Michael J Fox has a new documentary on his journey with Parkinson’s disease. It’s streaming on Apple TV+.

I love his optimism. I also admire his wife very much. She has certainly taken her wedding vows seriously, for better or worse, sickness and health. She has been by his side throughout all of his struggles.

The documentary is called, Still: A Michael J Fox Movie

On a lighter note, CBS or Paramount+ is doing. A GRAMMY SALUTE to The Beach Boys on April 8th.

An arrest today, thankfully before anything happened. A school in two of my grands school district was targeted today. Thank goodness for a sister that saw something and said something! What has happened in this country?!

Glad,

Targeted? What do you mean? What were they arrested for?

Plan was to shoot up at least one school.

Glad,

That is awful 😢! It’s terrifying, isn’t it?

There was an incident awhile back, several years ago, just north of New Orleans where a kid was bragging on FB that he was going to blow up the school and start shooting people on the first day of school. Several people were saying that they were going to keep their kids home from school on the first day.

One of the students who attended the high school saw it on FB and reported it. So, an investigation was launched. The boy’s mother did something horrible! She destroyed her son’s computer so no one would find any evidence against him.

I can’t remember how the case ended.

How many more shootings will occur? Gosh, I can’t imagine how horrific of an experience this is for students and their families. There are no words to describe it.

I am so glad that the person that you spoke about in your message was arrested and no one was harmed at the school.

NHWM,
Good documentary on MJ Fox.
Love his optimist. I think my husband takes all this in similar manners, in some ways he remains very positive.
I understand how people view Fox’s wife, wish we all be like that, but, having lots of help is different. Money unfortunately allows better care.

This is true. Having loads of money makes a huge difference.

Funny! I was really, literally, just watching Power or Love by Huey Lewis that was written for MJ in Back to the Future!

Back to the Future was a fun Movie. Huey Lewis and the News was a fun band in the 80’s.

So, everyone has interesting family members or other friends and associations who do odd things at times.

I just received a horrifying photo of someone that I know in messages on my iPhone.

I couldn’t figure out why they looked so red in the face, strange and uncomfortable.

Then they revealed to me that they had a ‘vampire’ facial and that they were in pain. Call me stupid but I didn’t even know what a vampire facial was.

They proceeded to tell me that the Kardashians get vampire facials. I said, okay, but who cares? Why did you put yourself through this pain and discomfort? They said so that they would look younger. Whatever…

They look like they have a horrible sunburn and afterwards I guess they look better.

They are extremely vain and have spent a fortune on cosmetic surgery and so on. Whatever floats their boat…

People should give a warning before sending a disturbing photo of themselves. LOL 😆

NHWM - how old is the person who sent you her vampire facial picture? I just watched an episode of Judy Justice (Judge Judy Sheindlin) in which a lady in her 60s maybe was talked/pressured into buying an expensive jar of facial cream ($600) and a device that would help make her look younger (how? I don't know) but it cost $8,000. By the time she left the cosmetic store, she spent about $10,000 worth of junk. She sued the salesman to take back his stuff and give her a refund.

I was flabbergasted that a woman who had lived at least 6 decades could be tricked, pressured and practically robbed. The slick salesman knew how to spot his victims. I am sure 100% of them are women, middle age and up who are trying desperately to look young-er.

Need,

Need, you should have messaged her back to ask if that was the "before" or "after" photo.

I've nothing against people keeping up whatever beauty regimen makes them happy and taking care of their looks - it's good for morale, and if it's a nightly ritual it can help with sleep hygiene too. What disturbs me is that so many of the effective cosmetic surgery procedures (I don't include the utter-hooey snake oil type) make people look not so much younger as just... peculiar. You can't see the wrinkles or the deep creases or the wattles, but what you do see is some kind of weird avatar, often of a much loved person.

And the things young women are doing! Ohmygod! They look like they've had their faces inflated. I hope this fashion for lip fillers and cheek plumpers passes really quickly.

Country,

It’s a guy who is extremely vain! 😆 He is addicted to plastic surgery and different facial stuff!

He lies about his age on Facebook and people that graduated college with him tell him that it’s impossible for him to be that young! 😆

He’s in his 50’s. I guess it could be a midlife crisis or something. He is very entertaining! I’m getting to where I’m not surprised by anything he does anymore!

Countrymouse,

I agree. I’ve admired very tastefully done facelifts , eye lifts, or nose jobs. But there is some plastics done now that look so peculiar. I know someone that keeps getting fillers in her lips . They put so much in her upper lip it’s like a duck bill now , and it doesn’t move when she talks . When she tries to smile it looks like she has a swollen lip from a fist fight .

NHWM- a guy! I’m a little surprised, but not really.

More and more male celebs are doing plastic surgeries and torturous treatments that typically done by women. The results after getting too many of these are pretty … awful.

Polar,

How does a person spend $10,000 on make up? I am flabbergasted by this as well!

He called me today laughing at me, saying that I am too “old fashioned.!” 😆 He can do his vampire facials. I am not joining him!

I had a crazy dream last night. I think it was from talking with my family member who did the vampire facial. When I ask him why does he spend so much money on this stuff he always answers, “Because I can afford it. I don’t have a spouse or children, so I can spend all of my money on myself!”

I had a dream that I found a hidden stash of money, I started pulling out the cash, the more money I pulled out of this area, the more money that I saw still in there. It was a never ending stash of cash!

Then I woke up and thought that I was rich, until I realized that I was dreaming and said to myself, ‘Nope, I’m not rich, I’m like most people. middle class.” It was a fun dream though 😊.

NHWM - never mind $10,000, I was shocked at the $600 facial cream. That as$h0le of a salesman even bragged that he earned a great living and that he flew to FL regularly to spend his weekends at the beach.
