With all of the talk about a possible Swine Flu pandemic swirling around, and fear and misinfomation running rampant, I figured I would try to soothe some of the concerns by explaining what it is and putting it into perspective. Swine flu is essentially identical to the regular flu and is only considered dangerous if left untreated. It's effects are temporary, and quite honestly not that bad. In fact I can think of several thing that are way worse than having the Swine Flu. Here are my top 5...

5. Living in fear of the Swine Flu for the last 10 years. Ok, so maybe MJ knew something we didn't when he started sporting the surgical masks. However... 10 years is a long ass time to walk around like this just in case something happens.

4. Being Flavor Flav's stylist. I'm not sure he even has one, but if he does I would advise them to never put in on their resume.

3. Being this guy's choreographer. I know I made fun of this guy and the video before.....but I can't help it. Seriously wtf is he doing in the video? It's definietly not dancing.

2. Listening to demos submitted to So Icey Entertainment. When the cash cows for your label are Gucci Mane and OJ Da Juiceman, I shudder to think what the artists that were rejected by them sound like.

1. Being labeled a pirate. Getting the Somali pirate treatment is bad. The illegal download treatment evidently is not that far behind.

Three founders and one patron of The Pirate Bay were sentenced to one year in jail and also ordered to pay $3.6 million in damages

$7,000 settlement in NY family's music piracy case.
