Opus 2020-102: On the Street: Where It Is Happening

You may have noticed empty parking lots as you drive to the local drive through.  My son noticed that the parking lot at his apartment complex was also empty last Saturday.  Where are all the people?

At the hardware store.

Last week I drove up into hill country to an Ace Hardware store that swore they had what I needed.  When I got there I had a hard time finding a parking place.  This was a large hardware store in the middle of nowhere and the parking lot was full.

Tuesday I went to the local Lowe’s.  I had a hard time finding a parking place.  I would submit that although the banks may foreclose on a lot of homes after the Chinavirus panic destroys our economy, the houses will be in good repair.  I am guessing that most of the improvements are being put on the credit cards.

It is ironic that a virus that comes to us from China drives us to the big box store that sells things made in China.

Wash your hands and be alert for unicorns projecting viral rainbows.
