Well, the paranoia is reaching the desert!
Wife said she heard about the "pandemic" announcement, and one of her co-workers said the local Cosco was out of toilet paper. She phoned and asked me should she stop on the way home and get some, because we were going to be needing some. (Not hoarding, just it's that time of the month to buy a 12 pack). I told her don't worry - I'll head overt o Walmart and grab some with a few other items we're low on. Pretty sad to report the toilet paper aisle was decimated! Found one 12 pack of some brand I never buy so I grabbed it. People were reaching behind me to grab for a few remaining packs.
Come on folks, hoarding is going to produce problems not solve them! But most people are sheep and just do what the one in front of them is doing.
Worse comes to worst I'll just go to "bun rags". Old dish rags or facial towels get turned into cleaning duties and get tossed in the washer regularly. (I don't suppose they'll be a run on small towels at the thrift stores). I ain't much into the "leaves" thing - especially when the leaves around here are cactus!
