My advice is quit being paranoid and live your life. You have a better chance of getting ran over by a swift driver in the truck stop by accident then you do someone killing you on purpose, so are you gonna also stop walking across the T/S parking lot too?
Life is too short to be afraid of things. I know people that do every possible thing to prevent getting a cold or flu, and they are the ones that seem to get it every year, where I rarely even wash my hands and I never get sick!
I know people that refuse to eat at a T/S buffet, or even some that even refuse to eat at a restaurant period because they are so scared of sanitation issues, hell screw that, if that food looks good I am gonna eat it!
I wonder how some of these germ freaks / paranoids would handle life a few hundred years ago, before the invention of lysol, refrigerators, supermarkets, hermetically sealed containers, etc etc etc.

As I sit looking all around,
Confusion and uncertainty is all I found.
The answers are there,
But I do not know where.
Optimistic and hopeful dreams,
Are all I have so it seems.
The future I do not know,
So all I can do is take it slow.
But I do know it will work out,
So I wait and watch without a doubt.

x2 seems as though the germ freaks are the ones that are always sick. those that live life and build up an immune system rarely get sick.

thankfully whenever i got sick, i'd let whatever i had kick my ass. five days later, whatever i had would be gone like i had never been sick. my cousin caught something that was pretty brutal. there was a swine flu scare from his girlfriend. my aunt was telling me that i HAD to stay indoors to avoid infecting everybody else. i brushed that off and continued with my normal routine. my cousin lost 10lbs from what he had. it wasn't swine flu. his girlfriend became sick. funny thing is, i never caught it. my immune system freaking rocks!
i'm a serial thrilla.

their live videos are so much better than the music videos. not very many bands can carry that amount of energy. that live performance of "smack my b--ch up" was done at moscow's red square. they also did it for FREE.
