    Truck stop safety

    I think many of us have been to that Pilot. I know I have. I don't think I've ever parked there, other than maybe a quick nap. But it's a good place to fuel.

    Oh, it's absolutely being politicized. No question about it. Different doctors are going to have different opinions on most anything, as it is. Some doctors will flat out reject any anecdotal evidence as being pure horse hockey, and instead will only accept evidence from the standard triple peer...

    Whenever I buy the wipes I usually buy them in the 3-tub value pack, he then just carry them around with me. That's why when this virus thing hit, I had 2 full tubs at the ready, age didn't have to go scrounging for them. But I expect in a week or two the supply will begin to settle out. As...

    The anti Trump media is going for a big fat no. But others who aren't interested in politicizing things all seem to go with a yes.

    If you need hand sanitizer, this might not work at all Walmarts, or even any others, but it's worth a shot. I was told, whispered on the down low by a pharmacist, to check with Customer Service to see if they have any hand sanitizer. So I went over there and said, "Pharmacy told me to check...

    I go into the Pilot/FJ to get some drinks, usually 2 or 4 1-liter bottles of something (Diet Dew, Arnold Palmer Half & Half, whatever). FIrst I sanitize my hands and put on my mask. I touch the door handle to enter the store (never grabbing it in the middle like everyone else, I'll grab it with...

    Ford Transit Midroof vs Highroof

    I've owned a few boats in my day, many of them sailboats. I currently have a long and tall Sprinter. I can confidently state that in high winds there is no difference between a sailboat and a Sprinter.

    Yes. It will be contaminated with whatever cooties they exhale. And the closer they hold it, the more containimated it will become. Not only that, but every other object within about 6 feet could also be contaminated. Potentially, yes. Better to wash your hands before touching your face. That's...

    Plus, the Atlantic, if they became a little more of a Trump supporter, they'd be right there with Debra Messing and Rosie O'Donnell.

    So, your wife made you a mask you can't breathe through? Is the secret inner layer made of plastic bag? Is she trying to tell you something? :eek:

    Senator Chuck Schumer, to prove he's both better and smarter than Trump, period, wearing a mask in public like a boss.

    A better long term solution is a HEPA filter, but yes, paper towels inside a cloth mask will offer that protection. In all fairness to the bandana, it's not entirely useles. In a hospital setting where coronavirus might be prevalent, a bandana is pretty much useless. But out in the real world...

    The regular surgical masks and the homemade cloth masks, they're not going to protect the wearer from a virus. The virus can easily enter your nose or mouth through the gaps around the mask, and will pass right through the material, anyway. But they prevent the wearer from exhaling their germs...

    I have a good friend who used to work in the ER on weekends as a orderly, prepping things and even drawing blood, and my former doctor, who closed his private practice and now works an a ER doctor and at the University two days a week, is married to my step-dad's sister and lives across the...

    If you're using the mask solely to keep your germs off other people, which is pretty much what the cloth masks are for, then yes, you can put it back on.

    On gloves and masks... Wearing gloves will keep your hands clean, but don't for a minute think gloves will prevent the spread of a virus. If your gloves are contaminated with the virus, you spread the virus to everything the gloves touch. Your steering wheel, phone, face. I've seen people wear...
