Coronavirus (non political)

I haven't been doing anything besides a couple stops at stores. Got bulk supplies to last for 2 weeks. Goal is to not leave the house except for work Thursday and Friday each week. Got a lot of books to read along with Firestick and Netflix. I should have got myself a volleyball (Wilson) cause I'm gonna basically have zero human contact until at least the weekend following this one.


You don't have to be alone! ;)

I haven't been in a Lowe's or Home Depot since this madness started, I have had issues with both of them ordering items that were online only. I will stay away from both of them as long as I can. Fortunately for me I have a small machine shop I work from on my property so I can fix stuff that most people have to throw out and replace. There also is a mom & pop hardware store 10 miles from me, don't mind paying more there for the convenience of not driving 60 miles round trip and killing 2 hours going to Lowe's or Home Depot. Of course they don't carry all the items the big boys do.

I tried going to Lowes a few weeks back but it was way too crowded so I didn't go in. We have a mom and pop place I forgot was there I will now be using for anything I need. Lowe's has shown no consideration for their employees.

That can't be a real pillow!! Who in their right mind would put that in their house lol? That's just turrible!

So I get an email that I need to pay the balance for the two condos I booked months back for our golf trip. I called them a few weeks back and asked about a refund and said I would hold off a for a little longer as our trip is from May 12 to 17. When I got the reminder I figured I just need to cancel as I don't see it happening. Called all three numbers and all were disconnected. Might be the first business I know of to close up shop for good.

So they took your down payment?

There will probably be thousands of businesses close for good. I'm in a small town, and we are already beginning to see some places close up for good. Small places mainly. I imagine as the shutdown continues, it will get worse and worse across the USA. Places like KOHLs say they only have enough cash to operate through the end of the month. We may see a totally different retail landscape by December, whatever is left standing. Won't be much.

I think the treatment for the Viagra issue "if you have an erection lasting more than 4 hours see a doctor"...I think when you show up to the hospital they just give you this pillow to curl up with for an hour and it goes away.

An hour? It might just fall off. 1 close up look should do the trick.

I gave them the deposit of $275 x 2 units back in December. So I did get an email reply and they gave me a new number to call. The guy says to give it until April 30th to see what happens. Problem is I have filed the dispute with my credit card company and if I pull the dispute it will be considered as resolved. So now I'm stuck with believing the guy or letting the dispute run its course. I will add we have been renting from this same co for 18 years.

Interesting article about the beefed up unemployment benefits. A lot of people making more by not working:

Tough situation because people legit need help. But also don't want people quitting their jobs because they get more not working. Posting here because its not party centric. Just an overall article about the benefits.
