The Cuckoos EggBoard

OOC:
My western MO large metropolis area is still dealing with fear-based hoarders at the grocery stores. No flour, no bread, no bath tissue to be found if you get to a store later than half an hour after opening. Most grocery stores in my area have removed the aisle marker signs for flour and paper products.

Mrs TAO works in a seniors retirement complex and still is required to go to work. For me, all schools are closed and the current return for me is Apr 6 (subject to change). Honestly, I am struggling with a lack of routine -- especially while the weather is unpleasant and uncooperative (much cooler and wetter than normal) -- but it is still March and I have been home only this week.

Praying that each of you are safe and well.

OOC.

We have fear based hoarders here also, grocery stores have put up signs saying two loaves of bread per person only. Also numerous other items are listed the same way. Supposedly next week all purchases will be debit or visa.
All schools, libraries, bars, closed. Banks reduced staff & hours. Telling people to stay home. New restrictions daily.

Living in a small town & avoiding contact with anyone, i am still able to get my daily walk in safely. Just like Tao wish the weather was better so i could cross outside items off my honey due list.

Hope all are safe and healthy.

OOC UPDATE

My school is now closed until April 24. My county government is requesting(?) that everyone self-quarantine for 30 days and the school followed their lead. So ... it looks like more computer time for me. And once the weather subsides and it again becomes pleasant outside, I have some things that need doing.

*1 day 12 hours ago: Mashed potato mountain ceased to exist. *

With all production plants working with only Skeleton crews (thanks to our friends at The Skeleton Army), A Scoop of Deese Mashed Potato Mountain Garlic Dill Gherkins will be available at the beginning of April. A number of the production crew insist that these would go quite well with Bread and Butter Pickles, Beerquilla, and Sticky Ribs with Rum Sauce.

Hello Oliverandria ... it is always a wonder to see a WA nation in the region. What brings you to The Egg?

While the nation of Oliverandria thanks you for your warm welcome, it is against our country’s policy to make responses to foreign leaders without a vote from the nation. Unfortunately, the High Council of Tiktok will be unable to respond to your inquiry as to why we have arrived due to an overwhelming majority of voters who do not believe we should give reason for our arrival.

Not a problem ... social distancing is not a bad thing these days. But it will keep you from receiving any Rum reserves through the crisis.

*calls the KEGG autoplay queue number and requests Eric Carmen's "All By Myself"*

Kudos to Krazie Karl for the tech upgrade. And for the 30 foot ladder allowing access to the studio.

*Calls into KEGG to request Muse- Time is Running Out.

Social distancing is my daily specialty but things of late are more extreme than even I prefer. Thank god Chipotle delivers.

Another new nation --- Allenstan. What brings you to the Egg?

Revived after over 4 years, was browsing regions. This one seemed like a good one.

OOC:
Ohio is faring well, all considered. We have been in self quarantine since the 19th. I thought I was an introvert. This working and staying home alone (I live alone) is more introversion than I like.

Providence arrived in the mail yesterday, so I have that to read now!

Stay well!

Shakes head. Went out grocery shopping today. Even though many senior wore gloves and masks, a few did not practice Social distancing. I got bruises on my ankles from shopping cart to prove it.

Stay safe.

(maybe i should borrow that 30 ladder to mark my social distancing area)

I would be #1 but for the ratbasdarts who raided the region that one time and booted me. A marsupial pox on their nations!!!

I remember that day. I got a tg (from one of those ratbastards) asking how i liked being the WA, replacing you.
To be quite frank, i was not impressed.

OOC:

For those who celebrate it best wishes for a safe and happy Easter! For all others best wishes for a safe and happy Sunday! :)

I see that my joke on Tao backfired.
So i will leave the region, making him the longest resident here.

Caio.

Stay safe everyone.

Karl ... Don't be gone too long. The KEGG DJ contract requires you to be here daily to turn on the automatic functions for the fully robotic radio station -- except for the 7.2 hours of PTO you earn every year. After about 10 years, that means you have about 72 hours total PTO.

The Weekend. Finally.

OK, Karl is gone and the KEGG station is fully automated. All that seems so wrong.
