I haven't seen this on Fox yet, so it may not be true, but what if the H1N1 virus is just a ploy to make us all stop shaking hands and use the Obama bumb instead? That way, the government would have an easy way to single out those who should be monitored more closely.

I am at the point where I won't touch a doorknob in a public place without a paper towel in my hand. Probably immune to the virus, but it's so easy to pick up some nasty germ. I saw two women doing the "elbow greeting" yesterday. They thought it was funny.

Don't worry, I'm sure FOX news is working hard to turn this into an Obama conspiracy.

15 years ago a male friend said that when he washed his hands in a public restroom, he used the paper towel to open the restroom door as he left and dropped to paper towel on the floor. At that time I thought he was a germaphobe. Now, there are trash cans at the doors so that the towel can go right in. He was ahead of his time.

Maybe! I did the hand bump today. Twice! And I don't think I ever did it before Obama was President. Great, now I will loose sleep trying to figure out what it all means....
