Rewarding (to some) A-H1N1 flu hysteria grips globe
--snip--
Global panic seems to have taken hold on the flu front, as media sensationalism magnifies medical warnings into worldwide alarm. A key soccer match plays to empty stands in Mexico, gates locked against ticketholders; Mexican City restaurants, bars, movies, discos, theaters, gyms and swimming pools are closed for five days at a cost of $100 million a day; tourist ships are veering away from Mexican ports; one child dies and 433 schools are closed in the US; “swine flu” tops the Twitter meter; Egypt orders all pigs slaughtered; Britain with five cases orders 32 million face masks; thermal cameras are trained on air passengers from Japan to Turkey; and Lebanon discourages the traditional Arab peck on the cheek greeting. Cuba and Argentina stop flights to Mexico, and Hong Kong Taiwan and Russia are imposing quarantines on visitors with fever...

All the best--GGG
Oh no! I feel the grip gripping me! We’re doomed!
The “hini” flu is coming for you.....
Doomed, doomed I tell ya.
The press did not get their “more than average number of hurricanes”. They did not get the massive numbers of deaths caused by global warming. The bird flu “pandemic” was a wash.
So they have bet all on the hini flu. Yea the hini flu, cause this stuff is becoming a pain in my Arse.
Of course, if you don’t feel the grip gripping you, you’re not supposed to gripe about it because we are better safe than sorry and, well, we can always treat this false alarm as a drill!
Why?, Because they are trying to survive.
The blogs are their bane and their demise, because "The Truth will Out
Amen to that! But there is a much more sinister agenda behind all these so-called public health emergencies. They are using these emergencies as a back door to push totalitarian socialism, all in the name of “protecting the public.”

FEVER Peggy Lee’s 1958 version
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that’s so hard to bear
You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever)
Fever ... in the mornin’
Fever all through the night
Sun lights up the day time
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
‘cause I know you’re gonna treat me right
You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever)
Fever ... in the mornin’
Fever all through the night (WOW!!)
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said, “Julie baby you’re my flame”
Thou givest fever when we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever I’m on fire
Fever yea I burn forsooth
Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said “Daddy oh don’t you dare”
“He gives me fever with his kisses”
“Fever when he holds me tight”
“Fever, I’m his missus”
“Daddy won’t you treat him right?”
Everybody’s got the fever
That is somethin’ you all know
Fever isn’t such a new thing
Fever started long time ago
(You give me fever)
Now you’ve listened to my story
Here’s the point that I have made
Cats were born to give chicks fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
We give you fever when we kiss you
Fever if you live and learn
Fever till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
Being as afraid as I can be!
