If Jumping to Conclusions was an Olympic event, I think I'd at least get a try-out.

You are probably being named to the first team.

How does anyone ever know where the last person has had his hands before he touched the keyboard of the computer at the Library?

We had one of those sanitizer stations in our High School library for that very same reason. We tried not to think about it too much. This came easier to me than the women who worked there.

Good point! I read an article saying keyboards on public computers are hugely infested with bacteria. I avoid them!

A little bit of bacteria is good for you. Strengthens the immune system.

A little bit of a silly thread is good for you. Strengthens the muscles that cause your eyes to roll.

When you go grocery shopping, do you use the hand-sanitizer to wipe down the handle on the grocery cart? (I see a lot of people do that but I think it's a bad idea.)

Germs are all around us, They are on our skins and in our mouths and on our bottoms. Most of them are not terribly dangerous unless our immune system is compromised fighting something else.

Germy carts and dirty filthy luger is USUALLY much ado about nothing.

We seem to get sick in December when the folks with the "new" germs for this year come and join us.

I think it wise to get flu shots, pneumonia shots and shingles shots at our age, wash our hands now and then and bathe regularly. Avoid folks who are obviously sick, eat a healthy diet, my version of that is different from the OP, see your doctor, follow his advice and enjoy every day we are given.

And enjoy our obsessions, like TOTV.

Wanda, just for you, I finally decided to try to find a link to the study. Here it is; enjoy!
