Heh. I found this little tribe of flying pigs on a blog called
The L Magazine and the blog article (where this picture comes from) talks about swine flu. I'll excerpt part of the archived article
(found here) because the authors' comparison cracked me up. Other than the article giving a smile or two, I thought the pigs in this picture were pretty flashy, sporting their steampunk goggles!
I suppose the good news is that out of 126,000 cases, only 140 people have died, which makes getting swine flu safer than getting in a car. (I'm pretty sure, anyway; I always use the car example because apparently it's statistically more dangerous to get in a car than it is to do just about anything — except maybe guerilla warfare.) — Jonny Diamond (Tuesday - June 9th, 2009 @ 3:07 pm)
