    Pro, nothing

    Con, my wife has a childhood blood disease that puts her at high risk. I've gone out of my way to minimize the risks for her for the last week and a half, today she went to get a milkshake...

    Face palm to the milkshake...
    But as someone who's lived my whole life in a similar situation sometimes you just say fuck it and get the milkshake..
    What's she have if I may ask?
    The disease not the milkshake ..

    I am avoiding restaurants, however, the seasonal fried seafood place .7 miles away just opened for the season
    and I love their haddock sandwiches. I am going to take a chance but I'll skip the sandwich and get a basket or plate
    so nothing but fried food they won't be touching. I need my Clam Haven in the spring.

    Can you pick me one up and make a road trip to deliver me one? Gas is cheap. You have a fuel efficient vehicle. I’ll tip ya a couple of rolls of TP?

    Scratch that.

    Apparently they're closing public roads now. US129 just got shut down in NC.

    Welcome to your new police state. What's next? Road side inspections to check your papers?

    Pros- I'm still working my main FT job, doing practically nothing and getting paid for it.
    I'm not sick, not even a URI- common cold.
    Gas prices
    no traffic
    Cons- What this hype and hysteria is doing to the US and world economies.
    The 'other side of the aisle' is orchestrating this to take advantage of this for their own gains.
    People getting hysterical over a newer strain of a relatively common pathogen.
    my wife has fully bought into the hype, and makes me take my scrubs off at the door, and throws them in the washer and washes them immediatly- What a waste of good water. She tries to get me to shower too! It's like I told her, I showered last week. ;-)
    My son on the Autism Spectrum dislikes the little bit of virtual/skype classes he has to do.

    I'm not sure you got what I'm saying. :D
    Isn't this thread supposed to compare how things are with the virus to how they normally are?

    Phl218 .

    “temperature”

    which will turn into chips
    Which will turn into “wrong chip, yer not going nowhere”

    but we all had the freedom to stay at home and not watch the 5G towers installations happening.

    Yesterday I worked in the yard. Phil came over and we had a beer. Then I had like 3 more. Then I may, or may not, have accidentally burned one.
    Then I got The Broncho out and went out on a twenty mile hellion ride on our back country roads and chuckled my ass off. No I was no danger to anyone else. Yes I broke laws. And yes I giggled my ass off the whole time.
