CES 2007: We got SARS photo
     Old People

As seen on NextLust:

At first I thought it was just me and my late night, non-sleeping, hard-partying ways, but today as people started asking me if I was sick, I am now under the belief that someone at CES tried to kill me with their SARS or whatever other disease they brought to Vegas. Besides myself and some members of Destructoid, it seems Gizmodo caught the plague as well. Anyone else that got sick?

Everytime I go to a tradeshow for my work I get sick.. Theres just to many people there and one of them is bound to be sick which basically gets everyone sick. Next time just buy a bottle of airborne and use it before, during and after each day on the show floor.. it usually helps keep the sickness away.

Woah woah, hope you weren't joking about SARS. It's a serious threat and it's really scary because you could die from it. A few years ago we almost had an outbreak in our country. Luckily, it was contained right away, but we were sure was paranoid as hell when we knew someone having the flu.

I don't know, but it sure as hell feels like it. I'm all hot, then cold, sweating, it's awful. I never get sick.

Maybe it's just all the excitement of the past few days... nope, definitely SARS.
