Flu'ed up


Oxygen Tank Gauge, originally uploaded by Illuminated.

Greetings, people. Today I'm in Michigan. I had a case in Lansing, and now I'm sitting at the Detroit Airport waiting for my flight home.

I had a funny incident today. I was sitting in the hallway at the office, talking with my client, when the door swung open. A woman wearing a full-on face mask walked through, and she was pulling a tank of oxygen behind her. Two seconds later, her friend came through, also wearing a mask. They looked like firefighters, or people who were working with dangerous fumes... But they couldn't have been either, because they were older ladies in sweatpants.

I, my client, and another attorney who was passing through all looked at each other and said "Swine flu?" It was a funny moment, I think, not because it was a funny comment, because all three of us said it at once. Those poor ladies probably get that all the time, nowadays.
