And the same School Board/Superintendent still hasn't turned the water fountains back on at the schools. Because of this, my kids have to take their own water bottles to school every day. Apparently, we should all be afraid of water fountains. The water bottle companies - just like the mask companies - are making a mint.
Some movie trivia ... The nurse who portrayed Nurse Ratched in "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest" was from ... my state of Alabama! I think, as she should have, she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar that year. She was probably too convincing in that role as it was hard to picture her after that playing a kind or sympathetic character. So nailing one role might have typecast her and hurt her future career.
Don't feel bad, I had to put on a mask to attend my daughter's musical performances, a couple of school plays, flights to FL and AZ, and quite a few other things like dentist and doctor visits. It pissed me off every time and professional people, especially doctors, really sold us out for what is a complete lie. I still get extremely pissed off about covid and the whole bs they put us through and when I see some fool still wearing a mask, like this very morning in the middle school parking lot, I can't help but say something like "Look! They're saving thousands of lives!" It was one of those idiotic duck-shaped N95 type masks, too. Only the best, I guess. Never mind that it was outdoors. Hell, never mind anything, it's totally stupid and useless and always will be. If people can't figure this crap out at this point, I don't even know what to tell them other than they are outrageous fools who deserve whatever crappy things they do to themselves. I hope they all suffer through long, terrible lives and their families abandon them.
I've been a decent person my whole life pretty much. The past couple of years of insanity broke me and I have mentally hoisted the black flag and gone over to the pirate's life--live free or die.
One of the things that has amazed me about every day life is how many every day American embraced their inner tyrant and others "masked" their identities as free men and women.
It still makes me so angry thinking about how parents were treated at those school board meetings. I wrote many emails and made many calls to our BOE beginning in July 2020! Those emails & calls went on for the next year and a half. Useful idiots the lot of them.
Thanks for sharing that story Bill. I give you an A+ for effort (this coming from a 35+ year educator, 22 as a teacher/college instructor). Believe it or not, a few years back I designed a whole course about the novel 1984 and taught it to Senior 3 high school students in a top school in a major city **in China**.
Thank you, Bill, for doing what many other people should have done - stand up and say "NO!" But it has to begin somewhere.
In January or February of 2020, while reading about this upcoming "pandemic," I saw a photo online of a young woman modeling a mask. My immediate thought: "How stupid is that? That won't stop any virus!" Little did I know what awaited us . . .
On the 16th of March, 2020, I went to the bank to withdraw a little cash. On the door they had a sign stating: "NO ONE ALLOWED IN THE BANK WITH A MASK ON" (after all, that's what bank robbers do). The next day I went back again, and on the door the sign said: "NO ONE ALLOWED IN THE BANK WITHOUT A MASK ON" - my goodness!
Sometime in 2020, I finally did an internet search of the phrase, "mask insanity," and found an article with that title by James Delingpole. He told of his experiences traveling on airplanes, having to wear a mask to board or leave, and having to wear it in the seat - unless one was eating or drinking! Apparently one cannot spread viruses during these activities.
Lastly, congratulations to your wife for her Teacher of the Year award!
Great article as always. The three minute limit must be set in stone or BOE administrators would have limited your white noise to twelve seconds or less. Why twelve? Because it’s just as arbitrary as three minute limits set by our employees that care not what parents want in their children’s indoctrination.

At this point in the Covid saga I feel the best weapon to use against the pro vax terrorists is to accumulate records of as many thorough autopsies that determine the vaccine to the the cause of death as possible. It seems that long clots are unique to the vax for example. Coroners have also found other markers that require more extensive testing but show the vaccine's effect at the cellular level. I have seen a few autopsies reported on substack and elsewhere. I am hoping one of the substack writers will dive into this to see if they can accumulate a hundred or so autopsy reports and make them public so people can see the gory details of what the VAX does to the body. It worked for smoking.

As I imagined the CC’s true intentions in our community:
Patronizing City Council Meeting Agenda
To Appease the “Redneck Horde”.
7:00. Fraudulent thanks to the crowd for
attending to share their thoughts.
7:01. Opportunity for Public Comments
7:03. Fraudulent thanks to the crowd for
attending to share their thoughts.
7:05. SWAT and Anti-riot team to escort
the mayor home.
THIS STRATEGY WILL BE REPEATED EVERY TWO WEEKS UNTIL THE TROUBLEMAKERS GROW WEARY AND REALIZE...................
"And I still hold the distinction of being the only parent in Troy, Alabama who spoke out against the masks."
Bravo! And bravo for malicious compliance!

Can't reason with ignorance, and trying is acceptance of someone else's influence.
Mockery, on the other hand is fun, and in a post-COVID fragile culture, it can showcase the emotional reactionaries for what they are.
[Some people are better assholes than others, and those committed to adulthood aren't a good role models.]
Now, y’all go subscribe so we can have more of these cute tidbits!
Good story. As I remember reading, schools had to perpetuate the nonsense because it was a condition on accepting government "money".
Good for you and your wife. Congrats!

Bill, thank you for standing up for freedom. So few did.
