But they forget to mention that is how many have died since 2003. I just knew these feckers would find something that kills even less people than sharks and run with it.

1. Yes but were any of them blond women? Then they could establish a running
show devoted specifically to keep track of that tally.

Not that anyone's keeping track of how many poor people with dark skin died in New Orleans or are missing.

2. have they mentioned that they all had direct contact with the birds?
My mother didn't know until I told her that the flu is only contagious between the birds and people, not people and people. Not yet.

5. Well then, we better be giving boy george the authority to bring in the
military so he can enforce 'quarantine' situations, hadn't we?

8. Pandemics--the new duct tape.
I guess this means we don't have to worry about smallpox, anthrax, and ricin anymore.
