    Georgia Waffle House Re-Opening Doors To Dine-In Customers

    A number of Waffle Houses in Atlanta and throughout Georgia are re-opening in line with Gov. Brian Kemp’s plan for the state’s economy to get revived.

    Speaking to WSB-TV, Waffle House CEO Walt Ehmer said that all restaurant employeees will wear masks as they serve dine-in customers.  They will also practice social distancing and other health safeguards due to COVID-19.

    Despite Pandemic, Georgia Waffle Houses Re-Opening To Diners

    Although there are many critics of restaurants opening up, Ehmer said he will honor any employee who doesn’t want to come back to work — at the same time, he knows employees are hurting economically.

    “I think it might make the difference between having a job and not having a job, and I know the unemployment system has been enhanced to help take care of the most vulnerable people, but people want to have jobs, and they want to have something to do and take care of their families,” Ehmer told the TV station. ” I think it’s going to give them some hope.”

    Waffle House closed 419 of its restaurants across the nation as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

    Many restaurants, including Waffle House, have had to go to takeout orders only as the virus continues to spread across the nation.

    One of the biggest critics of re-opening has been Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, who has said repeatedly that the state — and Atlanta — is not ready, based on the increasing death counts.

    Atlanta Mayor’s Message: Stay Home Save Lives

    Lance Bottoms is firm in telling Atlantans not to go out, despite the fact that Kemp’s executive order trumps her local laws.

    She added: “It’s a very confusing time for people, but the one thing where the messaging has been very clear, is to stay home to save lives.”

    Thanks so much Mayor @KeishaBottoms for shining a light on the work we are doing at @TheGoodrCo during the #SOULSaturday rally! This has done two things: made me incredibly humble to lead my team doing this work + made my grandma believe I will be her quote “Secretary of Food.”❤️ pic.twitter.com/8pW2PM2xdb

    Georgia Re-Opening In COVID-19 Pandemic: Everything You Want To Know

    Tee Johnson craigsotherlistyahoo-com April 26, 2020
    4 Min Read

    Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp says he’s heard the criticism from Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms about re-opening the state, but he’s confident even as deaths continue to rise due to the coronavirus pandemic.

    “She’s working very hard like all elected officials are to protect their populations,” he said of Lance Bottoms. He added later, that he understands “where folks like the mayor and others may agree or disagree.”

    Georgia Re-Opening: Everything You Want To Know

    Georgia is one of many states that has committed to re-opening its businesses to revive its economy amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Here is everything you need to know about that.

    Are Georgia Deaths Still Increasing?

    Georgia’s deaths attributed to coronavirus continue to increase. The Georgia Department of Health has the official tally of deaths for the state. The New York Times has a Georgia death counter that shows the daily toll.

    Even though deaths are still on the rise, Kemp believes that the state saw its peak in early April, according to the models he saw.

    Why Is Georgia Re-Opening First?

    Kemp told Fox News that by re-opening Georgia’s hair salons and bowling alleys, he is taking a calculated risk that he feels the state can handle. “This is a measured approach with a lot of different requirements and guidance that we’re going to be putting out,” he says.

    He added: “I’m very confident of that step. It was done in conjunction with public health officials based on the data that we’re seeing in our state and the gateways to the phase 1 part of the president’s plan.” 

    Does The President Agree With Georgia Re-Opening?

    Speaking of the president, In a White House briefing, President Trump reiterated that he disagreed with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s plan to re-open the state.

    More specifically, Trump isn’t opposed to Georgia re-opening, but the fact that it’s so soon.

    “I went to [Dr.] Deborah [Birx[ and Dr. Fauci and other people and they weren’t thrilled about it,” Trump said about Kemp’s plan to re-opne. “And I told him very distinctly, ‘You do what you think is best,’” Trump said, “But if you ask me if I’m happy about it, I’m not happy about it and I’m not happy about Brian Kemp.”

    Earlier, it was reported that Trump talked to Kemp ahead of time and expressed approval of his plan to re-open Georgia. After health officials pushed back, Trump changed his tune, slamming Kemp in the White House news conference.

    What Are Critics Opposed To The Re-Opening Doing?

    Some restaurants have refused to re-open, citing that not enough time has passed. And some people have began protesting on city streets.

    Despite the flip, Kemp says he’s more worried about his state’s businesses than any flak from others.

    “I got some people protesting because I took this step, and I got others protesting me because they think I didn’t go far enough.”

    See Kemp’s interview with Fox News here:

    Meanwhile, Lance Bottoms is firm in telling Atlantans not to go out, despite the fact that Kemp’s executive order trumps her local laws.

    How Does The Atlanta Mayor Feel About Georgia Re-Opening?

    “We are not on the other side of this,” Lance Bottoms told CNN. “We will never get to the light until we do what we’ve done thus far, which is to continue to socially isolate from one another.”

