    Sheeple love getting stuck in the ass with a needle full of paranoia. Thiomersal, anyone? I'll pass... There's enough Mercury in most fish for me already.

    @Woozle Wozzle: Swine Flu does have a few major differences from normal flu. One, it is incredibly contagious, clear cutting entire college dorms and sometimes campuses. And it is active during a season that is not traditionally thought of as Flu season.

    Even when I'm sick my sneezes are no where near that juicy.

    I just got the flumist H1N1 nasal spray. It was free and should do the trick

    @chauncy that billups: By "free", do you mean that your health care paid for it? Because, you see, neither my wife, nor I, has had health care for two years. (I can use the VA, but it's a "free" hospital and not exactly health care.) A free, not "free", H1N1 flu vaccine would be right up our alley.

    @fate47 - Meh.: No, free as in paid for by my tax dollars. Wake county health services in raleigh. The federal govt has bought something like 200 million doses, so it should either be free for you or negligible cost. I recommend you call your local county to see if it's available yet.

    @chauncy that billups: Thank you for the tip. Also, thanks for clearing it up. -_o

    It seems that it was free as in "no extra cost", but also not free as in "already paid for".

    I hate to be this guy, but I always give my friends a hard time for saying this one so I can't leave you exempt.
    It's not a "Hot Water Heater." It's a "Water Heater." If the water was already hot then it wouldn't need a heater. ;)

    Granted, Mythbusters does some awesome stuff, but they really arent scientific in their methods. They never have large sample sizes, and never EVER tell you if the results to their experiments are statistically significant. I demand P values!!

    @natural selection: Yeah, I agree. I love Mythbusters, but it does irk me when they 'bust' a myth and very obviously have not tried (or don't have the capability) to actually try all variations. They don't have to call it plausible, but they also can't call it busted.

    I also still want a better test of the myth that a dogs mouf is cleaner than a humans. And different breeds. I think a bulldogs/bloodhounds mouf is dirtier, what with the jowls.
