This corona shit is getting wild & out-of-control!

I went to 7 different stores in springfield this week..no water/toilet paper and wet wipes! Ugghhhh!! Good thing my frideg & cabinets are full and I have some toilet paper [for now}

I am at home this week and was supposed to go on tour down to new orleans and the south this coming saturday...but I am not sure now...the casino I had booked,called me to cancel my reservation! They are closing for 2 weeks...and I have a casino date in Mississippi week after next but those casinos closed too.

I guess if I do not go,then I will just make a trip next week back to KC to visit yall!


So I am not normally a panic buyer or hoarder...BUTTTTT hmmmm maybe I should be more serious about it??
what are your thoughts or opinions or experiences??

I've seen some things where ethnic markets aren't being ransacked, so like your Asian or Mexican grocer.

I have to ask myself should we be panicking or is it just another panic set off by media
You know you can make your own baby wipes out of paper towels

also to disinfect I would just take alcohol and water it down a little bit hope this helps
and as far as traveling what I'm doing is the next two week stay in driving distance away from home and after that going a little farther out where it will be tourist attractions so there will be less cancellations and less regulations on traveling

This morning's news announced that in Germany the Brothels are closing down. No word yet about the French Brothels, but they are expected to close too.

They have also announced that one of the ways to avoid the virus is to rub raw garlic all over your body: it helps to keep your social distance from people.

Well as far as food goes, I am sure the Vegan isle is fully stocked. Most will turn to cannibalism before they eat that crap.

I got/have had a month+ of MREs and Mountain House! AND, each MRE has toilet paper!

It looks like we got a three month extension from IRS!

Ta Da!

Don't water down the alcohol unless you're starting with Everclear. It needs to be 100-120 proof (50-60%) to make a good sanitizer.

LOL!!!
Kansas schools are now closed for the year. It is serious, but not panic level. As long as there is not a run on covers. LOL
I work in a field that currently...probably gives me a little more insight regarding what is actually developing. Like husker said we don’t need panic. However we do need to be diligently working to flatten the curve. Stay safe.

Rubbing alcohol strong as you can find it & bleach are my dearest friends right now. Ladies and gents please excuse the dry hands they are being washed like crazy in lots of sanitizing soap for your feeling pleasures lol. Dallas I have a kitty for you when you get hungry. 💋 Independence and Raytown schools have also closed I'm not for sure how long at least till April next month of course
