Well, it sure proves that not many have been to Myanmar!

Not so true if you read today's newspaper. It is beginning to look like a real threat. And with those rascal scientists actually studying how to make it more deadly, it's just a matter of time before all become chicken(s). From TODAY's Wall Street Journal: Hong Kong Urges Bird-Flu Vigilance HONG KONG—Health authorities in Hong Kong are urging residents to take steps to ensure personal hygiene, and the city remains on high alert following the bird-flu-related death of a man in mainland China. Renewed fears in Hong Kong came as Chinese authorities said preliminary tests showed the Shenzhen man, who died Saturday and whose case was China's first reported human case of bird flu in 18 months, was infected with the deadly H5N1 strain of the virus—as was a dead bird found in Hong Kong's New Territories before the holidays. A spokesman for Hong Kong's Centre for Health Protection said Tuesday that the health department is in close contact with its Chinese counterpart and urged vigilance by people in Hong Kong to prevent new infections. On Saturday, the government suspended imports of live poultry and poultry products from parts of neighboring Shenzhen for three weeks in a bid to reduce the likelihood of an outbreak. Authorities said Tuesday that two more migratory birds discovered dead in Hong Kong were found to be infected with the bird flu, though further tests are needed to determine whether it was H5N1 or the less dangerous H5 strain. Bird flu, or avian influenza, remains a threat primarily to poultry, not humans. According to the World Health Organization, there is no evidence of the virus's passing to humans through properly cooked poultry or eggs. Most of the people who have been infected with H5N1 had contact with live birds or their droppings.

I think that Oz about summed it up. If, like me, you enjoy the novels, stick with them as the movie does not do it justice. A very slow start, but somewhat better at the end. I had some trouble telling who was who.

Sadly, eastburbguy never got to see it. RIP.

So, is Barry a moderator here or a guest? Or is he here at all?

So we give bewareofnick his Politics forum, and he disappears on us. Maybe Nick finally caught up to him!

Yeah, sure. he would love to meet us but could only be bothered to post once!

EXPAT, did you get your wish? (And who says I didn't give you an opportunity to add to your post count?)

Still waiting for Adriano to join the forum.

Too bad Oz had already posted them. I know, it's hard to get up to speed, but worth the effort!

One benefit of the Iowa caucuses- bye, bye Bachmann!

My recommendation would be to put your health first. The Bike Ride can wait.

I would not fuck a Romney, but I might fuck the Mormon Missionary who comes to my door.

Sir is Tom Cruise's daughter. He had to put her to work, not knowing if the MI movie would be a success.

Hmmm...two jokes,only one being funny. Do I say which one I laughed at, thus hurting the other guys' feelings, or do I just say Ha ha? Haha!

If you were in the locker room at the Palm Springs World Gym, you couldn't help but noticing how the ass sags over the years. My thought would be to cover it up with a towel, but that seems foreign to many of these guys. They get to be NAKED in front of other guys, thus living out their high school fantasy.

No one seems to be taking up the invitation, so might as well unpin the thread. With the contest going on, I guess i will report back on what is happening in Porto Alegre!

With EXPAT posting over 50 times a day, who can compete with that? It means he has been holding out on us!

It only proves the sanctity of marriage. If this guy had converted to Episcopalian, he'd still be a bishop and still on his way to heaven. As it is, he burns in hell!

Thank God no one posts drunk here.

A recess appointment is only good for one year.

Patience when a hot butt might be in the works? You kid!

If it would shut you up, I am sure we could find some volunteers!

That is the same point wherein Obama will support marriage eqaulity.

Face it, there are plenty of guys whom you try make create anal disharge!
