Big books and bad bugs
The intrepid Maxwell (Smart) used to say “Missed me by that much!”. Pretty much how I feel.
Today’s newspaper carried the story that a local food dealer had withdrawn a number of their products from the supermarket chain where I shop. Something about possible contamination from a variety of bacteria, Listeria. To which I reply “OMG”, which is also my reaction to OGM. A pathogen that cannot be detected by any of my working senses, and that might require up to a month before there is any manifestation (hence the “OMG”). I might get sick, yet. I have a good feeling about this one, though. While I would normally have piled the couscous and bean salad onto my plate, I think I skipped it, last time around.
