  1. This was a very relevant episode of our PBS station. https://schedule.wttw.com/episodes/502250/Influenza-1918-American-Experience
  2. I imagine that states will forbid travel between themselves when they make the decision to shelter themselves in place. I do not know if state officials know that once there is a peak that parts of the country "that continue to ignore the public health risks now" will simply not reinfect the states that had become a shelter in place. Of course, we do not know whether people can be reinfected.
  3. Does he at times look like porn star Matt Ramsey?
  4. If you have not seen "God's Own Country" Netflix is offering it. Terrifically acted by everyone involved (especially Gemma Jones, Ian Hart and Josh O'Connor - my future husband). I had seen it a couple of times before but glad I watched it again. Try it if you have not watched it.
  5. Hopefully they will be smart and issue you the refund of the 2-days deposit. They should figure out that if they do you probably will go there next year and pay them for the entire stay. If they are assholes let them know that Hacienda is right around the corner and you plan to spend all four days there.
  6. One lucky date. His eyes show his disbelief.
  7. I had accidentally bought a couple of large packs well before anything happened. Actually, I had bought one from Amazon but accidentally typed "2", but it turns out it ended up not being a mistake. I gave a couple of rolls to my elderly neighbor.
  8. Hacienda has had no problem sticking with their 14-day cancellation policy. Had the Weekend been a week or two earlier it would have been a 30-day policy. However if you checked in on the 17th you would be just under the wire. Now I just have to try to either have the airline make some other stipulation for their ticket or figure out how my travel insurance policy that I bought for the trip might cover the plane ticket during this time. I am going to cancel this year because my elderly aunt has been placed in isolation based on symptoms in her assisted living community. Of course, a COVID test is not to be had.
  9. I wrote the Hacienda when I was going to book and they told me it would be only 14 days (the Weekend was not within any event or holiday according to them). As for the plane, I booked through Expedia a while ago and bought travel insurance at the same time. I tried reading through the policy a few days ago and could not real understand it. However I am going to try again. Plus I am not sure if the federal/state governments may make some decisions as it is their policies that are making the decisions whether you can go on a plane, etc. I think that my policy allows a certain amount of time after the trip is scheduled in order to make a claim.
  10. California has cut all restaurant and bar capacities in half and mandates required "social distancing." https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/california-governor-closes-bars-cuts-213212712.html
  11. I would definitely comply with their 14 day deadline (I believe the Weekend falls within that). I had to cancel last year and they had no problem refunding because it was within the 14 days.
  12. Hacienda has also had a 14 day policy of cancellation so anyone there has a short time. I would imagine they might reconsider if flights are being cancelled. I wonder if other resorts such as the Inndulge will do the same or already has a 14 day policy.
  13. I thought this was a nice retrospective done by the NYT. Not extensive but might fill in shows you may have missed. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/12/theater/works-by-stephen-sondheim.html
  14. That means I can't even get sloppy seconds. Can there be a sloppy thirds?
  15. WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  16. The Rick Wolfmier and Mike Betts scenes from Colt were practically perfect. rick+and+mike.jpg
  17. No, I was not annoyed. I had not seen them so you did me a favor. The front pics were not posted where the ones I saw were so I guess I will have to look. Unless you might just post them. Thanks.
