Something's askew:

From today's NYT:

A look a human deaths from bird flu, by country, according to the World Health Organization: There have been 63 deaths worldwide since late 2003, the U.N. agency says.

--Vietnam: 41 deaths

--Thailand: 13 deaths

--Indonesia: 5 deaths

--Cambodia: 4 deaths


And the stats on AIDS: http://www.avert.org/worldstats.htm

So Bush wants to spend $7 billion on bird flu and cut funding for AIDS research (and please don't talk to him about condoms and safe-sex education).

>>On the upside....I was having lunch the other day and at the next table two gentlemen were in earnest conversation. When the manager asked them how they were the one fellow said, "You can do one thing for us," when the manager asked what he could do for them, the reply was, "Vote for a Democratic." I couldn't help but smile.<<

That made my day, Alrescate!

I wish I could proof read!

I meant "Vote Democrat" not "Vote for a Democratic."

I never even noticed the error...

That still made my day, believe me! :-)
