Scary.

They are everywhere, we just don't see them. The only time you do see them is when the population is burgeoning. Then is you see one you can bet there are hundreds in the immediate area.

I see them often in the subways and sometimes on the streets. I read a related article this morning...most disturbing.

Similar to the theory that monkeys can carry the disease. So now we need to stop eating monkeys AND rats.

But we don't have monkeys scurrying everywhere like rats.

RATS!!!

LMFAO Tulsa. Like you could stop eating monkeys for 2 days. How do you think you caught this virus? You admitted that here in a thread that you're a frequent monkey eater -- the cause of your hcv transmission. My infection was immaculate as a side note.

wasn't it the fleas on rats that carried the black plague?

Oh thank goodness!

The fleas die when you singe the hair off.

Ernie, Is eating a monkey similar to having hot monkey sex? :-)

One day a lion was walking around the jungle sad and lonely, when he spotted a monkey up in a tree.
He yelled up to the monkey to come down and play, but the monkey was too scared.

So the lion asked the monkey what he could do to make him feel comfortable enough to come down.
The monkey said, "If you tie yourself up I'll come down." So the lion ties himself up, but as the monkey
came down he started shaking.

The lion said, "Hey, monkey, you don't have to be scared! I'm not going to eat you; I'm tied up real tight."

"I know," said the monkey. "That's not why I'm shaking."

"So why are you shaking?" asked the lion.

"Well," said the monkey, "it's just that I've never had sex with a lion before."

I love ratatouille. wonder if that's how i got HCV? I think l next time someone asks me how i got i will say from eating ratatouille.

ECC - the Immaculate Infection?

I have never had hot sex with a monkey just sex with dirty little monkeys.

Yes Tulsa, it was an immaculate infection. I did everything perfectly to catch HCV.

I would not eat monkey meat either. Not for fear of transmission but fear of expulsion. I'm sure I would want to vomit.
