I'm about to stage a mutiny. They had until noon to send me corrections or changes. I haven't heard "yes, go ahead" from anyone yet.
At 12:30, I'm zipping up what I have, sending it off to be published, and going to lunch.
Kaylee: Can I? Zoe: Sure. He's out, though. Kaylee: He did this for me, once.

My earlier bemusement at this clusterfuck is taking a lumbering turn toward bile and acrimony.

I don't think concern about avian flu has any bearing on whether or not you should get a flu shot.
Currently, the only thing stopping H5N1 from full-blown pandemic-hood is its difficulty in infecting human-to-human. The easiest way for this to change would be for someone infected with a human-adapted strain to catch H5N1, giving the two viruses a chance to exchange genetic information and give birth to a strain with H5N1's lethality and easy human-to-human transmissibility.
So while the flu shot won't protect you against H5N1, the fewer human-adapted strains of influenza infecting the general population, the better.

I got an extension on my essay without even have to ask for it! Wah-hey! It's the little things. If anyone wants to rub my head for luck, they're more than welcome. This kind of thing should be shared around.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Dude, I'm burning this fucking fortune cookie on my next smoke break.
I'm having a disturbing vision of shrift snarling fiercely and covering it with tiny cigarette burns, muttering, "You wanna lecture me, cookie? I got your patience right here, fucko!"
