That's ok, your lesbian partner can always give you half her liver, and then Cameron can tell Greg which kennel the dog came from. But remember... we're not friends.... we're colleagues.

Oh...how nice...

I think she got it from Tom Cruise's baby.

*BUMP* for the night crowd.

Mumps outbreaks in the mid-west, Bubonic Plague in California....

What's next?

Plague crops up in the south west (NM and Arizona) every so often. Last I heard several cases a year showed up in NM. The thing about bubonic plague is that you can treat it with common antibiotics like tetracycaline (I knew this even before watching House 😉). What I would be worried about is something like Hanta virus.

Yeah, I thought it was interesting too that the news story broke the same night House was on.

Shoulda listened to Survivorman and cooked the squirrel very thoroughly. He's one smart Canadian.

Meh, it happens every once in a while in developed countries, and it's quite treatable with modern medicine.

Too bad for those mideval pesants tho' :evil:

Yeah, possibly tied to the plague, although I don't think there's been definitive proof one way or the other concerning that. But I could be wrong.

That's what I thought when I saw the article earlier today. I was actually trying to remember what disease she really had (I was really tired last night) and then I saw the article and went "oh yeah."

Yeah, yeah.

I wonder what those Tartar warriors (who launched the plague ridden corpses) would think of a little nuclear artillety? :evil:
