So these people, who dropped their other "Lost Cause", after it flopped, have latched onto conspiracy theory mongering over the vaccines. Someone needs to start following the money because, guaranteed, there are people making money from this, as they were with the other Lost Cause.

I managed to get my first shot today, although the roll out here is a mess due to govonor Ricketts. The county program is only doing 55 plus. The clinic I went to had hundreds of open appointments. So I waited until just before the cutoff time and made an appointment, even though I'm only 47. I half expected to be turned away, but no one even questioned it even though there were like 5 check points.

 

What a waste of resources. They had everything set up and staff there. They should have opened it up to people with a comorbidity or younger people. Instead about 400 appointments went to waste. When I first signed up I had some ethical reservations about jumping the line. I'm still not sure it was right, but I volunteer at a residential home helping elderly folk with family visits. Right or wrong I'm happy I got it, both for myself and the residents, some of whom can't get get a vaccine due to their conditions.

For some reason I thought you had already gotten your vaccine. Glad you did!

 

My parents were in lines for hours for the vaccine. I tried going to the same local as them but no way was I waiting 8 plus hours to get vaccinated. I was able to go to my local clinic and was done in about 30 minutes. The clinic was better coordinated than where my folks went.

I have to say that out here on the north left coast, things have been run extremely well.  My grandson is fully vaccinated as he is an educator.   All teachers jumped the line here by order of our governor.  People were clamoring to reopen schools, but got a bit testy when teachers got extraordinary treatment.  Some people only know how to bitch!

Thank you! I'm glad you were able to get it without much waiting.

 

I walked in the building and within 5 minutes I had the shot. There was no waiting until the 15 minute period where they watch for reactions.  Unfortunately I live in a state where a lot of people are completely convinced this is a bad vaccine. It's incredibly frustrating.

So true! Teachers absolutely should be prioritized.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By JAS0N47 · Posted

      That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

      Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.

      Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be.

      I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here.

      It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.

      Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.

      I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.

      Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis.

      Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
