New, at El Jefe's Mexican Diner: Swine Salsa

We had our first confirmed death in Texas today from the "Hiney" flu (it was pointed out to me that H1N1 looks like "Hini"). No need to be alarmed, right? Since the first day of the reported flu strain that is popping up around the nation and now other countries such as Denmark, there has been a drop off of reports dealing with its origin. No one is saying the "Mexican" flu strain, or the "Mexican" swine flu anymore. It lasted for about 2 days. Now, it called the H1N1, or the swine flu. Next it will be called Miss Piggy, as long as it is not called "Mexican". So I will refer to the "H1N1" flu as the Mexican Swine Flu from here on out. (M.S.F.)

Just wash your hands. That is what the CDC told us. We have been sick in Fresno since we moved here. I don't know if it's the dirty air in the Valley or what. It has been a ruthless battle with the ick of all kinds. My kids lately are sponges for any strain of any sickness,  or so it seems.  So I am a bit over-cautious about this. 

President Obama asked America to "not be alarmed". The rest of the world sure seems alarmed. The European union shut their doors. You can't even fly to or from Mexico.  Total isolation. China has some poor infected soul under lock and key, peering out of a window like he is in a prison camp. What do we get in the way of pre-emptive containment? 

"WASH YOUR HANDS", and practice good personal hygiene. Have you seen the people at the DMV? Have you seen the cave-dwellers walking around like infected, convulsive zombies in some horror movie, spewing their germs on you with coughs and sneezes? Not to mention the absence of any hand wipes or sanitizers in the DMV. Practice personal hygiene!? Sometimes, government, you need to act on behalf of our nations losers, rejects, and vagrants of society. I can't believe of all the times in my life when I absolutely HAD to go to the DMV, it was during a really bad sick season and the whole flu thing. Figures.  I'm wearing a mask next time, and I don't care what anyone thinks.

Wash your hands. When I heard that, I thought, wow, they really have our best interest at heart don't they? What a sham. It goes back to this disease called political correctness. No one wants to offend the nation of MEXICO. It's not our fault that's where it originated from. That fact doesn't turn us into discrimantory hate-mongers. It's just a simple FACT. We shouldn't change the name of something just because it might offend the illegals. Well, things would probably be different if the national census wasn't coming up and President Obama wasn't planning on granting amnesty to 25 million illegal aliens.  Anyway...

Mexico themselves understand the severity of the M.S.F. They shut down hundreds of schools, urged people to not include themselves in public get-togethers. They even shut down over 100 soccer games. If any of you know about Mexico and soccer, then you understand, that was a HUGE deal. Goaaaalllllllllllllllllll!!!!

Everyone in the free world understands that the first step  to an epidimiological problem is containment, except (apparently), the United States of America.  The DHS said that they are practicing "passive surveilance" whatever that means. According to DHS it means that they are asking people if they are sick. That's it!? A person can lie, or not even know they are sick, and then they are allowed into our country. I understand they are being a bit more serious about it now, but c'mon. It took several cases popping up, and the public in a uproar about "passive surveilance" to get it going.
