Is that by themselves or with a partner?
Sorry - don't like BMWs, as they usually drive like maniacs and cut me up. How do you spell a$$hole? BMW.
I have an ancient red Saab 900 which I drive very sedately. She's called Storm. My favourite car was my first one, a green VW Beetle called Florence (after the character in the Magic Roundabout). She had a smiling hippo on the engine cover and a Snoopy in a flying helmet on the passenger door. I had her for 12 years and miss her still.
No, BlueHorse, I work in a clinical microbiology lab. Funny thing is that if we do get a case of typhoid or something of that ilk, you can practically lay bets that the patient is either a food-handler or helps out at a nursery school!
I'm always greatly amused by the notion that you can make your kitchen/bathroom/whole house/entire skin surface sterile - sorry, not possible! The best defence against infection is a working immune system and lots of hand-washing. That's always protected me, and I handle stuff like typhoid, TB and HIV every day.
I didn't read that one on MeFi - as I don't have a vote in the US election, I'm not following it that closely. Yep, sure was a train wreck of a thread, as Miguel said!
This is why I have a post-it on my monitor that says "I will NOT post when I have PMS..."
I was googling to see what black hole MeFi had fallen into and I found a link here.
I ought to confess that I am signed up over there, although I mostly lurk. I'm not shrill but I dabble in pedantry, and I can nit-pick with the best of 'em!
