Yes, this is a failed post...^^^^




He called for a travel ban/restriction in January and on Feb 5th chuck shumer called him a racist for that...and then it was also stated that because he called it the china virus (or something other than the corona virus) that it was xenophobic....so, maybe get your fact straight before posting...



And people may not like this....and I'm not saying it was the overall problem....but that pesky little impeachment thingy was going on in January....

And damn folks...I literally just went to a dollar store, wallgreens, Kroger, lowes (yes lowes does carry things like TP) and finally to another dollar store to finally find TP....and the only reason I think I found it, was because they were just taking it out of the box and putting it on the shelf....




And no, I took 2 pack so others could have some.

Give it a week and it should be a little more back to normal. After having been in your shoes for the last 2 weeks - I'm in NY - a tip would be to look at the small gas stations with a minimart when the grocery stores are out of things like milk. Also don't wait to get supplies in case you get a cold or this flu. Many people are grabbing the TP and PT but aren't grabbing cough syrup - only pick up Tylenol though as there seems to be a debate on whether anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen make it worse.

We can only hope.


The rest of your post, are you directing that at me?

How ironic that you would tell someone to get their facts straight when you (as is usually the case with you) have no clue what you're talking about.

Why is it that almost everything you're mad about usually turns out to not even be true?

Oops!!

Oh, well.

Why let a little thing like truth get in the way of an opportunity to display indignance and outrage?

I knew you were being sarcastic from earlier posts, plus it just seemed obvious to me, but on our sports boards we follow a sarcastic post with ** (asterisks), but I don't know if that would ever catch on or even be understood here.

Just saw where Madison County cases are at 39, Limestone at 11, and Morgan County 9. So 59 cases in the metro.

That pales in comparison to Jefferson with 148 and Shelby at 52. 200 cases in the immediate B'ham area.

Something over 500 total in Alabama this afternoon. Not sure if we're just catching up with test results, or the number of infected is rising on a fairly steep curve.

Also, Redstone Arsenal has upped the security level to Charlie.
