stupid health related news

• In the dumbshit dept, someone I’ve never heard of, from a show I’ve never heard of…claims being around smaller people caused her bulimia.

Wow. If that’s is true, then I guess “mental illness”can finally be taken off the table (no pun intended) as being the cause of eating disorders; since I don’t think either are caused by virus, bacteria or prion.

• hmmmm didn’t know there was a “depression gene”-well anyway, I’m  glad I didn’t jump on that bandwagon, since there’s not one.

• No foolin. Lozenges don’t harm your nose (unless you are crushing & snorting them-that would probably hurt).

I have a problem with the FDA crapping all over Zicam.  I use the swabs,(religiously, as I do Purell) because they work. I’ve put lots of stuff up my nose for years and my sense of smell is working just fine. Perhaps the FDA should stick to …oh never mind, just hoping for safe dog food seems like a stretch for them.

• HOW in THE hell can any kid, legal or not, be uninsured?  I’m paying top dollar for my smokes to insure all who are 30 and under and still live at home. WTF?

• rut-roh  Don’t sign up for that swine flu shot just yet, there’s a new strain.

Had more stuff; but “surprise” another storm is coming. Got to go.
