Medical Alert: Patient Zero
WARNING: If you are anywhere in the vicinity of Sunnyvale CA, stay clear of this woman!

Yes, the singer from my band, Heather Taskovics has become fucking patient zero...Well at least as far as the band is concerned.

The story goes something like this: Heather belongs to a fife and drum corps, the Middlesex County Volunteers. Two weeks ago she went on tour with them in Switzerland. So, she comes to practice a week ago sick as a chain smoking dog with emphysema that lives in a nuclear submarine; about which she says " Oh ya a couple of people in the Corp were sick and we all share water bottles so everyone pretty much came down with it." First off, YOU SHARE WATER BOTTLES?!! WTF? Not to mention EWWW!! And then, you have KNOWN infectees among you and you STILL drink from someone else's festering drool covered cesspool of a flask? Correct me if I'm wrong but this strikes me as NOT TO F'ING BRIGHT!

So anyway, Friday afternoon, I notice I have a little bit of a sore throat, no big deal, I figure it's just allergies. No such luck. By late that night, I know it's a cold. So Saturday morning I'm driving to Salisbury to meet my drummer Davie D and I get a call from him. He says "Man, last night I came down with this crazy head cold." I immediately think: OMG this is weird, Dave and I are rarely sick, especially in the Summer and now we BOTH get sick at exactly the same time? Then I thought back to Wednesdays practice and our virus ridden singer....DAMN! I knew I should have worn my heavy metal hazmat suit to practice!!

So last night at practice, my guitarist Steve shows up first. As soon as he walks through the door I say to him " You came down with a cold last Friday night didn't you?" He just looked at me completely stunned like I had just turned into Janet Jackson and said " How the HELL did you know that?!" BAH! She got him too! I KNEW IT!!!

Well folks, this week our little plague spreader is on her way to the Hell Mouth of Sunnyvale CA. Be warned, be safe, stay indoors. That concludes this public service announcement ..........
