Viewed the
wonderful film "La La Land" on HBO last evening. If you want
to watch a beautiful film, talented acting, tremendous choreography and
an all around great musical in the genre of the some of the ones made
in times past I urge you to see it. It's set in contemporary time but
hearkens back to another era which showed wonderful musicals with little
to no profanity, no nudity and no explicit sex scenes which is I
believe much more erotic then leaving nothing to the imagination. It
had some depth as well. The creativity was amazing.
Some humans create great things with staggering talent and intellect of
the homo sapiens big brain. They are blessed. It stars Emma Stone and
Ryan Gosling. The film won numerous Academy Awards. We saw it on HBO
but if you missed it last evening then you probably can get it on Video
on Demand or HBO Go if you have cable channels. It is worth it to take
time to see it. I do not think you will be disappointed.
This
film was refreshing in our explosive, fearful and sad time with a
president who does not know what he is doing. Now for the bad news.
Headline on Huffington:
"Don’t Look Now, But Full Obamacare Repeal Is Back On The Table.
A bill nobody took seriously suddenly sounds serious." I was awakened
at 3:00 a.m. and just happened to check the news which is always a bad
move. I could not get back to sleep! It was frightening for all of us
but especially serious for the poor, the middle class with expensive
medical issues and those with pre-existing conditions. It could also
affect nursing homes as patients would have to relinquish their homes to
pay for care. When their money ran out god only knows what would
happen. This bill is worse than the last Republican evisceration of
health care. It is mean, it is sadistic and most of all it is wrong.
The nation is so decimated by what Trump has done that no one sane would
call America "Great." He is making America anything but great again.
He is making it poor, toxic, climate brutalized, divided at home and
alienated in the world. I urge you to RESIST this with all the effort
you can muster, call Congress and then call them again. Write letters,
attend protests if you can but do something so that people who get sick
and have little to no money can have a shot at life. It is that
important. The Republican Party who says they care for life of the
"unborn" has no care for those who are already born and many who come
into this world with a preexisting expensive condition or develop one
soon after. Ask me I know.
I will post below the essence of what is going to be offered this time by Republicans (of course) Bill
Cassidy of Louisiana and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. Graham is
friendly with McCain so who knows if McCain will be still healthy enough
to cast a no vote again although Graham and he are friends. Pass this
on to anyone you choose.
RESIST as if you or your children's lives depend upon it because they do -- http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/dont-look-now-but-full-obamacare-repeal-is-back-on-the-table_us_59bd9f2de4b086432b07a12a?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009
