This Whole Swine Flu Thing

Ok, so they are saying that we have another “killer flu” on our hands. Just like Bird Flu and the other Swine Flu and a whole load of flu varieties that have popped up and not become pandemics over the past 30 years. 100 dead in Mexico? Several times that many people will be murdered in Mexico by the end of this week. Less than two dozen cases in the US? Yeah, let’s get all worried and panic…cos out of 300,000,000 people, 15 or 20 is an epidemic.

Wake me up when people are dropping by the hundreds daily. I refuse to panic about it or get my hopes up that this flu will really thin the herd.

  1. It’s because of my beard isn’t it? You think my beard looks like a blackberry bush. Well I want you to know that I TRIMMED IT! JUST YESTERDAY! And now it is quite neat.

    1. LOL
      Actually, my original two thornless blackberry bushes have spawned 4 or 5 new ones, and they needed names. Ed seemed like a sturdy and friendly enough name.
