Six married men will be dropped on an island with one car and 3 kids each for six weeks.

Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance  classes. 

There is no fast food. 

Each man must take care of his 3 kids; keep his assigned house  clean, correct all homework, complete science projects, cook, do  laundry, and  pay a list of ‘pretend’ bills with not enough money. 

In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each week. 

Each man must remember the birthdays of all their friends and relatives, and send cards out on time. 

Each man must also take each child to a doctor’s appointment, a dentist appointment and a haircut appointment.

He must make one  unscheduled and inconvenient visit per child to the Urgent Care  (weekend, evening, on a  holiday or right when they’re about to leave  for vacation).

He must also make cookies or cupcakes for a social  function. 

Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house, planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times. 

The men will only have access to television when the kids are asleep and all chores are done. 

There is only one TV between them, and a remote with dead batteries. 

Each father will be required to know all of the words to every  stupid song that comes on TV and the name of each and every  character on cartoons. 

The men must shave their legs, wear makeup daily, which they will apply to themselves either while driving or making three lunches.

Each man will have to make an Indian hut model with six toothpicks,  a tortilla and one marker; and get a 4 year old to eat a serving of  peas. 

Each man must adorn himself with jewelry, wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes, keep their nails polished and eyebrows groomed.

The  men must try to get through each day without snot, spit-up or barf  on their clothing. 

During one of the six weeks, the men will have to endure severe abdominal cramps, back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood  swings but never once complain or slow down from other duties.

They  must try to explain what a tampon is for when the 6-yr old boy finds  it in the purse. 

They must attend weekly school meetings, church, and find time at least once to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting. 

He will need to read a book and then pray with the children each night without falling asleep, and then feed them, dress them, brush their teeth and comb their hair each morning by 7:00.

They must  leave the home with no food on their face or clothes. 

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each father  will be required to know all of the following information: each  child’s birthday, height, weight, shoe size, clothes size and doctor’s name.

Also the child’s weight at birth, length, time of  birth, and length of labor, each child’s favorite color, middle  name, favorite snack, favorite song, favorite drink, favorite toy,  biggest fear and what they want to be when they grow up.

They must clean up after their sick children at 2:00 a.m.and then spend the remainder of the day tending to that child and waiting on them hand and foot until they are better.

They must have a loving, age appropriate reply to, ‘You’re not the boss of me.’ 

The kids vote them off the island based on performance.

The last man wins only if…he still has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment’s notice.

How Flu Spreads

Flu viruses spread mainly from person to person through coughing or sneezing of people with influenza. Sometimes people may become infected by touching something with flu viruses on it and then touching their mouth or nose. Most healthy adults may be able to infect others beginning 1 day before symptoms develop and up to 5 days after becoming sick. That means that you may be able to pass on the flu to someone else before you know you are sick, as well as while you are sick.

Preventing Seasonal Flu: Get Vaccinated
