       Masked Man Survives Hurricane Helene Music Video 
       By: Masked Man Date: September 29, 2024, 7:55 pm

       Here's my Masked Man Survives Hurricane Helene Music Video.
       Of course I did it all my mask!
       It's footage of the tail end of the Hurricane Helene where I
       live in the High Country , in the western mountains of North
       Carolina...I set the footage to my own singing as if the
       hurricane wasn't bad enough!
       I sing in this video a little  "Row Row your boat","Didn't It
       Rain" originally sung by Rosetta Tharpe, "have You Ever Seen The
       Rain" by Creedence Clearwater Revival, "Raindrops Keep Falling
       On My Head"by BJ Thomas, and "Singing In The Rain by Gene Kelly.
       This film features special guest star: Scamp my little dog.
       Our little creek became like a raging river and the water
       flooded over the road. But I didn't risk getting sick and
       remained steadfast in my mask as usual.

       Hope you enjoy,
       The Masked Man!
       P.S.
       This happening, to me is like the blueprints of where more covid
       and disease will occur.. To my observation, catastrophes like
       flooding and hurricanes  fuel super spreading events. Responding
       and  Rebuilding requires a certain finesse and care… I can’t
       help but feel the biblical proportions such as how floods and
       plagues sort of belong together,fueling one another.. People
       tend to throw all caution to the wind and totally forget all
       precautions calling upon each other for help but not even
       thinking about covid… While there’s only so much we can do to
       prevent certain catastrophic events we can control our response
       to danger by taking all the precautions such as masking while we
       are still in a pandemic. We don’t want to inadvertently lose
       more people to covid and disease while trying to help people
       during catastrophic events.(I can’t help to think about how the
       so-termed Spanish flu of 1918 took more lives than four wars
       combined.. twould be a shame to generate more deaths from covid
       because of lack of pandemic precautions during hurricane crisis
       response)
       I encourage first responders and people gathering or stranded
       during such events to take all the precautions such as masks
       necessary to ward off unnecessary spreading of disease during
       these tragic events. I don’t want to survive a hurricane just to
       catch a disease .. lol.. wear a mask says the Masked Man ;)

       I am glad that you are safe from the effects of the most recent
       hurricane.
       I suppose, though, that we must also be mindful of the stresses
       and circumstances that other people faced when dealing with the
       hurricane and the aftermath. People who are under great duress
       might not remember to take Covid precautions or, due to
       life-threatening circumstances, deem such precautions to be
       momentarily unimportant in relation with harm to themselves or
       others.
       Irregardless of such conditions, masking and other Covid
       precautions should resume when circumstances allow for it in
       order to avoid a worsening in cases, hospitalizations and
       deaths.

