Hmmm ...
What happened to the phrase "Swine Flu"?
"Pork Flu", "Pig Flu"? Pig farmers don't like that phrase?

I will probably get the H1N1 shot. I am around too many people.

I used to get the flu once or more every year. One year was bad and
decided to get the regular shot the next time around. For me it worked,
I have not had the flu since, almost 10 years ago.

If I was not around so many people, younger, no past health problems, I
would not get the shot. Since I am older, around people and feel every
ache and pain, I will get the shot. And ... hope I do not have to live
in an underground settlement only coming out at night with half a brain
and looking like a "legendary" neanderthal.

Enjoy Life ... Dan
