I just got back from the grocery store where I went to pick up a few items and holy crap... there was plenty of everything on the shelves. Yes, even toilet paper and such staples as bread, eggs and milk, etc. You could tell a few items had been picked over a little more than normal but then again it was 10:30 AM on a Sunday so they may have just not got restocked from the usual Saturday rush.
Maybe that's the difference between living in a small town in rural Kansas and the big city. Sorry for all you city folk.

Just reading some local news. Store in New Kensington Pa completely sold out shelves bare from picture. Another story news crew went to as store saw some products remaining so they bought them. Then took picture of bare shelves. 2 guys bought hand sanitizer in Ohio and WV,started selling on Amazon and Ebay.Amazon and ebay closed their accounts. Article said guys are stuck with 70k bottles of sanitizer. If you believe media! Is it greed?

Insider trader STOCK TIP for you investors. Buy as many shares as you can in Calamine Lotion. People who run out of toilet paper and cannot get any will be running out into the woods to grab assorted leaves.
Yep, they won't know which are which and you can bet more than a few will be grabbing poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. Well, I think you know what the results are gonna be. To sooth that uncomfortable situation at hand, the government and FEMA are already stocking up on calamine lotion. "Calamine lotion is an over-the-counter (OTC) medication that's used to treat mild itchiness, also called pruritus. It can also help dry out oozing skin irritations. This soothing pink lotion can help relieve the following skin conditions: reactions to poisonous plants, such as poison oak, poison ivy, and poison sumac." Get in now at the super low stock options and watch your money grow as America, and I suppose the world, learns what the best leaves are to grab when wiping your butt. They should have been watching Euell Gibbons back in the 70's, or at least the re-runs on TV, and they would've picked the right leaves to wipe with, and know which ones to snack on. |

I hope that we will learn to not put all of our eggs in one basket. Peole say that ground zero for a pandemic can eminate from anywhere. But I don't believe that a country like Canada or the US would have the same propensity to incubate a disease like this. Simply put, we have standards. They don't. Then, we created an even bigger problem by making their economy strong and having them controlling manufacturing. So hopefully this will be a clarion call and it won't go back to business as usual.

Ohio has just shut down all bars and restaurants as of 9:00 PM tonight, carry out/drive thru, and delivery is still available. They want no sit down dining inside of the establishments.
During the news conference they cited the same graph that was in the article that Bart has posted. Evidently the staying at least 6 feet from each other is their barrier that will stem the tide of spreading the virus. They have waved the 1 week waiting period for unemployment benefits for people temporarily being laid off due to the Wuhan virus. I'm not politically correct, and call it from where it started from, same as Ebola, Rocky mountain spotted fever, and all the rest. It's the Wuhan virus. A reporter just asked the governor, if they closed all the bars and restaurants, why wouldn't the postpone the elections in Ohio? The answer wasn't very good saying that people didn't have to be close together to vote, and could spread out during voting.............

I spoke with a major manufacturing rep in the paper industry tonight, in person. The supply line is very solid and he sees full re-supply in 2 weeks max outside of major metro areas where the hoarding might continue.
There has been arrests and refusal to sell TP on amazon and ebay due to the price gouging. He mentioned the pasta sauce and Noodles and mac and cheese and soups are going the same way, but he said that is due to schools being closed. Those too are an easy re supply. There are folks with 10,000 bottles of santizer they cant sell on line now, that hoarded it. In a month or 6 weeks, Sanitizer and TP will be back...... |

LOL, now I can see the napkin thing! Folks sitting around the boob tube, hyperventilating, eating like a bunch of animal slobs, believing everything they hear.
There’s 365 plus scriptures in the Bible, that say “Do not be afraid!!!”

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
