60+ year old thread.

you guys all be careful out there!!!

 

Thanks Sue. You be careful as well. Seems the talking heads on TV have gotten people wound up. Only a couple (that we have heard about) of people down here that have been suspected and they were taken to quarentine immediately. We head home in 2 weeks so hope things die down a bit by then. You just be careful and safe.

 

Evening all:

Supposedly reported cases in Monroe County, just heard mention of a local case also here in Carbon County, just saw one case in Northampton County.
Just was in the town grocery store, shelves are bare where the TP was! See, if I was smart, I should have bought a truckload at first mention of the virus and sold it for $10.00 a roll to those in need!

 

Even Amazon is out of some toilet paper stocks... and with it being the end of winter leaves are out of the question.

 

Think back before disposable diapers and wipes.... wash cloth's and diaper pails

 

Before TP, pages from Sears and Wards catalogs were used. Unfortunately those catalogs are just a memory. And if you did have a hundred year old Sears catalog it would be worth $$$.

 

Morning all. Another day of Corona Virus response planning for me. The hardest issue is keeping people calm and rational. People who I never thought had a crazy streak are popping up.

Have a safe weekend!!!

 

It’s was nuts in the store last night.
We go on Thursday because it is slow.
The lot was full.
Isles were full.
Myself and 3 other ladies were just standing in the TP isle and laughing.
Yesterday morning going to work I saw a guy walking that had 4 big packages of TP on his
Shoulders.

 

Cold Ken, Very Cold. LOL Think I will leave this here.

I made the mistake of going to Costco, first time shopping there, on Tuesday at 12:30 in the afternoon. Big mistake.

 

Good Morning Folks . TGIF.

Thank you Coronavirus.

 

I see crazy on both sides. Some people buying truckloads of TP, others knowingly exposed to the virus and going about their lives as if they weren't. Crazy is as crazy does.

 

Only one in the media mentioning death toll of normal flu being worse has been the morning guy on the redneck radio. More die in the US in a month than have died the last few months of this virus.
A good winter storm predicted starting tonight thru Monday, but TV forecast vs radio vary for impacted area.
Supposed to get my septic tank pumped this AM, give me a break from digging muck out of a trench to see where my distribution box is. Finally dawned on me later yesterday that the way the tank may be designed, as I try to lower the effluent level in my trench, it is siphoning water out of the tank. Doh!
How a good day y'all.

Well then how would you expect us old farts to get into our trucks

A running start ?

 

True, True, some Colorado school districts have added an extra week or two to their spring break (affects approx 325,000 students). Our state colleges have gone to online classes for the rest of the year. The National Guard has been called into action to assist with the drive-in virus testing. As Mark said, " The hardest issue is keeping people calm and rational."

 

Running becomes more difficult with age.

 

I worked on a ranch the first summer out of high school, where we used a Wards catalog in the outhouse. It didn't work as well as TP.

I don't understand how the TP panic results from the covid situation, anyway.

 

Ok a push start then.. Lol
