Ok this is not about Mr.Geary- he was a talented actor and did not write the scripts- but am I the only one who remembers the Luke and Laura storyline started with a rape? I’m feeling queasy at all these posts glorifying that storyline and talking about it as a great love story.

Why do we think it’s ok for Americans to spend decades living in other countries and keep their American citizenship? Yet we demonize those who do the same in our country. We call Americans who do this ex- pats and never demand they become citizens of those countries or leave.

I recently listened to Cary Elwes memoir of the making of the Princess Bride. Throughout there is such deep appreciation for Rob Reiner as a director, coach, friend, and mentor. I got a brief glimpse of this incredible human. I feel gut punched at the loss of this brilliant and compassionate man.

Phone has now been ringing at my local #cvs for over 9 minutes unanswered. For the past 4 years their business model has been to continually cut staffing, shorten store hours, and reduce pharmacy employees.

On this Veteran's Day, I am thinking of the Over 1.2 million U.S. veterans who currently rely on SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits to afford food. And of the approximately 20,000 military families using SNAP benefits, along with 213,000 National Guard and Reserve members.

Ok @cnn.com You are really ok with posting a story that includes this line: "Barack Obama engaged in the “big dig” that retrofitted the Situation Room and dug out space under the West Wing for who knows whatever else."
