He closed "Non essential Businesses"...despite how he wants to twist it or call it, he just did the same thing other states have done. Its basically a "shelter in place" without calling it that. Honestly its all dumb as hell

Yeah thats what Ive been trying to explain to people...People freak out about the terminology but like you said, we're pretty much already doing what the definition entails. A few more retail locations (mostly clothing and entertainment) will close and maybe some offices but a lot stays open and people will still venture out the house for various reasons. Its terminology meant to be stern in the hopes that some people that can, actually do stay home.

Lol true.

Just got a letter from my employer that i have to carry around while driving for work in case I get pulled over, stating to any law enforcement that Im considered "essential". Cool. How about more pay?

He may not make “rash” decisions but he is making proactive decisions...I believe Maryland was one of the first states to close restaurants and bars and that was when Md only had like a dozen cases if that. We are seeing runs on supplies, have you been to Costco’s and grocery stores? I bet a “shelter in place” order is coming if not today, then sometime later this week. that said, it’s really fancy terms meant to be “stern” with people. It’s really not much different than what we are already attempting to do. Essential business will remain open and people will still be leaving the house.

? Why a definitive no

Pretty sure. “Essential personnel actually includes a wide range of things. Even the liquor store is considered essential lol unless he does an executive order to shut those down. It mainly effects non essential retail like clothing stores/entertainment etc oh and I think auto dealers would shut down so no car buying

Probably but it’s really not all that much different than what we’re already doing. Just fancy wording and maybe he’ll enact a curfew. I’ll still have to work so

I’f you’re feeling frisky, watch fast times at ridge mont high if you wanna see a little more of Phoebe Cates...but I’m sure you know that lol

I know, I’m just saying that’s why the deaths are so much higher there. Despite further spread, I doubt the US has anywhere near that number of deaths

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2020-03-18/99-of-those-who-died-from-virus-had-other-illness-italy-says 99% of Italy’s deaths are underlying conditions. And an overwhelming majority of deaths are over 70 years old. Italy has an extremely old population. I can’t speak to why it has spread so fast there, but that is why there are so many deaths when there are only about 200 in the US with I think what 21,000 cases now

If you’re looking for part time work let me know. I’m sure when things ramp up again they’re gonna be looking to hire

Well now that recreation is shut down, not much lol. Change a couple trash cans. But when it’s busy with soccer/lacrosse we have to spray paint the fields, field upkeep etc. It’s generally a pretty cake job.

I work here part time. Saturday morning shift

Yeah it gives me some entertainment while I sit here doing nothing lol

At Meadowood park up in Timonium, a few walkers but not a lot yet. I bet yesterday was rocking here though. check that, the outdoor yoga mom group just showed up lol

Their median age is 10 years older than the US....That has a lot to do with at least the number of deaths anyway

GFS pretty awful too...As if this wasnt predictable...not that most of us had a chance anyways

Well the Icon turned into an awful run...No snow for anybody

Well the 12z Canadian isnt AS snowy, but still snow verbatim kind of a 1-4" thing area wide

By the way, I was on the news (Wbal) last night...I was getting take out at Jimmys Seafood and WBAL pulls up as Im walking out and they asked to interview me. They aired about a 4 second clip where I said my gf went to the grocery store earlier and we'll just have to hunker down for a while...problem is, they got me confused with the pizza delivery driver they interviewed after me! So my famous name is Wayne Harle (my name is Chris)

Thanks for infecting all the wingys with corona virus

Go on Take the money and run....

Glad i went bar hopping yesterday! Paid a visit to Full Tilt brewery (first time), it was pretty cool and Nacho Mammas Towson.

Yeah my girlfriend works for Siemens and they told her to work from home remotely starting on Monday. Fortunately she has that luxury....I do not, but I dont see how my business can close unless the gov't forces it. I dont think the coronavirus is gonna stop diesel trucks from breaking down lol
