Flu, Hug Me!

I feel bad for anyone suffering from the flu. I had the bug last year and rode it out like a bad bowl of Erendira menudo. Just a wee reality check for the crazed Purell set. And speaking of Purell... Imagine a touchable world? That's your million dollar slogan from J. Walter Thompson? Was the copy writer from one of the Seven Sister schools or something? Eew.

Bullet or disease, people, you can't buy your way out of "your time". Tell 'em, Hank.
