    Amazing we still make this political.  People suck.

    I know this is news to many, but in a time of crisis like we currently find ourselves, government leadership matters.

    I’m clicking on ridiculous posts on my Facebook feed ( political conspiracy theorists) and checking to see who likes the posts. I need to know the level of stupidity I’m dealing with.

    RATM postponed in PHX.  Any ideas on how to get a refund from ticketmaster?  It's probably harder that trying to get a roll of TP at this point.

    I don't know the answer to that question, but I imagine it won't happen until they decide whether they will reschedule the show or completely cancel it.

    Their website say you'll get an email when they have a new date and "if they allow refunds" you'll be bale to take care of it thru the website. Being such an anti-capitalist group, I'm sure Rage will insist on the refunds soon.

    Target, walmart, costco, and grocery stores are all out of the formula I feed my baby. Scouring the internet, I just horded formula. I bought enough to last 4 months. I also bought 2 huge jugs of meal replacement protein powder for myself and wife which should last for at least 4 months if that is all we eat. Also vitamins for a year. I think even this is overkill, but I use the stuff anyways.

    I take a few daily medications and CVS said they are all on backorder. I don't need them to live, but it is kind of scary.

    I am really concerned with the economy. My sister is an employment attorney for a big law firm. SO MANY of their clients are in the midst of mass layoffs. For example, all the tradeshow support staff are being let go. The hospitality industry is really hurting and starting mass layoffs. Think about all the employees affiliated with professional/college sports stadiums. This is all going to trickle down and REALLY hurt the economy.

    My brother got the same email.  We were suppose to go see Bert Kreischer in a couple weeks.  Show has been postponed.

    Yup Barack loves Basketball.  I miss the years during this time when the dear leader of the free world spent his time filling out his NCAA bracket.  He'd deliver it with great fanfare to his loving sheep on ESPN instead of trying to help prevent what we have going on this year. Great job, O'Bummer.
    Yeah, from his first day in office "O'Bummer" should have foreseen this "novel" virus.
    Amazing.

    Just waited 2.5 hours to get a gun. There was a line and a lot of the people got more than one. The guns I had narrowed my search down to were gone now so I had to spend a little more to get what I wanted. Got a Sig P365 XL 9mm which worked out great cause it’s set up just like my Sig trailside .22 that I use when I take my wife to the range so she is familiar with it already. Also stocked up on some other essentials. 
    I just picked up this Ruger Security Six in .357 magnum.  The action is smooth as buttah and I’m anxious to fire it tomorrow.

    Michigan schools are closed until April 6th.  My eldest teaches 3rd grade.  I invited her to spend time with us.  I’m only asking two rolls of TP for cover charge.

    My daughter's daycare announced they will NOT close unless someone tests positive for covid-19. How stupid is that?