       Oh yeah man, I second that.. now I see the aftermath people
       pulling dirty nasty stuff out of super dirty water and still no
       masks.. I kid you not so many fools willing to breathe in dirty
       stagnant moldy sewage animal infested water.. they’ll poison
       their own lungs with asbestos and corroded household water
       ravaged debri.. they breathe it all in.. you name it. There's no
       fine print label next to the flooded area or on a person who has
       covid  that reads: "warning may be bad for your health Do not
       inhale in enclosed area"  As it already is people think they are
       invincible and that they can breathe in anything from sheet rock
       dust to paint …I lived in in West Virginia for awhile and every
       old man I ever saw was sitting on his porch hooked up to an
       oxygen tank suffering black lung disease... I say don’t be a
       hero.. to me, the aftermath of hurricanes and flooding is thee
       best time to mask… there’s a reason in the Bible people get
       plagues and such during times of floods and other world changing
       events.. such catastrophes always make for ideal conditions for
       germs and viruses and bacteria! Perfect conditions for disease
       .. that water is dirty .. people shouldn’t expose their
       membranes to what the dirty waters have touched. It’s nasty.
       It’s no joke..not only that there’s tons of displaced people now
       crowding one another .. we are talking tons of people .. even in
       my dead end street it’s like a migrant wave of strangers all
       parked together at end of road throwing all caution to the wind
       inhabiting small dwellings together standing in line sharing
       bathroom.. if just one kid gets a fever or something their whole
       crew and several households are gonna get it. it’s the perfect
       time to mask!
       To me or rather what I guard against is the invisible unseen
       stuff… for example, I think to myself: never underestimate the
       microscopic entities at play.. I simply chose not to breathe in
       a mysterious evolving microscopic entity that could lead to my
       downfall. To me:  I never underestimate what I can’t see.. what
       I  can’t see can kill or mess us up. In this case I have faith
       in what the electron microscope has proved to us and I respect
       that microscopic entity by wearing a mask for it.
       Also, all through my childhood I kept small pets in
       terrariums..I can't stress enough how the study, keen
       observation and keeping of small creatures plays a vital part in
       the choices I make today for myself. I learned if I introduced
       too many other animals into my pets habitat , or if the
       conditions of the terrarium were off and the food source became
       nasty and so forth the worse for my pet. In other words a clean
       uncrowded terrarium with ideal climate and clean food and water
       source kept my pets healthy from microscopic things that harm or
       kill them. I figure it’s the same for our species and so when I
       enter a crowded dirty area I don’t breathe it in .. I wear my
       mask before entering unfavorable environment or crowd just like
       it’s  a dirty enclosed terrarium full of too many creatures
       already sick.. I wear a mask for these reasons.. I don’t wanna
       die from that. I take off my mask in my house of course it’s
       just me, a dog, a cat, and my significant other and our habitat
       inside the house seems favourable and safe enough for me :)
       To me it’s as if I am not above the other animals.. a chameleon
       doesn’t thrive in all climates and seasons..nor does it function
       happily in the midst of just any type of other creatures or even
       around certain objects it doesn't belong around..some things are
       just incompatible.. same goes for my dwelling.. my dwelling is a
       man made environment suited and adapted just for for me to
       thrive in.. outside the dwelling I might face unfavorable
       climate/ atmosphere. I observe this with little creatures and it
       is the same as I. That’s what clothes food and shelter is all
       about.. I create a healthy habitat to live inside that suits my
       personal biological needs with certain boundaries not unlike a
       magnified version of a splendid habitats such as a luxurious
       healthy terrarium for just one chameleon knowing full well the
       dangers of letting extremes in and multitudes of other species
       onto my habitat.
       For me that’s life .. that’s why I wear clothes .. that’s why I
       live in a house.. when I traverse outside my little habitat I
       prefer to wear a mask which is like a form of clothes but
       instead of protecting my skin the mask protects  my lungs by
       filtering matter I already know is contagious and makes people
       suffer. There’s nothing inhuman about my way of life. In fact
       it’s quite human having observed how to make small pets  and
       animals happy and having an imagination capable of understanding
       that there are things the eye can’t see that are to be
       avoided(electron microscopes have proved some of this) I feel
       quite human and am using human intellect to choose what I need
       insofar  as  my biological needs are concerned  as well as other
       goods I seek while pursuing happiness. In other words:  My mask
       doesn’t interfere with my happiness ..its power and utility
       gives me peace of mind and protects me from breathing in things
       that are dangerous for me when I'm in dangerous areas..My mask
       is a tool which helps me in my pursuit of human needs and
       happiness.

