The Swine Flu is the big news right now. Any other news is taking a back door to this. Of course this is important, but when all is said and done, as far as I can see it is still the flu. If you get it, you do the same things you would do if you had any other flu.
But according to the NEWS, I get the impression that this is not only important, it's IMPORTANT!!!!!
Meanwhile, as we figure out where to get very our own surgical mask, a few other not as important things are happening.
• The House approved a 3.4 Trillion Dollar budget.
• Federal Reserve (who ever he is) said that the U.S. economy is getting worse, but the pace of decline has slowed and the outlook has improved. (Uh??? It's getting worse but the outlook is improved???)
• Five members of Congress and three activists were arrested on civil disobedience charges in front of the Sudanese Embassy on Monday for protesting "crimes against humanity" in Darfur. (Yes our US congressmen.)
• Cruise ship with 1,500 people on board fended off a pirate attack just off Somalia. (Really pirates? In 2009?)
Some other day these stories might be important but not as important as the Swine Flu!!!!
Oh, and by the way, surgical mask were not created to protect the wearer from breathing in very small particles. But they make a great new fashion statement.
The good new? Diskeeper 2009 can breathe new life into old PCs.
