re: #98 O say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave..

I didn’t start worrying about the shortage for another 10 days. The day I left the office for the last time - and I still have not returned - I stopped at the grocery store in that town, and they had some. I remember feeling a little bit foolish, with one 6-pack of toilet paper in hand, walking by people with cartfuls of the stuff. I refused then, and still refuse now, to succumb to hyper-sensationalism. I planned prudently (Amazon FTW) and bought only what I needed.

Meanwhile folks at the Costco filled up 2-3 carts full of toilet paper, paper towels and disinfectant wipes…
