LOL! Um... hardly. But I have gotten my GF caught up on a handful of Marvel movies, and she just purchased "God Of War" video game and I'm watching her kick butt!

@MROO

I was just on my local news site and saw a header that local disaster relief agencies are hiring, and I thought of you. With your background maybe you could provide logistics?

I'm betting all of the US will need people to provide the same relief and services that we typically see after hurricanes, floods, or earthquakes.

Thanks, I'll definitely look into that.

MROO, have you considered petitioning your governor and whoever your local state legislator is? You are surely not the only person in your area who is facing this. They can come up with emergency legislation to allow you to qualify for unemployment.

They don't want a medical emergency to turn into a financial catastrophe. They have a responsibility to prevent that.

You're a citizen who's been paying taxes. You are entitled to expect services when you need them.

My DD does qualify for unemployment, now the trick is being able to log on to apply for it. She puts in her info on the first page, hits continue and it says an error as occurred please try again later. She has been trying for days now.

Hope everyone is holding out. My husband is a smart (you know what) I asked him to get me some vegan chips and he decided to buy every one he could find it made me smile and the people working at the local store were laughing at him when he said what he was doing.

He always finds a way to help me through rough times.

And yet here we are complaining about people buying more than they need.

I think if I have a mask on, it will help me not touch my face. And I do think masks help drastically decrease the aerosolized droplets that a person breathes in. Plus, if you have a mask on, I bet people will avoid you.

Having a mask on does not really help keep you from touching your face, as you will constantly be touching it trying to readjust it. They are no fun to wear. I have to wear one when I go in certain areas of the hospital and trust me I would rather not.

You can use cotton selfmade masks for this purpose.

Well, a lady lost it ... Was just in CVS.. Saw a man whose cart was FULL to the brim with hand sanitizer, baby wipes, soaps, everything that people need !! She called him selfish, and gave him a low down about the elderly, moms, and people who need these types of things. Told him he should be freaking ashamed of himself !
He said: “Are you done? Cause I really need to get back to restocking the shelves now.”

could try this if touching your face is a hard habit to break
