But let’s say I did have a problem with it, that I was that guy. You know, the self-appointed pandemic hall monitor type.

Not to get off topic, but the "pandemic hall monitor type" sounds like the self-designated "Keeper of the Lane" on the interstate; the guy who refuses to move out of the passing lane because he's taken it upon himself to determine the speed at which everyone behind him should drive.

My wife was referred to a hair stylist who works out of his home instead of in a shop...we won’t rat him out either.

Did anyone else read this with a Brooklyn accent? It’s much more interesting if you do, and makes me feel like I’m talking to someone far away.

My accent comes out when I'm animated about something. When I'm speaking normally, you can't tell I've lived most of my life in Brooklyn (which I"m not proud of).

A fellow Catholic illegally cut my hair last week. I, and another illegal client, tried to pay her because she has lost both of her jobs. She refused to take our money. she said she just wanted to help people in a difficult time.

Well, thanks a lot friend, you just brought up another problem for me. I always get a beard trim. Hard to do with a mask on.

LOL - that actually brings up a new problem for me - like a lot of other guys, I've started growing out a coronavirus beard and mustache, and the girl who cuts my hair doesn't do beards. So far I've been trying to handle it myself, but it needs work - the lines aren't clean.

Unfortunately for lane keepers, some states have made their self-appointed activities illegal. They better hope the interstate revenue collectors don’t see them.

Actually, it’s mostly a leftover of the slave code.
A lot of ghetto blacks feel it’s unacceptable to cooperate with the slaveowner, even when other blacks are breaking the law. The white man’s law is in theory designed to keep slaves in bondage & is therefore not even worthy to be acknowledged by reporting crime.
“Snitches get stitches” is aimed at anyone who might think right & wrong, not race, might be a more significant factor.
The law of the ‘hood is “Mind yo own bidness.”
I remember knocking doors to get signatures on a petition to tear down a crack house, and being asked, “What crackhouse?”
And replying, “Uh, the one across the street from your house—?”

I settle for having my Wife cut my hair (what there is of it these days), she found a "Black Market" Beautician (who she has regularly used at a shop in the past) and stealthily visited her home for coloring and styling this morning (both my Wife and the Beautician wore masks).

Who would have thought that Barbershops and Hair Salons would become the "Speakeasies" of 2020???

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young Lyrics "Almost Cut My Hair"

I almost cut my hair It happened just the other day It was gettin' kinda long I could-a said, it was in my way But I didn't and I wonder why I feel like letting my freak flag fly And I feel like I owe it to someone

Must be because I had the flu for Christmas And I'm not feelin' up to par It increases my paranoia Like lookin' at my mirror and seein' a police car But I'm not givin' in an inch to fear Cause I promised myself this year I feel like I owe it to someone

When I finally get myself together I'm gonna get down in that sunny southern weather And I find a place inside to laugh Separate the wheat from the chaff I feel like I owe it to someone

Why should I care
If I have to cut my hair?
I’ve got to move with the fashion
Or be outcast
I know I should fight
But my old man he’s really alright
And I’m still living at home
Even though it won’t last

The Who

This is New Jersey so we know how to get nefarious things done. My wife called her stylist and made him an offer he couldn’t refuse. Badda bing, badda boom and my hair is refreshingly trimmed along with that of everyone else in the family. The neighborhood Karen’s are going to be very upset and just sure we did something wrong but we left no evidence. Cash, or course :-)

Me too! Had my hair cut colored and styled at someone’s home Thursday. They had 3 chairs going and not a mask in sight. Gasp!