    She added: “It’s a very confusing time for people, but the one thing where the messaging has been very clear, is to stay home to save lives.”

    "Words matter….My concern when I hear the president tout injections and ingestion of household products, children are listening & I hope that he will allow the professionals, scientists and public health experts to speak on this."

    Atlanta Mayor Reveals Racist Text Message Sent To Her Over Lockdown

    Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms has been an outspoken critic of Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s plan to re-open many businesses around the state on Friday April 24. Now, she’s being attacked for it.

    The mayor revealed that she was called a racial epithet from an anonymous source that has her phone number. Lance Bottoms recently showed a picture of a text message she received, which says: “Nigger, Just shut up and RE-OPEN ATLANTA!”

    Atlanta Mayor Receives Threatening Message About Re-Opening Amid COVID-19 Pandemic

    The message was sent from an address that reads: “ReOpen@Georgia.gov.”

    With my daughter looking over my shoulder, I received this message on my phone. I pray for you.
    “Conscientious stupidity or sincere ignorance.”

    — Keisha Lance Bottoms (@KeishaBottoms) April 23, 2020

     

    What made matters worse is that Lance Bottoms said she was not alone when she received the text message.

    “With my daughter looking over my shoulder, I received this message on my phone. I pray for you,” she posted on social media.

    She also shared this quote attributed to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.”: ““Conscientious stupidity or sincere ignorance.”

    Lance Bottoms says while she and the governor have a great working relationship, she was not consulted on his plan to re-open part of the state’s economy while the coronavirus pandemic continues to take lives.

    The mayor has created an advisory panel to help her decipher when to re-open Atlanta, although state law issued by Kemp supersedes anything she can enact. But that fact isn’t going to stop her.

    “Reopening the city must be executed in a cautious manner that is best suited for Atlanta,” said Mayor Bottoms in a written statement. “The Advisory Council will provide the necessary input and buy-in from Atlanta stakeholders to outline a safe and thoughtful framework to get our economy back on track without endangering public health.”

    In a White House briefing, President Trump reiterated that he disagreed with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s plan to re-open the state on Friday, April 24.

    “I went to [Dr.] Deborah [Birx[ and Dr. Fauci and other people and they weren’t thrilled about it,” Trump said about Kemp’s plan to re-opne. “And I told him very distinctly, ‘You do what you think is best,'” Trump said, “But if you ask me if I’m happy about it, I’m not happy about it and I’m not happy about Brian Kemp.”

    The new comments came one day after Trump strongly said that he is not in favor of Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s plan to re-open the state on Friday, April 24.

    Trump said that, “I didn’t like to see spas opening … and I could have done something about it if I wanted to, but I said, ‘Let the governors handle it.”

    “I want the people to be safe. I want t he people of Georgia to be safe,” Trump said.

    Reports on social media said that Trump called Kemp the day before and expressed support for the re-opening date, but that’s not how it played on camera.

    Trump says he’s “not happy with Brian Kemp.”

    Kemp, who is a Republican like Trump, has shunned criticism of his plan to open tattoo parlors, salons and bowling alleys. But this is the first time that Trump has publicly criticized a GOP governor during the coronavirus pandemic.

    Trump Says He’s Not In Favor Of Georgia Re-Opening April 24

    Trump told reporters that it was “too soon” for Georgia to open up the businesses that Kemp has chosen to lead the re-opening.

    “I disagree … strongly,” Trump said, “with his decision to open certain facilities, which are in violation of the Phase 1 guidelines.”

    His comments came the same day as new projections indicated that Georgia wouldn’t be ready to re-open until at least June 5.

    Still, Trump showed limited support for Kemp’s rationale for re-opening Georgia, but added a caveat.

    “But at the same time, he must do what he thinks is right,” Trump said, adding that he will step in if he thinks it’s something that is “egregious.”

    Georgia is one of several states hit hardest with COVID-19 cases in the pandemic.

    Kemp moved to re-open the state despite Georgia having nearly 19,000 coronavirus cases. Meanwhile, deaths attributed to Covid-19 surpassed 700+ deaths statewide, according to health officials.

    Meanwhile, Georgia mayors, including Atlanta’s Keisha Lance Bottoms, say the state’s local level is not ready to re-open due to the health concerns involved.

    “For as much as all of us would like to get back to some semblance of normalcy, we can’t do it now. We don’t know what our rates are in Georgia,” she told MSNBC.

    Speaking to CNN, Lance Bottoms said “We really are at a loss, and I am concerned as a mother and as the mayor of our capital city.”

    Georgia Governor Set To Re-Open Businesses, Churches On This Date

    Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp is allowing gyms, barbers, cosmetologists, and other similar businesses statewide to reopen on Friday, April 24, 2020. Even President Trump, a fellow Republican, is opposed to the date.

    Watch Kemp defend himself against criticism here.

