The Daily Messenger: More updates on the ongoing doom thing

The Daily Messenger: More updates on the ongoing doom thing: DB - the Village Dork 3 weeks ago, I discussed the unpleasant fact that by months end, our landscape would resemble China's in early January. As so it has become. In another ten days, the reality in America will resemble a bad video game. It's true. All the other predictions have come to pass, so will the rest of it, sad to say. ...

The Daily Messenger: All schools closed in California

The Daily Messenger: All schools closed in California: According to a teacher I just spoke with, all classes moved online. we had five inches of rain on Monday



We had high winds which knocked out power for TWO DAYS, with us stuck at home with no power or heat for two days with lows of 18 degrees at night.  Well, thank God for candles, which we had lit in the bedroom to put out some heat.  We have those survival sleeping bag thingys, which kept us warm, and brought all cat stuff into the room so they, too, could be warm.  At night candles were blown out, cats covered with towels and blankets.  Have a decorative candle holder which I was able to put a cup of water on to heat for tea and a small pot to heat up leftovers, both of which helped warm us up.

Only a few schools are closed here.

And people pointing guns at others here fighting over stupid toilet paper & paper products.

REALLY?!

Ever heard of a washrag with soap and water?  Not as convenient, but doable. People still managed before toilet paper was invented.

Sounds a lot like that dindu problem described, except it's not dindus going crazy here.  It's other folks.

Our friends here told us about this going on at Super 1.  That's what we heard on the message

If we can survive two freezing nights at 18 degrees WITHOUT heat, then these idiots can use a washcloth with soap and water to clean their rear end.  Sheesh!

People fighting over toilet paper.  Get a bidet.  What did the early pioneers use, eh?
