Man, I thought it was getting crazy with all the ESPN breaking news headlines. Now this...

Also, I don't want to be defeatist, but Tom Hanks is 63.

Do you think he's gonna die?

In times like these when you wonder why they don't take more aggressive action, it's always because someone is gonna lose money.

It is the right thing to do, now.

I hope not. He's in a risky age bracket. But Tom Hanks was just getting into his "play the older guy role" movie phase of his career, he could be acting for decades more. I honestly couldn't imagine.

He has access to good care and caught it early (it seems?), but that virus has stricken down perfectly healthy 30 year old doctors.

Chaotic · 03-12-2020, 02:21 AM

He has diabetes too, which makes it worse.

All of these random companies are out here talking about doing two week quarantines on their own, and like, that isn’t gonna work unless the entire country is on board..

I started working from home today and so have all of my colleagues.

I encourage you all to do the same. The more people that stay at home, the better chances we have of containing this virus.

Aint that the truth, frightening times. Seeing the nba shut down is some biblical shit.

That's a great plan and all but what if that's not an option?

Hmmm
(A) watch Blu-ray’s or
(B) work

Yeah I’m not good at working at home

surfdude12 · 03-12-2020, 02:56 AM

Just saw report and they said Hanks sounded unbeat so I’m confident he’s fine.

Dubstar · 03-12-2020, 02:57 AM

this could signal the closing of all Broadway theaters:

I swear if Tom Hanks is taken from us....

Hope he and his wife pull through quickly.

AeroK · 03-12-2020, 03:05 AM

I went out this evening and people are running around like it’s Black Friday. I went ahead and filled up my car. I think I’m good on non perishables for the next few weeks but I might go in the morning to pick up some a few other things. Times like this I wish I was back in my rural hometown and not a huge city.
