Dr. Kwan-Gett was my daughter's pediatrician before going to work for the county. We was great-- seems like public service is agreeing with him.

A few people had lice in the 'club' scene, not really an epidemic cause I think it was barely a handful of people.

Are we sure those are lice? They look like bed bugs.

Well, I know that the Dept. of Public Health doesn't have a color-coded system for communicable diseases, but dammit, they should!

Am I the only one who starts scratching my head whenever people start talking about lice?

It's good to see the old-fashioned urban legend spreading techniques are still around, after most of the action moved to email eons ago. Let me know if you see any flyers warning about the LSD on Disney stamps.

Messing with people's minds is not a joke.

It's like tagging, only less polite.
