I won't bother posting what I really think, because it would violate HTF policies with extreme prejudice. It is going to get a lot worse before it gets any better. Schools are going to be spreading the virus like wildfire, or whatever spreads even faster than wildfire. Regarding the point...

Without getting too much into politics, I fully expect that at some point in the future, there are going to be new laws and regulations regarding public safety during things such as a pandemic (this isn't the last one the world will face) that are going to make these types of mandates...

How am I dealing with the COVID-19 virus situation? Kind of freaking out about the current statistics for the greater Houston area. I was fairly paranoid about the whole situation as it developed and the current chart profiles aren't assuaging my concerns. Just kind of playing a waiting game...

To anthropomorphize the COVID-19 virus just a bit, it doesn't care what the living conditions are where you live. Even in states that differ vastly, wherever there are dense population settings, even on a small scale, guidelines involving social distancing, testing, and contact tracing should...

I could not disagree more strongly. If there was a competent response to the pandemic at the federal level, uniform guidelines would have been implemented, and the chaotic reaction to the virus we are seeing would have been lessened with the effect that the more 'reckless' actions associated...

Lily hates that word. :) - Walter.

Like Josh said, Hanks has a bunch of them. 60 Minutes did a profile on him some time ago with Steve Kroft (IIRC) and Hanks' hobby is collecting typewriters. He had shelves and shelves of them in a room that appeared to be dedicated to showcasing his collection. - Walter.

Sounds to me like you have a supply of emergency TP. :) - Walter.

I've been going out for groceries about once a week and usually about half way between that interval I go out and turn the car over and listen to one or two songs on the radio. (For a low battery, a longer run time is required; but the battery in my car is only around 2 years old.) On the...

I have been grocery shopping in the early morning and decided to try a just before closing time trip this evening. Did not notice an appreciable difference in most stock on the shelves (although bread was nearly gone). I noticed that there were a lot less folks in the store so I think I am...

Re: haircut Remington clippers with a 1/2 inch attachment and about 5 minutes at the bathroom sink and I'm good to go. Not the most stylish solution but it gets the job done without the expense or time spent at a salon or barbershop. - Walter.

Observations on this afternoon's foray to the supermarket that I normally frequent... Traffic was fairly light but there where still more cars on the road than I would have expected. The store was at what I would consider normal levels prior to the pandemic. Lots of folks wearing masks and...

I fInd myself listening to more music these days. This particular song feels especially relevant... It is going to get worse before it gets better, but it will get better. - Walter.
