H1N1


If been thinking for days now, on how to comment on the H1N1 Virus... seeing it's a very delicate topic. So what I will say is that you should definitely be seriously concerned of the hygiene of young children, if you are especially in southern states try to wear a mask, their are many ways to stay healthy.

Many are calling it a "Epidemic" though the WHO hasn't called it that. Yet.Though it has spread all over the world. Many are especially interested in this virus, because they believe it's a conspiracy, and that this "virus" was manufactured in a lab. Whether it's true or not, I wouldn't dare suggest it.

Their are those who make jokes about the swine flu because of it's name. On the Daily show it was said "while they're still swabbing pigs... I'll be rolling around in raccoon flu money!" Though this may appear to be funny to some it's serious to those who've died. On the news today it was stated that a woman in Texas has died. But she was already very ill, so H1N1 just finished her off, or put her out of her misery if that's how you want to say it.

The name "Swine flu" has caused quite an uproar from pig farmers, bacon eaters, hamburger lovers though everyone already knows hamburger isn't ham... it's cow. The dislike of this name and fear of pigs has been solely expressed in Egypt where all pigs were ordered to be slaughtered by the Egyptian government. So, they wanted to call it Mexican flu, but the ambassador from Mexico said this would be offensive to Mexicans. Hehe no kidding. The official name for the virus in the United States of America is "H1N1".

There was a segment on Hope TV, today they were talking with this guy who was on the Oprah show. He was telling Oprah how the food industry was feeding dead cows.... to cows. Oprah looked to the man behind her, who I believe was in the food industry and she asked is that true? She swore of Hamburgers... while on air. Oprah was sued. This is probably worse than what happened there, because people didn't slaughter the cows. It's worse than when E coli had infected lettuce and millions of Americans refrained from eating lettuce and billions of dollars were lost. Even just to be safe people are swearing off that morning bacon.

What has happened to news?


Some of the teachers were over yesterday. And we were watching CNN. When a story came on about the Obama's day out. Now this is an exaggeration of what they said. But the 7 minute thing is true. and some other things.


The Obama's went to POTUS and LOTUS, the most exciting resturant in Washington. Where they had two martinis. Barack took out the olive and placed it on the puse colored 100 count napkin. They had the most exquisite dessert. In which Michelle took her silver dessert fork (gasp) and gently just slightly so not to ruin the dessert scraped of the whipped cream.

After they finished their dessert they talked and laughed candidly. Then rose from their seats paid for the meal, and briskly walked out the door arm in arm. ONLY to be greeted again by the same 200 something people that were their while they arrived. They smiled and waved for 5.43 minutes, and then got into their armoured plated cars with snipers in the back seat.

When they arrived at the White House (Black house) they took a 7 minute walk. In which they simultaneously stopped to look at each other or the sunset. Then they smiled and waved again and disappeared into that marvelous building.
NOW... is this so important that it deserves a whole segment on CNN?? You decide.
