Same thing happened down on another

thread, somebody threw up a road block,

then called the cops, blue lights over there,

they are rerouting traffic and everything.

Maybe there was a head on crash or clash,

or something. At least it seems they finally

got things back under control. Hope that

doesn't happen over this here thread.

For all the good Neosporin would do against a virus, people might as well use olive oil.

It doesn't stop most infections, but it prevents the mucus membrane from drying which leads to a higher chance of contracting an illness.

The 3 biggest brands use SDA40B ethanol.
It's a denatured alcohol so the manufacturer doesn't have to pay liquor tax.
It's a quite benign denaturing. Has about 1200 ppm of tertiary butyl alcohol and around 5 ppm bitrex. (Denatonium benzoate or saccharide.)
The first tastes bad, the second is super, super bitter. In combination, they have an emetic effect.
So, tastes horrible and you it up.
No amount of mixer's gonna help the latter!!!

Don't try to buy, or hoard anything

At this point, CDC isn't issuing any directives because it doesn't want hoarding of masks.

24. If you don't have a mask, would a bandanna do as well?

My mother was suggesting this.

Maybe wear a hijab, or whichever garment it is that covers all of your face but the eyes.

... or would I be better off with a bong ?

Germs & Covid-19 are not an issue because I only smoke pot with my miniature poodle and my pet hamster. Oh, and then their is my pet snake, she loves to smoke pot too.

What should I do ? Any suggestions ?

Just don't let the snake drink any alcohol. As for the hamster, he should have a bandanna on to protect him from the flu and other illnesses.
