When the models end up being inaccurate, there will still be people complaining that they weren't accurate. [sarcasm]Cue weatherperson response... [/sarcasm]

Call your pharmacy. My daughter works at some of the Meijer pharmacies in the Milwaukee area. The way they have handled it is to fax the information to the doctor's offices. It sounds like the doctor's offices have been responding to those. You can't call, but they have experienced that the doctor's offices usually respond to fax.

Every business is essential. If it provides a service and people go to it for goods or services it is essential. Unfortunately small business owners can't just close up shop and then hope some magical unicorn comes around and pays their rent/mortgage and then buys them food and other necessities. Yes they can. That magical unicorn is called the SBA. Um... no it isn't. Just because you sign up for something doesn't mean it is going to be approved. My partner is submitting the forms, but our financial institution needs to do some due diligence. I don't think we will be denied, but that unicorn may not be as magical as implied.

Follow up: Ended up buying a fridge. They dropped it off and we had to install it. Darn heavy. Dump not open yet. Old one sitting at the back of the house. -
And ran a 4.47 at Michigan's pro day, just for the record. Yeah, he isn't a burner, but that combine 40 time was considered an aberration at the time, and it still is to this day. But if you don't like the guy, it's an easy number to grab onto. He doesn't really play like a 4.47 guy, either, though. What he is is a huge target with an enormous wingspan who can theoretically create mismatch problems with CBs due to his size, and on safeties and LBs due to his speed. I like Allen Lazard, but Funchess is basically a more talented version of him. The ceiling is higher, but because Lazard seems possibly a little more technically skilled and probably brings better hands to the table, he has a higher floor. So would Cephas' 40 time at the combine be considered an aberration? I suppose we will have to wait and see...

From what generation did all of the kids go on spring break this year? I know it is a relative sample size, but people in their late teens / early to mid 20's don't seem to take this as serious as older folks.

... and then it still doesn't work. ***? We have had problems with the water line freezing. Fortunately after the ice maker so we still get ice, but no water. Our only fix (which was temporary) was to remove everything and let the line thaw out. I had checked the water line -- we were all good there. I have noticed that the freezer and the refrigerator have been "warmer" lately. Condenser may be failing. We have been looking for a new unit, but nobody will do an install with COVID-19 issues. We turned down the temperature and it seems to be running ok for now.

Kenmore ice maker doesn't dispose ice into the dispenser. I check the infrared light -- "no error codes." End up replacing the ice maker. When I turned it on, the water filled up, it made ice, but it still sits in the tray. This... yes... this is bugging me...

Replacing ice makers isn't all that hard...

Fortunately, my cold is requiring multiple handkerchiefs. No fever. It felt like it might be strep a few days ago, but fortunately, phlegm is aplenty. Stupid question (wait... there are no stupid questions, just stupid people that ask questions): if I get tested today and it comes back negative, when should I go back and get tested? Just because I don't have it today, doesn't mean that I will never get it.

I wonder if NFL owners are getting tested. I own stock in the Packers, so...

Bold added for emphasis, as this is a big difference- non-essential businesses have been closed. Meaning, you can go to get food and gas, etc., but a lot of other businesses will be shut down. Working from home will obviously continue for those that can, though. I'm curious to see how various states define essential vs. non-essential. For example I work in manufacturing producing paper. So I don't know where I'd fall on that. Spoke to a client this morning who lives in a suburb of Chicago. He was ready to have the contractor come in and finish his kitchen -- non-essential. However, if you have a plumbing emergency -- essential. The demand for TP is high -- do you create that type of paper?

That's because they executed them all. Can't spread the virus if you are dead. Permission granted to use the sarcasm tag... [sarcasm]... unless you weren't being sarcastic... [/sarcasm]

Why didn't I buy APRN a week ago?

Not sure Marquette would beat Kansas. I'll take it, though!!!!!

I know it is late... Did you "Beware the Ides of March?" Et tu Stalton... Sadly I did no such bewaring. ... then fall Caesar...

It will be interesting to see how Brady works with Bruce Arians. I'm thinking it will be a very good fit.

I remember watching it on beIn sports as recently as a year or two ago. I currently don't have that in my TV package, unfortunately.

The NCAA canceled their biggest money maker and one of the biggest ones in all of sports. I don't get what you are trying to infer. Why would they have not canceled events if they were paying players? The NBA didn't cancel their season, tournament, etc. Neither did the NHL. They postponed them. This means that there is still a chance they could play. The NCAA did cancel, as you stated, the biggest tournaments of the year. Why did the NBA, NHL, etc. not cancel their seasons? My guess is that there is big money involved. Cancelling the season affects the teams, venues, and players monetarily. If the students (in essence "players") were getting paid to play basketball, would they have been more likely to postpone the tournament instead of cancel it? I know the concept of players getting paid in college is not iron clad. Would the players be upset if they would not receive a paycheck for playing in the NCAA tournament? Would people feel bad for them? So... my inference is that the NCAA would have been more likely to postpone it. I'm not saying they would have postponed it instead of cancelled it. I'm simply proposing that the discussions might have been different. Perhaps after 30 days, they would have cancelled it if the virus isn't under control.
