And They Walk Around With No Care in the World - Mask Up People


And like the earlier piece, my rant today is about this damn pandemic, and the lives Covid has taken.

My rant.

Impose Fines

People are still moving around without masks, can you freaking believe that? Amidst cries for help, Covidiots remain on point with their lack of concern. Like I had said before if these fools don’t give a damn about their health, the rest of us do. I believe strict fines should be imposed on anyone who leaves their homes or offices without a mask. Even if they are just going outside their gates to buy veggies from the vendor. Strict policing even in the smallest of lanes is what will keep us relatively safe. In my opinion.

Mask Up, Already!

Take this example, a woman who was hospitalized for ten days was seen walking her dogs after just two days of returning home. She had a mask on - to cover her chin! She kept coughing outside with no concern about the spores she was spreading. Ultimately, a neighbor and her family contracted Covid - they are suffering. Talk about a lack of concern for another human. And based on the news, animals are supposedly getting the freaking virus and if her dogs contracted it, is anyone safe?  She takes them out for their daily walk, they crap all over the place and she coughs without a mask. Seriously, what the ...?

And while I go on with this, as I looked out of my window yesterday - I see a young kid on his bike having a merry time cycling. It was a welcome change, but there is a reason for the lock down you know kid, I said. His mask was on his head! Guess his parents needed some peace. Or he managed to get out while they were busy. Or whatever, but there is a pandemic, and the virus is spreading like crazy! People need to get real. People need to get serious.

The Things Some Do For Love

Now listen to this. An elderly man contracted the virus about a week ago, to the dismay of his wife and family. Neither of the two liked wearing masks. Like everyone does! Being a loyal and stupid wife, she did not quarantine herself, she slept on the same bed. They are both hospitalized now and her oxygen levels are bad. She managed to get a bed and treatment despite her stupidity. Others are desperate to get oxygen even a bed, so many have died! Her excuse for not wanting to quarantine – we never slept apart, ever. I get the romance and love bit, but it is people like this with immense stupidity who spread the muck!

Here is another case of abject stupidity. A 20 something person decided to do something for a friend who contracted the virus. He rounded a group of buddies and went out searching for a hospital, a bed, oxygen. They wanted to help their friend. I get that helping someone is of paramount importance. However, when you have elderly parents at home and you venture out to help others, is that idiocy or what? And when you know that there is a lock down and a pandemic. There are fools everywhere.

I Conclude

A lock down is not everyone’s cuppa. It is certainly not a suitable option for me. It is also very difficult for many who rely on their daily bread to make ends meet. The circus seems to have come to town with clowns playing the fool. No matter how much sense you try to din into their heads, not many listen or see reason. Death is the final straw. And, if Covidiots from every walk of life don’t understand this, we are going to be seriously compromised for a long long time.

Water Woe

Here’s a problem about the water scene that’s plaguing our city with the authorities taking a lackadaisical attitude about our woeful situation. Guess privatization of this inactive force needs to be the hour of the day. What say? The heat at this time of the year in Feb is rather pinching and I really wonder what it’s gonna be like in the coming months. Here’s hoping that some rain will give us a breather and in consequence fill the reservoirs and enable the water man to actually attend to our ardent need. Moving on from the tale of gloom, with the onset of summer it’s time for the sleek and svelte to don the most happening items in vogue and show off their splendid bods. To the rest of us metabolically slow, we trudge the path of heat with the longing that this brand of ‘exercise’ (or lack of it) would shed the unwanted girth! Anyways, it’s a good time I guess both ways, coz everyone maybe a winner because..........the heat is on! ....... but not the ones with lack of water...

Happy Birthday Mama Mary

I sit here thumping away on the keyboard wondering about what to write and it dawns on me…… Many years ago when I was a young girl I was approached by a lady in Church to play the role of Mother Mary. She wanted to put up this enactment about the apparition of Mary to a group of children. I did not know who the person was and was surprised - my first thought was to decline as I was extremely shy. However, she did not pressurize me and instead asked me to think about it and after doing so and sharing it with the folks, I accepted the role. This play went on for about fifteen minutes but they were the best moments of my life. Many years have gone by…but this wonderful memory remains with me always. However, I feel sad at the number of people who do not acknowledge Our Lady. Jesus said “Son this is your mother and mother this is your son” and thus we embrace Mary as our blessed mother. She, as any mother, helps us with our problems, intercedes on our behalf and in return we than...

Cheating

Why do people throw good relationships for a quick roll in the hay? This practice seems to be growing and practically every second person in a committed relationship doesn’t think twice about two timing his/her partner. However, when they are “found out” these individuals don’t think twice about promising the moon and once forgiven you can be pretty sure that they are gonna do (sic) the deed again and again. I think that once they go the entire hog, they just aren’t gonna curb their enthusiasm! Cheaters know their partners will relent no matter what. They preen themselves with having “won”! However, if a person cheats on me, I would tell the jerk to beat it. Rather be single, keep your dignity intact than stick with some douche bag. Not my cuppa … What about you my lovelies?

Beginning of the End?

A short story here... Just read and let me know what you think? I haven't concluded the story just going with the flow. The erratic nature of the power supply left the entire city in the lurch and this seemed to be a frequent occurrence. In spite of pleadings to curb global warming people paid no heed to the warnings and this brought about the swarm …. The beginning was when the entire country was wiped out in darkness and stampedes all over going on well into the night. Headlights of passing vehicles were the only source of light as generators were giving way because of the scarcity of fuel available. Every living being was being held hostage because of the “no power and no water” adage. No rainfall = less electricity = no water = no produce = malnutrition. The crops were in a mess, pets were getting crazed, and livestock was dropping dead by the minute. Drought was at an all time high. Neighboring countries pitched in, but this deluge was gaining momentum across cou...

The Price of Public Humiliation

Two-Faced You know there are people who claim to be pals just to look cool. I had this conversation with a close friend who couldn’t understand why a couple of her Facebook friends ignored her in person. After our chat, it finally dawned on her that the so called friends just wanted a long list to appear hip. She updated her status and vented her frustration. An amusing story here - the same people who ignored her added their two bits about public humiliation and gave it the thumbs down signal. Weird don't you think? Plastic Smiles How would you like it if relatives followed the same principle? In public spaces they turn away pretending they do not know you leaving you dumbfounded. Here is something that happened to a couple of friends. They received invitations for a wedding where everyone attended the blessed event. To cut a long story short, my friends and their families were ignored and treated like social pariahs by closest members of the family! When they came face-to-f...
