Human to Human Bird Flu Reported

Bloomberg.com: Asia Indonesian health officials are investigating seven human bird flu cases where the patients all seem to be linked to each other. It should be noted that this outbreak is still under investigation. However, if the human to human bird flu has evolved it is cause for alarm because of the anticipated inability of health officials to isolate the disease and the likelihood of disease mutation. Have you made preparations for a bird flu outbreak or other emergency by stocking up (at least moderately) with the necessities to support your family? If it isn't the bird flu, it isn't too far-fetched to imagine that any of us may experience at minimum brief power and water outages from this year's hurricane season. If you live along the cost (hint...hint to my brother on the NJ coast) are you prepared by obtaining supplies to shore up home such as plywood and duct tape?

Well, you will probably be found with the thousands of other people form NJ in line at home depot as hurricane William (William is on this year's list) comes rushing towards you.

In case you didn't know, Northeast hurricanes move dramatically faster than southern hurricanes.

I had somewhat of a brainstorm tonight: we can drill holes in the plywood (small) to capture video footage.
