NO SUPER FLU!!! It turns out to be simply bronchitis (sp). I caught the
shit while in West Texas just before Christmas. 



It's turns out to be a mild bronchitis  (sp). I cought the shit while 
in West Texas  before Christmas.  It makes you cough like hell for a
couple of days but it's gone in a week or so. Pretty mild bug in my 
opionion. It's been a very cold and wet fall and winter in Texas this
year.
