The Swine Flu Outbreak / Nascar race crash / DPHH

G'day Everyone.

There is a lot of fear and concern that a bird-like flu has finally arrived in the USA. For as long as 8 years, the Bush administration was concerned that Avian flu would hit the USA during his term of being president. Unfortunately, Avian flu didn't hit.

But seriously and unfortunately, we were blinded by another type of flu that is now hitting across the nation. Mexico became the center of the world this month when Swine Flu became an outbreak that has spread around and beyond Mexico.

So what is swine flu? Here is the info from Webmed.com : http://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/news/20090421/swine-flu-faq
You may want to stay updated of what's going on via http://www.cnn.com/ for the latest info about the swine flu and why it's a national emergency. Get checked up with your doctor. While there's no cure for swine flu, it can be treated.

While swine flu is important, I was way disappointed in Nascar Races yesterday.

While I was watching the talladega race, it was a horrible horrible moment in the lives of nascar fans and drivers. Victory lane shouldn't have been celebrated at all! I condemn Brad Keselowski for what he did to Carl Edwards. He ought to be arrested and banned from NASCAR for reckless driving! In fact, I encourage all NASCAR FANS to call for it. See the crash vids at www.nascar.com/news . Expect to hear some lawyers coming around and suing Nascar and the drivers of this race. Costly changes will come indeed. It is a black eye day on Nascar. NASCAR should have stopped the events going on while it was an emergency among the fans in the stands. Especially after a major crash like that.

So, as the month of April is nearing the end and the first friday of the month May? If you are ready to party for Cino de Mayo, then check out the www.dphh.com for the nearest Deaf Professionals Happy Hour event in your city. I do believe that Gallaudet University students will pack the Washington, DC DPHH event as the final exams are just about to happen and the seniors of the Class 2009 will be in a good mood to party in a responsible way.

Till next post, enjoy the week! Semper FI!
