    Your response: Trying saying "No" or "MAGA 2020" when you're on a ventilator.

    I really got much better at Charades when Gwen was on the ventilator, particularly as she became more lucid and they unbound her arms. Even better when they found her a whiteboard and a Sharpie.

    I rent sailboats at the community boating center, and they require two people to sail, sometimes, not always, they are strangers, and we are way less than six feet apart.

    That main sail just looked a little tougher.

    So @Chef2 and @Liut - why don’t you wear the mask?

    Always indoors and outdoors only when I can't maintain six feet.

    I do take it off sometimes in the office. We are in on assigned days and I’m the only person in my pod. There might be three other people at the same time in what would pass for a decent-sized newsroom.

    I do walk at the beach a fair bit. I will wear the loops around my ears and pull it up when someone is passing in close proximity.

    Are you required to go to the office?

    Once a week and it’s optional, but I’ve missed the train ride and the structure to the day.

    Yes, that has been truly disruptive if you are a routine freak. Sudden deviation is not a pleasant thing to deal with.

    Work from home and, except for a handful of outings, haven't done anything that's pretty close to essential since mid-March.

    When I'm outside running or riding or walking, no mask. There's alway room to slide around others.

    I always wear a mask when in another indoor setting. Forgot one once for a quick shopping trip ... fortunately, my T-shirt was baggy enough I could pull it up and cover mouth and nose without baring my midriff.
