I like your tagline.
I heard this one.
The New York Times says god is dead.
Thankfully god doesn't bother to read the New York Times.

"Dr. Jeffrey Runge, homeland security's chief medical officer, said "it's not a matter of if, but when" bird flu enters the country. But it won't pose a critical threat until the virus can spread consistently between people, he said." - (A/P, May 19, 2006)

This (the bird flu virus mutating and spreading from human to human), is what the doctors have feared.

"It has mutated into a virus that makes one a Liberal for a day."

"It stopped. It was dead end at that point," said Tim Uyeki

Not particularly dangerous unless there is an outbreak on election day.

Yes it is, and all kidding aside, I suspect it has been going on for a while.

Well since it has a 50% fatality rate I would say that there is much reason for concern.

Accidently droping your hair dryer into the tub has a 100% fatality rate, and I'm guessing that this has happened at leat 130 times worldwide in the last three years. Enough with the bird flu nonsense.

Perhaps in a country without circuit breakers.
