The Flu is No Fun

I have been sick for close to two weeks now. Yesterday was the first day I felt good enough to move around without being aware of how sick I felt, which means that I am getting better.
I watched some rousing television though, during this time. Some of the History Channel, Discovery Channel, and the stirring C-SPAN Channel of our representative government in action.
Whenever I watch the floor debates and whatnot, I get the distinct impression that some of these Congresspersons and Senators think that they are stars on a televison program!
Sheesh.
