I have a moderately sore left arm from getting the shot on Wednesday. In fairness, it's an "attenuated" form of the virus, meaning theoretically too weak to give you the real thing. However, the logic has always bugged me. Read Gina Kolata's book "Flu" if you really wanna get scared about the disease. Ummm….now I feel very safe indeed.

Yeah, Ashcroft is insane, but Osama needs the life bombed out of him and we have W to thank for getting us close to that goal..

She hates flu shots. But, she highly recommends that others get them...........They make me so sick it's not worth it. And, Linkman is right–––––––the bug in the shot is "attenuated" or reduced in virulence, severity, or vitality . The swine flu shot did have some disasterous results in the 80's (people were paralyzed) but this one, so far, is proving safe for human injection to this date. Theothercheek never gets flu shots.

Osama doesn't need to be bombed... he needs to be dragged out, broadcast all over Al–Jazeera how he whined & begged for his life... and then bombed. Or else we're going to deal with a thousand more little Osamas years from now.

They *give* you the flu because they can't afford to buy presents for *everyone.* This is a gift, goddam it! And *you* pay for it! Not getting anything else for Christmas? Here, have this flu. Merry Christmas! It's a goddam charitable event and you're trashing it! Take it all back, Loki cheeseball. Sheesh, I have to explain everything medical around here.