    Georgia has been under a state of emergency since early April, when local governments issued lockdowns to help mitigate  the coronavirus pandemic.

    Georgia Governor To Re-Open Businesses, Houses Of Worship

    Kemp moved to re-open the state despite Georgia having nearly 19,000 coronavirus cases. Meanwhile, deaths attributed to Covid-19 surpassed 700+ deaths statewide, according to health officials.

    Although Kemp is rolling out the orders to revive the state economy, he told reporters at a news conference it will not be “business as usual.”

    “Last week, the White House issued guidelines for states to begin to safely reopen our nation’s econom,” he said. “We appreciate their leadership and share in the president’s desire to reopen the economy and get Americans back to work.”

    Kemp said a key component of the gating criteria is testing. “For weeks, I have expressed my frustration with the status of testing and committed more resources to expansion. We partnered with the University System of Georgia, partnered with the private sector to offer drive-thru services, and recently empowered public health departments across Georgia to offer testing for all symptomatic individuals. Today we’re taking this effort to the next level by announcing an even broader partnership with the state’s dedicated health sciences university and its health system to double down on our testing capacity and meet the requirements necessary to move forward with the president’s plan.”

    “The next point is an important one. The entities that I am reopening are not reopening for ‘business as usual.’ Each of these entities will be subject to specific restrictions, including adherence to Minimum Basic Operations, social distancing, and regular sanitation. Minimum Basic Operations includes, but is not limited to, screening workers for fever and respiratory illness, enhancing workplace sanitation, wearing masks and gloves if appropriate, separating workspaces by at least six feet, teleworking where at all possible, and implementing staggered shifts.”

    Businesses, including houses of worship, are still required to adhere to social distancing, staggered shifts and strict sanitizing, he said.

    When Is Georgia Re-Opening Restaurants And Theaters?

    Kemp is reopening restaurants and theaters on Monday, April 27. Bars, performance venues, and clubs will remain closed.

    “We will release more information in the next few days. Bars, nightclubs, operators of amusement park rides, and live performance venues will remain closed,” he said.

    Kemp said the shelter in place order is still active and will expire at 11:59 PM on April 30 for most Georgians.

    Medically fragile and elderly Georgians should make plans to shelter in place at least through May 13 – the date Georgia’s Public Health Emergency expires.

    Meanwhile, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms says her city is not ready to re-open due to the health concerns involved.

    “For as much as all of us would like to get back to some semblance of normalcy, we can’t do it now. We don’t know what our rates are in Georgia,” she told MSNBC.

    — City of Atlanta, GA (@CityofAtlanta) April 18, 2020

    After Kemp’s announcement, Lance Bottoms issued a statement saying that she was gathering her advisory board to advise on next steps for Atlanta.

    “Reopening the city must be executed in a cautious manner that is best suited for Atlanta,” said Mayor Bottoms. “The Advisory Council will provide the necessary input and buy-in from Atlanta stakeholders to outline a safe and thoughtful framework to get our economy back on track without endangering public health.”

    Because of the ongoing health crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, online grocery sales have exploded. Like many people, you may not be able to get a shopping slot on apps like Instacart, Shipt or Amazon.

    The reason for this is because so many people are using the apps that the online grocers are overwhelmed. That’s why they’ve gone on a hiring spree right now. But here’s how you can get you some groceries.

    Best Time To Grocery Shop On Instacart, Shipt, Amazon, Etc.

    I ran across this hack by watching for slots to open on Instacart and Amazon (I have Amazon Fresh). Here’s what you need to do: Log on early in the morning, anytime from 6 to 7 a.m.

    During that time period, you’ll see that there may be time slots available for later in the day. 

    It’s unlikely that the 1-hour grocery delivery will be available, but the 2-hour grocery delivery may be available. If not, the evening time slot should definitely be there.

    How To Reserve A Grocery Delivery Slot Online

    The thing is, you may have to do all your shopping first before you can see what time slots are available.

    To test the market, you can walk through the steps of buying a single item and see what time slots are available. When you see that a delivery slot is open, go ahead and reserve it and add to your order.

    If this strategy works for you, please let me know in the comments!

    The Atlanta Falcons debuted new team uniforms on Wednesday with updated designs that build on the team’s main red and black colors.

    One departure from past jerseys is that the uniforms have the word “ATL” printed on the front. Typically that’s where the actual name of the team would go, but this is groundbreaking.

    The Atlanta Falcons Twitter account shared the new fits with the caption: “New day, new drip.”

    The jerseys add some spice to the squad’s 2020 season, which will be like no other, given the global health crisis going on. 

    The Falcons likely aren’t the only team with new outfits this year. It remains to be seen if any other franchises will follow suit.

    Falcons Coach Dan Quinn says the team has had to adjust to the new normal by learning how to teach online. He says with the technology they have and the planning they’re putting into place, they’re learning “how to throw a hell of a virtual offseason.”
