Mask On/Mask Off: The Neckerchief Returns

I'll be honest, I've wanted to tie a Neckerchief ever since I was a little boy and saw Clint Eastwood wear one in the Spaghetti Westerns.

Yet I always remained envious of the occasional real cowboy that passed my rural path. I feel the same about the Neckerchief as I do the beret, in that, they are fashion accessories to specific communities, to which either I don't belong.

Until now...

It's a perfect solution if your goal is to not spread your germs. Fold it once diagonally, tie the diagonal ends behind your neck, with the flat part of the triangle over your nose. Like you're going to rob a train...

Then pull it down off your nose and leave it alone around your neck. A Neckerchief...

Now rock that shit!

In the crazy world where you not only have to worry about protecting yourself and everyone else, you also have to adjust your habits just to live your life, you are now prepared to wear a mask if it's required, or if you want to, or maybe even if it's just going to make one person more comfortable. Like a sign of respect.

Remember, this isn't going to do much to protect you from getting sick. Just other people. It will protect a bit. It's proven better than nothing.

It's just a bonus that we're all going to look cool doing it.

Fare well, Friends...

Patriotism only has value in competition, therefore belongs solely to sport and war, everywhere else it is unhealthy.

Here is a link to an ATS post I wrote in 2011 about how the "Occupy" movement was a war without shots fired.

Hindsite 2020 - On Money

The third phase of the Hindsite 2020 collection of essays concern problems and perils of being human.

In the last ten years, I've expressed some ideas that I think are important to work into a collective paradigm, perhaps none more interesting or baffling than the idea that we get rid of money. (Not get rid of currency for some other form of trade, just stop using trade.)

Sounds impossible right? Come argue with me...

Today, you can have beliefs, even faith but superstitions are stupid.
