Maybe we're a little obsessed?

Its possible that he thought about God’s will.

He may have thought about market forces instead though.

Hard to figure that one out.

How does it feel? Walking around on the ground where my brothers bled. Remember Duc Duc? Remember the Phu Nans? Remember the Cu Bans? The An Hoa basin where the NVA slaughtered every living human.

I spent a couple years living on other people’s Y2K leftovers.

Are you in the North East? (I’m from Oregon, so North-East is everything east of Chicago and North of the Mason-Dixon Line).

[Hieronymus]

I take it you read tag lines. I can’t make out what his means, but I gather it’s personal.

Dad was in the Riverine, albeit on the large ship end of it.

[gunsequalfreedom]

Just south of you.

[SanchoP]

Oooops! Attribute it to brown liquor. Goodnight all.

[caww]

You mentioned masks

First 18 posts I read on FR and 11 are coronavirus related...

11 coronavirus related threads?

That's eight more threads than the number of home grown, CDC confirmed, COVID-19 cases.

I’m in Ontario now, but guessing that you are queuing off of Oregon, around the Emerald Triangle?

[FreeReign]

Don’t forget the MERS, Ebola and Y2K panics.

Don't forget the 1968 Flu Pandemic.

1 million people died.

[onona]

Don't forget your spray bottles from lowes and a whole bunch of IPA from your local pharmacy.

stick to the 70% IPA.

We have people trying to stir up unwanted panic. There are more people who have caught the disease and recovered than there are people who currently have the disease or who have died from it, and thats with the red Chinese barricading people into buildings without fresh water, food, or proper sewer facilities.

Y2K, Global Warming, Climate Change, H1N1, Coronavirus....
Just another in along string of fake catastrophes.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

Mad cow was in there too.

[caww]

Back at ya....

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Wasn’t there an impeachment somewhere along the line?

[ProtectOurFreedom]

It’s now about two miles from our house. Way too close for comfort.

It is important. It is also increasingly close to home.

I know!

I sprained a muscle in my butt but not sure it's coronavirus.

[Orosius]

Uncertainty, Fear, and Panic.

[Hieronymus]

They make 70% IPA? America usually has really weak beer.

Even in Canada you are hard pressed to get a beer over 8% and I doubt I’ve seen an IPA over 5.

Definitely better than whiskey.

It is important. It is also increasingly close to home.

Ooh, you're in Reno. A 3 hour drive away. I'm in the Bay Area, and not freaking out.
