Atarian7

There was toilet paper AND the Walmart wasn't burned to the ground? The times they are a-changin'.

For some reason I read that as "genetic refills"..

I'm sorry Atarian7, it's hard being told to stay in this long (if not for atari) when the world and the US seem in such upheaval.

An unknowingly infected person rides subway train, then when the infected person realizes he is infected, he must use a time machine to go back and ask everyone on the subway platforms and train to write down their names, addresses, and phone numbers.

No, that's not how it works. They're only asking for contact info of people you know personally, whom you've had extended close personal interaction with.

Now...Say you go around licking people's elbows, or getting excitedly into tickle fights with strangers, or playing thumb wars in front of 10,000 people, (maybe more)...Next thing ya know,  say you develop some symptoms...Now it's probably just allergies from putting guinea pigs up to your eyes even though you know you're allergic, or a cold from rubbing up against your hot female cousin while she strummed your banjo the other night at the hoedown...On second thought, You know, whatever I was saying,  I think I'll stop here;   Wouldn't want this to get silly...

Yeah, but ya got that little thing hanging out.  Also,   there's a cord coming from your mouse Hey O!  

I crack myself up!

I finally got a decent mouse on Amazon for about $14 (Inphic). Charges from USB port in under 2 hours and lasts over 2 months with daily use. It goes to sleep so you don't have to remember to turn it off and you can also use it while plugged in and charging. Liked it enough that I another for my desktop.

My old Mircosoft mouse ate up an AA alkaline battery every month and you had to remember to turn it off.

A mouse should have a tail.

Ask the three blind mice.

Shoot...

Every day of rain is one more day you can promise yourself you'll do it "tomorrow".

I've mowed all of my lawns once...A few nice days and one day was 43 degrees, but I needed to get it done...

FWIW,  That's 5 lawns and now it's raining here tonight too...

Yeah, I've had that happen.  A rat burrowed into the insulation in one of my walls and died there.

Left a wrapper from chicken in the trash can?  They can small awful after a day or two.  Good luck!

I only smelled it downstairs yesterday and today the smell seems to have dissipated.  I don't think I just got used to it because I couldn't

smell it upstairs where I sleep.

A gift card for professional counceling if the grief gets too bad?

Flowers always, but how about a favorite picture of her, nicely framed? Something like a 5x7 or 8x10.

Being there, or just knowing that you care if you're not nearby, will mean more to her than any gift. I'm sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your sister.

I am sorry. 

I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Sorry to hear that. 

Much too young, but hopefully a life fully lived.

I'm Sorry, Brother.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and words.

Do people still get the newspaper?

A little pricey but quality costs money.  Garbage in/garbage out.  

Give ground turkey a try if you haven't already. I did over 25 years ago and can count on one hand how many times I've bought ground beef since. Ground venison is excellent too.

Is there an Aldi near you?  They seem to be well stocked up in meats (not the best but ok).  Also, Aldi has high quality grass fed free range ground beef for like $5 a pound, so not too much more than regular ground beef.  It comes in small packs of one pound each.

fellow Marylander- ive seen people with scarves wrapped around their face, seems like anything goes

What's next?  Butt masks so we contain our farts?

A fart filter is an important part of your ensemble:

No candy for me - I am down 10 pounds the past 3 weeks, wife is down a bunch too.

I already bought a couple of chocolate rabbits at the dollar store....Yesterday I bit the ears offa one,...For old time's sake.

I have this theory.  (Sure, I'll put it here, why not?)  Maybe the reason the candy eyes of chocolate rabbits are always looking down or to the side, is so they're not looking directly at you when you bite their heads off.

We're having Chinese food tonight from the local chinese restaurant..........spicy beef lo mein, chicken lo mein, veggie fried rice, egg rolls

And supporting local delivery drivers, like yours truly, is also an Awesome idea!  Be safe everyone!

I've had some fast food takeout recently.

Yeah!!

Carlsson,   Happy Birthday you son of a biscuit!

Happy Birthday Big C!  

Belated thank you, all three of you. I honestly didn't see this status update. Perhaps it had worked better if you used the tagging function in the forum.

In the states at least November of 2019. Just learned my buddy had it last December.

Mid-to late November 2019, depending on whose story you believe. It only became newsworthy when the China outbreak happened.

Man made in the U.S., project shutdown, China took it over and let it loose.

Yes, I've witnessed that sometimes the box doesn't load, probably hiccups.

No problem for me so far.

Till they close too.

Walks into walmart, looks at water, long life food, and toilet paper, takes toilet paper

Around here, pizza and other frozen convenience foods were the first things to sell out. Besides toilet paper and hand sanitizer that is. Plenty of fruits, veggies and vitamin supplements on the shelves still.

Yeah people need to buy lots of TP for all that CRAP that's online...

I watched some dingbat pay gas station prices for 6 four packs of Charmin TP tonight. I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh.

In 2001, they lined up at gas stations like the 1970's gas crisis.  TP is 2020's version of gas.  All the stores around here are out of TP.

I just invest in a mutual fund, so I don't think I can do much more than put extra money as a one time influx towards shares of whatever the mutual fund stocks are. I don't really look into it too much, but I know I'm in the high risk high reward zone. I don't have the kind of money to bother any other way.

I think it's the rich people selling off.
