OT: A smile

I know it's pretty old - but I still had a laugh when I re-read it Why did the chicken cross the road? DR. PHIL:The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that hemust first deal with the problem on "THIS" side of the road before itgoes after the problem on the "OTHER SIDE" of the road. What we needto do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his"CURRENT" problems before adding "NEW" problems. OPRAH:Well I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why hewants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chickenlearn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'mgoing to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across theroad and not live his life like the rest of the chickens. GEORGE W BUSH:We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want toknow if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken iseither against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here. COLIN POWELL:Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite imageof the chicken crossing the road. JOHN KERRY:Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now againstit! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about thechicken's intentions. I am for it now, and will remain against it. MARTHA STEWART:No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had astanding order at the Farmer's Market to sell my eggs when the pricedropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insiderinformation. DR SEUSS:Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad?Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I've not beentold. ERNEST HEMINGWAY:To die in the rain. Alone. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR:I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roadswithout having their motives called into question. GRANDPA:In my day we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebodytold us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good...

It wasn`t that my ARM hurt - in fact I barely felt it. It was just how rotten I felt all week afterwards - never felt even slightly OFF last year. I usually feel a bit fluey for a day or two. The bit that would hurt would be if I had to PAY for it! LOL!

I don't mind her sticking the needle in, that's the easy part, like you it's the swollen arm later on and the 'flu-like symptoms. We don't pay either.

I don`t mind needles - after all, having to stab my finger four times a day (at the moment), I`m used to it! In fact that hurts more than an injection!

Seniors (over 65) are not supposed to pay here in N.B. ..... unfortunately ..... or fortunately I should say ........ I had to pay $20. Dear David got a freebie. Last year when I took my Mother to her so-called doctor for her flu shot, he was going to charge her $20 ... I reminded him in a hurry what the law was here in N.B. - she was 90 then for the love of pete.

It won`t be full blown flu. My doctor says that the injection might not stop you getting it completely, but it won`t be half as bad as it would have been had you not done so! He`s been right so far - I`ve had mild(ish) flu a couple of times despite my flu jabs - and REALLY mild attacks just after a jab. Hope you`re soon feeling better, anyway. I had a bad week last week right after my jab. If you had FULL flu, you wouldn`t even be emailing!!!
