As I go about my travels, I begin to think there may be merit to Aunt Ann's anti-germ ways. Maybe it's just because I'm in public restrooms more, but I swear 50% of people don't wash their hands after using the restroom. I've started to use the trick of using the paper towel to open the bathroom door when leaving.

I've been using that trick for a long time. Everyone should know it.

Yea, there's a few people at Novell that I always see come out of the stalls and head directly for the door. Anytime I see them in the halls I feel I need to run and wash my hands. Aunt Ann, OTOH, is a special case.

Hey there was the story on National News a week ago where they talked about how 90% of the people in a luxury hotel got sick with a nasty, intestinal type problem, and they said that most of them wouldn't have gotten it if they'd just washed their hands. Precautions are a good thing!

PSU conducted a study to see if putting a sign in the bathroom saying “Please wash hands” would increase the likelihood of men to wash their hands more. They found 42% of men still didn't wash their hands after using public restrooms. So when your male boss motions to shake your hand, hand him your pen.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
