| | | Swine Flu cure
STOP the presses! My daughter just phoned to say that her boss's soon-to-be-x-husband had just called up to their office to say that God had just told him that "pot" was the cure for swine flu. I don't think he is in any danger of getting it.

Haha . . . Some guy came in to the ER the other day saying he had a cure for H1N1 and wanted to get the illness himself so that he could cure it. I gently told him to go away. I suspect he was using the pot cure as well. |

I think I'm on the mend.

| You very well may have had it...I read here that GI symptoms have been present in swine flu cases. (That's been a very enlightening forum to read for h1n1 updates.) (and while I'm at it, this article gives guidance from the CDC on how to tell if your case of the flu needs medical attention.)
Glad you recovered, Jason. The pictures of you and your daughter wearing masks together is kind of cute.

This is the great reason why so many Christians, who will certainly go to heaven—do walk in darkness, and lie down in sorrow." - Thomas Brooks |

I drive a bus. That's like a petri dish on wheels. I think I may be immune to everything but taxes.

| | | I know this is an old thread
but it caught my attention, as of this time Okinawa has the highest rate of Swine-flu in Japan, there are already US military families that have been inflicted with it. Several schools have shutdown for weeks to avoid further spreading. All we can do now is wash hands and gargle and pray. The worst part is I'm posting this on the humor page
