Get ready for an illegal immigration boom. I hope the Minutemen are paying attention (I know you are).

I guess they continue to call it “swine flu” for “convenience” sake even though it’s a combination of avian, swine and human flu.

Let’s please begin calling this Flu outbreak - The Mexican Flu... as I have posted elsewhere - if we can have the Hong Kong flu - we can certainly have the Mexican Flu in our lexicon...

If they are doing this, it’s probably worse than we
have been led to believe. It’s not on most folks radar
here but it WILL BE.

“Mexico City cancels all public events to fight flu”

Do you think it might be possible Mexico could call all their illegal aliens in the U.S. to return home to help fight the flu.... (just wishing)...

For the purpose of the quarantine, kidnappings will still be considered private events and are permitted between the hours of 12:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m.

Sometimes people in Mexico think these things are put on the news to distract us from other news. When Salinas Gortari the President did some extraordinary movements in political circles, they floated news in Mexico about some kind of a GOAT SUCKER...Chupa Cabras.,..was eating goats and sucking blood, and people needed to keep windows closed. It distracted people long enough to allow the gov’t to introduce change. I don’t know..but I think the index of death by kidnappings in Mexico is far higher than the FLU. And about 100% of those who got it in the USA lived...are we making something bigger of this than is acutally meant to be?

Pandemics are inevitable. Maybe this is not THE BIG ONE, but remember: guns, groceries, chlorox, face masks, gloves, goggles, etc. Don’t forget lime for the dead, unprepared neighbors.

I knew there was something I'd forgotten!

Here in the B.C. mountains wild animals will eat any corpses lying around, I think.

But still...back to the store!

My friends who live in Mexico are in Houston now. They arrived last week and the husband promptly got sick as soon as they arrived. He went to the doctor and it was diagnosed as bronchitis. He has traveled all over the US on business while sick with.... whatever. I spoke to his wife a few minutes ago, they haven't been watching the news and knew nothing about what has been going on in Mexico. I told her to get on the Internet and check it out. She has not caught what he has but he hasn't gotten over it yet, I heard him coughing while I spoke with her.

I imagine they can if they have been in contact with other flu victims. Wouldn’t that be ironic.

Fore-warned is fore-armed as they say.
At some point the flu epidemic/pandemic
that we fear is going to make it’s appearance.
