Daughter Victem of the Swine Flu

edited April 2009 in General Discussion
Yesterday I posted that I felt that the swine flu would be a non-event. Today a local school canceled school due to flu. Because 1 school was canceled, todays regional track meet was delayed. My daughter should make it thru to the State Qualifier meet in the 800 and the 4X800 relay. Today is hot, tomarrow, cool and rainy. Some kids do poorly in the heat. My daughter does better in heat (hotter the better) and poorly in cool, cold, rainy. Today was a reasonably sure thing she would get thru to the next meet, tomarrow she is on the bubble. If they have the meet on Sat., 2 girls on her relay team have the SAT test, and will not be there. There are no replacements for these 2 girls. Yesterday, it looked pretty sure that she would be running 2 events next weekend, now it is very possible she won't be running at the State Qualifier meet. All because of the flu, and she wasn't even sick.

    I truely believe swine flu is just the flu. I am bothered that school is called over one case of the flu. This to me is result of the "feminization" of our country. When I was a kid, 50 years ago it would take a lot more than one case of the flu to cancel school. I guess the difference is the country wasn't made up of a bunch of weenies. I will always prioritize non-events as zero.

    I've heard that a Obama commemorative coin worn around ones neck is powerful Juju and will protect you from disease and rational thought.

    My kids are in the Fort Worth ISD, so they are out of school until the 11th, luckily my oldest is mature enough and I have a FIL that can stop by and check up, so the wife and I can still work. Something that is being missed, is I have guys that have had their hours cut, now have wife's that are risking thier jobs to stay home for a week. I know school should never be treated as day care.......... but sorry, that isn't the society we live in anymore. [V][V][V]

    Dang fools this Swine flu will kill most all of you, luckily I have taken 400 doses of Tamiflu and while granted the side effects of growing an extra arm are not really beneficial (it doesn't work) It don't hurt none neither. And for those who think Mr.Booamba created this flu that is just nonsense, of course this flu was created by the mexicans to get the rest of them over here. You see all the rich Americans already moved to Cancun, only ones left here are us, well those of us who are not already sneezing, as you read this post you probably notice watery eyes, runny nose, getting worse, soon enough you will have a high fever and achy all over. Sorry but you have just contracted the flying fing avian doing a swine flu, this flu started when a mexican mated with a swine who had a bird come lick him and then crapped on a texas steer who was mated by a texan and started this whole Avian, swine human flu thing. I read all of this in the federal ledger right before they took me out of congress in hand cuffs early today.I escaped by threating to bite one of the guards and give them this deadly sexually conrived concoction of flu like geneticlly altered disease
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!
