At Home with a Bad Cold....


What is it that possesses normally intelligent people to come to work when they're sick? So they can give their damned illnesses to the rest of us? I know they come to work sick to prove their loyalty, and also because they need the money...but...it really messes with people like me who don't go to work when we're sick, because we don't want to infect our co-workers, or in turn, their families. I also need the money, you shit-for-brains.

My nose is running like a Swamp Cooler on a hot New Mexican summer day. My whole body aches. I have a fever, which to people with MS is like spending 15 hours in a hot sun doing hard labour! I.E., not good. Not good at all. I don't want to do IV steroids again. Thank you, loyal Northwestern Employees!

At some point this afternoon, in order to sit up-right, I was forced to fashion some kind of "nose tampon" out of toilet paper in order to read. My nose was not running...no, it was in a full hand gallop .

It will be worse as we move into Fall, when all the shit-for-brain's sproggen(children, brats, flesh-loaves) start going back to school. Yep, your kids are viral resevoirs, and get over it. Parents should not be permitted to work with the rest of the human race during the fall/winter cold and flu season. They should be assigned to buildings far, far away from the rest of us for the duration. I don't want your damn kid's diseases. You all need to learn when to stay home. Telecommute, you yuppie morons. You all have better jobs than I do.

Re: the Cindy Sheehan thing. Kudoes to her. She has every right to be saying what she is saying, and who am I to say anything against her. Which I wouldn't anyway, because she is exactly right. Here is a fine article written by someone who opines what Fox News would have said in the days of Rosa Parks...had they existed then, and thank god they didn't. Otherwise, voting rights would have never happened.

Sorry you're sick, and I agree that typhoid Terries show up in misguided stoicism that contaminates everyone else. I'm also sorry about the guy in the tube. As more details of the story comes out, it is a terrible thing.

Sheehan, IMO, is a shrill grandstander who got to meet the Prez, lost her much-vaunted cojones, reported he was kind to her in her grief, and now wants a do-over 'cause she wasn't ready. She ought to make her own arguments against the war not claims for the views of her son whose actions at least as a serial enlistee who insinuated himself into combat situations might indicate his opinions to be very different.

She has a right to her own opinions, of course, and to stage whatever protests she wants and can get the media to cover. But appropriating the names of fallen soldiers, especially those she didn't bear, as if their deaths in any way equated to their de facto approval of her position is dirty business. She's also one of those happy to spout unsubstantiated 9/11 conspiracy rumors who would prefer to see Afghanistan back under the Taliban. I'd divorce her loopy heiny, too. We'll see if the MSM gets bored, although they haven't grown weary of Natalee Hollaway yet, so I'm not optimistic.

Cindy Sheehan never, ever claimed she was speaking for anyone but herself.

She simply wanted to kmow what noble cause her son died for.
