exhibit a...

See now, I wasn't even going to say anything about this swine flu madness.  'Cause as far as I'm concerned there's some new fangled Killer African Bee, SARS, Cow-Foot-Head disease popping up on CNN just about every six months or so... 

And between you and me, I think that if certain folks would learn how to cover their mouths and use a little hand disinfectant, half of these problems would be solved. But that's just my humble opinion.

But THEN I read this article in the NYTimes that set off my spidey senses. It basically details how experts are now trying to blame the whole health crisis on this poor little 5 year-old Mexican boy.  Talking bout, "The government has identified Édgar Hernadez as the first person in Mexico to have become infected with a virulent strain of the swine flu." Seriously? 

Not for nothing, but doesn't this sound very much like the whole- AIDS started in Africa from people who were having sex with monkeys hypothesis? Yeah, thought so.  $50 bucks says the Mexican government just needed someone to throw under the bus to keep the World Health Organization off their backs. So naturally, they choose the lowest common denominator- a poor, illiterate family and their kid. So. Not. Cool.

You look at the picture and do the math. Err-um, keep it real. We ALL know where this pandemic really, really started...
