If you tell a classroom that ON AVERAGE men are taller than women, a woman will stand up and say that’s not true because Jennifer is taller than Steve.

 

and almost all the class will smirk at you because your argument has been destroyed right there

 

but the same smirkers will swallow anything in the name of science involving predictions of the future

...with this news, Toilet Paper futures are up 87%.............

Taco Bell prepares to go 'drive-thru and delivery only' amid coronavirus outbreak

By Michael Hollan | Fox News

 

Taco Bell doesn't plan to close during the coronavirus pandemic, but restaurant dining rooms may soon be off-limits.

The fast-food chain recently announced that it's taking steps to close dining areas, operating only through drive-thru and delivery options.

Mark King, CEO of Taco Bell Corp., posted a letter Saturday stating that the company has "an obligation to do something to help stop this from spreading."

Workers at power plants are going to be told to stay home when government shuts down the country for 14 days.

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.

It is sad but til more people take this seriously it's the only way. They are closing things to try to force people to practice social distancing and avoid places with lots of people.

We’re supposed to go on 4/26. Not holding out much hope it will happen but it’s all booked on Marriott / southwest points anyways so no reason to cancel yet.

Taco Bell during a toilet paper shortage seems unwise.
