Surfers. The Great Philosophers of our time


An unlikely hero: Surfer sets up toilet paper exchange on California street corner

ENCINITAS, Calif. — Jonny Blue, a 33-year-old physical therapist and avid surfer from Encinitas, was seriously bummed Friday night. So on Saturday morning Blue took a cardboard sign bearing the simple request — “Share your toilet paper” — and camped out on the corner of El Camino Real and Encinitas Boulevard.

“This guy came here and said he just ran out and was going to a bunch of stores and couldn’t find any,” Blue said as cars whizzed by. “Somebody had given me some toilet paper so I gave it to him. He was stoked.”

“It just inspired me to remind people, listen, if you have a lot of something that probably means there are people who probably don’t have very much of it, because you took it all,” Blue said. “So sharing it is probably a good thing to keep in mind.”

“I just want to encourage everyone to be better,” he said. “Difficult times can reveal us to ourselves and help us see ourselves more clearly.”

glad to see that my normal prepping pays off once again. i've not had to visit a store in almost three months for basic needs. i have even been eating fresh tomatoes from the family greenhouse since February. milk (dairy and goat) and as always fresh eggs (scored two dozen duck eggs this past weekend) obtained locally. the ol' home garden is gonna be awesome this year too!
hopefully, those grasshoppers that were caught unprepared will learn.

as a side note... i really don't understand the panic over toilet tissue and bottled water.

as always.... DON'T PANIC....

------------------15 Days to Slow the Spread

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


    Listen and follow the directions of your state and local authorities.

    If you feel sick, stay home. Do not go to work. Contact your medical provider.

    If your children are sick, keep them at home. Do not send them to school. Contact your medical provider.

    If someone in your household has tested positive for the coronavirus, keep the entire household at home. Do not go to work. Do not go to school. Contact your medical provider.

    If you are an older person, stay home and away from other people.

    If you are a person with a serious underlying health condition that can put you at increased risk (for example, a condition that impairs your lung or heart function or weakens your immune system), stay home and away from other people.

------------------------Do your part to slow the spread of the coronavirus

    Even if you are young, or otherwise healthy, you are at risk and your activities can increase the risk for others. It is critical that you do your part to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

    Work or engage in schooling from home whenever possible.

    If you work in a critical infrastructure industry, as defined by the Department of Homeland Security, such as healthcare services and pharmaceutical and food supply, you have a special responsibility to maintain your normal work schedule. You and your employers should follow CDC guidance to protect your health at work.

    Avoid social gatherings in groups of more than 10 people.

    Avoid eating or drinking at bars, restaurants, and food courts - use drive-thru, pickup, or delivery options.

    Avoid discretionary travel, shopping trips, and social visits.

    Do not visit nursing homes or retirement or long-term care facilities unless to provide critical assistance.

    Practice good hygiene: Wash your hands, especially after touching any frequently used item or surface.

    Avoid touching your face.

    Sneeze or cough into a tissue, or the inside of your elbow.

    Disinfect frequently used items and surfaces as much as possible.

*School operations can accelerate the spread of the coronavirus. Governors of states with evidence of community transmission should close schools in affected and surrounding areas. Governors should close schools in communities that are near areas of community transmission, even if those areas are in neighboring states. In addition, state and local officials should close schools where coronavirus has been identified in the population associated with the school. States and localities that close schools need to address childcare needs of critical responders, as well as the nutritional needs of children.

**Older people are particularly at risk from the coronavirus. All states should follow Federal guidance and halt social visits to nursing homes and retirement and long-term care facilities.

***In states with evidence of community transmission, bars, restaurants, food courts, gyms, and other indoor and outdoor venues where groups of people congregate should be closed.

But what about this NY-NJ-CT 8PM-5AM curfew?  What's that supposed to do?

Your link makes a good point.  It claims, accurately, that the CDC began to hire many quarantine program public health advisors in many states 6 months BEFORE novel corona virus was supposed discovered in China.  Almost as if they KNEW it would be released.  Here is the CDC actual website link from today with its jobs opening:
https://jobs.cdc.gov/job/dallas/public-health-advisor-quarantine-program/250/14136286
The job openings say they started in November.

Corona started in December, per https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/novel-coronavirus-your-questions-answered.

The governor of Washington State has closed public schools, gatherings of more than 50 people, food courts, taverns, coffee and doughnut shops, ice cream parlors, wine and beer tasting venues, breweries and distilleries, beauty salons, barbers, nail salons, gyms and fitness centers, non-travel card rooms, museums, galleries, theaters, bowling alleys, tattoo parlors, youth sports and youth clubs.  Food service places may remain open for take-out only.  Toilet paper is nowhere to be found in stores. 

Interesting, I don't see casinos?  But many have shut down anyhow per the news.
