I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

I'm really looking forward to seeing how many shutdown protesters get sick.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I mean, was this a new thing for him to realize or did he think he needed to be in the closet for his career all this time?

It sounds like he's playing a gay character and felt that it was necessary to come out in order to honestly portray this character.

Some purposefully created gridlock and abandoned cars in an intersection that is a direct route taken by many ambulances to the hospital.

I hope if any ambulances were delayed they are arrested and charged with like, assault or manslaughter or something. That is evil.

Some are the same people who were agitating for it being legal to run over protesters, I expect.

What is even happening?

Flour seems to be harder to get, I've just looked at a couple websites....

Theodosia, check with your local bakeries.

I know a few weeks ago, the owner of Colarusso's in Stoneham (which is right on Main St/Rte 28) told our nearby town's FB page that he'd sell customers flour for something like $0.75 a pound. Here's a post where they say they'll sell you flour, eggs, etc: [link]

I see Roma's Bakery in Woburn is also selling flour, curbside [Phone: (781) 932-6496]: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And I know this is the least important thing, but the Porter Square Star had some flour first thing Sunday morning, but none Saturday afternoon, so I think it's just about timing.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks for the link, David. I'm glad he's comfortable enough to come out.

?I hope if any ambulances were delayed they are arrested and charged with like, assault or manslaughter or something. That is evil.

I was listening to the scanner live as it was happening, so I'm not sure if any arrests took place, but when the police are aggravated at you, you know you're doing it wrong.

PA had its turn for idiot protesters today. Some purposefully created gridlock and abandoned cars in an intersection that is a direct route taken by many ambulances to the hospital. It's infuriating and I have zero sympathy for these assholes. Some people had kid in wagons and no masks, with no social distancing. I just can't.

As I said on another board about the situation in Michigan, I'd be perfectly fine with PA's governor giving EMTs serving affected hospitals access to some M1 Abrams ambulances courtesy of the National Guard to clear those obstructed roads.

Another board, Matt?

How long has this been going on?
