Orson Wells could not have created a bigger panic than this.

The toilet paper monster ate all the supply at one Walmart and also a Publix.

I guess people assume that there will be a huge need of that during this event.

Sad. Maybe they will move it.

I predict an increase in:

movie rentals
streaming subscriptions
e-book purchases on Amazon and Google and Goodreads
visits to the public libraries, as long as they remain open

I just hope I survive my wife being stuck in house with nothing to do for weeks. She is a go, go, go baby and I am a home body. Might get a little tense. :boxing2::pray:

And a slowdown in internet speed as increased demand for bandwidth clogs up the system.
