You were truly blessed to have such a relationship with your father-in-law. That's how it should be. You've written a fitting tribute. Well done, and thanks for sharing. My prayers for you and yours during this time of grief (Romans 12:15).

And here I thought it stood for Embalmed Brains Of Leftist America!

Oh, ye of little faith! ;-)

Your logic is flawless. Now to see if you are a prophet.

Garfield? Is that you?!?

If I may step into the discussion here with some insight into the initial question based on my experience with infectious diseases, I would first want to know the conditions under which they were operating. I strongly suspect they were not clean room Biohazard Level III containment facilities. As such, people being human, it would take only one moment of carelessness for an infectious viral load to be transferred when there is so much available in the environment. That moment of carelessness could have been caused by almost anything: extreme fatigue, loose tape, scratching one's eyeball at the wrong time, etc., etc. Do we need to be concerned about travel? Yes and no. Airline travel is probably one of the most infectious ways to travel as you have all those people essentially confined in a sealed flying petri dish, so that even the common cold has a decent chance of being transferred. Fortunately, for now at least, the outbreak seems to be limited to Africa, but since we can't exactly stand up and ask everyone on our plane if they've been to Africa recently, perhaps holding off on airline travel for awhile is advisable? Regardless, one should do what is possible to enhance one's immune system prior to and for a time after air travel: get enough sleep, don't eat junk food and high sugar foods (yeah, that donut and coffee for breakfast probably isn't the best for you...sorry about that!), etc. I hope that sheds some light on the situation.

Yo, dude! Nothing to see here! Just move on already! ;-)

Their bias is so blatantly obvious, but when neurons have been reduced to spastic twitching from all that medicinal weed, and fried by all that leftist propaganda in university, all too few actually see it. Disgusting just begins to describe the true depravity of the situation.

Hey, man, you wouldn't be dissing users, now would you? Chill out man! Sounds like you need some medicine too! Reality is such a bummer...pops all those bubbles. ;->

Heretic! We'd burn you at the stake, but that would really increase your carbon footprint, contribute even more to globaloney warming, and not make us look very good.... (Right now, I'm so settling on the science that I'm ROFLOL!)

Given that placing "Leftist" and "mind" together creates an excellent oxymoron....

Well, apparently someone's been reading How To Lie With Statistics!

Get with the program! Who yah gonna believe? The Elite-Who-Knows-Better-Than-You, or your lying eyes?!?

Given that "selfies" are just another symptom of our present narcissistic culture....

Don't we wish our children were as obedient!

Not irony...just Doublethink and Newspeak!

This is your brain...this is your brain on drugs...wait! It looks like a liberal brain!

Ah, ha! Racist!

ROFLOL!!!

Stop it! You're killin' me!

Young man, how many times must I tell you that you can't expect these alleged human beings to be able to think logically, which is what the ability to answer your question presumes. Quit that! ;-)

And we're surprised because...? And the real inconsistency? The largest reservoir of HIV/AIDS is the "gay" community, a sought after (by Democrats) demographic.

Obviously you don't have the Democrat dictionary, which basically changes definitions as needed.

Dude indeed! That is so totally freaky that my acrophobia kicked in long before the end of the video!

A brain? A brain?! I need a brain?!??? Yo! Anyone have a brain I can borrow? A brain, a brain, my kingdom for a brain! (The preceding liberal outcry has been a public service announcement brought to you by The Heritage Foundation as proof of one of the primary faults of the Left. You're welcome!)
