"We're all going to die!!"

I am so tired of hearing about the Swing Flu (not to mention the ‘when pigs fly’ puns). Although I do have a vacation riding on this thing, I am getting sick of seeing pictures in the paper of people walking around in masks. I am supposed to leave for Puerto Vallarta in exactly 18 days. I’ve read online that no reports of Swine Flu have been reported in Jalisco (the state we will be in), nor in neighboring states. I am not worried. I know everyone is freaked out about it, but as long as you have decent hygiene and are a generally healthy person with a normal immune system, you will live to fight another day…

I actually read the other day online that this is just a government conspiracy to keep people at home so they will spend their money here, as opposed to the Mexican vacation spots. Give me a break. If you honestly believe this I hope you get swine flu. Wouldn’t that just be a big slap in the face?

Another “doosie” that I've heard recently is that Al-Qaeda is responsible, and this is a terroristic attack. Yeah, I am sure the plan of attack goes something like this: A – Hijack US planes and fly them into buildings and kill thousands. B – Spread flu to make people feel like crap, but we’ll start the whole thing in Mexico. That will throw the dumb Americans off of our trail. Hah. Seriously people, if we were going to be attacked, don’t you think they would be targeting the US with a more deadly chemical or virus?

Now with all of this being said … watch me go on vacation regardless of the opinion of the CDC and become infected. Should I become tremendously ill and die, please someone hack into my BlogSpot and delete this message, because no one likes the “I told you so conversation!”

You may just want to go ahead and give me your password so I can delete this post once you get the swine flu. Ha!
