Memo From Cupid

Please clearly print your name
on the front of your mask. Cupid.


(Cupid is having a heck of a time this year. Not to forget all the other mishaps masks are causing. As a public service, I will just reiterate a few -- and please add some to my list as you become aware: CDC has just determined that Masks cause life threatening flatulence; per Fauci's recommendation, Pfizer is developing a new Posterior-mask – asking for volunteers with IBS to participate – Biden promises 100 billion masks by next Thanksgiving – he has issued an Executive Order banning all Chili-fests (Hear that Texas!) – Also, dental colleges in New York and Los Angeles are running dangerous low on masks with automatic floss attachments, Biden promising to order several Billion from reputable Chinese manufacturer in Wuhan. So, we really need to Brain-storm, here at Soup – it is our Civic Duty! Joe.)

Hello Joe - You wrote with fun and flair and yes of truth. I believe all this mask wearing is causing ill effects. We need to use our heads with our journeys and establishments. You certainly brought up the medical field such as the dentist office who truly and 100 percent need masks and gloves too. Will we ever find open space and clear air ever again....Remain safe and thank you for sharing such a message which makes us pause. Enjoy your day and poetry.

I think mask wearing is lunacy, the way it has been implemented. All political. All about control -- causing needless death and suffering. I have lost friends over this, not dead, but by refusing to mask in their liberal company. I have learned that Democrats are never wrong about anything...even to the point of cutting off one's own nose, to spite one's own face. Lunacy. 80 thousand additional deaths over the past couple years, and not from COVID, nor war, but due to Liberal (Marxist) Policy in my opinion.

Deaths over the past 2 years, for males aging between 18 to 65 up 40% – a mere 10% would be a 200 hundred year high. 10's of thousands raped and murdered at our borders and in Democrat (primarily) run states for no other reason than to bring about collapse of the system for federal takeover of policing in local communities (in my opinion). And not one democrat voter, I have spoken to, will admit culpability for electing these savages to office. All of them probably believing Saint Peter is going to just wave them into heaven though having such atrocities on their communal souls. Joe.

Hey, Joe! You know what? My mask is tearing apart at the seams. Perhaps you can tell 'Grandfather Joe' (Biden) to ship me some masking tape to Lori Lightfoot here in Chicago. (She's the mayor, sort of). Smiles, Gershon

I think she would only use it, to tape over the mouths of Conservatives. You know it as well as I do, this new found wisdom Dems have adopted, is all about sinking poll numbers, and the Midterms coming up. Like with Biden, say anything to get elected, and do exactly the opposite once in office. So tired of being lied to. Joe.

Father DeMino, in my neck of the woods there were so many fatherless babies born, a State investigation followed. The women claimed they were all raped by masked men, so their children's dad's are not really known. I don't buy it
