I so look forward to Mondays (or late Sunday evenings) with Uncle Jay’s clever observations. Do you suppose the auto makers will make available the yellow (I’m out of a job) wrist bands to unemployed workers if the company goes belly up?

I’m sure if you visit Cuba, you could find a perfectly restored 1959 Pontioldsmoplymouth at a great price. Hey’s here’s a great idea. Let’s turn Gitmo into a retro US automobile factory and outsource those jobs to the Cubans who really know their vintage Detroit cars!

All the way with Uncle Jay! (Sorry Adalai)

Gotta love both Uncle Jay and Jeremy’s analysis. I have a child with peanut allergies and carry an epi-pen everywhere we go but I do not carry a mask. Since we are constantly told to wash our hands just to protect us from regularcold and flu germs why should the swine/Mexican/ whatever it is now flu be any different.

I loved the self correction added into the podcast by the way.

Oh and my 5 year old LOVES Uncle Jay. He watches every week even when he is clueless about why his father and I are laughing at. He always reminds me to go to the site on Mondays. His favorite is still the summary of the year from Christmas 2008.

Good stuff, Uncle Jay.

Here’s my public service announcement for today.
The WHO has confirmed 26 deaths from the dreaded swine flu, including 1 death in the United States.
Peanut allergy, on the other hand, kills approximately 100 Americans every year. So, you are about twice as likely to die from peanut allergy as you are from swine flu.
Further, the run-of-the-mill flu kills about 36,000 Americans per year. So, you are about 692 times more likely to die from the typical flu, than you are to die from the swine flu.

There, can everyone relax now?
