A woman gets off a cruise ship in mexico and at the bottom of the ramp a man is passing out masks. She declines and he says it's mandatory! She replys..When pigs fly!

And he says...Si! Swine flu!

I had to pick up a prescription today at the local hospital. There was a Hispanic lady that came in wearing a mask, latex gloves, and booties over her shoes!!

I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Can I just get it and get it over with? It's the flu for goodness sake. I'll spend a few days in bed, my immune should take over and then be invincible.

it's all these zombie movies. "I am legend", "28 days later" = mass paranoia. It's the flu. running nose, a cough, a few days in bed. come on.
