Her cap and gown was sent to my house so she came down and got it today. I had to talk with her and her boyfriend through my front window and watch them take pictures. Getting some of her tuition back would be a nice graduation gift--https://www.foxnews.com/us/student-sues-indiana-university-tuition-reimbursement-covid-online-courses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leathernecks Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 My little town of 1400 is up to 9 confirmed cases. A pork processing plant about 30 minutes from here had a big outbreak, and I think a lot of our cases were people who worked there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at some of these state rates. Interesting read on states that have been providing this data: Very interesting. Also, a little discouraging to see Indiana to have one of the lower percentages. That means it is more prevalent in the general community here than in almost every ther state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last weekend when the weather was amazing, pontoons on Morse packed to the limit, waterfront decks full of partiers. It was every bit as busy as 4th of July. I counted 17 watercraft in my line of sight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still see people out but I see plenty of social distancing type get togethers. Large yards or parks with space between....but I must admit I'm only speaking a very narrow window of area in Indy/Carmel area. I don't venture out much anyway.

mrflynn03 Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Have had a couple coworkers get off of work to be on quarantine because they live with people who have tested positive. Guess what they decided to do? One has been in Kentucky with his girlfriend for a month and the other is in Maryland partying with friends for a week. WTH?

5fouls Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Just remember. If your hair-cut place of choice is already booked solid, your favorite restaurant has no available tables due to seating reductions, and if tattoos are not your thing, you can still visit your local massage parlor starting today. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No kidding. I really hope we here in Indiana see the same results as our comrades down south. After going to the Walmart garden center yesterday morning I'm a tad nervous on the reboot. People walking around the store....no gloves, masks, carrying their starbucks. I'm happy for those who want and get to go back to work...but I won't be partaking in any of this until I see some solid numbers in a couple of weeks.

I'm going to try and get a haircut sometime this week. I don't have much to begin with, so when it gets a little shaggy, it just emphasizes the point. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
