Take it with humor!
I received today these photos from an unknow, possibly Hungarian correspondent: they show a presumably homeless woman kissing and caressing some pigeons on the Kossuth Square, before the building of the Hungarian Parliament. Their message, I presume is this: birdflu may be hazardous to your health if you are crazy ... But, of course being crazy is a precondition for kissing pigeons - or any other species of birds - these days. (Otherwise I read somewhere that pigeons are generally not hit by the virus of the Avian Influenza.)
So better cheer up and don't kiss your - or for that matter - others' birds however close they might be to your heart.
