Do I Have the Swine Flu?

Chances are you don't. This pandemic is likely to kill less people than... well anything,
but even if you did, I wouldn't know how to tell.

I've heard that people running a fever over 100 should check it out, but really, I think we're going to survive it... at least this time around.

But if you're interested in it, this map is decent.
Swine Flu

And While I may not be much help with things like the Swine flu,
I do know something about that other nasty virus
Conficker!!!

Yeah it's much more likely that you were infected by this one. Way more likely that you were infected... unless you own a mac, and then I'd probably faint if you were infected, afterall, Macs are naturally antiseptic. No seriously.

But regardless, conficker is out there, and you may already have won. The big questions are
1) How do you know?
and
2) What to do if you did get it?

So how do you know?
If it was me I would follow this link...

It's not perfect, but it's a nice place to start.
It will take you to a link that should show you six separate pictures.
If they all down load, then you probably don't have it.

If you do have it... then

Get well soon.

Amish Frienemy Bread

You know that bread, the stuff that you're supposed to give to your friends, but usually you give it to your enemies instead? You know the stuff?

Well my sister brought it with her,
Yeah she actually brought it with her.
and, well we don't have enough eggs, to make the whole batch.
So here we are in that state of inbetweeness where once again we will have both bread and bread starts. Which brings me to my point?

Do you want a bag of Amish friendship goo?

My mom says if we don't hear from you we should assume that's a yes.

You can expect your bag of goo in the next day or two.

Ok, I'm kidding.... kind of.

Seriously do you want a starter??????
