In elementary and high school, never dreamed I would use the math they were teaching... until I spent 30+ years in engineering and construction. In elementary and high school, never dreamed I would have to remember the abc's... until I spent the last months playing Forum Games!!!!!

Yep we could live for more than a month with food in fridge / freezer / pantry as well as preserved fruit joybelle I don’t intend or need to go anywhere at this stage. It’s claimed this started with a cleaner who touched a door knob in the hotel that’s used to house the returning from OS Australians ......but I would have thought she should have been washing or sanitising her hands frequently knowing she was working in a hotel with lots of infected returned travelers from very infected countries .... ..,but it appears she neglected that requirement ...l ..she spread it all around Adelaide as well as 20 other family members it wasn’t picked up till an elderly family member presented herself at a hospital emergency section which was full to the brim with others waiting to see a dr ( after hours ) so there are 4.000 + people in isolation .......Plus the whole state now .....till next week

Local hospitals, here, are filling. Patients being housed in hallways and waiting rooms. We've cancelled Thanksgiving plans with family. Hope you weather this COVID storm. Will be thinking of you.

Excellent idea 2old to cancel your family's thanksgiving plans for this year. Your numbers with the virus are totally staggering and overwhelming. I don't think I would be going anywhere unless I really had to. To you and yours stay safe and to everyone else on the forum. I knew you would be well stocked up Dusty. If I worked in one of the isolation hotels I would be wearing disposable gloves.

This situation seems to be getting worse all the time. We should have the same lockdown in the U.S. Unfortunately, the outgoing president will not turn over pandemic info. to President Biden.
How could so many Americans have voted for that jacka$$? He should be forcibly removed. He is such a self-involved sicko.
By the way, I posted a video in Politics Forum today that can make anyone feel better and give you a few chuckles. It is last night's interview of Barack Obama on the Jimmy Kimmel show. It put me in a good mood.

We were let out of “house arrest “ yesterday ,We was not even allowed to go for a walk grrr all because of a male who claimed he bought a pizza from a pizza shop and the virus spread fro the pizza box to his very large family ......he’s been found out as our premier described him as a “despicable vile liar “ ..he now has a task force of 7 investigating him why he lied and if there can be any chargers bought against him ...... He was actually working at the pizza shop not a customer at all .....he alone was responsible for shutting SA down as it was thought the virus survived on a pizza box .. So from tonite we are back to what we was last week before this ( I agree with our premier ) THIS despicable lair stuffed all our lives ...I had a important drs appointment on Monday (dermatologist) which has been made into a phone call appointment Police are sitting in cars watching the closed pizza shop just in case of any attempt of backlash..but I think the backlash will be via social media not in damaging the actual shop ....written words sting / hurt a business far more than damaging a shop / building

It sounds like that idiot has the same lying habit that our current president has. Another one to add to the sicko list!
MN is shut down again. They don't want people gathering for Thanksgiving except with their immediate family, but people will do it anyway. I'm staying home because my family is not having a Thanksgiving celebration this year. (I wouldn't go anyway.) This lockdown is for 4 weeks.
I saw on the news many videos of mask protestors and anti-mask rallies. When an anti-mask man or woman is confronted, they fight and insult and use the F-word constantly. WTH?

Wife's Minnesota relatives have a deer camp up close to the Canadian border. That property has been in their family for years. This year, five guys and one of their wives headed up to get their deer. All six now tested positive for COVID. No idea where they contracted it. Had to be from some stop along the way or maybe one was asymptomatic before leaving home. No place is safe..........

Absolutely 2old no place is safe. We must all keep up the precautions and do not assume that this virus is a hoax.

On the news last evening were videos of crowded airports. People are traveling without regard to Covid. The people are all packed together and don't seem to be worried about getting the virus. I'm staying safe at home.

First time in many years my wife and I will be home alone. Even the daughter and her family who live here in town won't be coming over. If the weather is as nice as predicted, they would like to come over and have pie and ice cream out on the deck so we can social distance. Such a different year.....
