A thread: When I started working from home on Tuesday, March 17th, my colleagues learned of one of the framed posters on my wall during our morning Google Hangouts. So, for amusement, I decided to switch out the artwork every workday for our morning meetings. (1/X)

A downside of newsroom hangout calls amid coronavirus is everyone seeing what my morning hair looks like. An upside is seeing @JoeBReporter's giant framed Barenaked Ladies poster.

Just got off the phone with @Dr_JLJohnson. He tells me he’s staying in the race for gov. and plans to file Monday. He had a stmt written to leave the race but has since “torn that statement up” “The people of SC have overwhelmingly spoken up and they made their voices heard.”

Today The State newspaper bids farewell to @hannahwade2000 as she leaves for a new job. Hannah did great work for us and brought a lot of fun to the newsroom. She's also an all-around great person. To celebrate Hannah's journalism career, here's a photo of her with Bob Woodward.

The Senate receded for 10 minutes at approximately 1:55 pm. They came back in at approximately 4:30 pm. That works out to 1 Senate minute equaling 15.5 real minutes.

After a bunch of Republicans took leave during a pause on the hemp debate, we have receded for 10 minutes. Now looks like Massey meeting with a couple of Dem members, who he might need. Floor looks quite diminished at this point.

If today's earlier recess is any indicator, this recess will last 70 minutes. To note, we have yet to finalize an actual Senate minute to real minute conversion formula.
