Remember, a few generations back you weren't supposed to bathe in the winter.Marilynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06984777868047304830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371096836760304449.post-78828780713267413082009-01-05T20:01:00.000-08:002009-01-05T20:01:00.000-08:00Because "flu" was already taken? :)<BR/><BR/>I don't even know how to begin answering that question.Marilynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06984777868047304830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371096836760304449.post-19055022725533175962009-01-05T18:12:00.000-08:002009-01-05T18:12:00.000-08:00I LOVE the plush Rhinovirus toys.<BR/>They're so cute. :)<BR/><BR/>I also love listening to Science Friday on NPR! I missed it last week, though, because my schedule was different than usual.<BR/><BR/>Question: Why do we call it a "Cold"?Jannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04827716404911856909noreply@blogger.com
