Donât know if youâve heard the news however, itâs becoming uncovered that a science person and not a doctor, was a political appointee put in the CDC. The hidden plan was to make it so that as many people as possible were to be put in situations to get COVID. They wanted to lock kids in college for the rest of 2020 and of course persuade the Republicans not to wear masks.  They put a gag order on Dr. Fauci because his truths were messing up their plans. They wanted to go with the herd immunity version where millions and millions would die. Just read that Washington State will be getting 40% less of the vaccine next week as well as some other states.

Sorry Bruce, but we lost another - Chad Stuart (from Chad & Jeremy) died today at age 79 of pneumonia (non-Covid-related) after being admitted to the hospital after a fall. He had just turned 79 on the 10th.

I watched "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom" last night. 2020 has been such a parade of horrors that I had to stop and think, "Was it this year that Chadwick Boseman died, or did that happen last year?" It was this awful year, of course. FYI, the movie is good. Viola Davis is great. And Boseman's final performance is simply electrifying.

So Sorry to hear about Gerry Marsden.  He and his group Gerry and the Pacemakers was one of my favorites during the early British Invasion days.  I believe Gerry and his brother was also from the Liverpool area.  They were good friends with Paul.  Loved their song Ferry Across the Mercey and many others.

Yes, they were from Toxteth in Liverpool. Brian Epstein managed them as well. In 1989 Gerry got together with Paul and some others and did a remake of Ferry Cross the Mersey.
When I was a kid in the '60s I remember going to a double feature of AHDN and the Pacemakers movie Ferry Cross the Mersey!
