What's this?

Wife's listening to the Governor's press conference. I walked in at the

perfect time to hear him go "Alright, the next question is: Why is the ABC Store considered essential?" He passed it on to someone else to answer and that guy knocked it out of the park. "Well it's listed as essential under our current guidelines of essential businesses. And, with the ABC, we're able to achieve social distancing. No more than 10 people in the store at a time, which is so important for social distancing." Gotta say, I agree with that guy. I just went to two ABC Stores and the social distancing was great.

Overrated. Interesting. I do think the demand is absurd but how good it -- RhinoVT 03/27/2020 2:02PM

Sure, overrated is an extremely subjective term. I just know it flies off -- BG Hokie 03/27/2020 4:04PM

Overrated is typically synonymous with "bad." But Trace's reputation -- Tafkam Hokie 03/27/2020 4:18PM
