The steak and lobster was delicious but the wine was a little too sweet. I only have myself to blame for that. When I asked if i could bring something he told me not to and I listened to him. I usually bring a bottle or two of wine just to prevent that kind of a situation. Anyway it was a fine time and I feel honored to have attended his first weekly PPP BBQ. Umm OK I guess.

Two points: 1) Consumers own the economy. People will go out when they feel safe. 2) The end of stay at home orders doesn’t mean the pandemic is over. It means they currently have room for you in the ICU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately they can go out when the government feels it safe. See the difference? Point two. No one said that meant the pandemic is over. It means the economy needs to get back to work. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was exactly the purpose of the shutdown, social distancing, masks, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as quickly as I had envisioned but it's definitely turning. What's beginning to happen and you are seeing this occur in California is that you are having the righties with the anti vaxxing lefties unite on this issue. Watching them protest together is truly a sight to behold. Edit: I know these anti vaxxing lefty types, they are the sort of friends that I used to go to music festivals out in Northern California with.
