This is exquisite writing

"...Everyone visiting Disney World just wore masks, and if some dad resented having to do so, he endured his chagrin stoically, like a grown-ass man, scowling privately behind his mask on the Winnie the Pooh ride."

1. It is a joy to read a long article that has no spelling errors,

shows a skilled grasp of proper grammar, and exhibits a fabulous turn of phrase in almost every paragraph. I have absolutely no desire to visit any of Disney's parks. Thanks to this article, I don't need to. It's so well written it was almost like being there.

He’s as wet as The Atlantic is wont to be, but the details are fascinating and he can write like crazy. Thanks!

5. When I was a young man I had a friend who was an Elvis impersonator.

They were looking for Elvis impersonators for a show at the Contemporary. Security was much more lax then. He gave the person working at one of the admission booths a cock and bull story and we got in the park for free.

4. Thanks for the post and link to the article. Great read!

The airport where I had started my day, in Connecticut, had required masks, and everyone wore them. Here in Florida, some passengers went totally unmasked, but most wore masks in a defiant fashion, either slung under their chin or with their nostrils gaping out over the top, sucking and spewing potentially viral particles with every breath. A friend who lives a couple of hours away in St. Petersburg likens this latter style to “wearing a condom that covers only the shaft.”
