"Super heroes don’t wear cape’s, they wear masks." I see this billboard when I’m down around the Lincoln Tunnel. I’m not sure why we all don’t want to be super heroes. I just don’t get it. Try to get in the habit of putting on the mask just as you would put on your underwear. We need to partner up with essential heroes and help them, this is a team effort.
I'm sure you all must have heard Tony D'Amato's (Al Pacino) speech in the movie Any Given Sunday. "We’re in hell right now, gentlemen. Believe me. And, we can stay here, get the shit kicked out of us, or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb outta hell… one inch at a time."
This is what I’m talking about. We can do this. Go Team America.
(Although it's fiction, it's pretty good.)
Think about some things you have to do to maintain your health like physicals and so on. Here’s one that I’m sure you all can relate to. I went to the dentist Tuesday. (I’d rather be buying a car.) So before I went I had my temperature checked at my office and I was 97.4. The deal was I had to sit in my Jeep in 90 degree weather, and wait for the call.
Ring, ring “you can proceed to the front door, now”. So, the nurse takes my temperature and I think I hit 101. Now either my AC sucks in my Jeep that bad, or I got the virus walking through the driveway. Against protocol, she let me inside where it is a little cooler than the front porch and took my temperature again with the finger clip. Down to 98. Thermal again came in around 97.7. Whew, I’m a fast healer.
When my oral hygienist put me in the chair, she prepared herself for the task ahead. Who remembers Marty McFly, Back to the Future , when he crashes into Peabody’s barn and gets out of the “you made a time machine out of a Delorean” looking like he was from outer space? That was my hygienist.
Thinking about it, I never knew that my mouth can be that distorted. When they are pushing and pulling in different directions’ “turn your head” then they ask questions about your life. Do I really need to answer them? I try to mentally keep a list of all the answers to rattle them off right after the rinse, but more questions come before I can retort.
So, last week I mentioned Toe Wrestling. Who wants to know more? Nobody, good, because like I said two weeks ago, the NBA started last night with the Pelicans and Jazz. Means nothing to a lot of people, but this is big. Nail biter all the way to the end. Zion, probably the best player on the court, had limited minutes or better known as time restrictions. Are you kidding me? The game is on the line with seconds to go and your best player is sitting on the bench. Although, it's not a bench right now, it is a social distanced seat. Anyway they lost at the buzzer.
Let me put it another way. What if my best chauffeur was on "time restriction" and I had to stop him while driving five minutes from the airport. I think you would be a little upset!
Anyway, hockey started, baseball started, let's keep it going. Football is lurking around the corner.
Not sure if anyone is following the New England Patriot news with players opting out. If it continues, Belichick will have to reach out to Who, What and Why from Abbott and Costello's baseball team to see if they know anything about football. Could you see Bill doing that skit!
Onto the business side of this week's message. All is good. Every week I'm glad to report that the arrow is pointing upwards. Is it 2019? Not even close. We do have core of
customers that are always there, not willing to sit around and be cooped indoors and going about their business. I'm not saying go out and be reckless, all I'm pushing for is to be smart. Enjoy a nice ride to your favorite restaurant, we will get you there and back in a safe and relaxing chauffeur driven vehicle. What about a winery tour or even a ride to the beach, we are here for you.
You want to talk about beach! Sharks in the water are you kidding me? I'm afraid to go in the water when there are jelly fish! Forget about sharks. I'll stay on the boardwalk enjoying my Piña Colada.
Be safe my friends.
Thank You,
