I had an uncle who was in charge of maintenance at a large hotel where lots of celebrities stayed. He had stories.

Imagine working at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Welp. I guess the old question is no longer relevant.
Mary Ann or Ginger?

Still Mary Ann. At least for another couple of days.

MaryAnn was my favorite. I hate to hear this.

I have to wonder about something. A friend of my husband got COVID and his only symptom was a sinus infection. He felt good the whole time. He’s in his late 60’s. His wife is in her 50’s and she caught it from him. She ended up in our small local hospital and was pretty bad the first two days. Her husband said she told him they gave her two shots “like Trump got” and did that for two days. She goes home tomorrow.

Now, I don’t know what they gave her but it made a dramatic change in two days. Are they not giving people in CA meds like they are giving in TN?

Most of the people I heard had it here were not that sick. The ones that were, most survived. In fact, I don’t personally know anybody that didn’t survive it.

There are a lot of different reasons why people are dying.

You can’t sue for malpractice if a Dr refuses to give you Ivermectin..but Ivermectin might save your life. Or it might have no bearing.

Some Drs believe in it. Others don’t. Your life is in their hands. You better go to the right Dr...and that is just one more spin of the Covid Fate Wheel.

“She eventually blossomed into the role of a belle, culminating with her being crowned Miss Nevada in 1959 and competing in the 1960 Miss America pageant.

That same year she graduated with a degree in theater arts from the University of Washington after initially studying chemistry.”

Nice. RIP Dawn. We will miss you.

"Sadly there is a segment that refuses to wear a mask and spreading the virus like a forest fire."

Masks DO NOT stop the spread of viruses.

Sadly there is a segment that refuses to wear a mask and spreading the virus like a forest fire.

My son and daughter in law are both religious mask wearers and people avoiders. They don’t even go to the grocery store. Yesterday they both got diagnosed with COVID. They did everything to not get it. They got it.

I’ve done everything to get it (Don’t wear a mask, hang out with friends...) and so far so good.

Maybe the masks are the culprit and not the solution. Maybe the lockdown is causing more cases than preventing them.

Whatever the governments are imposing, it ain’t working.

I am so heart broken

We never had a chance to meet.

It could have been the start of something beautiful.

Rest in Peace...
