Unfortunately, some of those do want to infect other people. You know, those loving tolerant liberals that keep wishing us conservatives would die.

Sorry for the language (only in the title)

I predicted that, like the S-word, the F-word will be tolerated (maybe even widespread) on FR by 2030. Maybe I'll have to change that date a bit.

If you’re trying to share something with young people (30 and under), use the word to get attention.

Might save a life or two.

It's overused to the point where it's less attention-catching than it would've been. I haven't reported it, but it still may get your post removed from here.

Male in 30s. Yet another travel related.

Dang, we all said to stop planes and ships weeks or a month ago.

To heck with privacy. How about telling where this guy is from so his neighbors will know to not go out for more tp.

https://www.statesman.com/news/20200315/two-more-coronavirus-cases-confirmed-in-austin-health-officials-say

“Neither patient is an Austin resident, officials say. The woman’s case was linked to the Houston area, where she is from, and the man contracted the virus from outside the city. He was sent to an Austin-area hospital from an undisclosed rural part of the state.

City officials declined to say where the man is from because he’s from a small community and releasing details could “risk compromising the privacy of the patient.”

Yeah, I was wondering if those temporary hospitals are being taken down or are falling down....

I could not find those comments (buried by now?)

Why did they not want to test him?

Local (mid-south, town of ~25k) Wally World not too busy at 8 am this morning. Stock supply situation a bit better than last couple days in some areas, worse in others. Last of TP was “going”. Did score the last two 32 oz. bottles of Equate brand hand sanitizer and there were several 8 oz. bottles left (did not buy). Dry cereals nearly wiped out (bagged have been out for a while.) Stocking activity seemed quite modest. Ran past Aldi @ ~8:30 just to see if anyone was waiting outside (they open @ 9 a.m.). No one waiting, and I had no big need to, so I headed home.

I think the panic buying will die down this week as people gain confidence that supplies will not be disrupted.

God Bless our Truckers!

Those St. Louis TV stations have websites...

https://www.stationindex.com/tv/markets/st.+louis

I checked a couple - plenty of news content. I was really surprised at how “spartan” KMOV’s site is. Many small town stations sites are a lot “jazzier” (for better or worse).

Thanks for the link. I hadn’t even thought of their websites, daa.(and I’ve been building website for over ten years) Not quite the same as seeing their facial expressions when they talk about Trump but it tells me what they’re reporting at least. Missouri is very low key and conservative and somewhat behind the times techwise.
