How are you guys coping with the Coronavirus outbreak. Seems like every few years one of these things pops up out of nowhere.
Now every little sneeze, cough, headache, etc. you or yours have cause you to worry. Even a trip to the market is an in-and-out venture…no leisurely browsing and/or chit-chatting in the aisles with a fellow shopper.
There is a lot of misinformation out there. And, of course, snake oil salesmen and shysters trying to make a quick buck. Then there are the folks who love to hear the sound of their own voice coming out of the woodwork to prey on everyone's fears.
As for me, we've had a longstanding work-at-home policy; so for now no traumatic changes are required. Must say that I’m adhering to the recommendation to avoid crowds as much as possible. I don't have to ride the bus or the train so I've lucked out in that regard.
Anyway...
Stay vigilant.
Stay safe.

In 643 AD the Scandinavian Viking Eric the Lemon set sail for Vinland in hopes of purchasing a new Vin. His cousin Eric the Mauve had a dealership there. Unfortunately his navigator was from Rus by the name of Checkoff. They overshot Vinland and accidentally found the North West passage. In their wanderings they found Hawaii. Hawaii is Scandinavian for " place with the baked bean volcanoes" The locals placed a curse on them. And now their descendants are terrified of escalators.
A sad story but true.

Not sad at all. Eric's VIN number was Pi which got him big discounts at the dealership. With that deal he bought a used Range Rover with which he had many happy adventures.
The End
Also wasn't that baked bean volcano 🌋 in truth your grade school science fair project? An idea far too advanced for it's time

So a bunch of Vikings sailed the wrong way, landed in Hawaii where people eat too many beans and have diarrhea, became cursed and now I'm afraid of escalators?

You're lucky if it's only spitting. In San Fran, and much of China too, they're doing a lot of spitting outdoors except with an h instead of the p. (But they also do a lot of p outdoors.)

Was watching a news segment where the reporter was doing person-on-the-street interviews. He asked a masked-up couple how they were dealing with the Coronavirus.
The woman started her response by saying "We are living like Little House On The Prairie...." Couldn't help but
and think of this Board.

That school project was based on actual observations. Part of the sadness of the story is that Eric still does not own his Vin. Corporate is insisting on the full number. They are on the eight generation of flunkies filling out the forms.

Not yet. But, I saw on the news that there was a run on nurseries (plus I’ve seen a lot of “out of stock” notices for online stores). Turns out people are hoarding vegetable seeds and snatching up seedlings. Maybe a lot more people are planning to do it LHOTP-style.
