The wife and i were talking about what we could do to help during this panic! We decided to pay our neighbors house payment this month. The neighbor is a single parent, with two teenage children. He does a good job with the kids, but is layed off because of this crap! What are others doing?

Like most, I live pay check to pay check (2 divorces does that).

I do make a special point of thanking the stockers and cashiers at the grocery store. They’re as much on the front line of this as anyone and speaking with them there are some damned stupid and abusive shoppers out there.

I'm helping by not spreading it around. We're on day 13 of not leaving our property. Would like to be in a position to help out financially but our unemployment system has been down. I still haven't been able to register two weeks into layoff and have no idea how long it may be before I have anything coming in.

I’m doing that too, also we gave wifeys friend 1000 to help. She is laid off too. She has s handicap son and another that ain’t worth a fuuuck.

Well, not as much as I should.

Plugging away raising food for the country, trying to stay out of trouble.

My wife, made a bunch of the face masks for the local hospital.

I'm holding my sh*t in until this is all over so as to allow others who need toilet paper to have more access to it.




Hey, I'm full of it anyway, little more don't hurt...

Well you're in good company. Lot's of guys here full of shyt.

I get up at 3 and go to work in the grocery industry.

All week, I’ve attempted to prop up the local economy of Panama City Beach aka PCB (early cuyler)

But they got me on house arrest

Go downtown and shake your money maker on the corner.

You should be flush by Saturday night.

I stoped licking peoples noses....it was fun while it lasted !

Mostly just have a decent supply of food and some cash on hand. Plenty for wife and I but i doubt the kids are as prepared so we have double what we need to help them out if necessary.

Nice work heym06.....got an email last night from our 5th graders principal. It said to be outside between noon and one. All the teachers came by in there cars honking and talking to the neighborhood kids. Nice gesture.

I washed my hand twice today, while singing Kum ba yah. Does that count as being positive enough?

We gave some toilet paper to a family that didn't have any.

My wife and I spent the better part of today at a food bank loading bags with meat for distribution.

Not unless you were standing in the road while switching. One thumb up your arse and the other in your mouth. Then switch at ba part!

I'm living like a hermit having as little as possible contact with anyone, just groceries post office once in a while.
Checked in on all the neighbours. By text. We're good.

texting people i know who are vulnerable and offering them help. no one has taken me up on it yet but i think its coming.

I'm going to donate a box of dust/surgical masks to the local hospital. 50 masks is not much, but maybe it will help a little.

Other than that, checking on neighbors making sure everyone is good on supplies.

Catching butterflies in a field of bluebonnets with the grandkids.

Anyone that thinks people are great need to go work retail for 6 weeks, they'll change their minds in a hurry.

We've been paying the folks who help us with chores (cleaning ladies, dog walker when we're at work, etc.) even though they aren't allowed to be working. We've also been getting takeout from the local restaurants that are still open for takeout and leaving ridiculous tips (like leaving $100 for a $15 pizza) as much as we can. I hate socialism and don't want the government to do the charitable stuff I should be doing with the people who work for me or provide services that I use.

What a great thing to do for your fellow man, you and your wife should be damn proud.

I quit shaving to combat global warming and reduce my carbon footprint.

Things I am doing to help? Social distancing, inventorying my ammo and stores, making sure all my rifles are scoped and sighted in. Bought a generator, lots of fuel and a transfer switch (gonna try to electrocute myself this weekend by installing it). Keeping my powder dry....

@Heym06 I ain't that flexible, care to show me how's that done?

I received an email from Harbor Freight. They are donating their inventory of N95 masks, Face Shields and nitrile gloves to hospitals and emergency rooms around the country. If you know a hospital or emergency room that needs this equipment have them email [email protected]. I think this is a good thing. The stuff is made in China so hope it's not contaminated.

Praying Our Lord will guide us through it all. [Linked Image]

Some good people on here.

Wife and I have been working from home, for starters. Taking walks and drives to get out of the house but only really venturing into stores to shop for necessities. Just trying to help not spread any virus.

We live at the end of a cul-de-sac and have run a few errands for the mostly elderly in our neighborhood. We've made it clear they can call on us any time. Supporting a few local breweries by purchasing growlers curb-side and twice a week order take-out from a local restaurant (not a chain).

We are going to be making a large food donation to the Loveland food kitchen this weekend.

Tomorrow will be day 14 of mostly staying on our property or in our house for me. I have a couple of those auto-immune issues they keep warning about, so my bride has made a couple trips to the market. Did break out Tuesday and went to the shooting range with a buddy for a couple of hours - I swear, we did NOT come in contact with anyone else, no one else was there. Other than checking in on friends and neighbors to see if they need anything, I guess we haven't "done" anything, we are in a neighborhood of old farts like us and upper young professionals and not aware of anyone having lost their job or other financial stress. We will do what we can and are able, though.

Best I can offer is that I went and visited my American neighbor who just happened to be born in Germany. Left there in the 50's and has never returned. Is as good an American as I've met.

Bartered a couple of dozen eggs from the hen house with him for a few of those little green printed .gov issued pieces of paper. And he threw in a package of sausage from his kids' and grandkids' pigs. And an empty egg carton.

Heym, thanks for the reminder of paying someone's mortgage. Don't know anyone in that situation, but I have an old friend down south that probably could use having a break from the rent for a month. I'll have to contact his landlord to see if he's still there, want it to be a surprise.
