But the CDC is thinking about several hundreds of millions. So a .02% chance of transmission may be acceptable to you. It translates to 67,000 people from the CDC perspective. That's one way of looking at it. Thank you. I see your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which of the CDCs other guidelines are also similarly "quite silly"? I have adhered to every other CDC guidance with the exception of masking outdoors when I'm no where near anyone. I have never been anywhere near a crowd outdoors so, in my mind, I have kept myself safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is another one thing you might enjoy if you love posting on here especially since you are from new york or close to new york and you would probably have a lot of stories to tell the younger members of the group who are in their 60s, 50s or younger about the nightlife in the city in the past. Right now they are trying to talk about GG Barnum upon whom the movie the greatest show was based. It is called the NYC Closed Club Game. You need a facebook account to be able to join the group. It is private group not public like this. Thank you for posting this. I may be a little old but would still like to join if thats ok.

Didn't the creator Tom work it so you had him as a friend if you created a profile and he had like 100 million people on his profile and I suppose he could view them all. Bit creepy that I thought.

Rare DCGuy64 Posted May 5, 2021 #237 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I remember when Betty White hosted SNL a number of years ago. During her opening monologue, she mentioned that she finally got on Facebook. She said, and I believe this is a direct quote, "it just seems like a colossal waste of time." Yep, and the cheers she got from the audience proved how many agreed with her! 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were/are outdoors by your self or with just members of your household, I agree, BUT if you are/were outdoors in a gathering with others and NOT socially distanced then you most certainly should wear a mask. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how my other brother contracted Covid, he went down to the volunteer fire Dept. Christmas party and someone was there without a mask on who had it, almost everybody came down with it. Fortunately, we quarantined right away and he and SIL didn't have too bad a time with it, not so my eldest bro😪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not around here, it's over here, cases are almost nil and besides I'm vaccinated, and unlike some others, I trust it. I have a button now I wear that' says I've been Vx'd.

HA I sent an answer..."Nope, I don't approve of you!" Ugh. I have a similar story. I created a FB page but never used it at all. After a few years I just closed the account. Then suddenly, a few years later it came back to life all on its own. No idea how that happened. I closed it again and so far, it has remained closed.

You know nothing about my location anyway. I don't live in Pulaski county which is the highest in cases in Arkansas. We're doing just fine.
