Tens of thousand of people in this country die of flu every year.  By all accounts, H1N1 mostly manifests as a fairly mild illness.  It's only if it mutates that we need to worry.

I am with you, Buffcoat.

Also, note that the the claim that this nurse died of complications of H1N1 comes from her family.  At least wait till their assertion is confirmed before you start to fret.

Freddie Ricks, your use of the quote function never ceases to puzzle and amuse me.  Keep a rollin.

When I am hot I remove my sweater.

Apparently, the only suitable vaccine at this point is something called "greasy funk". Get thee to your (thoust?) record collection.

...but as Sarah notes, the real trouble begins if/when it mutates.

Sorry, I was too sweaty to type.

The letters kept slipping through my fingers.

I considered pointing out pedantically that the witticism only works if one mispronounces the name of the town, but then I thought better of it.

Then thought again, apparently, cake-haver-and-eater-too.

i went to walmart last night (where else can you get practice-space padlocks and keys made at 10pm?; and i'm sorry) and i forgot to use those sanitizing wipes that they supply by the carts.

this is the end, isn't it?
