The Plague

Ah, the swine flu... or as my friend Jenny refers to it, the pig plague, but I would like to go further and just call it The Plague. I do this because, well... we haven't had a good plague for a while, and just let me enjoy it, alright. The Plague could kill a lot of people but it could also mean shorter lines to buy stuff. Do the costs outweigh the benefits... maybe, I don't know...

I read an article that said, to avoid getting The Plague, you should do a couple things:

1. Wash your hands in warm water for 20 seconds/use hand sanitizer.(They didn't say how frequently you should do this but I'm guessing that it should be in direct proportion to how expendable you are. In other words if you are important to society do it more, if not, do it less or forget about it altogether)
   
2. Stay 3 feet away from people.(good news, I do this naturally... Some people think it's because I don't like them, but really it's to stop the spread of disease)
3. Don't touch your eyes, nose or mouth with your hands.
4. Don't touch the eyes, nose or mouth of a pig with your hands
