What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, March 10th, 2025. Now unfortunately, the past few weeks have been terrible for the Stock Market, goes to show that the public finds the #TrumpNightmare administration untrustworthy, and wished we had a #KamalaHarris administration instead. Now we need to strongly work together to figure out how to avoid the worst: a possible Great Depression, because we are stuck with Trump for 4 years, unless #Recount2024 takes place. Remember, while Wall Street has fun while Main Street suffers, the 99% will also lose because all of their savings, stocks, and 401Ks are in their portfolios. It’s imperative to fix things soon.

What’s up, everybody! It’s Thursday, December 27th, 2025. I watched two great French movies available on YouTube. One was called “Un Homme Au Pair” and the other “Un Homme Par Hasard” both Romantic Comedies between a man and a woman. Enjoy. As always, CDC is supended due to Trump’s stupidity, therefore to this other portal for videos on FLU, COVID-19, RSV, NOROVIRUS, MONKEYPOX, etc. Thank you, “American Medical Association (AMA).” Big shoutout to all Doctors/Nurses and everybody who works in a Hospital. My HULU membership was cancelled so I won’t be able to watch E.R. (TV) for a while now. Really upsetting. I was almost at the George Clooney episode where he saved that young boy and became famous and left the show to become a movie star including his time as Batman.

Until Next Time!
