The(o) Wolf avoids the Piggy

Well, swine flu, which to me had more or less been over-hyped, has struck quite close to home. This evening, my hallmate was rushed to presumably the ER by the EMT (Emergency Medical Troupe I believe. Although team would make more sense than troupe in this century. Why did troupe even come to mind?). So, in response to that, I have decided to compose a haiku. An ode to H1N1 as you will, although I am sure you can expect many more swine haikus to come.

Purell at one point
Was the juice of germaphobes
Swine flu has changed that


That's right- at least here at Cornell, Purell has become as much a presence on campus as cheap beer is at a frat party. This is quite fortuitous for me, as people no longer think I'm weird for carrying around a bottle of Purell (though they soon discover that I am weird for a number of other reasons).
