Americans can take domestic flights, drive where they want, and roam streets and parks. Despite restrictions, everyone seems to know someone discreetly arranging play dates for children, holding backyard barbecues or meeting people on dating apps.

Partly as a result, the country has seen up to 30,000 new case infections each day. “People need to realize that it's not safe to play poker wearing bandannas,” Dr. Schaffner said.

“We know that the coronavirus receptors — the ACE2 receptors — are found at very high levels in the lining of the nose and so it allows the coronavirus to attach into the nose and cause damage to the olfactory receptors that pick up the odors.”

That’s a far more comforting explanation than loss of smell being caused by a neurological disorder.

Dude. If I lived in Utah and I was young and strong like you, I’d be thinking that perhaps next ski season they won’t be able to open to tourism and maybe locals only and maybe that’ll make it an affordable experience. We could be hitting radical new spikes next fall.

I mean, Las Vegas is ****ing dead. The mayor is like OPEN THE STATE. Really? Slot machines, cards, and crowded shows. Obviously I’m a terrible judge of what people will tolerate but any government that lets it’s people spend a week in a casino and then return home is out of their ****ing minds. Those casinos are as sunk as the cruise ships.

But anyway, aviation is dead. And if it’s dead next year a day on the slopes might cost $15.

When I was a kid, The Braves were so bad it was cheaper to see an MLB game live than to go to the movies.

So if the pandemic still has us on lock down you want me to go skiing for cheap?

Only if that’s something you’d enjoy.
