Useless Facts or Things You Can Do, Prove or Ponder While You Quarantine Yourself: Our belly buttons are crawling with bacteria. The average person has 67 species swarming around in there; There were 43,687 toilet related accidents in the United States in 1996. I don't remember that question on the census.; Most lipstick contains fish scales...and you thought "It's like kissing your sister" was an insult; The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body.

For one I'm not making a big deal out of the "paranoia virus" like 95% of the people are. I wouldn't have hoarded toilet paper for any reason, any time. Ever. If I was told I HAD to stay home for that period of time I'd watch a lot of TV.
How come I (I'd say "we" but that would be presumptuous ) never heard of Corvid 1 through 18? May have but wouldn't have cared any more about them than I do this one. Just use common sense. Stay home if you feel sick. I haven't changed my routine a single bit and don't plan on starting. I'm not paranoid enough to mention this stuff every other breath.
I never heard of it until yesterday. Without looking it up, are you familiar with the word telemedicine? Yes, I've heard of that.

Was it hard to make new friends in the neighborhood? I suppose it must have been, but I was an introverted bookworm type so I didn't make friends easily under the best of circumstances.
Did you move before the school term started or during it? Most of the time it was during a school year.
Who doesn’t love squirrels? No really, who doesn’t love squirrels and why? They are rodents. Not a fan.
Do you think squirrels are dumb or just indecisive when crossing the street? You'd have to ask a squirrel. I have no idea what goes through their pea brains.

Do you have unused AA batteries at home? Yes, I keep a small supply on hand.
Do you buy them by the carton (example: 4 in a box, 12 boxes in a carton for a total of 48 batteries) or do you buy them by the card as you need them? I have reusable batteries, and I buy them 4 at a time.
Which female singer, dead or alive, do you think has the best voice? Ella Fitzgerald
Of her music, what is your favorite song? Feel free to include a video. I like all the "Songbook" albums she did.
Do you ever check any of the following online? If yes, why do you do it?

b) Time of high or low tide
c) Wind speed

I have lots of books to read and music to listen to. I also watch TV, surf the net, play games online, cook, clean house and spend way too much time on C-D.
How come I (I'd say "we" but that would be presumptuous ) never heard of Corvid 1 through 18? Maybe there weren't any. The "19" might stand for something else.
I never heard of it until yesterday. Without looking it up, are you familiar with the word telemedicine? No I have enough problems with finding the band aids in the medicine cabinet....
When you were a kid (Kindergarten - Grade 12 age range), did your family ever move? After Kindergarten and before 1st grade.
Do you remember how you felt about it when you were first told you were moving? No big deal...
Were you moving to a neighborhood that was already established or were you moving to a new development? Well established and close enough to my new school I could walk. About a mile.
Was it hard to make new friends in the neighborhood? Not at all.
Did you move before the school term started or during it? Before.
Who doesn’t love squirrels? No really, who doesn’t love squirrels and why? I all 'em fuzzy tailed rats. It's a regular game we play daily as I chase them off the deck for stealing sunflower seed that belong to the songbirds...

Quarantine is fine. I stay that way quite a bit anyway... Sad to say as we were leaving an event today as we came out the store door the business closed down during their grand opening.
How come I (I'd say "we" but that would be presumptuous ) never heard of Corvid 1 through 18?
