Yea its getting crazy. Everyone I have talked to online that has had it has gotten better so fingers crossed that more will kick this bugs ass!

I still dont get the run on toilet paper. :-k

I also hope all the asses that bought up hand sanitizers, tp, etc and then turn around and sell it for huge amounts of money get thrown in jail for taking advantage of people in a national crisis situation! I hate those people so bad! "Oh thats what business is about in America" - well that is what is WRONG with business in America.

Good to see you're doing good Knightrid!
I read the recovery rate is close to 98%!
Still 2% could be devastating!
So far, I do not know anyone who has been infected, personally or online!
I did see the story about the guy who bought 12,7xx bottles of sanitizer and tried to list them on ebay & amazon.
Which both stopped him and read all of his merchandise was seized by authorities!
Yeah, he was trying to exploit our capitalist world! :evil:

There is a person in one of the android games I play (Township) that has it and they were on the 3rd day and still felt like total garbage but was not hospitalized.

Wife still has to work with the public and up close to their faces with eyeglasses :( Bills need paid.

Just got our first 2 cases here in our county a day or so ago and they keep saying it is going to expand exponentially within days but I haven't really seen that.

Be safe and you can always use a washcloth to wipe your butt and then throw it in the wash machine :toimonster:

Its getting worse here everyday!
Schools, Auto industry, Restaurants are all closed or only doing delivery and curbside pickup!
Grocery stores are limiting hours and doing senior citizen only hour(s)
It is being advised Any gathering of more than 10 people be cancelled!
My niece has cancelled her bachelorette party and wedding shower!
She's already considering cancelling wedding ceremony and just get married at Justice of the Peace!
Hold reception at a later date!
I went to the grocery store today and there is NO Toilet paper!
The signs that say "Limit 2 packages per Customer" are useless!
:nut kick: :beatdeadhorse: :buttkick: Its getting crazy!

Yea the governor told every non-essential business to shut down here in Pennsylvania and then changed to all non-life sustaining business to close. People don't care. I get it in some cases because for one, people need to pay bills...NOW....not in 2 weeks not when the government sends money, NOW. Damn car loan company we have (Ally) sent a nice email saying we could defer our payment for up to 3 or 4 months (cant remember which) BUT interest would still add up. So big business still gets their money in the end.
For two - the biggest one of all - as long as walmart and the billion dollar companies can stay open then why can't the small businesses? Home Depot has nothing life sustaining.

I dunno, people just don't listen here in the USA anyway. STAY HOME...oh ok but I have to go get some hairspray first. Oh I forgot to get work gloves, I'll be back. Oh I need toilet paper, then a-holes grab 50 packs to try and resell at higher prices. Those people should go to jail and have to forfeit everything they own and have. They should be shot but god forbid.

Until they literally shut every single thing down and people have to live off of what they have it will continue to spread. Even the government allows more than 10 reporters in the same room and then they tell the regular Mary and Joe that you can't gather 10 people at a time. Practice what you preach!

Been getting worse here too. Wife will always have to work because it is Walmart ;)

There is too much still open to make a difference. People get tested for the virus and then go shopping! WTF! (saw that on news) They are making it spread slower with the little bit that is closed so it will take longer to get rid of it (I think).

To the people who have kids and think this is a great time to go to walmart to socialize and let the kids play, you are idiots. Do they think Walmart is a safe zone or something? This has been a public service announcement from Mike. :finga:

Fully expecting my son's high school graduation to be canceled. Its scheduled for May 10. Most schools around us have switched to e-learning until April 24th, for now mine are scheduled back on the 6th, betting it gets extended like the others.

I am thinking it will too. Hell the wife has to carry a letter around stating she is working in a life-sustaining industry and is allowed by law to go to work, just in case she gets pulled over as they are locking it all down. Kinda pre-war Germany!

Me too. Have my "papers" so I can get to work. Since my work is considered "essential" we don't qualify for that reimbursement from the government. We build and support heavy equipment for local, state, and federal divisions like State D.O.T.'s and Army Corps of Engineers. So we stay open to support/repair equipment as need. In a way sad, was looking forward to 30 days off when STL locked down the county. Happy, because wasn't looking forward to the whole not getting paid for half that time...

Still doing good here!
Worried about Mom though!
She's by herself and I'm the closest at 40-45min drive!
I was visiting her twice a week and now down to once a week.

No way - you wont get that $1200 or whatever it is? Wonder if my wife will since her job is considered "essential" too Well that would mean a lot of people wont get it....

Or are you talking about another reimbursement?
