Here's Your Face Mask, Larry

"Hey, hey, hey!  I'll have none of that!"

Funny Maryland's governor is named Larry.  He looks more like Curly.  On top of that, he thinks more like Moe.  Big on ideas.  Long on flawed thinking.

The latest to take center stage of Larry's Three Ring Circus is his face mask debacle.  Joining three other states of macho men trying to act tough (PA, NJ, and NY), Larry decided Marylanders needed to wear face masks when they are in food and retail establishments or on public transportation.

Here is his exact definition of face mask:

“Face Covering” means a covering that fully covers a person’s nose and mouth, but is not a Medical-Grade Mask.  The term “Face Covering” includes, without limitation, scarves and bandanas.

If you think that's funny, wait until you hear the punishment for not following Larry's (or is it Curly's?) order.

“A person who knowingly and willfully violates this Order is guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction is subject to imprisonment not exceeding one year or a fine not exceeding $5,000 or both.”

Wow!  After Larry shut down most businesses forcing the unemployment of millions, the last thing anyone needs is a $5,000 fine.  Jail wouldn't be too bad since most people can't work anyway...but the fine?  Oh what compassion Larry the Tyrant has.

Since I don't want to go to jail nor pay another needless fine (Maryland is full of potential for needless fines), with quivering knees I succumb to the demand of His Majesty, Larry.  By His order, I present the mask I wear.  It's perfectly legal by His definition.
