    I just want to know where this 10-ply soft toilet paper you speak of can be found.

    Well I finally decided to agree to cutting his wavy ,cowlicky thick head of hair. Got out my best dog grooming tricks and went to town . Holy cow hair every where I took inches off . He's so happy he got the vacuum and cleaned it all up. Well worth the money he pays some one else to do it,though it looks pretty darn good. Plus he didn't attempt to bite when I clipped around his ears...lol

    Beer and a dart go together like a pee and a fart.

    My thoughts on the timing of the WHO releasing this is we are coming up on the likely uptick(if it were to occur) of cases as a result of the protesting. Putting out there an explanation as to why when it does not happen.

    Over memorial day weekend the big parties down in the ozarks caught bunch of crap. MO health department just realeased other day no new cases from people that were there. They tracked down the ppl there and alot of the ppl they came in contact with afterwards and nothing.

    Well, I was in Branson this past weekend which is two weeks after Memorial Day. If I get sick in the next couple of weeks, perhaps I was exposed there. However, I did not come across anyone displaying symptoms. Most things were so closed down that there was hardly anyone there. It was a ghost town compared to a weekend in June under normal circumstances.

    My MIL called my wife last night, she has a sore throat, cough, and chills that started yesterday. She called us asking to borrow a thermometer because she couldn't find one. My wife told her we aren't coming over if she is feeling that way and we will not be seeing them for at least two weeks now. We haven't been around them in almost two weeks but the in-laws have been eating out in restaurants almost every day for the last two weeks without wearing masks. They think it is a joke. I think they are about to get a hard lesson. Cases in Arkansas have almost doubled since Memorial Day.

    Daughter has had to be an unofficial mediator for me with sons family. I love my grandsons and son ,but they just don't social distant. Their friends and kids don't, her family doesn't. I've taken a hard stance on this until I see my Dr., hoping to get my meds changed. Also to see if my being ill this winter damaged my lungs or if allergies have just gotten worse.
    Though we will get together at daughters for fathers day. She has a big out door entertainment area and several bathrooms. I wear my mask when needed. They also live in a county with just 3 deaths and both are still working from home until July.
    @cantexian
    Best wishes to your MIL and family

    Michigan with the warden 19 cases in my county the last two weeks. There is the "might have been" numbers(79) the state added. I think it was done to boost the numbers IMO. As a state 26 and 23 the last two days.

    I don't think you're gonna get ppl to take it real seriously anymore. My guess would be you'll see number go up and down all summer long until fal comes then will probably go up again for awhile. But not sure that has anything more to do with the virus then it does when the weather goes from summer to winter ppl just get sick. Just like every other year.

    As far as what went on down there. Idk can only comment on what have seen reported. But at end of the day we're all adults and guess you haveta decide for yourself what risk you think you should take. Idk if I woulda jumped in down there and joined in but I don't care that ppl did either. The owners came out and said they followed what guidelines were given to them before opening and again I wasnt there so idk. And the state followed up since it basicall made national news and said nothing happened. So good enough I guess.

    I live three hours away from Branson in Little Rock. It didn't make the news here. If it was really serious, it would have been all over the local news. It is too popular of a vacation destination for it not to have.

    I woke up this morning to a mild fever, sore throat, chills and it felt like I was hit by a truck..... I took the test at 1:00 today and will have results within 72 hours, here’s to hoping for the best... Good times
