From google, we get the interesting and thought provoking "kind of colds". In my experience there's been the blue lips and brrr colds, the snotty colds, and being dragged over the colds. All of them are at the very least uncomfortable.

The common cold still has no cure. It can be caught through numerous methods, but according to some the most dangerous is by public transit. The common cold is caused by viruses, so it can't be cured through antibiotics. Colds can sometimes lead to ear and sinus infections. Usually, you just have to stick it out, waiting for your body to clean itself up. Some people believe vitamin C is useful in defending against and defeating a cold, however, although it has proven to be slightly effective, it can't be considered a cure.

For more information, look here, here, and here. There has also been evidence that rhinoviruses cause colds, so that may be a good search term to use when looking for more information.

From the wonders of Yahoo, we get today's second entry: "man so depressed piss his pants". I'm not exactly sure what the searcher was looking for here, but it sure as hell is funny. As if the gramattical horror it entails isn't enough, the subject matter takes us into the land of strange. 'Nough said.

Fail-safe formulas to eliminating your basic cold: 1)Inundate your body with vitamins and drugs, get lots of rest and eat chicken noodle soup, and your cold will disappear after a mere 7 days.
2)Do absolutely nothing, except maybe suffer. The cold will leave of its own accord after the passing of one week.
Inevitably, both the choice and the cold are yours.
