I have the ability to make endless beer if needed. Hard part would be waiting for the first batch to be done. Got wine covered and moonshine. Know how. My blacksmithing ain’t to bad either.

..and base metals haven’t had a recent run up...

I think I might need to get back on my meds. Google scrubbed it but wasn’t there an article a month ago about how the Chinese wanted to interfere in the US election to stop Trump? Do you think they cooked this virus in a lab to do just that?

Blacksmithing is very hard work though.

If a person had 100 bucks right now and had to feed a family of 4 for a month what would you buy?........Spam and canned veggies.

I was at the store this morning. Shelves still full. I went to Aldis the other day for TP and paper towels. The gal said....stocking up? Nope just my regular buy. I buy 10 12 packs of tp and 5 8 packs of paper towels at a time. Simply because I don’t want to think about it for awhile. Lol

Can’t buy surgical masks in PA. Not available for the most part on Amazon either.

That's just crazy. I'll starve clutching my gold/silver/stocks next to my cold dead body.

Same here, although it's hidden away. Some are claiming that silver (colloidal) is good for warding off illness. If grab a handful of my silver eagles and fondle them, will I be immune to the virus? (I know, crazy talk, but still... )

Maybe coffee filters will soon be used for masks...for those who didn't buy any, in advance

I saw an informative post the other day. Take a Kleenex tissue, repeatedly fold it like an accordion, alternating the folds every half inch or so. Then wrap a rubber band on each end. Tie another pair of rubber bands to use as loops over your ears. Expand the accordion shape over your mouth and ears - instant face mask.

Gold prices have been dropping. I would have thought they might have gone up as people abandon some stocks. I’m waiting for the bottom before buying but I am watching carefully as i expect a violent rebound.

I don’t bother to clean the handle on a grocery cart. It cracks me up when I see people push their cart to the sanitizer station.

Every thing else in the srore is covered in germs. Don’t touch your face, wash your hands when you leave the store. Wash your face and hands when you get home. I even use a neti pot.

I would leave small kids at home if possible during flu season because they don’t keep their hands away from their faces.

I would like to wear gloves though because the skin on my fingers is cracked from psoriasis.

I make my own colloidal copper. Kills surface microbes (better than colloidal silver I’ve read), good for skin and joint issues, too. Distilled water, copper wire & three 9-volt batteries in series.
