Sorry, I've been kind of lazy...okay, I wouldn't put it like that. But I've been relaxing a bit.
But now that I'm back, I'm not at all happy. In fact, some of this goddamn shit, I wish would go away. Hold on...I've got to breath

Needed a little Sisters of Mercy there. Okay...where to start...I need to get that damn podcasting kit soon, so i can put a voice to these blog entries.
Let's start with the man many of us would like to call the 'tuberculosis terrorist'. He goes by the nom de plume of Andrew Speaker. He's the Atlanta personal injury attorney who- without any goddamned regard fore human life, went to Italy for his wedding and honeymoon, then came back to the states with a little nasty bug called TUBERCULOSIS!
That's bad enough, and it would have been different had he contracted it coming back from overseas, but instead, this son of a bitch knew that he had the organisms in him for five months. FIVE GODDAMNED FUCKING MONTHS! Man! What is wrong with this...oh, man, I. Must. Control. Fist. Of. Death. Must. Not. Kill.....ARRRRRGH! (Darren punches computer screen. Computer screen exploded. Room engulfed in flame. Library evacuated...).
Cough! Cough! Damn! Didn't know that punching library computers would destroy entire libraries...where was I?...oh, yeah. Numbnuts from Atlanta.
Mr. Speaker knew that he had TB for five months. He said that the strain he had was no danger to others (some reports seem to substantiate this, but like Mr. Speaker's earlier diagnoses, it's too early to begin breathing sighs of relief...). What he failed to realize- until too late- is that the strain of TB he had was DRUG RESISTANT!

Didn't know that TB went into women's cleavages. Anyway, this strain of TB was drug resistant, and Speaker was ordered to keep his ass in Europe. But, since he thought he was going to die, he decided instead to fly back to the US, put about seven dozen passengers at risk, and open up potential lawsuits.
All because one, he wanted to make it to his wedding, and two, he wanted to get to the US to get treatment. Whatsmatta, Andy? Can't trust the WHO (World Health Organization). They like the CDC, would've been just as competent.
