OMG Italy just closed parks

maybe could have thought of this a few days ago if not a few weeks

Are parks especially dangerous or something?  The populace already has orders not to mingle.  If they're still doing it, the parks aren't the problem.

I don't think parks are a problem unless folks are clustering together.

Yup.  And if they are clustering together, then closing the parks will simply push them into the alleyways and such.  Welding their doors shut might be the only option.

Well if this is circulated enough people will eat less after reading it therefore using less TP.Mother Huckabee must be so proud,so proud,perhaps he should have included his critique of leaves,pin oaks,sugar maples,birch,dogwood,chestnut,elm.

Florida is about a week behind the rest of the large states in closing things. The governor screwed the pooch in allowing spring break to happen.

Now all of those assclowns are going to come back North.

Texas beaches were a shitshow too, up until midway through this past week.

I do not plan to interact with anyone I know who was down there, or anyone who has kids who went down there, like my neighbors down the street.  Their two kids, who go to Texas Tech and University of Arkansas, were down at the beaches over Spring Break, and are now at home since their classes are canceled.  My neighbor wanted to get together and talk over some beers, and I told him I'd  be happy to do so-- in two weeks.  I love the guy, but he's not taking it very seriously, and I won't be interacting with him until it's all clear.

I'd rather support the local butcher shop, which has some high end stuff.  We don't eat much meat any more, the wife prefers fish or chicken or lamb.  The steelhead trout is excellent, that is almost all we eat, grilled, when it comes to fish.

The butcher shop is not cheap obviously.  Costco has prime cuts if you want them around $20 a pound or so.
We tried that, but they are sold out on special orders.  We are going to put in an order for a couple weeks out today.  I've never been overly impressed with their cuts.  I know I'm biased, but Knight's in Ann Arbor is still the best northern butcher I've found, nothing has ever topped it.

Our playground closed yesterday, which is obviously different from a park.  That makes sense, all those kids, all the surfaces.  But as far as large parks go, I woudl think you'd want to leave those open for walking and jogging.

Yeah, our local butcher doesn't have a lot of stock right now. He got hit by the hoarders too.
