Hey all,
I get updates from the American Medical Association and the Center of Disease Control regarding public health all the time. Since people are starting to panic a little about the bird flu, I thought I would share the latest update regarding it.

"The Center for Disease Control has released a list of symptoms of bird flu.
If you experience any of the following, please seek medical treatment immediately:

1. High fever
2. Congestion
3. Nausea
4. Fatigue
5. Aching in the joints
6. An irresistible urge to crap on someone's windshield"

just trying to be helpful.....

A friend of mine called me up at work Friday and told me this one.
At first, I said I had all but the last one...
but then, I was really having a crappy day, so I could think of a few where #6 would apply.

I guess I'd better get that treatment quick...

Sheila dear -

By now you've probably heard that avian flu is just a conspiracy between the Bush administration and the American beef producers. With millions of innocent chickens being slaughtered, many who would've gone to KFC will now have to settle for a Big Mac. Also, Defense Secretary Rumsfeld is a former Chairman of Gilead Sciences, which holds patents on the base ingredients of the vaccines which the government is proposing to stockpile.

Your intrepid reporter...

Actually, bird flu is a genetic variant of the STD known as "chirpies." It's a canarial disease. Nearly untweetable...
