Tuesday, Dec. 8

6:41 a.m. - I purged myself from Facebook for a few days, as well as my online free slot apps.  I need to purge myself from FoxNews, but I find it necessary to watch a little just to get the other side of CNN's reporting.  Somewhere in the middle is NBC, and best of all is the local channel, which for us is KWQC.  There was exciting news that the United Kingdom vaccinated it's first person outside of the clinical trials.  It was publicized and the world watched a 90 year old grandma get the first of two vaccines and tell everyone if she could do it, so could everyone else.  Meanwhile, FoxNews reported that the U.S. House of Representatives is going to hold a hearing about the need for vaccines, and it will call on an "expert" to testify about how the government shouldn't mandate vaccines.  Geez.