       This sounds horrible but I can just feel it in my bones. I
       predict a wave of covid and other diseases unlike no other
       because of the aftermath of Hurricane Helene in my area..
       There hasn't been a hurricane like this since 1913 and I hate to
       think people might soon say the same about this pandemic...
       If I may quote Mark Honigsbaum's The Pandemic Century: "The
       precise genetic identities of pandemic strains prior to 1900 are
       lost to history, but in the twentieth century there have been
       three major shifts.The first was the H1N1 Spanish flu virus that
       emerged in 1918, or possibly a little earlier (by comparing
       older and more recent strains of the virus and running molecular
       clocks backward in time, evolutionary biologists suggest the
       virus may have acquired its avian genes somewhere between 1913
       and 1917" ...Of course in our  present time, meaning right now,
       we have an even better well documented accounts of a mutating
       virus circulating amongst our political heroes, superstars and
       performing musicians..and of course our farmers face a virus
       from livestock of many sorts from cows, chickens to fur farms..
       ...as well intentioned and loving and giving people are, I see
       no masks or precautions being taken for covid during hurricane
       relief in my area whatsoever...no public awareness or public
       encouragement about covid precautions whatsoever.. (I'm sure
       victims of the hurricane don't want to hear this but I live
       amongst ye and something very similar to the Spanish flu could
       erupt.  Because the virus was new, very few people, if any, had
       some immunity to the disease. From 1918 to 1919, the Spanish flu
       infected an estimated 500 million people globally and took more
       lives  than four wars added together so who is bold enough to
       say covid won't take more lives than this one hurricane as life
       shattering as it is for so many when all we have to do is wear a
       mask?) Hurricanes are devastating.. diseases are devastating as
       well but we have the chance to prevent disease while we work and
       rebuild for one another the best we can.
       Now displaced people gathering and sharing in close quarters &
       shelters..
       ... local churches are letting people drop their kids off all
       day ... if people don't get sick in that packed church of kids
       getting babysat all day it will be miracle.
       ...With Whoopi Goldberg possibly sick again..
       all this while tons of politicians are still coming down with
       covid.. everyday rock bands that play to football stadiums of
       people packed together like sardines, cancelling shows  due to
       personal "illness".. it will be highly unlikely our maskless
       first responders and the people they are helping from the
       hurricane don't get sick.
       I hope I'm wrong but if something is going to make people sick
       it will be this hurricane relief situation. This event has
       "super spreader " written all over it.. a recipe for  more
       disaster possibly a recipe for a new variant... I'm sure my
       advice will fall on deaf ears...  Time will tell of course.I
       hope no one gets sick during their goodwill and hard work
       helping one another. Bless your hearts,
       The Masked Man

       I can't help but think my predictions about people in the
       aftermath of Hurricane Helene cleanup and the victims themselves
       raised the level of covid considering the recent study stating
       that "One in six North Carolinians has experienced Long COVID,
       according to the Centers for Disease Control. People with Long
       COVID have symptoms for four weeks or more, and they can last
       for months or years. Even people who did not have severe
       symptoms at first can develop Long COVID" according to the CDC.
       ...I don't know what more proof I need than that to prove
       Hurricane Helene dignity help the covid situation besides what's
       the point? "One in six North Carolinians have long covid! That's
       huge number of disability and suffering not to mention its
       probably under reported. That enough proof for me.
       The repercussions from Hurricane Helene are far from over..
       recently there was another flood that knocked out a lot of
       rebuilding that was done anyway things get built again and get
       washed out again...
       After floods often animals get washed out and displaced just
       like people..
       Here's a snapping turtle relocation music video I produced for
       you maskers out there. There was a lot of rain and sometimes
       animals move to dangerous areas like driveways when they get
       flooded so Here I'm in my mask and I'm basically herding a
       snapping turtle to safety using a stick. Its a boring video but
       "hey"! you get to hear me play electric guitar and we save a
       turtle's life in five minutes and twelve seconds with nothing
       but a stick.
       I didn't have anything but a stick with to move it and I'm not
       going to touch a snapping turtle with my guitar fingers! I would
       have preferred a different tool to move him with but I had to
       get it away from road fast so he wouldn't get crushed by a
       vehicle and all I had was a stick.. I figure it better to be
       poked by a stick a little than crushed by a UPS or fed ex
       truck...he wasn't harmed in any way... That's like the mask;
       while the mask might not be the most comfortable thing in the
       world, (like getting poked with a stick) it might be the only
       thing that will save your life or work at the time. Would ya
       rather wear a mask or get crushed by covid? Wear an
       uncomfortable mask!
       I play my electric guitar for you in this playing it safe Masked
       video I call "Herding Poseidon To Safety During a Plague"

       P.S. underneath my  bandanna is my mask/ respirator and it has a
       valve to freely exhale from for prolonged use and appropriate
       cartridges to filter out covid, airborne diseases, many viruses,
       as well as dangerous particles from occupational hazards as well
       as even preventing allergens. As usual these videos are created
       solely to encourage people and inspire people who wear the
       safety mask. In all the time Ive worn my mask for about five
       years strait now outside my home I haven't caught covid, strep,
       whooping cough, bird flu, influenza, RSV, or even so much as a
       cold and it helps reduce allergies and many contaminants from
       occupational hazards...
       ...what I do know for sure is that wearing a mask for five years
       straight when I go outside my door hasn't hurt my health
       whatsoever... in other words wearing a mask hasn't messed up my
       health or hindered my oxygen intake or none of that other anti-
       masking crud people who risk diseases tell ya.
