Also, I apparently need to send ND an email about prepping for the next show at the colony.

Shit. Who's going to be #3? Maybe they'll all go in one day.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I'd say corduroy season lasts until right before "dude, aren't you too hot in that?" season begins
Amych is me. Not that I own a pair of corduroys, but if I did, I'd be wearing them or not based on the temperature, not the calendar.

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

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
WRT the vaccination discussion: The kids have had all of them, and I don't believe the possible autism claims because there are far more plausible explanations for the increase in diagnoses. But I do have one issue with the vaccinations. Given that they do cause pain to my poor wee babies, there are too many of them. By 2 years my kids must have had 20 shots, and not all of them were for life threatening illnesses.
Measles, polio, hep B, etc, yeah of course, give my kid the dang shot. But chicken pox? That shot HURTS. And chicken pox is annoying, but it ain't gonna kill the kid. AND it turns out the vaccination doesn't actually provide immunity to it, it just lessens the severity of the illness. And there are other vaccinations that I wondered about. It wasn't worth pulling my kids out of daycare, but I did question the value of some of those shots.

Yes, but if enough children are vaccinated against chicken pox, there's the possibility that it will disappear. When chicken pox recurs as shingles, it's not pretty.

...I kinda wonder about Hep B. I mean...it's a blood borne and sexually transmitted illness. You can't wait until you're older for that vaccine? (Sure, if you're at risk for some reason, but...)
Chicken pox does kill kids every year, though it's WAY more dangerous if you get it as an adult. But I can still see the argument, it does seem like a bit of a silly thing to vaccinate against sometimes. ("About one of every 100 children infected with chickenpox will develop a severe lung infection (pneumonia), an infection of the brain (encephalitis), or a problem with the liver. Dangerous skin infections also can occur. Before the introduction of the vaccine, about 100,000 people were hospitalized and 100 people in the United States died each year of chickenpox, most of them previously healthy children. Adolescents and adults who develop chickenpox are also at high risk of developing serious complications.")
