The 2nd Wave is Coming [View all]

We're doomed. I just got back from the West End of Richmond, VA. I was masked, socially distant, all that stuff. In the plaza I was shopping in, here's what I saw: Asian Massage Parlor was open (how do you socially distance a massage?), saw a patron go in, unmasked. The hair and nail salon that advertises that they also have wine: two people going in, both unmasked. The bagel place: 11 people went in and out (including me); 3 were masked. The elderly couple in the handicapped parking spot; no masks. The family of four, all in American flag shirts with two kids under 3 in an SUV with Glock and HK stickers on the back; no masks. The 2nd wave is going to hit us so hard...
