Before you start writing the script for Babe III: The Porcine Apocolypse, let's everyone take a deep breath (though not too deep of a breath if you're standing next to someone who is sneezing and/or smells like bacon) and relax. I'm talking to you VP Biden. Forget all that bull the CDC and WHO are serving up. There's only one definitive Swine Flu site you need to check out. Do I Have Swine Flu?

Best first line ever, Echo..or at least today..
I can always count on you for the ego inflation Cindy. Thanks!
By the way, I hear 'Mouche will be out of town this weekend...
Funny you should mention that, Echo...
Would you be willing to come on over and babysit so I can go out for the afternoon with my sister? It would be my 4 kids plus her 2. And they are all perfect angels. :)
I wouldn't ask this of just anyone..you seem trust-worthy, though..
No pressure, ya know, only if you don't have anything else going on. Let me know!
I'd love to see those twitter comments--do it!!!
S.O., I was thinking the same thing..I'd imagine the twitter comments would go something like this.."Help, I'm in the 7th circle of Hell!" or "I've scheduled the vasectomy for Monday afternoon.."..
I was thinking Monday morning...
but one of the best babysitters I had as a kid was a guy--because he built really cool Lego stuff.
Thanks for the offer Cindy, but I have to wash my hair ... all weekend long. Also, I'm allergic to children.
Then how do you deal with the YBNBY crew? (myself included)
Damn Echo, you don't have that much hair. As far as the allergy thing..I have pills for that.. Interested?
She's been with the same dude for 20 years and she's on the pill. That's a pretty clean deal, Echo.
Also, I have a fear of traveling over water. Since you live in New Jersey, it'll be mentally crippling for me to even attempt a Hudson River crossing. (For those smart-asses out there who'll point out that I currently live on the ISLAND of Manhattan, you'll know that I waited until the waters froze and walked to the city and I've been here ever since.) So as much as it sounds like an amazing time babysitting 6 kids all weekend, I'll have to pass.
How did you get to Amsterdam?

Speaking on behalf of the YBNBY readers who were spellbound by your overseas adventures, I feel so betrayed...
Just one of the many disappointments I've caused throughout my illustrious blogging career. You should have been around when I told everyone I wasn't really George Clooney.
You will be missing out on an amazing time, Echo. Now I'll have to hire the 12 year-old babysitter and leave lots of duct tape out for her. Jeez, I was even going to pay you $5/hour. :(
Tim, for the record, the hubster and I have been married 13 years this August and I am not on the pill..why do you think we have 4 kids? "Oops..here comes another one..".. :) BTW, Scara is going to kill me when he reads all of this..!
Alright, one meal for six children prepared and served..How many more to go? Echowood, I'm getting desperate.. I am now willing to pay $7.50/hour for babysitting.. and all the cake you can eat.
