Health officials are now telling people to stop greeting one another by shaking hands or kissing on the cheek, or anywhere else for that matter.
So the question of the day is, have you stopped shaking hands in light of the swine flu virus?
And remember, if they’re from the middle east and you do shake hands, don’t offer the left hand.

Among Muslims, the left hand is reserved for bodily hygiene and considered unclean. Thus, the right hand should be used for eating. Shaking hands or handing over an item with one’s left hand is an insult
In other words, many don’t use toilet paper.

Regarding your Muslim comment, does that now make sense/explain why they cut off the right hand of someone caught thieving?
Sounds about right to me (no pun intended).
Someone once said a black man will be president when pigs fly………100 days into his presidency, swine flu!
