I’m sure he’s not going anywhere for awhile. He’ll have tv rallies everyday. Today’s was close to two hours. I bet he gets them up to 8 hours. Anything to keep other news away from the Americans.

that you can't go out to pick up a provision? We placed an order for wine yesterday from our local wine store, which has closed to shoppers. But you can order online and they bring it out to your trunk (no contact). It won't be ready for pickup until tomorrow (Saturday) morning at 9 am. We have wine still, but we need more wine to go with our ad hoc meals (last night by candlelight, as the power went out for several hours.) Wine is necessary!

We have not been outside our own house for over a week, and have intended to stay there 99% of the time henceforth anyway. We've got an Instacart grocery order in place, too, to restock on basic food items bought 2 weeks ago. It should be delivered Monday evening.

Tribune article said groceries, pharmaceuticals, gas, and businesses that can't fully close are exempt.
Also, the rumor that the National Guard will be used to enforce were shot down by both the gov's office and the ING.
Pritzker also said that roads & interstates will never be shut down.

Christ I'm too tired.

I'm locked down and stocked up (I'm from Hurricane-ville and this is nice- surviving a storm with nice weather and convenient conditions at home).

Palm Beach County has the highest virus illness rate in Florida, so if Trump goes golfing, I feel it is the duty of Florida DU'ers who have the corona virus to get upwind and close to the golf greens and start coughing, sneezing, or otherwise clearing your nasal passages profusely in Trump's direction.

If you do die from the virus, or from the U.S Secret Service shooting you, we will be eternally grateful t you, especially if Trump barfs virus-snot all over himself in public.
