I'm afraid I'll end like Burgess Meredith's character in the Twilight Zone episode 'All the Time in the World'

I think that the correct name of the episode is "Time enough at Last". That episode teaches us to always have a spare pair of glasses around Geeked

 

 

Hmm, and so it is. Not sure why I was thinking the former title. Oh well the photo did come up when I typed that in. Thanks for the correction! 

And yes, I have about two-three pairs of glasses around the house and one in the car...

Do people really not realize that a washcloth and warm soapy water works just fine?

At what stage does TP become actual currency?

 

I bought a six pack. It was the good stuff, "Charmin Ultra Soft". I can't wait to give it a try!!

When the scalpers try to sell them on the black market.

Good grief, and here I thought only Hawaii would experience a relapse of the Great Hawaii Toilet Paper Shortage of 1974. That one was prompted by a Matson shipping strike.

 

I best check my supply of TP. I might be a rich man and don't know it. :)

Everybody stay calm and plan sensibly.  SnapdragonXXX, make sure you have enough ammo.  Those TP-craving hordes can be persistent.  Remember - lead your targets, controlled bursts.

Seriously though, I thought the crisis would be tapering off by now.  But it seems every day brings more ominous news.  Kinda makes me feel like this:

 

That is Great!

Stik,

Oh that’s right, Cornholio craves teepee above all else!  Hide the rolls.  And don’t let the kids sell your stash on eBay!

The Foxhole has been dug and sandbagged and my old tin hat pulled out of storage so I can mount one of the large MG's that has been stored just incase some moron decides they want my toilet paper.

That may be the funniest line of the week. Excellent!!! YesYesYes

   Cool stash!! I hope someone here in the colonies makes a command desicion. My boss says if your sick stay home but they need mechanics, doctors offices and urgent cares are turning people away if the symptoms of WHATEVER you feel are mild. My VA triagued my case today and because my symptoms are mild I can't go to the doctor but they can't tell me how long I should stay home. I work for an international company with offices in Japan...a hot spot,....Seattle Wa.  Another hotspot , and with engineers from all over the world how can I say if I've been exposed.

      55 and independent wealth can't come soon enough.

       My apologies for the "rant" Snapdragonxxx, not trying to hi jack your thread. On the good side if I was able to travel to your country, I would know to call first....lead poisoning is the LAST thing I need. LOL.

we're modelers it's what we do
