For the most part, quarantine means sitting at home, wondering if my wife and I will test positive, too. It means getting up each morning and hoping you have no symptoms, getting dressed with nowhere to go — not work, not morning service at the synagogue, which is closed, too, not even shopping for groceries.

It means my wife, a therapist, cannot see her patients in her office, cannot volunteer at the Northern Westchester Medical Center, or go to her yoga. And it means my daily swim at the YMCA has been replaced by walking in endless circles around my house.


And of course, each day means praying for the recovery of our sick friends.

Quarantine is at once both boring and utterly nerve-racking. We read about contradictory messages coming from the White House and knowing these are the people on whom we are dependent for help does not inspire confidence.


Nightmare?!!?!?

Nerve wracking?!!!?

You boomer jackass, come into modern times. Pacing back and forth? You ever hear of an exercise bike or a treadmill? Boring? There’s multiple tv series and movies I’ve never seen. Netflix rocks. How about coming out of the Stone Age and learning to play some video games. There’s rpg’s that will take a week or two to finish and are totally immersive and engaging. Or you can surf the Internet and learn new things.

Or you could reconnect with your wife. Though probably not if your a nervous nelly asshole who frets about things you can’t control.

Forgive me for not having sympathy that your locked down for a couple weeks in your home and can’t figure out what to do with yourself. Nightmare lol.

The perfect picture of privileged people with zero imagination or ability to think outside their fleeting whimsy.

If one has a negative test does that mean they can leave the house & not catch CV?
How many times can one fall ill?

Start now & learn to grow food in small spaces.One might learn to appreciate nature & the moment without the need to be childishly,electronically entertained. Go thru all the junk that one has had for years & in reality never needed. Organize the left over crap & sell, give away/donate the crap one doesn't need. When they finish that,"white glove" clean that pig sty. One could go thru unneeded paperwork. Detail the vehicles.
To hell with that, that sounds like it would take physical effort.
Forget it,just sit on those asses & bitch & moan.

There are things that GenX & Milleys will never know/be able to do,it might involve work that doesn't include hitting keys.


So while the a-holes are clearing off the medicine and anti bacterial wipes at Walmart and Target, yourre cleaning out the liquor cabinet?

Maybe it's about being surrounded with flame throwers and itchy trigger fingers that bothers them.

Soon there will be no room for the escorts who must be quarantined. Who pays, in this case?

e're considering a COVID-19 watch tower to give us sighting range and qualifying for sniper certification to give us greater reach.


How will you handle the COVID0-19 mists and aerosols, wafting over the fields of dead towards your position, heated by the gunfire? Are there gas masks for this? How do you defend the perimeter from the viral death clouds?

You could widen the trenches and equip them with gasoline nozzles and igniters.

When the trenches are full of diseased invaders, you ignite them and have a good chuckle.

Not only does this save a lot of ammo, it helps with sterilization and body disposal. Win-win-win!

Impressive self-control.

And yet!

There are real health benefits to small amounts of alcohol.

Being stuck in a house with family could be worse than sickness & death.

Love my family, but this is a valid statement. lol. 14 days straight with no outside interaction would be a rough go of it.
