One more reason I don't want kids.

Pros outweigh the cons my friend.

That's the truth and for a change, I just gave my son a cold. I have been very fortunate to avoid most of the colds he has brought home since starting daycare but this is a pure miserable head cold. I have felt like crap for 3 days, now the poor guy has it.
As far as a cure.. ain't one but I have had success with a product cold Cold FX. Not even sure what it is, probably eccinecia and whatever else is supposed to help all pressed into a pill. You are supposed to take 1 a day as preventative measures but when you feel a cold starting, take 3 pills, 3 times a day, then 2 pills, 3 times a day and finally 1. If you don't end up completely avoiding the cold you certainly get a lesser version of it.
The one thing i am not sure of is if it is available outside of Canada.
