 That last one was a challenge.  I actually think I smile a little after I figure some of them out. 

[glenn57]

anyone hear or listen to JB's pal Walz had to say 

I was preoccupied and couldn't listen.

[Jerkbiat]

  . Seems harder to find them to listen too. I have not heard one for awhile.

[Jerkbiat]

I just went and check Kare 11 web and the headline is the idiot has extended the stay at home order until May 18th. #@$% idiot!!

I figured you'd like that one.

I heard rumors that bars and food places will be opening up with limited capacity and spacing. not sure of anything else.

yea I agree.....dimwit!!!!!!!!!!

some small businesses filed a lawsuit.....see where that goes. I seen where the Michigan govnenor won the lawsuit brought against her, so I think that's a telltale sign of other potential lawsuits.

Mama p****** that no salon stuff....  No haircuts etc.   

[mike89]

I really thought he was going to say until the 25th of May...  so it will be interesting where this goes for us...   

[glenn57]

Not a whole lot those businesses can do, but I'd bet people are going to say screw that.

I've already seen blatant disregard for the stay at home and social distancing. And I expect it to get worse. I'd bet a pile a money all these people out for walks aren't from the same household, nor are they 6 ft apart.

Bugtussle's own Farm & City Days celebration scheduled for July 10 - 12 is toast. Can't say as I've noticed a lot of blatant disregard for stay at home & social distancing around the local area. Go to Albert's Leaf, Mankato or Owatonna & the big box store parking lots are full. Aside from the local Bugtussle restaurants, most of our businesses are considered essential. Now, where do you suppose your odds of picking up the bug are greater, in a store like that or some little restaurants or stores in Bugtussle or downtown boutique in Albert's Leaf? Some of these places are lucky if they see 20 people a day. This is what's becoming particularly frustrating to those of us who don't live in a metropolitan or more densely populated area. I go to the office, do my necessary paperwork, go to the post office, occasionally to the bank or grocery store and that's about it. I may make a trip to FF over the weekend if I need a lawnmower battery but otherwise aside from going out to eat once in a great while, nothing has really changed.

One of the things that POs me the most is the whole elective surgery thing including cancer, heart surgeries or anything that is life threatening being shut down. I'm sorry but stuff like that, there is no reason that they can't be done. The hospitals are not over run and I think the hospitals have the ability to decide for themselves. The one size fits all does not work. Man this makes me  ! As Far as lawsuits go. I think the further they take up the courts, the more the constitution is on their side. Just depends on how far they are willing to push it.

[mike89]

they must be doing some surgery, the NL who has some health issues had a surgery just the other day.. not sure where at but it didn't do what it was supposed to do so more surgery in her future I guess...

Mayo is ramping up the "elective" surgery here.   I don't know how much other surgery that they were doing before.   And they are starting to see patients in person as well.   

[LPS]

I could see things opening up some more too.  Especially Campgrounds.....

[Gunner55]

GR is starting to look more normal for this time of year the last couple of times in there. Still not a lot of boats in town or on 2 & 46 yet though. The # of out of state plates is still on the low side too. A little more activity around the bay yday & I expect that to continue even more this weekend & next.

[glenn57]

hope it all works out in the end for her!!!!!

there's a lot of things with this that's beginning to  me!!!!!!! I mean how much time do they need to get the things they said they need. my daughter works at the st cloud hospital...……..she's not getting all the hours she gets scheduled for, gets floated around and empty beds.

this virus isn't going to go away. protect the vulnerable. let places open up, if customers are not comfortable going into these places there plain not going in. and requiring people to wear masks is  in my opinion, and i wore masks  for 28 years while working when i needed too.

[Gunner55]

More people in GR wearin 'em again yday than anywhere else I've seen. Not just the older ones either. Thinkin a good share of 'em must be worried about it being brought up here to them.  But yet they're not so worried that they're willin to stay home.

Just  That we are agreeing like this Glenn. But I couldn't agree more with what you said!

Look on the bright side: At least your cat or dog can now get a haircut along with still being able to vote!  And, I can still go to a big box store, try on a bunch of shoes with my stinky feet and put them back in the boxes. Yet, when it comes to allowing little Plymouth Shoe Store in Albert Lea to open back up, where they fit babies and people who need orthopedic shoes, no way Jose! No shoes for you! Come back two weeks! The mask thing is a bit of a puzzler too. Even Osterholm is lukewarm at best on wearing masks. I've seen some yarn masks people have made that wouldn't stop anything. And I have some dust masks just like what I've seen some people wearing. They didn't keep hay & grain dust out of my lungs so sincerely doubt they'll protect anyone from anything.  Gotta love MN, the state where absolutely nothing is allowed.

with my job, I've had to keep up, pay attention and follow this more then I care to, but with close to 450 members in the shops I have no choice. I found out yesterday that the sioux falls shop has its 2nd case of the covid.

I have followed and read piles on piles of information on this, and in my mind a lot of pieces are not beginning to fitting together on this.  just my opinion though. I totally understand this covid crap may spread a lot easier then some things but good gawd, like the other pandemics, this is getting overblown. again just my opinion.

EXACTLY my point, you got the big wallyworlds types that can remain open and sell shoes and clothes and other things but the small stores that have certain products cant open..... that's just plain effed up!!!!!

Costco announced that starting Monday you won’t be allowed in the store without a 😷

One of the lead stories on the CBS Evening News tonight said that the U of M has just come out & said the current virus situation could last 2 more years or until 60-70%  of the country has immunity to it. I sure hope they don't know what they're talking about.
