Got a call from Carlos Guido last night. He's pretty freaked about the virus. Says he went to the store to pickup some toilet paper for his mom and got mugged with 25-pound purses by four 75 to 80-year-old women, went to the ER for stitches and got turned away because he didn't have the virus.
He has resigned himself to work from home. As a major bookmaker, as long as he has his cell phone and ledger, he can telework. His collection men are a bit worried about contact with welchers who renege on their lost bets. Carlos does not want his men to shoot the ones who owe him money, just rough them up a bit. But his collectors don't want to have physical contact with anyone. He said this is a crisis, but is thinking about using tasers to collect.
He was also worried about getting the virus on Saints Report. I assured him that SR was 100% safe and the Coronovirus can't spread via the Internet. I don't think he believes me, but I assured him.
I asked him if he had any new info on the Saints. Carlos got really POed at me and began a rant, "My whole business has collapsed. In case you are not reading the news, all professional college and pro sports have been canceled. No sports means no betting. No betting means I don't make any money you dumb Irish Cajun!." Carlos said, "His people were thinking about reinstituting rooster fights and armadillo races on TV to stimulate betting. He asked me what I thought about the idea and of course, I said, "Brilliant!" I didn't want to get tasered.
Carlos says he and Dave the Lawn Guy were planning a vacation together on a cruise to the Caribbean, but the cruise got canceled. I asked him if his organization ever thought about a hit on Goodell. He screamed out, "Hell no. We make a fortune out of that idiot!" When I pressed him further on Saints insider info he sarcastically came back and said, "Sure. For certain, the Saints will draft some players this year." Carlos can be a major smart-arse.
He buzzed me again about catching the virus on SR and I assured him that was the safest place for him and all Who Dats to spend their time during self-quarantine. I don't want to get tasered!

In all seriousness.... I think laughter is crucial throughout these uncertain times. We have no reported cases of the virus in Central TX, none in Austin, none in New Braunfels and 1 in San Antonio. We saw 30 plus in Orleans Parish yesterday. If any Who Dats get in serious need of items you cannot find in your stores, let us know on this thread and we will do our best to get them and then get them to you all. This crisis will be much easier to handle if we do this as a community. Btw: If you have any jokes that will make us laugh, this is the forum for that. Btw: We don't have any paper products here. 4 women were on the floor fighting and pushing each other over the last 2 boxes of Kleenex on the bottom shelf. It looked like WWE for a few seconds- lol
