How about something different

[Edd]

I watch a lot of travel videos, with couples that spend their lives on the road. It’s fascinating to watch the various ways they’re dealing with the pandemic, depending on which country they were caught in and what their priorities are.

It’s so rare that a crisis isn’t localized; meaning, most people can ignore a tornado in Tennessee, or even a Tsunami in Japan, but nearly everyone has to take a bite of this particular shit sandwich.

That’s exactly what you are NOT supposed to do.

White House presser the other day noted that's exactly how this is spreading out from NYC area.

They use the testing data & can see it expanding out.

Here's another fascinating video re: tracking people via cell phones. This one relating to those moronic kids on the beaches.

I feel like it would be more accurate if annonomys was in quotation marks in that post.

WFH starting today. (Had yesterday off) We'll probably split out time between CT and VT just to change our scenery.

So, Glenn, can you confirm that you have rethought this? This is exactly the type of behavior that encourages the spread of the disease and more people dying. “Shelter at home” doesn’t mean “shelter at two homes across state lines.”

If he only shopped at one grocery store and brought the food back and forth with him and only got gas at 1 gas station all the time. then...

Even stopping at one gas station increases risk. It’s a completely selfish thing to do.

The house next to me has 2 cars with NY plates in the driveway. :angry:

One is his 24 year old son, the other is the son's girlfriend.

I guess if they stayed there sheltering-in-place it wouldnt be the worst thing, he has 35 acres & they could enjoy some air, but we went for a walk yesterday and the GF drove back alone; being that nothing is open here but grocery stores, liquor stores, and restaurants, likely she went to one of those. This is precisely how coronavirus is spreading from NYC into the NY, NJ, CT, countryside.

Not if your paying at the pump with gloves on and 6 feet away from anyone. That is completely 100% safe.

Here's how I'm filling my time without skiing and being stuck at home. Here's what I made so far between yesterday and today:

Shrimp Risotto


Crumb Cake with an Orange flavored Glaze


Red-wine braised short ribs over a creamy spinach polenta

 

[BenedictGomez]

Wow, I'd break my quarantine for some of that Shrimp Risotto.

 

[JimG.]

Good looking short ribs too.

This is now officially against CDC guidelines.

We all play a part in combating this - or at least we all should be playing a part.

VT, I think he gets it....

 

[kingslug]

Wow..some good looking chow..we both dont cook much so the food round these parts is a bit boring..
Im trying not tyo go to the store much and use delivery services..Fresh Direct is our best option but its tough to get a spot.

 

[cdskier]

Thanks. I very much enjoy cooking. So not being able to go out to dinner and having to eat at home isn't an issue for me (although I do love going out to restaurants as well and will be glad when I can go visit some of them again).

He might, but the Stowe parking lot was full yesterday and there were a lot of NY and MA cars there.

It's really disturbing how many people seem to be taking, "WFH, quarantine in place" as an excuse to take the family somewhere for a vacation.
