One of the rare times I beg to differ, Sir. I do not consider Medicare an "Entitlement". I worked 50+ yr. and paid in to Medicare all that time as per governmental mandate. Now that I'm over 65 I am covered by Medicare. I pay every month for Medicare part B. This is not free as is Medicaid to the beneficiary. Additionally, There is supplemental coverage and prescription coverage I pay each month as well; and the coverage isn't great.either.

If we only stated facts if we had evidence, we wouldn't call out ANY evil acts-that are cleverly done in seclusion.

A new study in New England Journal of Medicine showed vaccinated/boosted recover slower & remain contagious longer (once COVID+) than unvaxxed.

Medicare is not an entitlement. I paid my entire working life.

[carolbenson]

I never listen or watch Beyonce so not bothered by what she does or says. I agree with you on another new vaccine. Thanks for reminding me about your book that I'll buy.

These high school kids need to get out of the house and away from the computer, it's not healthy to stare
at the computer for hours on end.

There is a very small chance of being bitten by a shark when in the ocean! I've lived by the Atlantic and swam in the ocean all of my life! I worked on a shrimp boat for 3 seasons and at 25 miles off shore had to dive in and fix the rudder chain! Shrimp boats were primitive back then, '73 to '76, and the rudder chain usually keeps the rudder from going to far! Anyway, shark bites are rare compared to the number of people in the water and is usually a case of mistaken identity by the shark! In Florida we just sew you up and try to get you back in the water! Seldom serious and we really aren't on the shark menu! But they are on ours! ✌

American Bandstand had the first TV studio in the country. A facility designed specifically for broadcast Television rather than bringing in equipment to various venues.

Simon and Garfunkel also appeared on American Bandstand as Tom and Jerry (Paul Simon was Jerry!)

We have gyms in our high schools here in Lancaster Pa.

Regarding shark are species of shark (the notoriously dangerous Bull Shark, for example) that can survive in fresh water. Lake Nicaragua, for instance, has a large population of Bull Sharks which can be quite dangerous. They've been seen as far upriver in the Mississippi as Illinois. Not trying to scare anybody, just interesting. I rather like sharks. But, granted, I've never been eaten by one. I'd probably have a different opinion of them if I had been.

In Iowa flesh-eating bacteria and brain-eating amoeba in lakes are something the lady should be concerned with.

How can you not have healthcare ?
A hospital will never refuse treatment.

[nancyries]

Sorry, but when I was a preteen we used to say don't have a spaz attack. Meaning don't freak chill. Period. Get real

[clintonweldon]

[workingmanfitness]

It’s be great if your staff put sources in the description. Is that too much to ask in these free daily updates 🤔🤨

[jimw.]

Most Americans have health care coverage - that's a very good thing.
who pays for the health care expenses for the millions of illegal aliens living in the country?
I'm afraid I can guess the answer to that question.
