It's Flu Season

In Kent a 7-year old girl died from the flu, and Seattle's Bishop Blanchett High School closed after 300 of the 1000 students stayed home sick on Wednesday. It's been working it's way through the Pierce County schools, and in my own district there are some classes that have had 50% absentee rates.

My student teacher swears by Airborne; I'm one of those lucky bastards who can usually shake any illness with a good night's sleep.


Update: The flu is also hitting Yakima along with Edmonds and Snohomish County.

Regarding Airborne, give this a try.

then read the box for yourself and see if it is the truth.

If you read Sherman's blog with Firefox, it should be OK. Unless you have an Apple in which case you have the font size set too high. Just hit apple and minus or apple,shift,minus and it will revert to the correct layout.
