"Whooping Oink"

Howard Taylor, he of web comic Schlock Mercenary, has a post on his blog about re-naming Novel Swine Flu Virus H1N1, because, after all, "H1N1 sounds like  a droid out of Star Wars."
  • Hamthrax
  • Hogthrax
  • Spamthrax
  • Tuporkulosis
  • Porklio
If it does indeed get as bad as some have suggested, it will be the Aporkalypse!  Hognarok!  Porkageddon!

Frankly, it gets even funnier in the comments.

The hubby picked up on this and has decided hamthrax is the best word to use, so that's what we've settled on :D
