Joel Klebanoff: Stuff & Nonsense

To worry is to be. To be is to worry.

Swine Flu Warning

I’m a very public-spirited sort of a guy. Therefore, at a time when the World Health Organization (WHO) has already raised the swine flu pandemic threat level to five on it’s six-point scale, I feel the need to interrupt my normal blogging to pass this unpaid public service announcement along to my loyal reader(s):

Whatever goes on in the privacy of your own home is your own business. I’m not here to judge. However, until the threat of swine flu has passed, do not have sex with pigs; particularly, but not exclusively, Mexican pigs.

If the urge to have sex with swine is too strong for you to control, be sure to use a condom. And wash your hands (and other body parts) thoroughly afterward. Stay protected. Stay safe.

For those women who think all men are pigs, maybe you’d better stay celibate for the next little while.

    This is great! I thought I was about to read a real warning. I guess then I have to stay away from men. LOL! Happy day to you!

    • rosilie: Women have been staying away from me all my life. It’s not easy being me.

      Chris: Very funny. Unfortunately, I couldn’t have put it better myself.

      Jen: My understanding is that they haven’t definitively found the source. And while they are calling it “swine flu” (although I just read that WHO is going to start calling it by its scientific name), there is also some human virus mixed in there. So, I have to ask, can you prove it’s not your fault?

  2. Chris says:

    Or, to boil it down to it’s shortest possible form, “No Porking”.

  3. Jen says:

    it’s official it is not my fault.

  4. Rebecca says:

    Only factory-farmed pigs. Pastured pigs are safe…even Mexican ones…

    You have a really weird sense of humor…love it!

    Please please please – do NOT show this to my wife.

  6. crap. I wish I’d read this yesterday.

    :)

    btw, I voted for you in the Blogger’s Choice awards.

    • Margaret: Sorry about not getting this warning out earlier. By the way, should the occasion arise in the future, need I warn you about any other barnyard or wild animals? Or are you only partial to swine?

      Thanks for the vote!

    Absolutely! Stay away from goats and sheep too. I hear they’re favorites in certain parts of the country. Your country too.

  8. Into beavers, eh? Any risk of STDs?

    • Doctor Faustroll: Protection to reduce the risk is advisable. You also have to be careful that they don’t gnaw on anything you have that might be woody. They like to do that, you know.

    I’m glad pigs can’t read. Particularly Mexican pigs. This warning could have ruined my weekend plans.
