Memorial Day weekend in New York City won’t look quite the same as years past, as the novel coronavirus pandemic has caused beaches to be closed for large gatherings, sports, celebrating and even swimming.

Mayor Bill De Blasio said during a Friday press conference the Parks Department will be the first line of enforcement, with the NYPD around to step in when necessary.

"Anyone who's unhappy about that, anyone who thinks it's unfair, the buck stops with me," he said, as he laid out the rules for which activities would and would not be allowed on beaches.

Sex on the Beach:

Ingredients

Probably forbidden by DeBlasio in one form or another

I wonder, when Willi looks at himself in the mirror in the morning, if he is comparing himself in satisfaction to Lenin. Or is it to Mussolini?

Be even funnier if each one of them brought a pet brick with the name De Blasio written on all of them. Please see what happens. Be bigger than the “throw a brick at Al Hirt Mardi Gras of 1977!”

The beaches are almost certainly very safe. The issue is with indoors.

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/05/how-will-we-ever-be-safe-inside/611953/

“A Hong Kong paper awaiting peer review found that of 7,324 documented cases in China, only one outbreak occurred outside—during a conversation among several men in a small village. The risk of infection indoors is almost 19 times higher than in open-air environments, according to another study from researchers in Japan.”

He said you can surf but not swim. Hope none of those surfers fall off their boards.

If you're going to the beach, wear a mask for goodness sake!

In my neck of the woods, a good tasting alcoholic beverage would be named “Foreplay on the Beach”....or just plain “Foreplay”...
