Wife went to Meijer this morning, saw some shoppers checking out with TP by the time she got to the aisle the shelves were empty. Supplies of most other items are slowly improving, hoarders can't keep on hoarding sooner or later they'll run out of money or space to store stuff. They're selling the schit on Craigslist for $50 a roll. Out of curiosity, I ran SearchTempest, which gives you CL results over a large area, to see what TP's selling for. I only saw 2 ads and both were for the large industrial size, those big rolls that fit in commercial restroom dispensers. The prices were reasonable. One was in Salem, OR and one was in CA.

so we're having beans and cornbread for dinner.
It gasses me up something awful. But beans and cornbread is a treat to me. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/d1R7YDXW/42231-C86-7-B83-4924-989-A-4-FF3-DE258337.jpg)

Yeah I was trying to be hilarious. It'll take me awhile to get my chops back. π

As previously mentioned, I've long been a fairly serious germ phone. But just knock me in the head if I ever get to the point of lighting my azzhole on fire to get sanitary.

My semi local....favorite butcher let me buy two cases of pork bellies just now.
Our .guv has declared a stay at home order....effective tomorrow.
No one seems to be panicking. Stores are okay.
Not sure what the point of the order was.....nothing has changed. My wife told me last night we are on a lockdown mode in Mt. I locked down a nice run or two on the river and fished a couple of hours. Nothing has changed here either.

With just two of us here it doesn't take much to keep us fed. Still, in order not to go out any more than necessary, we've been digging in the freezer and pantry to come up with something to make a meal from so we didn't need to shop.
Found a bag of dried beans and a sack of corn meal in the cupboard, so we're having beans and cornbread for dinner.
It gasses me up something awful. But beans and cornbread is a treat to me.  Beano is your friend (or your wifes).
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

We ordered TP online, EBay. Well the idiot UPS delivered it to the house across the street. We confirmed delivery address and signature from UPS. Wife went over and asked for package. Mrs Lee said she didnβt receive any package from UPS, same name on amazon package was on their front porch. Not our favorite neighbors now.

Not our favorite neighbors now. 100 years from now, descendants of both families recount to The History Channel how the feud traced back to a mistaken TP delivery and some dishonesty in the midst of a non-diarrheal virus outbreak and inexplicable TP hoarding/shortages.

,...fist time either of us have gone in about 10 days. She said the place was about back to normal. I thought it would get there soon enough. People get tired of panic buying after a while. When I saw the title I was already to troll your ass for being another pandemic grocery store tourist! But instead.... props buddy. 10 days is a good haul if everyone did half that we'd be way ahead of the game.

But our pharmacy is at the grocery (it's a big mega grocery) and she needed to pick up a prescription. Believe me,..I'm plenty neurotic about this schitt. I was uneasy about it when I first heard of it. Then the first case in the state came from about 4 miles from my house.

I was a nay sayer a couple months ago, won't be worse than the normal flu yada yada. But then northern Italy, then a few cases in this region then those numbers grew to a couple hundred and a few started dying. I've been a hand washing stay at home SOB the last two weeks. I do go out when I need to but give everyone a wide birth as most everyone else here is doing as well. Its up to all of us how this will play out and its pretty damn simple to do the right thing.
