Goines came home from shopping in a giddy mood. He had carelessly splashed gasoline on his pants because he pulled the nozzle out before clicking it off. How stupid or inattentive can a man be who has put gasoline into a car – what, a million times?
    But, he told his wife, though neither Walmart nor Walgreens had had the throat lozenges she required for her dry throat, he had been told at Walgreens that they were still requiring masks even though the governor was going along with the president and the CDC about vaccinated people no longer being advised to wear masks.
    He told Mrs. Goines he thought he’d add to his final instructions that he was to be cremated wearing a mask. But she nixed that. “No, my dear, that’s definitely the time to give up the mask.”
