The Drudge report can be dangerous to your health ...

There's nothing but doom and gloom in it. According
to Drudge we've got about three days left to live.

I went out yesterday to get some wood pellets. I expected
there wouldn't be too much in the way of traffic on the roads,
Boy, was I wrong, there were just as many cars wizzing around as ever.

Mountain View, Arkansas, on the other hand, is shut down. You can only get take-out food -- no sit down dining -- and the Diocese of Little Rock has ordered priests to say private masses, only.

Doom and gloom? You dont like competition in that department I guess.

It is not just Mountain View it is the whole State. In Northwest Ark. all the sporting events are cancelled, all the Churches are closed, the stores are out of a lot of things but the only thing that you can't find is toliet paper and the Wal-Mart store's parking lots are full. Wal-mart will have a better month this March than any other month in the last 25 years.

You paint an accurate picture.

Yep, about like that in Little Rock.
That said, I have never seen so many families out walking in the neighborhoods, couples, kids, teens, and dogs on leashes too. Folks are greeting each other cordially, introducing themselves, etc. Having a lot of "entertainments" shut down seem to have some silver linings.

Seeing a bunch of teens on bicycles , building what sure looked like "the jump ramp" made me chuckle.

the State park I live near has many a mile of mountain bike trails,

a good friend rides it several times a week, and mentioned that this weekend the trails were busier than he ever recalled seeing them,

more traffic it seemed on the trails than on the roads in most areas

[M1Tommy]

Families picnicking in parks, groups of kids riding bicycles and 'hanging out' on porches, people sitting on front porches.... pretty incredible!

We're back to the 1940s!

[M1Tommy]

Ha!.... could be, or late 60/early 70s in Hot Springs I remember.... well excepting the strip clubs on Central, beat-downs if you were caught in the 'wrong parts' of town, warnings to have your tetanus shot up to date if you swam in Lake Hamilton or Catherine... good old days! LOL!!!
