Wait. What? A spike in cases after opening up? Who’da thunk it?

Drive yourself. Pack meals from home. Make potty stops off the highway behind a tree. Wear gloves to pump gas.

Better to just stay home and teleconference.

There’s a huge difference between hoarding and staying prepared.

People used to dress in the Sunday best to fly and most people behaved themselves. Stewardesses would treat passengers like kings and the food was at least 4 star. I still have a coach class dinner menu that is gold embossed and embroidered. Everyone had leg and butt room. If you wanted to stretch your legs, there was a nice piano lounge and a wall aquarium.

“Staying prepared” is getting what you need for the near future.

“Hoarding” is getting what you need for the long term.

I recommend both.

I remember the first time I flew, I think I was 11, and my mother took me to Flah's (like Nordstrom at that time in the Northeast) and bought me a new dress to fly in.

I miss that country and culture.

I am going to order the high dose zinc, and the HCQ and Z-Pac if I can find a reputable distributor. Make up a packet of Zelenko 5 day treatment for my family members and closest friends.

Some phones do much more than trace your movements.

I used to have a friend I talked with in Starbucks. He had his phone OFF the whole time. Afterwards, I would get ads for things that the phone thought we had talked about, like the ones you get on Drudge Report linked to your personal messages. They hook onto a key word and try to make some money off of you.

Of course the phones can be used for other purposes too.

There are other problems in NYC. That thread from a hospital nurse tells part of the story. We’ll get to the reasons why at a later point, I suppose.

What kills me the most is that some people are pointing out that the numbers are down, therefore we didn't need the recommendations after all.

A plea for compassion.

Somehow I thought Americans would rally together to fight this attack. Silly me.

I remembered some hoary old passage from something called the Sermon on the Mount and thought maybe people would do even more than they were asked to.

And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

Looks like Limbaugh and company have won the battle.

Interesting...

North Dakota, 762,062 population, 33 deaths
Hawaii, 1,416,000 population, 17 deaths

Hawaii has twice the population as ND, with all the people crammed on a few ‘rocks’ in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. You have public transportation, people living on top of each other in a very urban setting, etc. Hawaii also has a very LARGE number of older people/retirees. Also, lots of tourists from Asia. It’s also a transportation hub. Yet, they have about half the number of deaths compared to North Dakota, which compared to most of the country, is the middle of nowhere and social distancing should be the norm. Vitamin D & sunshine HAS TO have something to do with the death rate.

Also, for those not familiar with Hawaii, central air conditioning is not common in homes. The cost of electricity is much too expensive and most houses built before the 1980s are uninsulated. Most people rely on the trade winds (cool ocean breeze), open windows, and ceiling fans.
