When jokes about magnetic bird poo just isn't funny anymore

Maybe I should just stop complaining. Oh, my head hurts, my nose is bleeding, I'm seeking employment at the IRS... Ooops... After all, it could have been worse. I could have been a bird with the bird flu or a cow with CJD or a bird with CJD or a cow with bird flu. It seems, you can never be quite sure anymore. Just the other day they said on tv that its ok to let your dogs and cats out because bird flu had never transferred to a cat or a dog before. Then, yesterday they found an infected cat, so now it is only safe to let your dog out. Until they find an infected dog somewhere. What is precaution anyway? I suggest we put bird diapers on all birds.
