Go Away Flu

Everyone's falling ill at some point this past week!! It's outrageous. If we actually measured happiness in this world, I'm sure this would be the Great Depression of 2009 (WOW it's 2009 and in a year we're graduating. Damn.)

Seriously folk, the CDC doesn't exist for no reason (though its budget might speak otherwise). Here's just a few tips they suggest:
  • "Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it." (Tissue = very important)
  • "Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective."
  • "Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way."
  • "Stay home if you get sick." Be misanthropic and STAY HOME.
Don't be an incubator for disease!
