    Are you a mad cow?

    So, we're about to go through another wave of deaths from CJD

    http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Pos...Wave_Of_Deaths

    If I could, I'd find out if I had the mm gene, always better to know in advance if you're at a higher risk of scraping your arse along the floor for the rest of your life, but you can't find out until you're dead, so it'd be a bit late by then.

    Being a bit of a hypochondriac, I've always been terrified of CJD...especially when I think about all the dodgy burger vans I've visited in the eighties after a night out.

    We're all doomed...!

    Well let’s face it we are all going to die of something fatal eventually. I think the word to note is could see a second wave not will, so I’m not going to worry too much having survived the bird flu epidemic that took out half the country.

    I rather have fun living than worry about what might happen Now back to my word games.

    Don't worry, not all the mad cows died first time around, some of them still dance at Cheshunt.

    but the majority stopped coming

    If you read that piece it actually says it hasnt been proven yet (although we all know none of the media would speculate on anything like this would they ) the one thing i do know is the first lot made a whole lot of problems for the animal feed industry that i work in with they early inspections we have to have now
