I think places like Starbucks or a McDonalds will close their lobbies but will remain open for drive thru. Just my guess.
I think you may be right there D.J. I was in Mac's today getting a takeaway coffee and they have a limit on seated customers, 40 or thereabouts, after that all orders are designated for takeaway. As things get worse I could see them limiting it to drive through only.

Just want to wish all a safe and good Tuesday in the middle of this crisis.

I have been off from work in two days now, ( I was working during the weekend) but go back to work tomorrow.

I have been reading a little too, but not any King book for a long time.

We are all feeling well here and try to stay as healthy as possible.

Take care and be safe!!

((all in need or not))

Just did some research, yep, it's rights are currently owned by The Kennedy/Marshall Company, which is a subsidary of Lucasfilm, a la Steven Spielberg. Yep ... this movie isn't getting made. :)
I haven't heard any updates since last year about this time when it was announced that director Mike Barker had been hired for the production.

TDT film seemed to come out of nowhere, it was in development hell for ages then suddenly it's out. Maybe this will be the same, but I don't think so. It's not really a book which lends itself to an adaption, unless you were to change it of course, but then if you change it everyone complains.

I was at the hospital today. Have to make a minor surgery. But when is written in the stars. Was there today to talk with the headnurse, the doctor, and the Narcos doctor (the one who puts you to sleep before the operation) to check if i had questions, to tell how the plan was (Getting in evening before operation, sleeping there, operation in the morning and going home the day after) and so on. They said that normally the operation would be in 1-2 weeks time but now, in these times they just didn't know. But i probably has to wait until the curve goes downwards again.

Stay well, keep up your strength. This is not the time to be in a hospital for minor surgery. (((Kurben )))

Steven Spielberg still owns the rights as far as I know.
That is exciting! I hope he figures out a way to bring that one to life in an epic, yet classy way.
I just finished The Institute and I think that would make a very good film in the right hands.

So ... just found out that Black Sabbath did a song about The Shining.
Very super cool - I had no idea and will be googling that shortly.

Best of luck to you on the surgery Kurb. My co-worker is having a kind of routine sort of surgery tomorrow - I wonder if they will cancel it before she makes it in. I wouldn't want to be in surgery center at all right now.

Hey SKMB how's it going tonight?
:)
Hey Riot! Good to see you!!! We see your cousin often over on the Weekend board.
