Greetings my friends, it seems as though its time to once again share one of those website overview narratives as we head away from 2021 into a hopefully much better 2022. While it was clear that 2020 was a very difficult year for everyone, there were only some measures of improvement over the course of 2021 but that would find some people thinking outside the box a little bit more and doing things that they never envisioned themselves doing. I’m speaking about work and keeping creative in very uncertain time for the most part. This leads me to share that instead of doing an overview on PiercingMetal and then on Piercing Ken I will now be briefing the readership audience right here because we now have another website to discuss in Ken Pierce Media as well. I will start with the place it all began and since this is the first time putting it all together this will be shorter than in previous years.

Presenting Our “Reddit Recap” For 2021
This narrative is a new kind of broadcast for me and is going to share one of the year-end rundowns that was received. I don’t know how many of you use the Reddit network but I’ve been signed up for a couple of years now and will admit that I’m still a bit of a novice. That being said, here are the screen grabs of the rundown from last year. I hope you enjoy it. I like their notion of looking back and moving forward in their service.

Mayor DiBlasio Issues Statement on Omicron Variant
Just a short time ago, the New York City Mayor Bill DiBlasio issued a statement regarding the brand-new variant of the Covid-19 coronavirus. This variant is called the “Omicron Variant” and his statement is below.
Ken Pierce Media Thoughts: This is scary news because only a few short days ago was when the larger region of US folks only learned of the new variant but it was in Africa at the time and not here. Not only is it here but it was some weeks ago based on this report. Having attended this amazing convention I can say that it was crowded (which you can see in one of my Instagram photos down below). However, with that being said the crowd all had masks on unless they were eating or drinking. This was from my own observation of course so kudos to those who did right by the rest of the community at this event. To enter you had to have a valid vaccination proof and wear a mask. With the alarm being raised by our usually useless Mayor I say that I agree its a good idea to be tested just in case this individual came to the event already infected. My workaday world requires that I get tested 2x a week to be on the job so I’ve already had four tests since that convention and am okay. I’d love to know that all of our friends are okay as well. Stay healthy, maintain some distance, wear a mask and by all the powers that be please get vaccinated.
