Association Executive, Political observer, auto enthusiast, and middle school girl’s athletic coach. An odd combination, but it’s better than being bored.

My gut tells me that those using the colloquial term #China Flu, as opposed to #COVID19 or #Coronavirus, have a higher purchase rate of goods #MadeInChina than those who don’t.

This includes #red hats, though certainly not red books.

I thought living in a #bananarepublic would at least mean having warmer weather...

@ThatEricAlper If I lay down on a three person couch, I won’t fit, but just by a little bit.

@goodreads Bond. James Bond.

@BballCoachMac I don’t believe any half court defense is any harder than another. However, teaching youth to break a full court trapping press can be very hard. No matter what you teach them, kids still want to dribble first before looking to pass.

I have found that #SocialDistancing on #socialmedia is also helpful.

@MikeEckhardt @KaminskiMK @maggieNYT @politico I agree, though I believe they just closed courses in Ohio as of midnight last night.

The ad that shows you the benefits of using water instead of paper by washing the “dirt” from ones hands... well the “dirt” doesn’t just wash off with water. The guy uses his other hand with the water. #IWillStickWithPaper

Without an hour a day commute, #WorkFromHome has reduced the number of books I listen to considerably. On the plus side, I now enjoy a real, non-Keurig, cup of coffee each morning. #COVID19

Every time I see these kinds of graphs, the announcer from the Kentucky Derby invades my brain. #ComingAroundTheOutside #NoisesInMyHead #CompletelyInappropriate https://t.co/xmSoMUSVbg

My loofah unraveled this morning. If people hoarded these like they did toilet paper, I’ll be pissed.

My dry cleaning bills have magically disappeared. #CasualFridayEveryday

Some businesses are being asked - required - to take employee temperature readings and supply hand sanitizer, but neither that nor thermometers are available for use. #WhyHoardersWhy

It’s been 30 years since college when I ate this much peanut butter and jelly, and @RealCapnCrunch cereal. #comfortfood

Lawmakers who denied the severity of #COVID19 should not be #workingfromhome

As I reduce my trips to the grocery (and move to Amazon for ongoing needs) I’ve come to realize that this means fewer bags to use to clean up after the dog. Well, shit...

This is why Governor DeWine issued this order today. Maybe if people weren’t so damn stupid... take heed now and we kill this thing sooner. Unfortunately, public selfishness is going to keep this around longer than we’d like. https://t.co/zJm60lcoCI

Since the NCAA cancelled #MarchMadness I am going to simply assume Duke loses this Thursday in the tournament’s first upset.

#SocialDistancing is the the chocolate to my #introverted peanut butter.

I’ve been taking this #COVIDー19 virus vey seriously; not all my colleagues agree. Here’s the thing... if I’m wrong, no one gets hurt, but if you are...
