Maybe swine flu hit Chicago?
I live by St Elizabeth and go to church there every weekday while unemployed. Passing through I saw people wear masks and there's a sign in the ER about possible swine flu. Maybe it passed to me and I got it because I had da flu / mucus / clogged lungs 2 weeks ago but I skipped a Dr and trusted God and took some Expectorant and it all passed by.
But check these stat for IL! WHO Declaration of Swine Flu Pandemic Appears Imminent - Forbes.com
Anyone heard of swine flu in Chicago yet?
Maybe I'm impervious to it! |

Swine flu has been in Chicago for months now. We've actually had people die from it. Do you read anything other than City-Data.com?

You're a little behind the curve on this one. There's already been 800+ recorded cases in the city alone, and two Chicagoans have already died from it.

I hardly watch TV news... I mostly do Internet and Web forums and Google News for news... Sometimes a newspaper at the library... Got a Chicago Tribune subscription for Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday.
So living by a hospital I'd might have been exposed to it already! I had the flu before I did the "Bike the Drive!"

Don't worry Jesse, it's like Chicken Pox, once you get it once you have lifetime immunity. It also works with gonorrhea, go ahead and give it a shot.

well, I work at O'Hare and spend a couple of hours a week at T5 (home of Mexicana and Air Mexico airlines among others), so I'm basically at ground zero for a nice little outbreak. hell, I'm/was probably a carrier! in fact, I had some "flu like symptoms" a few months ago (no worries, I was home and on a Sudafed drip!). I also don't live that from from St. E hospital, so here's hoping you don't cross my path!  |

Every crossdresser has had a run in with the clap, my friend. You're probably preaching to the choir. |
