I just discovered it's possible to live on a boat near Chicago all year round.
While it may be possible, it's definitely not something you would want to do in the winter.

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

Well, some people do. But yeah, heating can be an issue....

This is cool: Big Cats and Pumpkins
If you recall the kitten eating a melon video, you won’t be surprised at how much the really big cats at Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, Florida enjoy pumpkins and other gourds, both for playing with and for eating.

Scary flu news--someone at my office has been confirmed with H1N1! They've been quarantined and haven't been at the office since before they got it, so we should be fine here.

Good to hear that you are not all doomed.

A water company is selling spray bottles of de-ionized water that they claim will fight the swine flu, which I think is ridiculous. Apparently it has magic properties, because one would think soap and a scrub would be more important in the keeping hands clean thing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I wonder about unconfirmed cases.
I've been sick as hell. I ran a temperature (when not tylenoled) for four days. I returned to work after one day out but I "should" have stayed out two more and easily could have not left my bed all week. It sure seems like a flu and I've had the shot (which rules out a number of swine-free varieties). I have no health insurance. I'm not spending money to hear "rest & fluids" and cure nothing but my curiosity.
Obviously if I became dangerously ill I'd have gone to the doctor and eaten the cost or gotten indigent care or the like.
So how many people get plenty sick with H1N1, go back to work as soon as they can, and never end up in the stats? How many non-critical cases go unreported because the uninsured person is untreated and what does this do to the statistics of critical cases?

I sure hope you start feeling better.
