The Quark In The Road
Unmasking Trump’s narcissism
“’The CDC is advising the use of non-medical cloth face covering as an additional voluntary public health measure,’ the US president told reporters on Friday. ‘This is voluntary. I don’t think I’m going to be doing it'” [The Guardian]
‘It’s wise to wear a mask,’ says the CDC.
‘It’s not the law. Do it voluntarily.’
When asked, would he do it,
Trump promptly said ‘Screw it.
It wouldn’t be flattering worn by me.

Aquinas wired
I’m Jerry Partacz, happily married to my wife Julie for over 40 years. I have four children and eleven grandchildren. I’m enjoying retirement after 38 years of teaching. I now have an opportunity to share my thoughts on many things. I’m an incurable optimist. I also love to solve crossword puzzles and to write light verse. I love to read, to garden, to play the piano, to collect stamps and coins, and to watch “Curb Your Enthusiasm”.
