watching some old epis of friends while balancing the checkbook & doing some laundry, and you remember ross's first wife, the lesbian? well, this epi is like the first or second show, and it's a different actress than it was later. weird, huh? yeah.

hey - did you hear what joe biden said about traveling during these swine flu days? he said - «don't». heh. he said he'd recommend to his family to stay off airplanes and subways b/c one sneeze & you're all immediately infected. joe. joe. joe. [insert head shaking] you know what's up with joe, really? joe's just old. joe's your old uncle who just doesn't have a clue but is damn sure of where he stands anyway.

speaking of the swine flu, you realize it's okay to eat pork, right? i mean, you're not going to get swine flu from eating swine. now - if you keep kosher & eat pork, you'll probably go to hell, but not from swine flu.
