Didn't realize that MGM owned that much, Winn closing his also.

I think he's right.

I'm not sure why he (or you) thinks it will hurt Trump.

My neighbors and I made plans today on how we can have picnics on the lot across the street that is not totally cleared and on a lake. We've had shrimp boils there before, but now it would be bring your own food.

It’s relevant that our population is so much greater, and that we do have the benefit of an opportunity at a head start. Perhaps also that we tend to not live on top of each other.

Of course it is also relevant that our present numbers are artificially low, and perhaps significantly. And that the response is being led by states, local governments, institutions, businesses and individuals (with no coherent federal response or plan seeming to be forthcoming).

As well it should be. The pictures of Spring Break and various shit are infuriating.

Agreed. I havent left my house since Friday night's grocery store run to stock up. Working from home today might include taking the dogs for a walk later but I have no plans to gather with anyone at all unless absolutely necessary.

Oh, and I found out that a woman who.was at the Seton.Hall vs. Creighton game tested positive for coronavirus, which means that anyone else who was at that game (me, my wife and my youngest kid) is eligible to get tested if we feel symptoms so I guess I will count myself "lucky" to be eligible for the test if I want it.

Working from home today. Weather ain't bad. Fired up the smoker with a big ole pork butt. Sammiches tonight and tacos tomorrow.

How much TP does one need to hoard? Grocery store was completely out yesterday.

I got up to go to the grocery store @4:00 this morning. Everything white -- milk, toilet paper, etc. -- still wiped out. Soap/sanitizer aisle looks like old pics of the Soviet Union.

I saw that she attended TWO games and then spent "several hours" afterward at various bars.

Ugh.
