Just he to say be careful out there, it looks like its getting pretty bad. The first american just died today and the pandemic rating was just bumped up to 5 today. Maybe start thinking about stocking up on some supplies, just incase. Officials also say that washing your hands frequently would be a good precautionary action to help prevent the spreading of the flu. So just hoping everyone stays well!

actually i believe the toddler that died in Texas is a Mexican citizen visiting the USA
i am not ready to panic just yet.
 
there is a run on hand sanitzer in most stores all ready. I picked up my flu kit last night. Sport drinks, chicken soup, ginger ale and of course hand sanitzer.
 
lol...how do you think I feel ......Im jumpin on a plane next Sat.......and goin to the carribean....
 
Get this, my mom works in the east haddam middle school. She actually touched that kid that could possibly have the flu. So now we got her locked up in her room waiting to hear if the kid had the swine flu or not. I really hope he doesn't, I can't afford or miss work, or die...
 
a coworker of mine flew to mexico last friday morning with his wife, daughter, son in law, and grandson... we haven't heard from him so we don't know what's going on with him :(

this is really nutz...
 
While good hand cleaning habits are always good to have, it won't prevent you from getting the flu as it is generally transmitted via the respiratory tract.

That being said, I'm not ready to panic or join the mass hysteria that seems to be evolving as a result of this "pandemic". I'm just going to wait and watch for the time being.
 
One of the people I work with just came over and sprayed our printers with Lysol. I find this amusing because I've been complaining about a certain local, resident snot hocker, walking farter for over a year now and yet nobody seems to be bothered by him as much as they are by the possible contamination of our printers. People are funny.
 
heh, now they don't want to call it the swine flu, but by it's scientific name.

sorry, but swine flu is easie rto remember, and makes you wonder who kissed the pig....
