When you shop again and if there is toilet paper on the shelf you should buy another pack even though you are 'all set now for a few months.' TP doesn't spoil, doesn't need refrigeration and you WILL eventually need it if you have the space to store it. |

Sheldon's being his usual silly self. Mom always had a rag bag. Her mother had a rag bag. They didn't have things like Swiffer dusters back in the day. Feather dusters didn't do anything but shuffle dust around. Old sheets, towels, t-shirts were used for dusting and polishing furniture, washing the windows, etc. Jill |

Old cloth diapers are even better. I ran out of those about a hundred years ago but am often tempted to buy a few dozen new ones (assuming they still make them). The best rags ever. |

Absolutely, Joan. This is a unique situation. I cannot recall a time in my life when most people were ordered to stay home and school has been cancelled indefinitely. Parents who never gave a thought to home-schooling are suddenly having to do it. Everyone's at home so of course they're using more TP at home. Maybe they're trying to use less of it but the fact remains, suddenly everyone in the house is at home 24/7. > toilet paper and paper towels they can.

I don't know about the size of the packs when it comes to a limit per. I do know I saw some people really stocking up as early as the beginning of March, well before anyone really knew how big this thing was going to be. I saw a woman buying 3 twelve roll packs. That's all she bought. Prescient? I surely never thought it would get this bad. I think if Sheldon has 300 rolls of toilet paper stashed in his basement he should be a pal and send me a few rolls. ;) Jill |

I don't go off anywhere and leave either one running. But I do use those stainless steel wrapped water hoses for the washing machine. They will not guarantee them to not burst as there has only been one incident of them actually failing. But it's the only time I've read about one bursting. The dryer is not left to run with no one in attendance either. But I am scrupulous about cleaning that lint filter. |

I always laugh when people say, "It couldn't get any worse." Imagine if Trump got sick and died. Then Pence would become president.

Another uh oh. He not wearing a mask as to fend off this panic created by the news media. He said that. Same with Jimmy Carter in 1979 with the 3-Mile Island nuclear plant fail. Carter visited that soon after as to stem the meltdown panic and show that he wasn't worried and no one else should be too. Keep in mind too. President has to deal with this medical situation but he also has to consider the economic situation. Medical "experts" would love to have everyone stay at home for another year. Meanwhile, only after 2 months of supposed isolation, people are going insane, losing their jobs, business can't survive the lack of income and many are shutting down. In real life, you have to make a comprimise between people staying home and people getting back to work. You can't have both. Either extreme solution will result in failure. |

The news media misquotes Trump all the time and calls him crazy, but: There is a medical procedure that injects a disinfectant into the blood stream of a patient to kill pathogens. The disinfectant is Hydrogen Peroxide. There is a medical procedure that nebulizes a disinfectant and introduces it into the lungs of a patient to kill pathogens. The disinfectant is Hydrogen Peroxide. It has been proposed, before Trumps comments, to nebulize alcohol and introduce it into the lungs of a patient as a disinfectant. There is a medical procedure which takes blood out of a patient's body, exposes it to UV light to kill pathogens, and returns it to the patient's body. There is a medical procedure which uses a UV emitting medical device inserted into the airway or a patient to use UV light to kill pathogens. |

Lots of people keep booze in the house for "Medical Purposes"... perfect sanitizer and painkiller. Wasn't all that long ago when a barber was the local doctor/dentist and they'd administer booze for killing pain and disinfecting. The old cowboy movies used booze when extracting a bullet. |

I read an article many, many years ago where an AIDS patient went overseas, don't ask me which country, and had this procedure done. At the time the cost to him, not covered under insurance, was $35,000. After 'cleansing' he was completely AIDS-free. |

I saw a mention on the local news just this morning. Local restaurants here (supposedly only the oceanfront ones), just got the go ahead to open up again just in time for the tourist season. They are adding a "Covid tax" of 2.something percent to their bills. Really? Cheap greedy turds. Just being able to open again is not good enough. They want to charge people extra. Also...it's not a govt. tax. Just extra fee for them. They claim it's to cover the cost of extra cleaning. I hope they all fail and go out of business. |

That's been in the news at least two weeks and it's just not Virginia Beach. Many customers are squawking about it and I don't blame them. |

There's a bucket for discarding the shrimp and crab shells and corn cobs. A roll of cheap brown (butcher paper) on the table. If they'd added locally made link sausage to the mix you'd have been eating Frogmore Stew. ;) Jill |

That'll really impress them. > And mowing was like mowing wet salad! But now my yard is MOWED! :-) Homeowner's responsibility. Most knowledgeable and responsible homeowners wait until late afternoon to mow. It gives the dew a chance to dry and not make a chopped up mess of your lawn and a filthy wet grass lawnmower to clean. If you'd been out looking for a job, which you really don't want, that would have given your yard a chance to dry out. > And I put MYSELF through engineering school and nursing school! > John Kuthe... Yet you can't find a job in either field. |
