I hate crowds. I never trust the mob. I am always looking for escape routes.

Remember, people, this was not for food, this was not for life sustaining water, this was not to escape a burning building, nor poison gas, nor a terrorist threat.

This was for cheap(er?) stuff.

Nothing I need so badly that it cannot wait.

And just imagine the chaos in Long Island if there is actually a JIT (just in time) supply chain disruption on food.

We think alike. In hotels and other places with crowds, the first thing I look for is an escape route just in case there is a problem.

Many years ago, I took a date to a restaurant. We stumpled in on an armed robbery in progress. As they herded us into the dining room, I kept moving us closer and closer to the exit. We got out while it was still in progress.
