    I don't think it's skipping posts. It's saying that the last post before the Jon's was 9 days ago.

    "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      “Vice President Mike Pence tours Mayo Clinic without coronavirus mask even though he was told to wear one”

      Seriously, if you don’t do it for yourself, at least do it for the sick people and the medical workers you’re visiting.

          I saw that in the news also, and Vice President Pence said he did not have to because he gets tested quite often along with everyone around him. He should know then that people can be showing no symptoms but still have the disease.

            Just out of peer pressure I’m surprised he kept a mask off. When everyone around you is talking in a mask/muffle voice.... it’s awkward if you aren’t doing the same.

                Follow up to the story:
                https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/pence-staff-threatens-action-against-reporter-who-tweeted-about-visit-to-clinic-without-surgical-mask/2020/04/30/27c63056-8b0a-11ea-9dfd-990f9dcc71fc_story.html

                Now Pence’s staff is threatening retaliation against a reporter who tweeted that they have all been informed about the requirement to wear masks. So petty!

                  As I said in another thread, an unforced error.

                    My guess is he wanted to look good to Trump, in particular he wanted to look not weak to Trump, and he knows Trump 'chooses not' to wear a mask.

                          That probably reduces some of the effectiveness.

                            For certain values of ‘effective’.

                            She could probably run with it. I mean, if she could run.

                                    I'll bet Jesus wore a mask of sorts, during a dust storm.

                                        Another “no mask” visit:

                                        https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/05/07/coronavirus-honeywell-silent-whether-trump-exempted-mask-rules/5176953002/

                                        Trump visited Honeywell factory, no mask.
