Why do you care so much as to what others are doing, are you not able to purchase a rack of ribs or some baby formula? Personally I never rally sweat what other folks are doing as long as I don't have a problem taking care of myself, that hasn't happened yet. You seem to worry about shoppers and websites enough for the both of us, kind of comical to me. I'll just concern myself with minding my own business.

Smokin' in AZ , nice job on that John, well done! RAY

True I give you that.

I just prefer to share and make sure that everyone gets some as opposed to hoard things, especially perishable items.
Hahah apperantly the local booze store SPECS just ran out of vodka. People are buying it to clean hands without realizing that unless it's 65%+ then it won't do much good and just provide a false sense of security.

If you are deciding to head to booze store for hand sanitizer then get everclear or anything higher than 70% I e 140 proof.

I talked yesterday with the woman who took over my job at the trade show/exposition co. I was with before I retired in '18 (Operations/Production Mgr.). They had three major shows cancelled in Columbus, OH. They have another one later this month in Indy that's on the fence. Roughly $2,000,000 in revenue gone. They have a "rainy day" fund but that's a lot of rain for a small company.
30 some people with their livelihoods at stake. This is going to have repercussions beyond the health issues....

Oh hell it will. Houston rodeo just cancelled and there is talk of postponing the Olympics in Japan.


Also Trump might be infected and he is in the danger group for this disease. He is within the age group and he has many comorbidies that make him especially sensitive to the viral symptoms.


Now I just wonder how many Charmin double ply ultra soft will a rack of good baby ribs cost?

Hahaha...just heard they are cancelling the election, trump gets four more years. Oh the things you hear

Like you, my father (86) is trying to seclude himself in PA and avoiding most social events even some as small as his local pot luck dinner. He has a restrictive lung issue (copd like) and other slight issues, he knows if he gets it, it won't end well. I won't even see him when I go to my house near him as I have a ton more interaction with people down here in Long Island.

I didn't really have to change much;
I already haven't been going anywhere the last couple years, and I quit driving 2 years ago, because there's no telling when I'm going to have a Dizzy spell or nearly black out. I wouldn't want to take anybody down with me. I'd like to last a little longer, and not let this one take me down just yet.

OMG! Not the Houston Rodeo!
I knew about the Olympics, the cruise ship industry and the airline industry and the NCAA not allowing audiences and the NBA cancelling games and many others including the worldwide stock markets, but not the Houston Rodeo!!!
My point was that there are many smaller companies and everyday people that are already feeling serious pain in this nation (and the world) . You post silly pics....

What should I do? Panic? I am trying to offer levity in current situation. In the end there is nothing you can do besides washing your hands and/or staying home. There is a high chance that unless vaccine is created then in the end everyone will most likely get it and either get over it or not. The R0 is high enough for that event to occur and it's infection distance is within 12 feet to an infected person. It doesn't help that the person is shedding a virus during asymptomatic phase of the disease....thus becoming a super spreader.


Here I can post a non silly pic and spread the fear further. There you go, just for you.

But no worries CDC is about to declare national emergency with that the gov can freeze banks, and deploy national guard to augment the local law enforcement.

Save your time and energy John, going back over this thread tempnexus deleted everything he had to say. The guy has most likely never smoked much else other than a crack pipe, been caught in one lie after another. I just clicked his bio button and pressed the "ignore" button, I'm sure I'll suffer immensely if it turns out he's ever got anything worthwhile to offer, tho I doubt it. RAY
