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

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.

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.
