Well, I went to see a movie at the Hollywood Theatre, my first post COVID in theatre experience.
Met a friend there and saw the original Death Race 2000.
Went to my first post-COVID live show...
Well, just in time for the dreaded Delete variant, a friend invited me to see some live music. Being fully vaccinated, I knew I would be safe, but now that children are being affected by the delta variant, I was a bit concerned. Well things went just fine. Masks were required, and they even asked that everyone show a vaccination card on entry.
I didn’t see anybody flipping out. No body complained about their freedom being taken away. Nobody was disrespectful. No ones head blew up. Nobody pooped their pants. Show was great, and it was refreshing to see everyone having a good time while this pandemic drags on. Its great to see that we can adapt and get through this.

Finally getting a haircut!
Well I did think it was silly when people were protesting not being able to get a haircut but I do gotta say it is a relief to finally get one. My hair was so long it was getting in my eyes and under my stylus.
For a while there I was wishing I had that stupid Flowbee thing I always joke with my barber about.
vacuum not included…
Maybe things will feel a tad bit normal, now that I dont look like a total hermit, just a partial one I guess. Now to sweep out the lair and get going with life! NO more hats!
Are we really open?
Are we really open for business in Multnomah County?
Black Cat Imaging has been open for business throughout the pandemic, but now there is hope the economy will be moving forward. The COVID-19 Sale is still going on, so maybe you have a tight budget or just want to have some extra padding for the (yikes) second wave. Sale goes on until I say it's done!
Take Care, Be Safe. Meow.
Reopen Multnomah County?
Looks like we have been given false hope that our fair city will be opening for business. Last night, at the last minute, the Governor made a change, looking to reopen possibly in another seven days.
While this makes no difference for us we work autonomously, no germ filled office here in the cat’s lair, it is still frustrating.
Honestly if the Governor really cared about stopping COVID-19, she would make masks mandatory, not only for employees of grocery stores and pharmacies but for everybody.
In my adventures out of the lair, I have seen some pretty silly mask use. Either on the mouth, but not the nose (?) or on the chin keeping the nose and mouth uncovered (???). My favorite was when I was at Home Depot, and I saw a customer approach a worker to ask a question. The gentleman responded first by removing his mask to talk!
Well one thing that is libel to happen is when my barber finally gets to fix my pompadour he will have a lot of hair to make a really ugly wig.
Remember our COVID-19 Sale is still going on!
Stay safe out there, and please for the sake of yourselves, families and everyone else…wear a mask!
BLACK LIVES MATTER
So here we go again, with another innocent life extinguished by police who are entrusted to “protect and serve”. This absolutely sickens me, and how it can continue in this day and age is appalling. Politicians should be shaking in their boots, but from what I’ve seen virtually little has been done to make this problem go away.
The systemic racism in America and anywhere for that matter must end-now!
The one good thing about this happening, if you can call it that is the COVID-19 Pandemic. I think that in the past it has been simple for politicians to ignore the screams from people across all racial groups has been one of timing. Someone gets killed for no reason, protests happen, then Monday everyone has to go back to work. The politicians forget-easily.
This is not happening and people are still motivated. Change will happen. It’s already happening. Confederate monuments are being torn down (finally). Even NASCAR has banned the southern swastika (though I’d like to see how they plan to enforce that). Policing is being looked at for reform.
I think its extremely ironic how protests over police brutality are being met with more police brutality. Police are acting like victims whining about how they have been treated. Demanding respect from a frightened public. People of color are afraid of the police. They are afraid for their lives. If police want respect they need to fucking earn it. Rubber bullets are not acceptable. Pepper spray is not acceptable. And Tear Gas? Most people are not aware that it was banned in combat by the Geneva Convention.
Please, America. Take note. This racism crap is wrong. If you feel people who get killed by police “deserved it” then you are in the wrong too.
Take care,
Peace.
