Getting supplies

[Cecil S.]

I heard some Iranians tried illegal Moonshine. It didn’t go well for them. I think it only works with bath tub gin but you have to be in the bathtub.

Right they were drinking wood grain , not a good idea. I lived in TN good moonshine is very good. I would sit in a tub and let the right person disinfect me. But I dont want to take away from your epic icing legend.LOL

Who is: "They", and when did "They" start counting? Given the latest outbreak was discovered almost 3 months ago in Dec. 2019, I find your numbers highly suspect, as the world's 8 billion people would have been wiped out over a month ago, using the progression you present.

Just something I saw online.

Here are some suggestions for preventing being infected. Please note the methods are inexpensive and easily sourced at your local dry cleaner supply house and Walmart's.

I laughed until I realized I had actually thought of some of these solutions. Maybe I need help!

When you "Just something I saw on line," please check the source. This is what spreads false rumors and causes panic.

You wipe, fold, wipe, fold, until you have the smallest of dirty TP cubes. You can get 50 wipes a sheet if you're careful!

EDIT: Or you just do your business at work and save the TP at home for emergencies .

Here is a chart that is updated daily and looks believable:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

As far as supplies go, try finding 60+% isopropyl alcohol. I already have a gallon but thought I could find more. Nope! There are people selling it for $50 a gallon and some even higher. Some give a lower price and tack on a high shipping price. After a couple hours I gave up. Several sites let you get all the way to the order page and then will take your money and backorder the product.

On the brighter side, Rural King has toilet paper in an ad this morning, 12 rolls for $3.99 which is cheap. After the president's speech last night, I would imagine there is more panic buying. We're all set. Everything I bought will be used probably in the next 6-8 months so no waste of money stocking up a little.

There's no point buying things you would not normally use anyway. There's no harm in having enough on hand to sustain yourself for 3 months.

The last thing I need to buy is a months supply of Dinty Moor Beef Stew and some canned veges. Just in case!

Remember, the proper investment in precious metals can provide food and security.

I like the idea, but did you ever try to buy what you need with it?

The local Wally World had plenty of paper towels, low on TP and zero disinfecting sprays. Drive a couple blocks and the chain drug stores had everything.

I would like to know where all these absurd numbers are coming from. There have been 118,433 cases reported worldwide, with 4,267 deaths. In the US, there have been 822 cases and 28 deaths. These numbers are as of today, March 10, 2020.

Why is everyone so ready to site, unheard of and grossly exaggerated numbers, without checking the facts.

It's mass hysteria thanks to the media. Just today I heard the local news guy make the following statement, and I quote "The number of confirmed corona cases has "SKYROCKTED" to 1000 cases. In my mind I said what an idiot. It has not sky rocketed, there are over 300 million people in the United States. What is the percentage of confirmed cases to the population of the U.S. and if you do the math the number of actual deaths in the U.S. becomes exponentially smaller. So everyone go spend your hard earned cash on over inflated priced toilet paper to clean your butt.

 

[hogpatrol]

In the U.S., 38 died so far from Corona virus. The other 331 million are still alive and surviving.

Well, the food is walking around all over creation for your precious metals to "aquire"...


Secondary bonus is the same metals can buy security, sometimes without actually spending them....

I heard on the news that there are new symptoms. Temps drop, pulse is low to non existent, low intelligence, uncoordinated, and an appetite for brains.

I’ll trade some toilet paper for ammo.
