How are the grocery stores stocked? My parents will be going up at the end of the month. My wife and 2 of our kids will be flying up June 4 while my eldest and I will be driving up the same day. We'll be going to our houses (parents' and ours on 20 acres) on Lake Huron between Rogers City and Cheboygan.

Bring your own meat, canned goods, bread, most frozen products, toilet paper and paper towels. Other than that... Fine.

People are getting a bit hateful here in Possum Fart, VA. Hope Gov Coonman lifts restrictions soon. We can’t get any new hires because most people make more money sitting at home and corporate would rather go under than raise wages enough to encourage more applications. One guy that did apply failed his drug test.

A little light but true humor:

Explaining the Pandemic to my Past Self

I guess I'll have to bring the 5th wheel up then.

WTF????

When did the bitch do this, today?

So, what's the new date now?

We're imprisoned until mid-June?

Shit.

What about offices opening back up on the 15th of this month?

Going effing stir crazy.

Update from the Military Times:
Only people who were hospitalized with the disease are now being barred.

As I suspected, though, it appears that uncertainties about long-term effects are driving the issue. From the article:

“With so little research available on the long-term implications of a COVID-19 infection, MEPCOM is erring on the side of caution. Preliminary studies have found significant lung damage in COVID-19 patients, which could affect fitness for combat in a service member. There are also questions as to whether the antibodies provide any protection against re-infection, or if one bout with coronavirus could make a person more susceptible to another.”

She just closed all state parks until late June. Apparently people were caught last weekend enjoying the 70+ weather. Punishment delivered.

Here is the detailed plan to reopen Michigan. All businesses can reopen in Phase 6.

Phase 6
Reaching this phase would mean that community spread is not expected to return because of sufficient community immunity and availability of treatment.

As a result, the number of infected individuals falls to nearly zero, and the community does not typically experience this strain of the virus returning.

All areas of the economy reopen in this phase, and gatherings of all sizes can resume.



Yes you read that right... There has to be zero cases and no chance of return before everything can open. For all practical purposes, maybe 2021 to never.

For those of us imprisoned by the evil queen of MI and who might be wondering about her executive orders:
Its now 60+ in 57 days.
Rather than the filing of a lawsuit, the legislature should be mobilizing an aggressive statewide signature drive to remove her from office.
I would be happy to wear a mask to sign that!

What is the option for IMPEACHMENT of the Michigan Governor?

What the fuck?

NY suspends 1st Amendment --- De Blasio, NYPD commissioner: No protests allowed in NYC

The thing about the military not accepting people who've been hospitalized by the virus is not true. The said policy memo is a draft that got leaked. Per Chariman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff - Gen. Mark Milley. Link

Further, even if it was true, the number of enlistment-age people hospitalized by the virus and who don't have some other underlying and disqualifying condition has to be an extremely small number.

^^^^^^^
Yeah another non story by someone pushing an agenda. The military excludes people from enlistment all the time for all sorts of conditions.

Holy shit, she’s gone full Pritzker. Sorry man.

Life is as good as can be expected in s Indiana. Plenty of meat in Kroger today and prices were same as usual. About 2/3rds wore masks but I got no evil eye because I didn't. Indiana has gop house, senate and governor and our local mayor is gop along with a majority of city council. I am disappointed in Menards. They are forcing customers to wear masks if you want to shop. I needed to shop there a couple days ago so I paid a buck and bought one of their disposable masks but today I needed something from a hardware store so I called Menards and asked if their silly mask rule was still in effect. It is and it's a corporate decision. I said fine, Rural King is closer anyway.

Since March there have been large gatherings in our riverfront parks on pretty days. No one complains or tries to be a Fauci fascist.

Louisville is in plain sight and they are having a hell of a time worrying about we reckless hoosiers but then they have a snowflake governor and Louisville's ultra liberal mayor both spend their time thinking up ways to control their minions and keep them from enjoying freedom that's just across the river.

You know it’s serious when it’s in response to a WTFBBQ group. They never get told no on anything these days.

Won't be a problem as we won't be camping in Michigan. Public and private campgrounds are closed in Ohio as well. We can stop at a Wal-Mart in Ohio if we have to, but the plan is to get through Ohio to Ann Arbor where my wife and two younger kids will be. The 5th wheel has an 18cuft fridge so I can bring quite a lot of food up. I wanted to leave it home, since Cedar Point isn't happening for us this year. On the other hand, I wasn't sure how to carry 4 kayaks, 5 bicycles, and all the rest of our stuff for the summer in the truck alone. Plus, we have guests coming up this summer and our house is only 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, so the extra space would be good.

I wonder how closing the state parks affects the boat ramps in the state parks? I also have to wonder how it affects the ATV trails in the Black Mountain Recreation Area?

3 hours before PA’s stay at home lockdown order was set to expire, Emperor Tom Wolf extended it until JUNE 4TH.

My pregnant wife is spitting nails angry and may actually go get in her car, drive to Harrisburg, track this assclown down and beat the living shit out of him herself.
