I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

RFK Jr has started the process of getting the FDA to revoke approval of the polio vaccine. Doesn't he know what life was like before the vacine was introduced in the 1950s? Many children died. Others suffered life time effects, many surgeries and other traumas. Welcome to Trump world.

I recently watched A Man on the Inside with Ted Danson. Great little show. Fingers crossed for a season 2. Anyway this inspired me to go back and rewatch The Good Place. Both are on Netflix.

In preparation for Trump coming into office I have setup trailing stop sell orders for a number of my most at risk stocks. Better safe than sorry.

I got Skittles from an animal rescue when she was estimated to be less than a year old. When I tirst got her she was afraid of everything and tended to skittle from one hiding spot to another. It took weeks for her to gain the confidence to come near me. And that's why I named her Skittles.

My favourite author is the late Terry Pratchett. I have every one of his books. Too bad he passed away or I would own more. I'm also a fan of Sci Fi books, especially the books from some of the older authors from the Golden age. Perhaps that's because I'm now a Golden ager. :-)
