1. Another GOP state whose governor doesn't believe in social distancing.

2. I worked in meat plants when I was young. They'd be perfect breeding grounds for virus transmission

3. Hall County in 2016 Election

in the 2016 Presidential election, Trump received over 65% of the votes. Hillary received 28%. Insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. I guess we'll see how insane the Hall County voters are in November.

4. Aren't they planning to reopen a large outlet mall in Nebraska tomorrow?

Nebraska Crossing? I hope no employees show up. These ignoramuses are murderers.

5. I already started rationing my meat supply. I don't have a big freezer but it's jammed with

mostly meat products. I was thinking it could last for two months if it had to, but I'm going to try and stretch it a lot farther. I hope to replace what I use from here on when I make my bi-weekly grocery run. I expect shortages and won't be too picky.

I sure picked the right year to lose a bunch of weight. I've been on a diet for over 18 months. I already was eating less than a pound of meat products every day, sometimes quite a bit less. I'm close enough to my goal to have more carbs now and that's what I've really been missing anyway. Pancakes and oatmeal instead of bacon, sausage and eggs sounds pretty good now anyway. I'll have breakfast meats for lunch every other day or so to use up the sausage and bacon I have stashed.

I'm making my first attempt at homemade refried beans today. I always liked that in tacos and stuff well enough but have been told homemade is way better. If that is really good, I'll get myself a fifty gallon drum of pinto beans and be able to hold out for years.
