Kens, we had lay-offs here today, too. One of the MDs, on his way out the door, asked me if I wanted his Tabasco sauce and yarmulke.
Needless to say, I took them.

Canada Says Body Bags Sent to Reserves in Flu Kits ‘Offensive’
Sept. 17 (Bloomberg) — Canadian Health Minister Leona
Aglukkaq said it’s “offensive†that aboriginal tribes seeking equipment to prepare for cases of swine flu were sent body bags by the government.
“As Minister of Health and as an aboriginal, I am
offended,†Aglukkaq said in a statement sent by e-mail today
from Winnipeg, Manitoba, the province where tribes received the body bags. “Anyone suggesting that our Government’s solution to H1N1 is body bags is sensationalizing this situation.â€
The error occurred after Aglukkaq told lawmakers Aug. 12 that her department was working closely with aboriginal
communities to prepare them for the virus. At the emergency
hearing called by opposition parties, tribal leaders complained they needed assistance because of concern their members are more vulnerable to the illness.
“We have never, ever prepared for death,†David Harper,
chief of the Garden Hill First Nation in the province of
Manitoba, said in an interview shown today on CTV News. “That really hurt the aboriginal community.â€
Aglukkaq said in the statement her department would hold an inquiry into the incident and make the results public
Snappy, it’s all yours!
