    Exclamation Warning! Do Not Sleep with Birds!

    If you sleep with birds, you run the risk of contracting Avian Flu. As was famously made plain in the AIDS/HIV ads of the 1980s, when you sleep with birds, you sleep not only with that bird, but every bird they have slept with for the last 20 years!

    I'm tempted to do a google search to find out, but I'm afraid of what I'd see.

    A few actual facts about the brand of bird flu we're presently worried about in the future:

    It almost never spreads between humans and in two years has infected 117 people, all in Asia, and most of them were bird handlers — people who practically sleep with ducks and chickens and geese...

    In February 2004, there was an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in a flock of 7,000 chickens in south-central Texas...

    If you're in Texas, you might wanna kick those chickens out of bed...

    *Flash* Don't Sleep with Birds and Don't Eat Their Eggs Either

    Sleeping with birds is bad -- you might want to refrain from eating bird eggs too!

    But, what if you mix them with sauerkraut. Yeah, scrambled eggs with sauerkraut. A little ketchup or hot sauce, and mmmmm.

    Yep!

    Well, assuming nobody on this web site is sleeping with birds, how else can 'we' protect ourselves from Bird Flu?

    Scientisits know, for a fact, that Bird Flu can be spread by (mis)handling chicken eggs, e.g. Bird Flu can (and does) exist on egg shells. The concern, now, is whether or not the Bird Flu makes its way into the inside of the egg itself...

    I don't know about you but, starting today, I'm washing the feces-laden chicken eggs that come into this house from the local supermarket. I wouldn't think about eating carrots, celery, et cetera without washing them, so it's not such a stretch... or is it?
