On High Alert

April 2009. Top epidemiologists, the international community, and the World Health Organization (WHO) braced for the spread of the potentially deadly H1N1 virus, a unusually virulent strain the likes of which hadn't been seen since 1918. The U.S. responded swiftly urging citizens to be vigilant in their hygiene practices in order to delay the impending pandemic.

Daring to look death in the eye are Cedardale A1 players Dorian Brown and Susan Dwyer. The two risked it all by heading, with their families and rackets in hand, directly to Mexico for a week. Pictured here, clearly under the influence of tropical adult beverages, are the mavericky Brown and Dwyer who were quoted in saying, "the hiney flu is for sissies." Brown was interrogated by Boston Globe reporters upon her return to Logan International where she claims her experience to have been "unremarkable."


Continuing to mock the WHO and the flu at the club, Dwyer and Brown donned latex gloves for post match handshakes, faked "uncovered" coughing fits, and casually stated that their Mexican accommodations had been "on a farm." Sadly, the ultimate consequence would be across the back of Dorian's son, twelve year old Trevor Brown, who was banned for ten days from the Georgetown Middle School carpool.
