The Beginning....

The Beginning....
When William Least Heat-Moon toured the country many years ago, his steed, if you will, was a van that he named Ghost Dancing. His journey of America was 13,000 miles. His book is Blue Highways, A Journey Into America. My steed will be a Subaru WRX (traded for an XV Crosstrek). My travels will be, what in the past were called, the blue highways of Virginia. Years ago, maps showed secondary roads in blue. Yes, the ones less traveled.

Don't Be Stupid! Get Your Kids Vaccinated!

Measles
RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION: The Code of Virginia allows a child an exemption from receiving immunizations required for school attendance if the student or the student’s parent/guardian submits an affidavit to the school’s admitting official stating that the administration of immunizing agents conflicts with the student’s religious tenets or practices. Any student entering school must submit this affidavit on a CERTIFICATE OF RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION (Form CRE-1), which may be obtained at any local health department, school division superintendent’s office or local department of social services. Ref. Code of Virginia § 22.1-271.2, C (i).

Sadly, Virginia, as do many states, allow parents to skip vaccinations for religious reasonsTerrific. 

You believe in myths and superstitions and therefor it's OK to say no to vaccinations. Does your Bible actually tell you to not use vaccinations? Hmmm, did ole God just whisper in your ear? How do you religious people come up with this crap. Folks, it's 2015 for cryin' out loud. How long are you going to allow yourselves to be shackled by what, at best, are not well-written or imaginative doggone fairy tales!

Jenny McCarthy...Yes, borrowed  from Playboy. Hmmm... I'm not exactly sure why this is relevant. Well, I do mention  her name.  OK, I'll blame this on Mark!


Who do you rely on for medical advice? Go to your chiropractor? Great! Your naturopath? Homeopath? Oh, maybe your astrologer? Or, maybe you rely on Jenny McCarthy? Suzanne Somers? Dr. Oz? or Oprah?

Sometimes, there's just no fixing stupid.

EDIT: I asked my pal, Mark, to look at this before I posted. He said, It's OK, just make Jenny McCarthy's photo larger... OK, Mark. It's larger.

Mark, also provided this link about how vaccines cause autism.

BTW, if I thought my mom could see this, I wouldn't have that awful photo or the above link.....

EDIT: January 30, 2015

 Now over 90 cases of measles reported. Some pediatricians have stopped seeing children who haven't been vaccinated.

Here's an article from CBS news.

Another article from MIC.COM. Please read.

Larry Wilmore,  on Jenny McCarthy.

EDIT: January 31, 2015    Just watched a segment on CNN. Two MDs. One for vaccinations and the other saying we don't need them. Just let the kids get measles. This so-called doctor mentioned chiropractic. What the hell is going on out here????? Chiropractic!!!

This doctor  will no longer treat children who aren't vaccinated.
