I would rather not just rely on hand sanitizer. dont know how much i need.how long it has to stay on( awhile) etc.

SO that is why i use paper towels.

but will turn to a glove. they are so cheap at costco

Bullscheisse!

I have never trusted any ChiCom numbers in the past, and I sure as hell won’t trust them about this virus!

it honestly makes me furious. People don’t need to fight over food. The stores aren’t going to close tomorrow. It’s crazytown.

I have stories though. I am sorry to say I have been used for drug deals before. Pick up woman up. She is carrying a bag. She gives me an address in the projects, says wait here, goes to a door, hands over the bag and is given some cash, gets back in and has me take her back.

I mean maybe she was just delivering a sandwich but I doubt it.

I don’t tell this story to brag as though it’s so cool, as I’d have preferred not to have that ride and I disapprove of drug abuse and it could put me in a predicament. But I can’t be demanding to know what people carry in bags or who gave who how much money for what. It is truly not my business.

OTOH I picked up a nice lady who asked was it ok that I was taking her to pick up her medical marijuana that she had a prescription card for. She was willing to take another cab if I objected. I thought that was very considerate. I didn’t feel compromised or endangered and we had a nice ride.

Got pulled over in NH for a headlight tonight. It isn’t the headlight, it’s the connector. Explained it to the PO, showed him the useless spare headlight. he sent me on my way after running my info. But, still, I got pulled over for a headlight.

This man’s family would probably disagree with you.

My local schools as of today are closed until April. Not statewide, some are longer/shorter. Kids were excited until they learned they still have to do school work.

Actually, the Germans prefer the expression “Pferdscheiße.”

Whew!

Thank you for that very personal report, from Your World.

Be sure and let POTUS know your findings.

(And, don’t forget to tip FR, on your way out.)

Dr Oz says that using spray bleach cleaner and letting it dry for four minutes is better.

DO NOT GET BACK IN YOUR CAR WHILE FILLING YOUR TANK!!!!
I have seen the aftermath of that one. Static electricity will ignite the gas fumes. It will not be pretty.

Hubby’s truck is diesel....smells terrible, if it gets on your hands/clothes/boots.

He usually keeps several of my food prep gloves in the side pocket of his door.

But, whichever least expensive gloves you can find should work.

That’s what everyone should do.....now.
