Thank you for your concern.

You can leave me your Kubota, I'll take another one, then I'll have 3.......:laughing: All joking aside, I'd consider seriously staying home. I really don't want to see you contracting the Wuhan Flu.... and you don't want it either.

From what I'm reading, the vast majority that get it feel kind of crappy for a few days, get over it and don't even realize they had it.

Kinda sucks if you die though.

With all this going on about covid-19, I'm doing something positive to bring my spirits up, I'm cooking a roast with carrots and taters.

We had some big ole thick country ribs, corn off-the-cob and fresh broccoli for our meal today.....mmmmmmm. (and all produced within 100yds of the kitchen)

I'm having chicken soup tonight but the only thing which I raised was the chicken and the peas. Everything else came from the grocery store, which I bought while everyone else was stripping the shelves of toilet paper.

Two of our supermarket chains have adopted seniors only shopping between 0700 and 0800 one day a week, you just need to show a seniors or pension card to get in, they are also closing at 2000 instead of midnight or 24hr trading in order to restock without the crowds.
Our butchers have plenty of stock but meat at the supermarkets sells out quickly, I find it is not as good quality and more expensive and rarely buy meat there, we still have half a calf in the freezer.

ShooterDon: thank you. This isn't Friendly Politics, and the words used there will surely offend here.

Successful day negotiating Walmart and CVS. I went into CVS and saw a prominent display with only four bottles left in it of
some antibacterial spray bottle, at a good price. Good for them. I asked the clerk in the back how often they wiped down the pen they were requiring me
to use and they said once an hour. Good for them. Only way to safeguard that is to wear a latex glove or some glove.
Felt good to get home and be far away from that.

I never wear gloves when changing oil or using a grease gun, just don't like the feel
of them and they make my hand sweaty. But I have started to use a disposable latex glove for pumping gas, because I doubt the lady behind the counter
is coming out on the hour to wipe down those nozzles. No I don't think so....

Indiana has first coronavirus-related fatality. :tombstone:

"INDIANAPOLIS Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb announced this afternoon (3/16/2020) that the Hoosier state has experienced its first coronavirus death. The fatality has not been identified. Officials said the patient fell into the high-risk category, and was over 60 with underlying health problems."

I'd say there's a 50/50 chance drive through windows will get shut down if the new measures do not keep the curve down...most drive through windows don't have credit card ports that the driver can access so there is a lot of back and forth handling of cash and cards...How many cases of DT employees will it take?

IMO CC companies should be sending all their card holders cheap styluses so they do not have to handle public ones...
