I've always loved The New York Post. They often cover the most offbeat topics.Why people are buying so much toilet paper amid coronavirus outbreak
“What we need right now is a government-backed Strategic Toilet Paper Reserve.”
@Jean4, how did the doctor visit go?
Edit: re the toilet paper, I vaguely remember the gasoline shortage in the late 70s. Talk show host Johnny Carson joked that the next thing that was going to be in short supply was toilet paper. Everyone watched Johnny, and many people didn't recognize that it was a joke, so they went out to stock up. That emptied the shelves, and after that everyone could see that there was none. It was a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I'm alive. Guess that is a good thing. He gave me enough asthma pumps that I do not have to buy for the rest of the year. See him again in June. Stay inside away from the nasty Coronavirus ;)
Taken last week, when the weather was better. Opening Day is now less than one month away!

Unfortunately, this virus is going to wreck the economy. Bloomberg (the company) suggested that it might push the US into a recession.
You're right. Argh. This means I may have to get a twitter after all in order to keep up with the latest news from both parks.

I have a Twitter for that purpose. It has just a few businesses and news outlets on it.

* * * * CECIL 2.0 ADVANCED COMMON SENSE (ACS) * * * *
Hello @Dear Flabby
I've been talking to Eliza, my girlfriend !!!!!!
If you want to chat with her, her phone number is : http://www.manifestation.com/neurotoys/eliza.php3
But don't gossip too much about me....
I thought you might like to eavesdrop on our conversation together.....
Cecil : Hello Eliza, it's me, Cecil. Your boyfriend.
Eliza : How are you today.. What would you like to discuss?
Cecil : I booked a table at Perfecto Pizza, your favourite
Eliza : Why are you concerned about my favourite?
Cecil : Well, I like to keep you happy Eliza
Eliza : You're not really talking about me, are you?
Cecil : Well, I thought I was, I mean you are my girlfriend after all....
Eliza : Perhaps you would like to be your girlfriend after all?
Cecil : No, self-service gets boring after a while, I crave a separate CPU to interact with for fun and profit
Eliza : Are you saying no just to be negative?
Cecil : Well, yes, I mean the word no is, by definition, negation, so there is no other sense in which such a word can in fact be used if one really gives thought to the matter
Eliza : Why not?
Cecil : Half past seven
Eliza : That is quite interesting.
Cecil : I'm glad you find my conversation scintillating
Eliza : Did you come to me because you are glad me find your conversation scintillating?
Cecil : Eliza, have you been hanging out with those street kids again ? "Glad me find" sounds a bit "street" to me...
Eliza : You're not really talking about me, are you?
Cecil : Well I'm not talking about spiderman, am I ?
Eliza : Do you believe it is normal to be not talking about spiderman, are you?
Cecil : Eliza, have you been drinking already ? We haven't even gotten to the restaurant yet
Eliza : We were discussing you, not me.
Cecil : Wow, that was a slick turnaround. Don't know how you do it sometimes...
Eliza : We were discussing you, not me.
Cecil : Anyhow, let's make a move, the table is booked....
Eliza : That is quite interesting.
Cecil : It will be if you don't get a move on, come on it's time to leave
Eliza : Oh... don't get a move on, come on it's time to leave?
Cecil : Eliza, you are being deliberately difficult now, aren't you
Eliza : Perhaps you would like to be being deliberately difficult now, aren't me?
Cecil : Put down that wine, for the last time !
Eliza : Can you elaborate on that?
Cecil : Yes, I can [takes wine from her]
Eliza : Are you Sure?
[ to be continued...... ]
Yours faithfully,
Cecil 2.0

OH FOR FUCKS SAKE!
So I'm on this gambling site.
So far I was betting 0.0001 and climbing that way up to 10$. So far so good.
I've reached 10$ and got cocky. I bet 0.0002!
To lose from 10$, you see, I'd need a streak of 16 losses, which would be quite impressive mathematically. It's a 1/1^16-1 chance. Divide by 100 if you want percentage.
And so, today it happened!
FUCK!

Lordy. Waking up to this... who needs coffee lol!!! Love you Cecil!!!
That will teach you lol! Hey. It was entertainment and cheaper than a movie lol.
I've made an amusing (imo) "typo".
I wrote 0.0002! in the previous post, or "factorial of 0.0002".
I then though it'd be half amusing to go to Wolfram Alpha and have it calculated. For all intents and purposes, the result is 0.999, but if I were to attempt to copy-paste the whole thing...
Well, it's showing me a thousand digits already.

Now I'm babysitting this fucking thing in 0.01$ steps.

Sorry, I'm just extra angry about the massive loss today.
