do so non-politically.
    In my opinion, the individual who is the subject of these comments has displayed an high level of callousness regarding the victims of this virus.
    The "It is what it is” is a direct quote regarding the deaths of over 160K Americans. It's not fake news, this comment is real.
    The fact that this individual is now infected and suffering from this virus is reflected in my choice of song. There are many, many ways to express my sentiments, one of my favorites is "Mess with the bull, you're gonna get the horns." Lennon said it a little better.

    Maybe I should have picked a more upbeat song like "Rock you like a hermancain!"
    :facepalm:

    Oh yeah, wear your mask.

    The challenge is, imtbtrails is NOT a politics website that offers member the opportunity to post opinions related to politics. It divides the membership, YET... we have people here that continue to post their political jabs. So what’s it going to take? Me saying stop, or I’ll say stop again? Or do I actually just start axing people from the site?

    You can go say whatever you want on Twitter, Parlor, and Facebook. So go express yourself.
