Today, if you choose to visit Universal Studios Hollywood, you may have have to show proof of full vaccination if you’re 12-year-old or older, or you won’t be able to get in the gate. However, head down the road a piece to Disneyland Resort and, assuming you have a reservation, you’ll be able to get in without such a step. While both parks have been largely following the same guidelines up until now, beginning today the fact that they are in two separate counties is now important.
With blood test proof in our hands, we told my parents we were going to the state fair in Jackson and spend the night with my aunt. We got to the first town we had been told about and walked up to the Circuit Clerk, and he asked for our driver’s license or some proof of age. OK, we gave him the proof of blood test which stated our age at eighteen. He needed driver’s license or birth certificates. We explained how we forgot them. Then he asked for witnesses and my young fiancé said, “We let them off down the road a piece.”
When JFQ stubbornly refused to materialize (even in his scraggly, (thô, xộc xệch) MAGA-rallying spectral form) at their “créme de la cray-cray” rally (what with being 22-years dead and all), Colbert noted how, like all doomsday cults who foolishly peg their gabbling grab-bag of nonsensical gibberish (nói lắp bắp) to a specific time and place, the minions of Q simply shifted their epoch-shattering announcement down the road a piece. That being Tuesday’s concert appearance by the conveniently still-alive members of The Rolling Stones. “Guys! Come on!,” ranted Colbert, “You can’t always get what you want! But if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.”
