Randomness

Alright so it has been a while since I last posted anything and I really don't have anything to say which is bad so I will just state a few random things.

First this Swine Flu thing. At least in most Western countries I don't think that we have anything to worry about. It seems to be acting like a normal flu virus so as long as you do you standard things to avoid getting the flu and if you do get it stay away from people I think you should be fine. The problem is going to come in countries that don't have clean water, like Mexico, and have a poor health system in general, like Mexico. This is why there were so many deaths in Mexico to start with whereas the US seem to be able to keep infections to a minimum and everybody is still alive, knock on wood. Now we just have to hope we can either all go get it on purpose now, hope they get a vacine for it soon, and/or hope it doesn't mutate too much

Next VT football. Kind of a split weekend for VT. First was the spring game on Saturday and all reports indicate that our offense actually looked like they might put points up on the board. Next came the draft. There was only one Hokie taken and that was Victor "Macho" Harris and he fell to the 7th round 21st pick of the round to Philly. It should say something about how young VT was that there were only a handful of players even in the draft, and four more of them (including Sean Glennon who saw that comming), have signed contracts as free agents.

Final thing for this random post is this that I came across on Conservapedia:

Barack Obama takes status worship to new
heights: yesterday his Air Force One, escorted by
a U.S. fighter jet, violated the no-fly-zone over lower Manhattan,

Yes I know it is Conservapedia and I know that what happened with the Air Force 747 that the president rides in, it is only Air Force One when he is in it and I don't know any other name for it, was wrong and scared a lot of people and I understand why, I am not even from New York and I still look up everytime I hear a plane, but it wasn't his call to do it so how is it his fault? They make it seem like he was the one who came up with the idea and failed to notify anyone, this is wrong even the article they cite at the end of the full post says that.

Sorry I just felt I needed to post something in case people actually look at my blog.
