White, came across an article on Ford, GM and the UAW collaborating on ventilators for the virus. Notice who's missing? lol

It appears that the flat-earthers, 9/11 conspiracy theorists, and the "we never went to the moon" crew have some new bedfellows.

From the article: "... some believe that viruses are able to communicate through radio waves, and thus the 5G network is assisting coronavirus in its spread."

Like if they don’t have the right size of product, but have the exact same thing in a bigger size then they will swap it for the bigger size and you won’t pay anything more for it. Also if you have to wait more than 20-25 minutes they will take $10-$15 off your total for the inconvenience. And the total cost for Kroger is $5 extra. Beats the heck out of dealing with all the gross unhygienic people inside.
Man, that's the best I've heard yet !

Hey white, how did that Walmart delivery go ?

Ohio, sounds like you had a good Target experience. Are you guys getting the items your looking for ? - vs the "out of stock" dilemma. ?

LOL

What's really funny about this is Birmingham isn't a city that needs a reason to do something like this. Hate to see what they're capable of doing if they think they have a reason to keep this up. This was a first but I'd heard the "Chinese Military" conspiracy stories. Typical though that telecom people have been getting abused even if they have nothing to do with 5G. It's amazing what people can do to each other but people will make up anything to explain what they don't know.

You'd think what Italy went through they might have wanted to get onboard. Guess not though.

Drove for almost an hour this afternoon and couldn't get it to happen today. ??? It was about 15 degrees warmer yesterday. Don't know if that would make a difference or not?

Brew: I picked up dishwasher and regular dish detergent, some hair-care products, and some vitamins. No problema.

I think the Wife set it up to deliver on Tuesday. Some of what she ordered is for Easter Sunday dinner, so she wanted to delay it a bit. She was telling me though there is a catering business out of SLC that is delivering groceries from SLC to our area. We actually prefer Smith's, which is a Kroger company. So I don't know what she'll do, LOL. I work about 2 blocks from a Smith's but I don't really like going to the store in SLC right now, as SLC is currently the highest in COVID cases.

And that sucks, because I'm out of fertilizer for my lawn, and the place that makes the stuff I like is in SLC.

BTW, I've been ordering stuff from HD too. I've got a bunch of batteries and furnace filters on the way.
