A few days back, my office sent out a broadcast email to the entire staff.
"HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM SWINE FLU! ! ! ! !"
The email contained about 10 rules that we all learned in pre-school. Cover your mouth. Use a tissue. Wash your hands after using the restroom.
Seriously? There are grown people in the working world who need an email reminder to wash their fcking hands?????
Math lesson:
If you've been potty-trained for 25 years, and use the restroom 5x per day, you've had 45,625 chances to fcking establish the habit.
Maybe a picture from BadAstronomy is worth a 1000 words:
Math lesson 2:
There are 1639 confirmed cases of swine flu in the US. (CDC, May 7)
The population of the US is 307,212,123. (CIA World FactBook)
Odds of winning swine flu lottery: 1 in 187,439
Odds of getting struck by lightening: 1 in 79,746 (About.com)
So you should install a lightening rod on your short-bus helmet before you go out in public wearing a doctor mask.
Other queef-tards in the news: Oprah is giving national coverage to the anti-vaxxers. Between this crap and the KFC coupon, Oprah's aiming for a higher body count than Jenny McCarthy (currently 163).
Next week, I'll have a full recap of the Kid1 college drama. Today is the last day of exams, which he is taking, and the dorms close at noon tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll get a bit of info from him soon to figure out what he's trying to do.
Sunday is Mother's Day, so we'll be running around a bit. Don't forget your momma. Remember now if you'd already forgotten. Send a card, buy her flowers, give a call, make a video, do something dammit!

It's the Jimmy Walker of webgames! Dyn-o-mite!
I actually couldn't get this game to load on my system, but I was told it was worth trying. It's pertinent, sounds funny, and looks like it's got potential, but so did Alannah Myles. Here's DebtSki.
Pizza City... cool little driving game. Reminds me of Taxi.

Out of the whole effing music and smartphone business, is it possible that only Trent Reznor gets it? His reaction to Apple rejecting the NIN iPhone app.
