If looks could kill: This cute baby sloth in a beanie hat might. |
As if the protesting idiots chanting "Death to Israel!" (and indirectly to American Jews) at colleges and universities around the country -- most notably at Cornell where physical damage has already been done to campus buildings and school just started -- isn't enough to depress the hell out of you, you can now worry about a brand new disease just spotted in Florida called "sloth fever." It causes the usual horrors like nausea, vomiting, fever, chills, headaches and possibly death.
And in case you think, "Hey I am nowhere near any sloths," let me educate you: You don't have to be anywhere near a sloth to get it, as the disease is transmitted by a bite from a midge, which is defined as "any small fly," and the ever-mischievous mosquito.
Uh-oh, there's a small fly in my kitchen right now. Who knows, maybe he's just returned from Florida and is hungry after that long flight. I'm getting out of here. Just wanted to alert you all.
