For those wondering if they should cancel/postpone travel plans: Airbnb is offering 100% refunds. It took me less than a minute to cancel and get the refund going. I just spoke to my travel agent about canceling my trip to Puerto Rico (scheduled for 4/10 - 4/16). If I cancel now, I will get vouchers for my flights that I can use anytime within a year. My rental car will be refunded. If travel is restricted, airlines will be giving refunds. My cutoff to cancel is 48 hours prior, so I'm going to wait it out with hopes that I can get a refund.

Colts resign Costanza 2 Years $33 million
Gugny replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
These forced resignations are so confusing to me. -
My normal routine is to do a walmart/grocery store run every Saturday. Didn't even bother with Walmart. Other than laundry/bathroom supplies, toilet paper and paper towels, the only thing I get there is coffee (my local supermarket doesn't carry my coffee). I have plenty of all of that stuff, so I'll save myself the headache. Went to the market and was able get everything on my list except meat and some veggies. For some reason, people seem to be buying lots of bell peppers. They were out of green and red. All ground beef was gone. All italian sausage was gone - ground and links. There was no meat in the butcher's case at all (I was going to get shaved steak). Gonna try again today and go to multiple places if I have to. Apparently, people in my hometown normally have very few rolls of toilet paper at any given time and also have empty freezers.

New York restaurants and bars have to cap their seating capacity at half. This is going to have a significant impact on servers, bartenders and the owners of mom & pop diners, bars, etc. Servers and bartenders don't get PTO and most of their earnings are tips. I'm not saying it's the wrong thing to do; just emphasizing how sad it is.

Looks like I'm pretty late to this party, but I heard this for the first time just the other day. Snoop is hilarious. And he's a better singer than any of these new "real" country stars (like Luke Bryan, for example - that dude cannot sing). But wait .. there's MORE!!! Here's one with Snoop and Willie ...

Really good FAQ in this article: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28901832/nfl-cba-approved-players-get-new-deal-how-expanded-playoffs-schedule-work -
I thought JG3 was in fantastic shape all season.

Sometimes it's more obvious than others.

That's going to present a huge, difficult challenge. Out of a 45-person staff, I have 15 who have school-aged children. Most have backup childcare plans (family), but a few do not. If they are forced to stay home, it is still unclear as to how they will (or will not) be paid. Last I heard, they would need to use PTO or decide to go unpaid. What's worse is that those other employees who do NOT have children/daycare issues would be expected to come in. Naturally, that will lead to, "well if I had a child, I could just stay home and use my PTO/go unpaid." I'd love to think that everyone could see the big picture and work together on this, but I'm dealing with mostly millennials and … well … that cannot be expected. There could also be FMLA and/or NYS Paid Family Leave abuse. This whole thing could get very messy and ugly. I am prepared to have an evening shift, as well as Saturdays and Sundays, just to make more options for people to come in. Weeks of an abbreviated staff would cripple us for months. And we can't just hire temps to fill voids. That process takes forever. If I make an offer to a temp, it's an average of 3-4 weeks before their first day, due to a lengthy background check. By then, life will be back to normal.

I totally missed this thread/news. Did they restructure his ankle??? Well ... let's hope he is who we thought he was before last season. Perhaps an entire calendar year of being healthy will get him there. In Beane I Trust!!!

I've read that the Superintendent's Day strategy session is being used a lot. Rumors were swirling around the school yesterday, but no official communication has come from them yet. I can handle a school shut down since my son is gonna be 17 next week. I feel bad for families with children who will require daycare. I'm not sure if state-licensed daycare facilities would have to close, too. I do a grocery shop and a Walmart run every Saturday. I'm looking forward to seeing the shelves. I just checked the inventory here at home. 13 rolls of TP; 11 rolls of paper towels. As long as I can get my coffee and beer, it'll be another stress-free shopping day for me. EDIT: I just read that our local school district has no plans of closing unless they absolutely have to. In the case that they must, they are prepared and bus drivers have volunteered to deliver food to the homes of children in need.

Antonio Brown: Apology Tour - Preparing for return?
Gugny replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm sure he's got her back. In sickness and in hailf. -
In my line of work, very few people can work from home. I had to come up with a business continuity plan that would allow us to maintain 25% of our business. I had to take into consideration employees with children (most of those employees are single moms) and pretty much leave them out. That plan was to address partial quarantines. With the looming school closures, I had to ask all of my employees who would be affected (parents of school-aged children) if they would have a plan. Shockingly, most did. One of my colleagues in Indiana said that schools there were closing from today until 4/13. Others in CT said theirs were closing until the 6th. This is going to hurt us pretty bad. As far as my son's school district, every student has a school-issued Chromebook, but I don't know if every student has Internet at home and how that would work. Last I heard (this evening) is that many schools are still slow to close and are creating impromptu "Superintendent's Days," in order to plan. I'm shocked that as of 10pm I haven't gotten any notification.

Should The NFL Delay Free Agency?
Gugny replied to Mike in Horseheads's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This can all be done virtually, as can the draft. No need to delay. -
Random Place to Spot a Bills Logo

I saw that he also has a guitar with a Saints logo. From what I could gather, he's a Seahawks fan. -
