...And a little child shall lead them.



I don´t know where this photo was taken or the identity of this lovely child, but I´ll bet the farm that affectionate little shaver is in fine health to this day.

The pig, however, is most likely by now rendered into bacon and lard.

Which is to say that pigs, "swine flu" notwithstanding, have a whole lot more to fear from we humans than we humans have to fear from pigs.

Actually, there was a case recently that was reported on NPR where some pigs in Alberta, Canada, caught swine flu from a person. Who's the real enemy?

The photo is circulating wildly on the internet. It has been part of three emails to me in the last two days, all in connection with swine flu!
