"I'm NOT Infected"
 
I was in line at our local Walmart and a lady coughed near me...

She shouted, "I'm NOT infected... it's just bronchitis!"

Signs of the times.

STILL.. plenty of food at our Walmart....but people are crazy buying...

Sheesh !

I appreciate you keeping us posted. I'll be looking out my window and hoping my delivery people aren't contagious, since I'm a high risker (old diabetic with COPD).

There is going to be a ripple effect very soon. This is only day 7, counting last Friday the 13th when the American National Emergency was declared.

One of the kids from my old neighborhood, who grew up with my daughters, had a two part punch to her throat (living) the first was the restaurant when she was a waitress and made good tips closed, then the dance academy where she taught dance part time closed.

Happened overnight.

She is emblematic of the coming problem, we just hope this isolation keeps our hospitals at manageable levels for those who need them. They will be filling up quickly.

I Just Got 25 Pounds of Bread Flour Delivered
 
Hey Millard,

You and I Should Work out some ways to do MAGIC over Zoom.

We Could Show something to the owner of the Magic Forum
You Told me about.

Magic Strategies That he Could SHARE with Magicians wanting to Make Some Bucks doing VIRTUAL B-Day Parties and Gigs.

Glenn

P.S. - The little Girl who Delivered my Box didn't get the memo.

To be Polite - She Handed me the Box.

SHEESH.

Had to Wash my hands.

She was INCREDULOUS when I told her the heavy box was Bread Flour.

I was running Low.

AND the Bread Machine I bought is out of stock.

***And The Previous Company I bought SPELT Flour (Durham wheat Gives me Joint Pain) From was Sold out.

So I found another.

***The Rocket Stove I got is out of stock.

***The Cast Iron WOK I got is sold out.

YOU can see a TREND here.

Of course.

My hope is in a few weeks the Panic will ease off and sellers will catch up.

P.P.S. - Is it true Amazon is hiring a few 100 Thousand New Employees to
keep up with Demand?
