Pretend you're hitting the hot buffet table at the Killarney Rose and have three or four of each. If necessary, go through the line a couple times. 3 minutes ago, STYRENE-SURFER said: Not this one?

Motor City Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 As some of you know, China doesn't want it referred to by that name since it possibly originated there. Anyway, I wonder how this will affect model car shows over the next few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I've already heard of several shows being canceled already: Spring Thaw 7 in Utica, NY and Valleycon 30 in Chicopee, MA. Both were originally scheduled for March 29th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ambrose Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Folks, please keep the politics out of this discussion. I had to prune it a bit. The salient points have been touched upon. My wife was at the grocery store today. It took an hour to get checked out. The store manager was directing traffic, and people were bagging their own groceries. Everyone was nice to one another. Maybe it's because we all live around here, and have at least seen each other before, but clearly not everyone is overreacting. On a more model related front, we cancelled our meeting for Tuesday. I will miss seeing my friends, but we are sadly in the high risk group. We need to be extra cautious. We're also likely to see the same thing with car shows. Be safe, be sensible, and listen to the scientist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way panic has set in, that might be the only choice , my wife and I ( both under 50) are more concerned with are we going to be able to buy food to feed our family then catching the virus, soooo many selfish people are hoarding everything.

slusher Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Went to the doctor for my shot and her advice was for me with MS not to go anywhere unless I have to. If it gets really bad she will give me my shot in my car. I.get a T shot every 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STYRENE-SURFER Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 In my geographical situation (Boise ID) I feel fairly safe. Only one reported case of the virus. but if necessary have a getaway available up north. could stand to spend some time up there anyway. unfortunately no way to work on models at the cabin.

Joe Handley Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Schools here are now closed for the next couple weeks as is the library my Sister and her Husband work for. Just not sure how my employer is going to handle things yet, but we got a “work at home” questioner through the company email though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisBcritter Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Any update on NNL Milwaukee? Seems to still be on, but... My car club back in CA has canceled events as well; the membership skews older so they're being careful of course. The LMMCC banquet on the 21st is still on as far as I know - will post a heads-up if that changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrObsessive Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 BTW, I just found out that ALL schools are closed here in PA for the next two weeks. I know on my job the machine I run is effectively shut down, as the material it uses comes from China and we can't get it due to the factory over there running at only 50% of the employees working. This is getting VERY interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnslow Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Everything in my area has shut down , went out to eat with friends last night to a place usually crowded on Friday night , there were 4 tables out of 50 occupied . Looks like we're all going to have more time to model . (silver lining alert) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
