Just heard on the radio that Hillsborough County officials are meeting right now to discuss reopening procedures for Tampa area. There are only 35 hospitalized CV cases in the county. Roughly 1.5 million population.

My 81 year old mother knows how to take care of herself and wouldn't do that. She understands what's going on, and knows how to take precautions. You're acting as if when we open businesses back up that everyone is just going to run out and play sardines. Not gonna happen. Most people a very responsible.

I only know of one. Were there more?

That's one person who is the major stock holder in one company that has benefitted from this. You can't equate one company doing well to the economy is doing alright. The economy has taken its worst hit since 1946.

I'm in the same boat. MrsC wanted a dog. So I got a dog. Then she heard boy dogs attach better to women so she wanted a boy dog. Now "I" have a boy and a girl dog. They are the 2 Viszlas up above. (Wrigley & Chief) People call them Velcro Viszlas, because they are stuck to you from the minute you get up.

I had gotten in the habit of ordering all of my meat from Wild Fork in Fort Lauderdale. They delivered in our area 3 days a week. Right now you have to keep trying until you hit a window. I'm super happy with the quality.

I work in at a facility that has nearly 5,000 employees. Taking care of myself and others at a grocery store is easy.
