Hi folks, Jim ( @Parallax ) had a great idea to start a " Coronavirus " thread for those who are self isolating, just to keep those creative juices flowing.

EDIT - If you're stuck indoors, show us what it's like.

MOD EDIT:This is a photo challenge. All future posts without a photo will be deleted.

First cab off the rank.

EDIT - I got sent home from work today because my company has run out of materials ( sheet metals from China ).
My 1st official isolation pic.

Mostly it has been rain and gloomy skies to match but Sunday afternoon we got out for a walk. This is the high school gym just beyond the backyard and this time of year high school tournaments would have been wrapping up. A lot of tournament games are played here since it seats about 3200, actually most of the games scheduled here were played before they stopped the tournament. The two levels left to play were scheduled at the big college arenas.

And the local high school has installed solar panels behind the school.

That must be universal, I've been in three groceries in the past week, the two largest were entirely sold out. One with probably an 80-100 foot long aisle completely empty, it's crazy.

I don't think we have any old phonebooks, actually I don't think we've had one at all for a few years. I guess we'll have to go for direct mail advertising, but those glossy sheets won't do too well.

both digital and more importantly if the need arise, the actual home delivery of the physical paper

so I think we will be ok

Hi Allen

The maker of said TP has not stopped production ....... so the supply is still rolling along.
The maker has had to up production because of stupid people.
The amount people are buying is just stupid .... they woun't need to buy any for 12 months at normal usage amounts ( just guessing )

The media has a lot too answer for .... as usual.

Hi Allen

If this gets any crazier then you will not recieve your paper ( I have a feeling and I deliver the paper )

Why ? ....... The printers are having a 2 week enforced holiday / isolation break in April over here
