Coronavirus Outbreak

FYI - Amazon delivers TP... you don't even have to go out and buy it.

side note - this is a huge marketing opportunity for Amazon & their non-perishable items they sell (they're sold out of hand sanitizer as well)
Need Peanut Butter - Amazon Prime
Need soup - Amazon Prime
Need chips for the weekend - Amazon Prime

you get the picture. It's a prime picture.

Craft beer?????

No... but your basement is full isn't it? Do you deliver?

Well I wouldnt say full but I've got a couple kegs down there right now. I've still got an ESB on tap and I have a keg of freshly brewed Irish Red going into the kegerator this week. Then a few bottles still in the fridge from earlier brews that we did like IPAs, Chocolate Porters, Cucumber Wheat, and a few others I've probably forgot about.

I am always looking to try out new ones though.

Unfortunately for the US, Trump is still downplaying the Corona virus, comparing it to a simple flu. This is no surprise. Trump cares only about one thing. Himself. His only focus is holding on to power at any cost. Covid 19, in Trump's mind, is simply another fake news media story that is undermining his presidency. Trump's response to this threat illustrates exactly who and what he has always stood for. His own self interests at any cost.

"A lot of Americans thought they were electing the tough-minded realist executive they saw on the Apprentice. In fact they elected a marketer and celebrity whose deepest talent was believing his own PR. We are seeing the consequences now." - Ezra Klein

A lot
Americans thought they were electing the tough-minded, realist executive from The Apprentice when in fact they were electing a marketer and celebrity whose deepest talent was believing his own PR. We are seeing the consequences now. - Ezra Klein.

Now he wants to bail out the cruise and airline industries.

The WHO warned weeks ago that all countries need to take immediate serious precautions, stating very clearly "this is not a drill." All has done is restrict some travel and throw some money at it. It's definitely dropping the ball, and ordinary citizens and emergency workers are paying the price while Trump downplays the whole thing. Might cost him the election.

No need to turn this into a political debate. We've had some fun at the expense of the media and gullible crazy people but let's remember the thread is about the effect of the virus on fantasy hockey.

I'm guessing you have the Corona stored separately?

If you insert a small slice of lime directly into the corona it kills the virus instantly.

LOL! It's hard to go back to mass produced beer when you drink the craft stuff as much as I do so no Corona in my house. I had a Coors Light last night after my hockey game and I could have sworn I was still drinking from my water bottle that I have on the ice with me.

The politician who wore a gas mask to some meeting as a way to mock the coronavirus because he supports Trump has been quarantined because he was in contact with some Italian doctor. But before he was quarantined he had been in contact with Trump...

ALso San Jose Sharks might have to play games without a crowd due to a county ban on any event over 1,000 people.
