If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Walking into a bank wearing a mask! :-o

April 17, I bought and mailed a money order. Still not in Caldwell, Tx as of today and not cashed. So I had the bank cancel it and issue a new one. Easy-peasy.

Then over to the PO to send it with a tracking number this time. No wonder the PO is losing money - they can't deliver mail right!

In Nebr you're not supposed to carry concealed in banks, but I'm so used to having it on I forgot to leave it in the truck. I told the teller I was uneasy wearing the mask & she just laughed. Didn't mention the gat under my jacket. SW

im thinking the guys back in the 20s-30s might shake their heads at all this BS and then again say thanks , bonnie and clyde died for that - we fit right in , ive seldom been without mine since this crap started - mostly carried before that anyway , but the mask just dont feel right - never will for me ,

Not wearing one, and don't plan to for the time being.
They can't seem to make up their minds whether it's an effective deterrent or not.
About 50/50 yays and nays from what I've read on-line....

I am staying with the rigorous hand-washing and physical distancing.

Regards,

Hi fellas....I've worn masks for years...in my biz tho :lol
Seriously, masks will help as micro droplets of peoples spittle and sneezes travel....unfortunately the eyes are number 2 means of receptors on the face.
Masks help.....but aren't total cure.....and when I see a checkout teller wearing a mask, but adjusting it constantly with her hand....I shake my head, can't fix this society......
:kap:

Asquare......it IS nice the 6ft rule, I never do like people breathing down my neck in a checkout line.....and yup, there's been a few 'discussions' in the store, loud and clear to back off... :-x
Now if they looked like Maryann on giligands island, they could bump into me, and I would just say, "thank you".... :jmp:
