Swine Flu and You

[Rick Lee]

I would like to wash my hands more often, but they're already so dry that they crack and bleed, even using moisturizer after every wash. I think 5-8x per day is enough already.

I'm not:

Shaking hands - with anyone.

I am:

Purell equipped as well as engaged in frequent hand washing.

I might:

Start paying everything with a credit card just so I don't handle any nasty currency.

I'm going to cut down on the women i meet online.

Not.

Really??? Sounds like the nut case walking the dog is suffering from a morning overdose of the GMA, Today show etc. talking head garbage fodder hype.

I'm keeping pork products on the smoker for an extra 15.
Pesky H1N1....

I bought 4 of these for my family to wear at all times, even to bed.




I am looking for 4 of these, if anyone has a source, let me know.

Hand sanitizer, avoid shaking hands, that's about it.

I don't have to worry about it. First I was killed by the bird flu, then I was killed again by SARS. Can't get any deader than that.

I also think the swine flu is overblown. That is until I hear it mutates much differently than previous flu when passed from human to human. As of now, there is no known treatment for the swine flu because it mutates so rapidly and in so many ways.

So it's not an ordinary flu.

By the way, guys: the Orthodox and Muslims want all of us to call it the H1N1 flu, and not SWINE FLU. No matter if it is a pandemic, we still have to be sensitive and politically correct to one's religious observations.

I'm going to build up my immunity system by going to the local pig farm and roll around in the muck for a while.

I've fired my entire Mexican lawn crew and my housekeeping staff. I know that doing this on April 30 is very bad for them but hey come tomorrow they'll all be drunk anyway.

[sammyg2]

I stay out of large crowds, I avoid contact with people I don't know or have things in common with, I avoid contact with people I consider to be low-lifes, i'm very careful about where and what I eat.

in other words, I'm not doing anything different

[vash]

i have gotten vocal, when some fool doesnt wash his hands. i have stopped 3 guys just this morning. when this is over, i will be hated.

THIS IS BEYOND STUPID.......what ARE they covering up ???? what is the snews not reporting ..that the banks are about to fall off the edge ??

[onewhippedpuppy]

I shoot everyone that comes within 50 ft of me.

[slakjaw]

I sneezed earlier and the dude standing next to me jumped back like 5 feet.

I covered my mouth and turned my head away too.

[slakjaw]

You know, the Japanese bow rather than shaking hands. Maybe they are on to something over there.

Yeah, but they sometimes bump heads and get concussions. I just like a nice nod and "How're you doing?"
