When you need them you need them, but they've been so overused, they're practically useless now.<br /><br />I keep meaning to stock up on the herbs that comprise "Four Thieves Vinegar" (google the term, you'll see a lot of links) and just use them to ward off Swine Flu, Martian Death Rattle and whatever else is lying in wait for us. I haven't had an antibiotic or any vaccinations for eons now, and I'd like to keep it that way.Tom Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-13861089636352295872009-09-13T23:23:28.881-07:002009-09-13T23:23:28.881-07:00BBC, no offense but I tend to think anyone who men...BBC, no offense but I tend to think anyone who mentions how unconcerned he is about his own mortality as regularly as you do is really more than a little concerned about his own mortality. Not that there's anything particularly wrong with that. ;)S.W.

It's what happens when newspapers try to lay-off their way back to success and broadcast news operations are more concerned with toothpaste-ad grins, snazzy hair and a willingness to be a conduit for infotainment, instead of digging for facts and details the way reporters used to do.<br /><br />I wonder if some creatures have become vectors for MRSA. Maybe some form of mollusk or even birds. Sea water and brackish water subject to tidal flows are usually self cleansing.<br /><br />I will be interested to see if public health people come up with some vector or source for the bug, other than that it's floating around in the water and sand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-83259435225504030432009-09-12T18:07:31.320-07:002009-09-12T18:07:31.320-07:00I spend a fair amount of time at beaches but consi...I spend a fair amount of time at beaches but considering all the things I've done to invite death I guess there isn't much point in my worrying much about that.<br /><br />When young I didn't think I was going to live half as long as I have, maybe the universe just fucking hates me, ha ha ha.<br /><br />Maybe someday these monkeys will figure out that over populating the planet hurts natures ability to heal it. <br /><br />Of course, it's clear that in many ways nature is an idiot also. Mankind will learn how to improve on her work in time. <br /><br />Assuming mankind makes it to that point, but if it does it will be with a lot less monkeys. <br /><br />And I'm fine with that, I don't picture me being here much longer anyway. I start out each day assuming that I may die that day.<br /><br />And I have no problem with taking my own life after passing a point on a path I don't want to be on.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.com
