School Days, School Days, Dear Old Snow and Flu Days…

Cidu Bill on May 27th 2009

Just wondering… Has anybody ever heard of “flu days”? Other than during this year’s Swine Flu Panic, that is. Seriously, can somebody explain why we’re treating this like Son of the Black Plague? Sure, it can be a dangerous illness — but so can “seasonal flu” (a term apparently nobody needed until this year; think “analog clock”), which so far has killed, no exaggeration, more than one thousand times as many Americans this year as Swine Flu has.New York City Health Commissioner Thomas Frieden said yesterday, “Our hearts go out to their families” of two New Yorkers who apparently died from Swine Flu last week, adding “as for everybody who died of other causes last week, hey, life’s a bitch.”

Keera Ann Fox: Who or what is he trying to keep out, and why does he look like he really wants to beat whatever/whoever it is up so it’s just an advantage if whoever/whatever comes through the door? (At least I think that’s a door.)
