The mandates just delay the inevitable while harming businesses economically

Since I’m super sick of work and still grinding through voicemails and check writing, I thought I’d do a cost breakdown of this trip for those interested. It was a much less expensive trip than Jackson hole..in JH I spent more on lift tickets, dining out, airfare, airport parking and less on rental car and baggage at least $4,000 for JH, hard to gauge exactly as I brought a lot of cash with me. For colorado trip Rental car/gas $640 Hotels $840 3 days at Abasin $240 1 day Loveland $85 1 day at Copper $145 airfare free airport baggage $90 roundtrip airport parking $120 dispensory $350 food/drink $400 max or like one dinner in JH lol total approx $2900 maybe less as I spent about $100 the first night going out to eat and some groceries and other days just had Einstein bagels, Wendy’s, cheap Mexican food and just random mini market stuff.

You’re existence lol don’t worry @saltyant I think this thread is grate!!

Yeah no man-dates for us that week.

A lot of superlatives there.

If I ever meet Ben Simmons I’m gonna ask him if he’s related to Richard...he’ll probably say N***** please but he’s part black so it’s ok.

I was today years old when I learned the sixers made the playoffs. That’s huge and historic for a philly team. Wow just wow although being so good they’re gonna get shitty draft picks. No more $17.76 basketball seats. Philadelphia 76ers put your hands up post Malone aka the White Iverson and karl Malone aka black dude jimmy kümmel played are in the building. Mic check sprectrum...chiggity check check check..can carpool from Lansdale with Matt Edge and do some nose bears wahahahah

Honestly congressman are paid like $200k a year and serious benefits from our taxes, they should dress a little better. Also put a wig on Barney Frank and a half bottle of JD in me and I’d fap to that.. also that tweet is from 2011 so prob not real but those sweater puppets are real.

I saw two separate people driving alone in their cars with masks on..I’m not gonna judge, they may be immuno compromised and don’t want the Covid-19 to get them at a red light.

New liftline for the adventure six pack. @Benmnotices everything..he would definitely know if somebody had eaten some of his porridge. Even Johnny Law was telling me that he’s one of the brightest to come out of Delco.

C1er, this thread hasn’t even been that good, I didn’t have anybody to take action shots of me in Colorado and it was so empty that I would have had to wait many minutes to get shots of other folks. I only even rode the lift with others a handful of times. Everybody has a different level of risk. If I had a baby and was afraid of them getting Covid, I wouldn’t take them on planes. I probably had Covid back in December. Half of Allentown got it then and I was hoarse for a couple days. I didn’t get tested because what I don’t know won’t hurt me...Atomic Jeff wouldn’t ride the lift with me at Blue. Will be interesting to see if there are future booster shots. Also C1 I understand that 70 year olds are gonna be more cautious about Covid than 30 and 40 year olds because they’ve seen so many of their friends die of it. Also when the older folks on PASR were kids, the world was about adults not about kids, parents smoked cigs with kids on their laps and let kids drink soda. Ahhh the good old days when young black men like @theprogram4brought hip hop to the masses.

This isn’t even bad..I should have gone away longer.

Last mask post. Back to more ski trip ruminations this afternoon.

That’s hilarious. I should text him but I’m not in the mood for any awkwardness.

This is where the pandemic takes an interesting twist. 25 months in and I’m still laughing.

I miss seeing faceshields around. They were rad. Early in the pandemic some of the vendors at the allentown farmers market wore them.

Yeah that rule of only removing mask while actively eating and drinking on planes became extinct like the Dodo bird...I definitely can make a 1/2 ounce bag of pretzels and a 4 ounce soda last me 25 minutes solid on a plane... Covid is still very real and I’m sure there will be many other variants. It’s just crazy the hypocrisy many have. It’s just the risk/reward...early in the pandemic I freaked out at somebody at the grocery store who was standing like 3 feet behind me in line at a store and remember telling a Blue collar looking guy at a mini market(put on a fucking mask)...yeah not the first time I’ve stuck my hands in the lions cage. Aside from all the drama most of us got to ski plenty during the pandemic. The worst parts of the pandemic were the 2019-2020 ski season abrupting coming to an end, doing almost no business the first 6 weeks, my social life went to shit and initially I had some fear of catching it. Best parts were all the discussion, news, polarization and drama. I’ll have more ruminations from my Colorado trip later but I have to count money and respond to 6 work days worth of voicemails. Cheers

Exactly...you just have to remove it briefly going through security so they can ID you. I miss the old mask memes. One thing I noticed on the plane yesterday was a lot more coughing and sneezing. It is allergy season and the Flu is bad right now in PA or maybe the coughs and sneezes weren’t muffled by masks.

Hmmmm who skied more this past season???

Hah

People are still allowed to wear masks on planes if they want to.

I don’t even wear polo shirts to work anymore.

My previous ones last from 1-2 years.

Did anybody see that they’re opening a Margaritaville resort in the Poconos?? I know there are some jimmy Buffett fans lurking.
