WHY DO WE NEED TO BE IMMUNIZED? THYPHOID FEVER IS NOT SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED!

WEDNESDAY - HUMP DAY - and with a BIG emphasis on "HUMP!"  It's the middle of the week, in the middle of Spring, in the middle of the solar system, in the middle of the Milky Way galaxy (FYI: "Milky Way" was one of our favorite local strippers until she got arrested on a bogus animal abuse charge).  Normally, we'd be celebrating Hump Day on the sofa-sleeper until late afternoon and then cruise Palm Canyon Drive (OH YEAH, "the" Palm Canyon Drive!) for happy hour beers.  BUT NOT THIS HUMP DAY!

We were conscious, showered, dressed and out of the trailer by noon because we had an appointment at the infectious disease clinic in Loma Linda.  Not Kidding here folks, the place is run by the CDC! (Center for Disease Control in case you're acronym challenged!).  Why would we go there, you ask?  Do we have a terrible illness like Toxic Shock Syndrome (we sure hope Kevin doesn't get that again - at least now he uses maxi-pads!), or some sexually transmitted disease like Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (Stacy had that twice just last year and she never sleeps on her stomach!).  Well you'd be WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!

As you know, in just six weeks we'll be leaving on the Riding4Beer World Tour (sponsored by Coor's Light)  that will take us about 27,000 miles circling the globe through China, Siberia, Russia, North Africa, Eastern & Western Europe and back across North America.  As it turns out there are allot of REALLY nasty bugs out there (and not just at strip clubs either!) and we needed inoculations for (NOT KIDDING) Yellow Fever, Hepatitis A, Diphtheria, Tetanus, Typhoid Fever and Encephalitis.  Folks, they stuck so many needles in us we looked like voodoo dolls and now our arms and butts feel like hamburger.  Fortunately we know a GREAT way to get rid of pain (both psychological and physical!) so we're off to the local bar to take care of it right now...

                                               BONUS DAY - SIX PICTURES - OH YEAH! SHARE THE PAIN!

      
We never got a promotion - what's so special about health?             Here's really why we needed the vaccinations!

      
While we were waiting Stacy gave Kevin a rectal exam!                This is why Kevin didn't get a smiley face sticker!

      
Stacy was shocked, but didn't cry - she got a sticker!                             And the final outcome?  MORE DOCUMENTS!

    Well, well, well, glad to see you're practicing preventative medicine. Of course, you must be on pretty friendly terms with the CDC people. Don't think we forgot about the time they quarantined your whole trailer park because of that rash Kevin got on his...you know. Man. All those people cooped up in their trailers, and it turned out he was just breaking in a new thong! Well, make sure you don't go to bed too early - it'll make it real hard to go back to your usual schedule!

    You silly bastards, going to the doctor to get your penicillin shots and rectal exams!  You might as well get it all done and have a lobotomy!  We cannot help but love you two.
