    I just found out that a girl one floor above me in my dorm has the swine flu. Fantastic. And there were about 20 other cases reported too around campus. Oh, and the newspaper's headline a day ago was "Swine Flu expected to effect over half of USC students." And then I saw on yahoo that officials predict 90,000 people to die from H1N1 this season in America with millions being hospitalized. That's not all. I found out one of my old baseball friends has cancer, and I got dumped last week. Not a good week for me. But at least I got some sweet sockmonkey decals on the way. Hopefully I'll still be alive and H1N1 free when they get here.

    Be safe man! Just remember, a mask and germ-x aren't going to do a thing against H1N1, so just save your money. But just stay away from them!

    Sorry to hear about your baseball friend. :(

    Swine flu is a bunch of hype about nothing.

    Sorry to hear about your friend though.

    Yeah its only contagious through direct contact. And I think they quarantined them already too, but I'm sure there are more people that have it that don't know they have it yet.

    Yep.

    There has been a few cases about 10 miles away from here, and hopefully it'll stay far away.

    I just don't get the hype.

    Influenza virii break out every year. They all cause thousands of deaths yearly. All influenza virii come from birds or pigs (edit: some from rodents too). That's how they work.

    I fail to see how Swine Flu is any different other than the major-cable network feeding frenzy.

    Honestly, I'm way past bored with it.
