3 more days, then I'm done with this semester!!!!

I got this week off because of the swine flu and Governor Perry said we don't need to make up for the days...

Go Swine Break '09!

We have someone at my college that supposedly has a "probable" case of swine flu, I mean H1N1, but the symptoms are just like any other flu, so who knows?

I wonder what happened to H5N1? That's probably what'll happen to H1N1.

H5N1 only truly is a problem for the asian countries. Public Health Officials feel that north america is pretty immune from the bird flu aka avian flu. Since most of the deaths with a small exception have died in china or indonesia. Those who were the exceptions traveled to either country before dying.

H1N1 is more of an odd ball. the original one in 1918 aka spanish flu was widely different from the russian and hong kong versions that appear between 1959-1979. And the current one is just a more mutated version than the last two. This is one reason right now why many pharm. companies are refusing to put the vaccine out there. That and the fort dixon,nj issue (health officials and children were vaccined during that outbreak and a large portion of them ended up becoming paralysized from the vaccine).

At the current rate they suspect the swine flu will be gone before july 4th. why then? well mainly because after the SARS scare back in 2003, most public health agencies in america are a BIT better at weeding out hypochondrias....

Thanks for the really-extended commentary on a somewhat rhetorical question.

Well, well. Looks like there was finally a wee bit of information revealed about SC:C. Too bad I won't be able to play it.

Uncharted 2 should cheer you up when it comes out.

I'm sure it will. I still think that adding competitive multiplayer to it is a really bad idea. I really hope it works out, though.

lol check out the music @ 0:30

Aw, man. I'm gonna miss Sam's bum-look from prototype SCC. Bummer.

As long as they didn't take developers off of the single player and move them to multiplayer, I think it should work out fine. I played around 5 rounds of the multiplayer on the beta, and it's a lot of fun.

Lucky. My PS3 is broken. Gonna miss out on the beta, unfortunately. :[

Wow, that sucks... What happened to it?

I'm guessing it overheated after two and a half years of using it. Thank goodness I have warranty.

Well thank God for that warranty. What games had you been playing on your PS3? I need to get more, I've only bought 2 so far. (Metal Gear Solid 4 and inFamous, although I'll probably be picking up the original Uncharted and playing it through again before the second one is out. )

You don't have LittleBigPlanet?!

That is like the most innovative game I've ever played. lol You should definitely pick that one up. :]

No, I don't have LittleBigPlanet. It just didn't look like the type of game that I'd be interested in...There's not a demo, is there?

No. It is a bit of a kid's game, but you can do pretty much anything in it. lol

Well, can't think of another game you might like. Perhaps Ratchet & Clank? They're making a sequel to that as well.

I could like it...I just wish they had a demo so I could find out.

I've really enjoyed the Ratchet & Clank games that I've played, I had actually been thinking about getting the one on PS3.
