    Toilet Paper

    Oh, Lord no! It's not cheaper to raise chickens for the eggs. It may pay off in the long run, but short-term it's more expensive. Didn't really know why we did it until this happened and we're the only people in the neighborhood with eggs.

    Toilet Paper

    Best case, people continue to care for them. Middle ground, turn them loose and the circle of life continues, a predator gets them. Worst case, I hope people don't starve them to death when they have to go back to real life. For a lot of people, that are trying this for the first time...

    Toilet Paper

    I imagine you didn't buy them because of your reduced production. I imagine no company will buy them for the same reasons. I've seen a lot of people getting their own chickens for the first time because they're a great food source. A lot of hobby farm style chicken coops are sold out. Looks...

    I give you... You can bush hog your pond with that bad boy.

    Toilet Paper

    Scored a twelve pack today. Not our normal brand, but it's what was on the shelves. At this store there is a limit of two packages per customer, people were still buying two of the largest packages in stock, months, maybe a year's worth, of TP. So some people are still over-buying/hoarding. I...

    DWI: Refused to test, need help for reporting

    I doubt that. It may have been the worst possible advice concerning his pilot's certificate, but he may well get out of the DWI somehow, but that probably will not undo the damage done to the pilot's cert.

    Today, I worried about pork products. https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/04/13/833110486/u-s-meat-supply-is-perilously-close-to-a-shortage-ceo-warns

    Do you still have a 5 1/4 floppy drive?

    I believe there is some more modern software available now. :D Is it out of boredom you're trying to decades old software going?

    Toilet Paper

    Still no toilet paper here when I went yesterday to pick up the wife's monthly prescriptions. And I don't know if they've gotten shipments of TP and just sold it all immediately. We still don't need any because we had plenty when this started, but in a month or two, it could get serious at our...

    The “what I did during quarantine” thread

    Good luck, mate. I hope your business survives this and what comes later. My work, apartment maintenance, is just kinda kicking the can down the road, unless it's an emergency. Flooding, fire, health and safety issues, HVAC repairs are the only thing I have to go to work for. I'm not spending...

    The “what I did during quarantine” thread

    Tuesday, I cooked an entire Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey and all the traditional sides. Because it was a Tuesday and there was nothing else to do. Yesterday I opened up the sailboat and looked it over for the first sail of the season, which won't happen for at least a few days now because...

    Toilet Paper

    The shelves here were still bare yesterday. Someone has had to have run out of toilet paper in their home by now. Do any of you know someone that has had to resort to using another method or material to wipe with?

    Banks already don’t want to help

    My uncle is a former VP of Bank of America. It was a long time ago, back when they used the terms president and vice president instead of CEO and such. I'm pretty sure he would agree with you.

    COVID-WTF Thread

    I live on a lake. Have a small sailboat sitting at the dock. I can be on the water without ever getting near another soul. These fisherman and pontoons that don't live on the lake are packing the ramps. And of course they have to stop at the store for gas, beer, bait, all that leads to...

    Post COVID19 Lockdown Cravings...

    Same. I just want my VI cruise to happen in July. I've actually been eating way better than normal. Not working much, so don't have to stuff my face with fast food and get back to work. Edit: yeah, I know that isn't the ideal time to go to the Virgin islands, but it's what our schedule permits...

    COVID-WTF Thread

    We need to either get back to normal soon or... Skip straight to the part where we arm up our toughest, meanest family member/leader to go on supply runs. Cut the power grids because people that once kept them running are now just fighting for survival like the rest of us. Stop using cars, just...
