Yesterday SLO county went to "shelter in place"; all schools are closed til next school year (Sept), non-essential businesses closed, restaurants open only for take out and delivery. Blah blah blah. This a.m. I go out to pay a car payment, get gas and possibly hit a store for a few items. It's like Christmas shopping season, traffic and every place is packed to the gills. Walmart, Albertsons packed. So I figure I'll swing by Trader Joe's, LOL, can't even get on to the street it's on. I did make the car payment

I just talked (by phone) with a neighbor farmer, who is an elder Italian gentleman that immigrated here decades ago to open an italian restaurant in our little mtn town, sold the restaurant 8 years ago and bought a pot farm. He says he keeps up with things back home thru reading his towns facebook page. He said usually there are 6 or 7 obituaries on the page.....today there are 6-7 pages.:sad:

DMV put off renewals for 60 days. I do it online anyway, but I might hold onto my money for awhile. Edit: I looked into it and it isn't for "normal" renewals that can be done online, just for "complex" ones, or new plates. My apologies.

Guess I should start getting the mail out of the box with tongs...
Yeah, they say it dies on the way but then the mail girl touches it and who knows where she's been.

I guarantee she's been somewhere because she's a hot blonde and smiles and waves at everybody.

Please don't infect my mail girl, looking out the window at mail time is the highlight of the day.

40% to 60% projected to get this in Allegheny County, where Pittsburgh is. I'll be hanging out here in the sticks. 2 confirmed cases in my county now but it's a huge county.

Gotta go, mail girl is driving up.

I would consider myself a mild prepper. Plus I have tons of backpacking/survival gear.

About a month ago I had my wife go to costco and stock up hard. She was sick at the time and complained about taking the girls on an unnecessary trip for my crazy ass.

Who's laughing now?! My gingerly cleaned asshole, that's who! 4 ply Charmin, baby. You could eat off this butthole.

her: why is there always boxes of bulk ammo being delivered to our door?

Also her: ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I see.

@curious2garden When they take the nasopharyngeal swab sample of a suspected Covid-19 patient, do they have to change out all their PPE for each patient?
They are doing drive up testing here. Talk through car window and only roll down when time for swab. We are on conservation mode on PPE supplies. We were sent brown lunch bags to store our N95 masks between uses. Apparently they can be used 5 times before we throw them out. Idk bout that but those decisions are way above my pay grade...
