    Have you ever heard what Hacker has to say on the subject?

    Bars and restaurants are closed down, but other than that, no. But people are on a self-imposed lockdown. Traffic is light on the streets. Grocery stores are the only busy places.

    Yesterday a city building inspector came over to inspect a new air conditioning unit for my house that was installed last week. It's outside next to the side of the house and piped into the furnace inside the house. Ordinarily he would inspect the outside unit and the connections inside, but he said he was only going to inspect the outside.

    Being on lockdown would not be terribly difficult for me. My job has closed down for the time being, but we'll get by OK.

    If they are sufficiently excited, yes.

    Yes.

    My warehouse has round-the-clock security.

    My Dearborn Girls have Major Connections (through the Imam at The Mosque) to provide security to make sure that our stockpiles aren't raided.

    We live outside the city limits. But no, no lockdown. The county in which we live in Central Florida is about 1200 square miles in size. There are officially 3 known cases of Covid19 and no deaths in the whole county. What bugs me is the hoarding. This is a minor virus compared to something like Ebola, not an earth shaking catastrophe. The supply lines are not disrupted nor will they be. So hoarding is absurd.

    Your choice. I, on the other hand, have no need to declare anyone's religion or lack there of as wrong, bad or evil as long as they harm none. If it fills a part of them or you, then I'm good with it.

    I cannot think of any religion that doesn't harm anyone but my reasons for denouncing "my" religion was because
    1. Hocus-pocus & superstition is not something I want to employ in my life
    2. I decided not to continue paying tax to a church where the indoctrination I so much disagree with.

    We're having rain and a crazy late-March "cold" front. In two days, the temperature is supposed to hit 90. That's Spring in Central Texas.

    Update.

    Kaiser Evers just shutdown the state. Yesterday I went shopping with my mom, I'm the pack mule, and I noticed paper goods were gone down there and stores are quiet. No kids anywhere. Customers practice social distancing but not the workers...

    Is this one of those horror/science fiction type movies? I tend to shy away from those. Maybe that's why I never heard of it.

    Doesn't matter. With Willis, Stowe, and Pitt, it's probably pretty good. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 90% rating.
