    I think I may have posted this to the wrong thread but either place is interesting.

    Where in the heck is my Roadside Geology of Minnesota???

    I can find Wyoming, Utah, and Idaho. Dewey has let me down again.......

    Maybe it is in my truck or camper?

    Driving up the road what you might think is just a bump/hill was the border of Lake Agassiz.

    Maybe where some glacier stopped.

    I recommend these for road trips where you have an interested navigator.

    The Premier of the Province of Ontario in his news conference today released to the public the various Covid 19 models that the medicos have come up with. Basic gist of it is that between 3,000 and 100,000 Ontarians could die in the expected 1 to 2 years for the pandemic to run it's course. That is all depending on how we do at self isolation etc. I'd be pleased if this would be over by the end of April but something tells me not.

    I am not a fan of Doug Ford but give him credit for the way he has handled the pandemic so far and actually released the modelling they have.

    This isn't a new Virus as to precautions.. There are other Corona virus's that we have dealt with SARS and MERS most recently


    The experts lied about the masks. it was very obvious, I have been saying it since Feb 1st when I told Family to buy N95's and that I would buy back from them if they were unused.

    I use them anyway and P100's for the shop itself


    But as soon as it was known to be a Corona Virus related to SARS and MERS I bought extra masks for the house and shop

    I am NOT an expert nor a doctor but that was obvious

    ps: Harbor Freight had Nitrile Gloves on sale for $5.99 per 100 in Feb too I bought us an extra box each

    Lots of fun and I will follow the path with cheap gas and continue my social distancing.

    Unless 100 other eccentrics are stopping at the berm of the last glacier.

    Last night a good friend of mine and I decided we are eccentric not weird.

    Don't waste your N95's or P100's unless you need them.

    Dirty gloves aren't any better than dirty hands. Wash your hands.

    I watched an idiot yesterday at the store complaining about many things while wearing gloves.

    Then when he walked out to his car he threw his gloves on the ground and drove away.

    Use some common sense. Do what your Grandma told you to do.

    just to be redundant. When the Doc told me that wearing a mask was to prevent you from spreading to them then I mulled that over and thought if they wear a mask too then what's the difference ? A barrier is a barrier regardless and if we all wore one then our worries would be a little less. so Apologies to all the Asian countries that we as a people may have mocked. Whenever someone farts over there a mask gets donned because they have so many people crammed in over there in those places and you know what.....good on them. We probably as Glenn states should all have been wearing one weeks back . Ounce of prevention ,pound of cure thing again. Coulda,woulda,shoulda, I'm taking Docs advice and getting a bandana or cloth mask and washing after every day of use . A cloth mask is better than no mask and I can't afford right now to search and procure a warehouse full nor can I keep up with the hoarders so …….And as a side note. I can't affrord anything right now because my card is on hold for ten days till I get a new one because some jerk got hold of my number and damn near cleaned my account out and I just got paid. Luckily I got enough groceries but it has affected many other things. I do believe that anyone who steals swindles or chisels or gouges anybody during this time of crisis deserves a little sumpin extra when they get caught. Lets weed out the selfish vulture xxxxheads can we please !!

    Also to clarify.....I don't consider buying and extra box of this or that as being a hoarder to be fair but those who clear out the shelves and do it weekly well think of your neighbors cause you could get shorted too and were all in this one together this time. I'm gonna go cool off now cause I'm still Po'd about my account....
