Things to do while (self) quarantined from the Virus...

Now that you've settled in with enough cases of Toilet Paper (and hopefully enough food so you can use all of it), gallons of Hand Sanitizer you can leave to your kids, those masks you got from the guy on the street corner selling fake Rolexes, 20 or so boxes of Kleenex Tissues you beat the little old lady to in aisle 3 at Wally World, 2 dozen frozen Pizzas, are you:

Worried about what to do with all that free time?

Why not grab a couple (dozen) videos to watch for the next 500 hours or so from Netflix or Amazon Prime (since all sports have been canceled - Good Gawd!), some popcorn and a case or two or more of Corona to wash it down?

Here is a partial list of some pertinent movies that might make your internment feel right at home.

Outbreak
28 Days Later
28 Weeks Later
Contagion
Inferno (The book was better)
12 Monkeys
The Andromeda Strain
Quarantine
The Last Man on Earth
I Am Legend

There are probably more others might suggest.

Enjoy.
