Are all your businesses open down there? If so, you're better off than we are.

How long are YOU willing to put up with this? If this doesn't show results in two or three week, people will get sick of being locked in and will rebel, Cuomo be damned.
First of all, I'm already TOTALLY FED UP with the "selfish locusts" that have descended on the grocery stores, and cleaned out the places, right to the walls!!! For what it's worth, me, my wife, as well as our families, have been steady customers of the Wegman chain of food stores, in the Rochester area, for about 60 years. In western NY, we've seen and lived through power outages, torrential rainstorms that resulted in some flooding, frequent blizzards that almost have paralyzed the county, as well as other issues, but NOT EVEN ONCE, in our 60 years, has a Wegman store ever run out of food!!!

If everybody just shopped like they normally do, there'd be no shortage of anything. But the media has hyped this current situation to the point that life, as we've known it, is on the brink of extinction, within the next 2-3 months. WELL, IF THAT TURNS OUT TO BE TRUE, AND ALL THE PREVIOUS PROPHECIES AND "END OF TIMES" PREDICTIONS COME TO PASS, THEN "WTF" GOOD IS 85 ROLLS OF TOILET PAPER IN THE CLOSET GOING TO DO FOR YOU????

Well that means those evangelicals are not so sure they are saved after all and will be raptured as they might profess in Church, lol.

did anyone listen to the cuomo press conference today? One thing is he's pretty focused on the fact that NYC still has too much density outside, in the parks.

I wonder if some of the parks are going to be closed from here on out. he's asking local officials to give him a plan, which I'm guessing could involve closing parks but also closing down some streets and turning them into pedestrian only areas.

I know you're out of the country. But if anyone wants to meet in Times Square on Tuesday at Noon, I'm completely down for it. Let's see what happens.
