...In other parts of the state, at least two small school districts have closed this week because of absences due to flu-like illness. Roff schools in Pontotoc County will close Wednesday and Haworth schools in McCurtain County closed at noon Monday. Both may reopen early next week, officials said...

McCurtain county is adjacent to where the Honobia BF Festival is to be held and Pontotoc county is ~60 miles west of there.

Just got off the phone with Leslie at the main office (Poteau) of the LeFlore county Health Department (918) 647-8601.

She stated the H1N1 (Swine Flu) has been reported in every school in LeFlore county with the Spiro school principal reporting 100 students out as of today.  Spiro is a town of 2,316 residents http://www.city-data.com/housing/houses-Spiro-Oklahoma.html so 100 kids out is rather significant.

Looks like my bear hunting trip (Octavia) may be cancelled.

Telahnay's G'son,

You think that if Bigfoot got infected with the Swine Flu that he might show up at Hanobia?
