I just saw that a few minutes ago. I sent them a message asking about if there was a way to change the prices to dollars instead of euros and also asked about it showing the thunder chew bags as available when I was told by snuscentral that they couldn't be sold to US residents.
I did a STUPID today. I opened a can of corned beef, I was going to do some corned beef and cabbage for lunch, and when trying to get it out of the can, cut pinky on the lid, BAD, took 4 stitches to sew up my pinky. Not going to post a picture, it don't look pretty, but not a good day for me. Been a suck A.. Saturday... 
That does suck Bernie. I poked my finger on a finish nail a few weeks ago and my hand and finger swelled up. I had to go get a tetanus shot and antibiotics. That’ll teach my wife to not make me pulll trim off so she can paint it. Not!
Oh Burnie, glad you didn't show it. I've managed to avoid slicing myself since I was a teenager. I used to be able to see the scar but I just looked and can't see it anymore or even remember what finger it was but it was ugly at the time. Of course no stitches, didn't even know what they were at the time. Just wrapped it tight and it eventually healed up.
The scar I still can see is the one I got at my old girlfriend's father's farm. I was sitting on the porch painting one of the windows and the cats started messing around on the paint can. I went to shush them away, the window slipped from what I had it rested on and I broke a glass pane on my knee. I big sliver ended up in my leg. Didn't stitch that one either.
Anyway, I don't get why sometimes I get notification in gmail about posts here and sometimes not. Oh, I also have a sticky "e" on my laptop. Sometimes it doeesn't register and sometimes it does what it just did, double up.

The only time I've gotten stitches not related to a surgery was when I was a wee lad. My mom used to use half of a broken set of garden shears, the big foot long scissors for trimming hedges, as seed planters. Push the blade in a few inches, rock it, drop a seed in, push soil down to cover.
I was maybe 4 or 5, so the memory is hazy, but I was helping plant corn in the garden. I must have hit a rock, so I lifted the shear up and went to plunge down. I ended up hitting the tendon rich area right above my left kneecap. Judging by the scar, it must have went in an inch or so. It's a wonder I didn't screw up the tendons in there.

Waho, that story gave me the heebeegeebees (best I could do on spelling).
I just don't understand the rush on buying toilet paper. Been reading it in the paper and just thought it was crazy. Went to Walmart this morning, here is the toilet paper isle. 
My co-workers were talking about hitting the stores between 3-5am looking for toilet paper before the daytime rush.
Our local grocery store put a 2 package limit on things like toilet paper, cleaning wipes, and hand sanitizer. Even then, the cops were called yesterday to break up an altercation over said items between customers.
Insanity.

The only thing I've gotten unnecessarily is gas. It's under $2/gal in MI and I've heard several stories of people driving 1.5+ hours away looking for toilet paper and I'm figuring they'll gouge at the pump shortly.
I really don't understand it. We're actually low on toilet paper and I'm just hoping the idiots are stocked up and we can get some in the next week.
My mom went to the local Walmart today for a normal shopping trip and of course, no paper products. She said she was mildly concerned that staple stuff would be gone, but to her surprise the stuff that was sold out was along the lines of chicken nuggets/frozen pizzas/TV dinners. She had no trouble buying meat/bread/eggs/produce etc, stuff you actually have to prepare.

I would forget about getting any at big box stores for a while. Our local grocery store has some and is limiting sales to two packs but that won’t keep the crazies from going back multiple times.
Countertops installed Thursday, sink/faucet/dishwasher installed Friday. I'll get a better photo of them eventually, but all of our dishes got covered in dust despite being boxed and behind a door and we're giving our dishwasher the workout of its career.
March Madness is still on if you want to watch it at Walmart.
I bought three rolls over a month ago so I figure I'm good for months. I better be, they're sold out.
Charmin Forever Roll
I did contact my lawyer to update my will. Might as well be prepared for the upcoming doom.
I'm vaping a lot more these days hoping the PG helps keep the germs away. We did have poker both Sat and Sun. I was considering suspending it but since my 91 year old player with stage 4 lung cancer wanted to play, there was no way I could cancel it.
He had the most outstanding ten week session I'd ever seen. I developed a scoring system to determine who would make the final table after ten weeks. He was the top point total, had the most knock outs of other players and broke the record for average. I don't expect anyone will ever touch that mark. In the big final tournament, He ended up heads for the title, was just destroying his opponent and then the cards changed and he finished second. In over eight years, he hasn't managed to win the final finishing second twice- one to me and on Sunday.
It was announced that PA closed all bars and restaurants for the next two weeks and I'm guessing that will be extended as this thing gets worse. What a mess.

We went grocery shopping today, and between the two local grocery stores we got everything we needed except toilet paper. Hopefully we'll score a pack in the next week.
Work relented into giving us the first 6 minutes of the shift to take provided cleaning wipes and clean the workstations and tools. Then before 3rd shift fired up tonight they had a meeting saying they could punch out 24 minutes early (with pay) to minimize contact between shifts.
Not sure how much it will really help, there's about 6k hourly/salary/support personnel between 3 shifts. With our families and everyone else we all contact, I'm assuming we'll all end up getting it at some point. They'll still try to run of course, we'll see if that works out.

Not much to add over here in West Michigan. Same stupidity going on, toilet paper is flying off the shelves at a record pace. Not sure what people will do with it, maybe eat it if things get bad, but I read an interesting article that once one of the cattle runs the rest will follow even as far as jumping off a cliff. Our local Meijer was just putting pallets of toilet paper in the isles and cutting the tops off the boxes so people could grab packs. They didn't even bother stocking the shelves. Thinking I might take advantage of our companies new policy of staying home and quarantining yourself if you feel ill. I feel fine but I can fake it if needed for a couple weeks off. 
I saw on the news last night that Kansas is closing schools for a week to make a plan as to what to do. My youngest is home from college for a month as it stands now. The grocery store nearest our house had TP Saturday but was limiting it to two per customer. We didn't need any so I didn't buy any. I just feel like this whole thing is getting out of hand. I saw this morning that the guy that was hoarding hand sanitizer to sell on amazon got in trouble and is now donating it.
I saw that too Hitt. Idiots trying to profit when people really need stuff. They closed schools in Michigan for three weeks beginning today and they just announced that all restaurants and bars to do take out only. No going in to eat or drink until further notice. Getting pretty serious out there...
