    Ohio supposedly is opening the economy in a few days.

    My Daughter and I were just talking about that.
    She works for O.S.U. Medical and the word is the ___it is going to hit the fan in May
    She feels many people wont be responsible to others.
    I hope she's wrong but we'll see.

    Regards.....Gerald

    The Natives are getting restless, that can be a dangerous thing under the conditions that exist right now ... The neighbors wife is a Nurse, has not been home for this is the 11th day and the Virus does not seem to be the problem here right now any way ... The Governor is being very careful what he says in the daily up dates so he does not give any false hopes one way or the other ... I was at Cost Co yesterday talked to one of the Dept Managers, she said business is down about 20% since this started ... They had everything I was looking for except paper products, but for now we are good ... I really hope this is not the new normal but we will see before to long ... Stay safe and Stay well ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    I know here in Ohio where I live, the majority of shooters due to health issues and age are prime candidates for serious problems from this virus. Just imagine an infected person walking into one of our fine gun clubs in Ohio without mask and starts talking about the ''Old days at Vandalia''? He could conceivably wipe out some of the finest shooters in the country.:D

    The dirty little secret is state and local governments are starting to run out of money. They just can't print it off like the fed, and if there is a chance a local government worker might lose his job - well time to open things up and get people back to work and paying taxes. Gas consumption is down - gas taxes collected down, no casino revenue if casinos aren't open, closed bars don't pay food. beverage tax, etc..

    Things will open up as soon as there is a chance a government worker might lose his job. LOL Cynical but true.

    Now saying that I'm not going to be the first one to run down to the local sports bar and get a draft and a plate of wings after it reopens. As tempting as that sounds I'm going to keep my distance from people for a while.

    I would really love to go shoot a round of doubles at the club when it reopens, but I'll pass on that too for a while. Shooting isn't the problem - going into the clubhouse and waiting to get classified/squadded and paying will be the thing that keeps me away. I sure am glad I'm nothing at the club anymore. <VBG>

    I know a place that talking about the “Old days at Vandalia” is considered a virus.:D
