I think that the CDC should use my blog stats to plot the transmission of the 24-hour stomach bug around the world. My very first post ever (well, the one right after the one where I say, "Is this thing on?") was a humorous piece about what it's like when someone in the family is puking all day. It remains my most-visited blog post of all time, although I'm sure that all those people who are retching their guts out are wishing for a little more constructive advice than I offer.
In the last 6 hours alone, I've had Googlers find that post from England, Scotland, Vermont, and Hawaii.
(While we're on the subject, I also hope that Tonya and JDub have concluded their own Barfestival.)
We're on the mend, but MY GOD it's taken a while to recover! The "main event" was just 24 (l-o-n-g) hours, but for the 48 since then our bodies are all WTF? (It even hurt to chuckle at your post...)

So I went back to read that original post, and noodled around until I found the one on typos in menus. You forgot my "favorite": Ceasar Salad. I am sure it far outstrips "prosciutto" in frequency. I hope no one has actually been barfing recently at your house -- it was a huge relief when my kids -- who are phenomenally healthy -- could reliably hit the basin.
