Polio is on its last legs.
The disease that once paralyzed hundreds of thousands of kids a year around the globe is now down to just a few dozen cases this year. “We are aiming to halt all transmission of wild polio virus next year,” says Peter Crowley, the head of UNICEF’s global efforts against polio.
If polio is stopped, it will be only the second human disease to be eliminated. Smallpox was the first — the last case was in 1977.
There’s reason to be optimistic that this gigantic feat of public health is within humanity’s grasp. The World Health Organization says polio transmission has stopped for the first time ever in Africa. Last month, Africa’s last bastion of polio — Nigeria — celebrated going an entire year without recording any new cases.

This is great news, but am I REALLY the only one that sees the irony inherent in adding the phrase "On Its Last Legs" to the title of an article about Polio?

Eldon Hensen is playing Foggy Nelson in the Daredevil TV series.
He also played Fulton Reed in the Mighty Ducks movies.
In the 1999 Kevin Smith movie, Dogma, Jay -after saving Linda Florentino from a couple of demons disguised as teenaged hockey players- yells:
"Go back to your paper routes, you Mighty Duck fucks!"
I am just saying that, all things considered, it is kind of ironic that Eldon Hensen wound up playing a character in a TV series adaptation of comic book character that Kevin Smith helped to revive in the new millennium.

Artist’s Rendering of the U.S.S. Gerald R. Ford. These are the next class of Aircraft Carrier for the US Navy. The Gerald R. Ford Class. Apparently, the Navy has either a mile-wide sarcastic streak, or absolutely ZERO grasp on the meaning of the word “IRONY”.
Designing, Developing, and Conceptualizing our newest Military tool: $12-13 Billion.
Actually Building it: $14 Billion.
Naming the Design after a President that was notorious for accidentally injuring himself on multiple ocassions:
PRICELESS.

Assholes. It is amusing, without a doubt. But, they are still assholes.

This is a real place. It's near where I live. They have no idea how funny it is. Seriously, they have NO IDEA about just how ironically hilarious this is.
