A store manager last week at one of our stores was commenting that no one seems to understand that the corona virus attacks the top end. The overreacting news media has the sheeple in a panic.

Too bad we don't have phone books. They lasted a long time in the outhouse. Though one morning I remember I went through all the "M's" .......

Empty shelves in central IL as well. Dumb luck had us running low last week before the hoarders went berserk, and I went home with the usual 20 roll pack (cheapest per roll) which lasts us many weeks.

Here in central Florida Jr. went to Wal mart Sat evening for a regular grocery run. He said the shelves were empty on toilet paper. If you wanted any you had to que up at the lay away counter and you could buy 1 package. He said every thing else seemed to pretty much on the shelves as normal.
Anybody remember years ago when there was a toilet paper shortage tat seems was traced back to Johnny Carson. It seems that one night he came out to do his nightly monologue and he wasn't getting very many laughs so he made up something about the upcoming shortage then before you knew it there was a buying frenzy that caused a real shortage. I think that was in the early 70's.

Yep, true story. That's pretty much how it unfolded. I suppose with all of the hoarding nowadays, one must consider "BYOTP" if you visit anyone :D
