President Barack Obama is right! The goal should be a “a world without nuclear weapons.” No country should be expanding their nuclear arsenals. Truly MAD! (Mutual Assured Destruction)

My mom just died from dementia. You can avoid getting dementia by doing the following. 1. get hearing aids, 2. get the shingles vaccination, 3. take a multivitamin, 4. get pneumonia vaccination, 5. get RSV vaccination. Don't do this for yourself but for your family. Save them a horrible ordeal!

Tyrone Taylor's catch at the end of the Mets game on Tuesday was amazing! Never say die! Rage, rage against the dying of the light!

Also... A study indicates that a daily multivitamin also delays the onset of dementia. I have been taking one since 2008.

The shingles vaccine helps prevent and delay the onset of dementia! Sorry RFK, Jr. I care for a parent with dementia. PLEASE get the shot if you are over 50!
