“I’ll stick with that” ???

“I’ll Stick with that” makes “Yeah, that’s the ticket” look sincere.

OT. Orange County officially adopted the stance that masks need not be worn. Public health officials say that it is a good idea to wear them. OK, OC. Time for me to do any shopping in Long Beach. That city is taking the virus more seriously than OC is.

Oh good, just as the number of confirmed cases are swelling.

OT I’ve been reading many of the suggestions for renaming John Wayne airport after someone who wasn’t a racist POS, many of them excellent choices.

But one wit nailed it. Said he, “The airport should be named after the economic driver of Orange County: Mickey Mouse.”

Just how does one get a “compassionate concussion?”

And, by the way, what does an extreme compulsive narcissist know about compassion? Does Trump know the meaning of the term “oxymoron?” As incurious and fundamentally uneducated as he is, I’d doubt that he does.
