36. The Swine Flu can be traced back to CLIFF CLAVEN! (hahaha)

Has anyone else notice that at the beginning of the second commercial, it's actor John Ratzenberger playing Joe who infects his whole family?

39. One thing that still puzzles me is why is there so much attention when it's the swine flu and yet every year we lose 40,000 people in this country from the regular flu. In the world there are half a million deaths annually from the regular flu.

43. girlsnguns, thank you! People who are complaining that the media is hyping it too much (which they really aren't) are going to end up with it and realize that maybe they should've listened. They would also be the ones complaining if we weren't warned and they ended up catching it. It really is true -- damned if you do, damned if you don't. I guess you can't please everyone and there is always going to be something people find to complain about.If it's not one thing, it's something else. I feel like most adults have the maturity level of most 8-year-olds -- they just don't grow out of wining and I'm sick of it.

And no, I'm not a paranoid person who is absolutely terrified about the Swine Flu (and the fact that none of us have the ability to fight it off), but I do have some cause of worry when it's spreading so fast and I have a child whose life is in my hands -- and I have no control over what happens. I can take precautions, but they don't guarantee anything.

Karma is a bitch. That's all I'm sayin', people. Think about it.

44. SARS, West Nile, and now this. All were hyped, called world wide epidemics, and they in total killed less people then the regular flu does. Everyone who’s freaking out about this is just too dense to look back and learn from the past.

45. I remember the first commercial when it aired vividly. It came on between Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids and American Bandstand and you knew that cartoons were over for the week. It also aired duirng "The Waltons" too.

1975-1976 were "fun times" with CB's, the Bicentennial and Swine Flu. I used to get to stay up and watch "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" and "Fernwood 2Nite" if I didn't ask questions.
