Corona Virus # 3

[Diggin It]

I always have a 2-3 month supply of most things on hand.

I'm almost completely out of cheese though and I haven't found any sales recently.

I don't have that much, but can easily go a month without leaving the property. Cheese is one of the few things I don't stock up on; it doesn't freeze well, and only keeps a couple of weeks.

. . . ya can always rub your hind end down a good patch of grass like a dog does sometimes (not mine)

First I"d need to dig through the 2 feet of snow; then chop a couple inches of ice. Then the turf would be frozen...

I don't have enough for 2 months.

Spring is around the corner . . .

We freeze grated cheese all the time....keeps quite well. Wife buys it in big bags, then repacks in pint vac seal bags.

Never tried to freeze block, maybe not so well ?

I should have qualified my statement. I do keep a few packages of shredded cheese in the freezer. Block on the other hand tends to get dry and crumbly. If you're using it for cooking that's great. I like to eat it with crackers, and don't like it falling all apart on me.

Why the toilet paper buying hysteria? Isn't the virus an upper respiratory issue?

It is but you sneeze so hard you shart.

All well and good until you hit a patch of nettles.:laughing:

Leaves are few and far between up here right now. And they don't even put out the Sears and Roebuck anymore.

This will settle down in a while, and people will get back to a normal routine again. Some of us won't have to because we never broke ours.

+1 on that. Nothing changes out here other than the sun come up, the sun goes down and I get a day closer to Pleasantview.

My buddy don't have that issue, He has a colostomy bag and his butthole is sewn shut. He's on the high buck bags too. Just like a ziplock bag, when full, zip it off, zip it closed toss it and zip on a new one.... Easy peasy and no TP needed,.... ever.:thumbsup:

One must be careful.

At that ratio, the alcohol has to be at least 90% alcohol before you start.

E-Gas works well too. Kills germs and leaves you stinky.:laughing:

A few years back Johnny Carson made an announcement about an impending shortage of TP. Store all over the US sold out. He got the last laugh!

Spring is around the corner . . .

I've got about 6 tall kitchen bags full of old clothes ready to cut up as needed.

Price of crude oil is way down.

Are you talking about ethylene oxide?

Re toilet paper....always remember a ditty on an army toilet wall:
If no paper do not linger
Robinson Cruso used his finger

TP shortage....not for this family that just bought 2300+ rolls.

Family accidentally buys 2,3 toilet rolls prior to national supermarket sell-out - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

We are up to 4 cases now in KY. Heard some of the leaders talking about needing more resources. I can only imagine they mean money. Seems there is always a huge need for funds anytime we have an issue. No real explanation of what resources were actually needed or how they would be used.


Ive got to work on the tractor shed tomorrow to beat the rain but come Tuesday a hoarding I will go. Appears that sanitizer, TP, and beans are done gone so I have to get ahead of the curve and jump on what will be next before they think about it. All suggestions will be considered.

TP cat fight.....

Women fight over toilet paper during coronavirus buying in Australia

"It looked practically apocalyptic Down Under as women tussled over toilet paper."
