I, too, find infomercials fun, but basically I don’t expect them to work! I came across two last year that I picked up from Facebook. One was for a herpes cure. I’d just had shingles (a form of herpes and very painful) and had some residual pain that nothing could touch. I was desperate. This infomercial popped up when scrolling FB and I thought it was worth the chance. Ta da!! It worked and life is back to normal. Color me surprised! The second one was for weight loss. I’m sure most of us can relate to Covid Weight. Same thing. I was sure it wouldn’t work, but again (cue Snare drums)…it worked. I still haven’t given up my skepticism, but it does make me wonder.

I enjoyed today's publication.

As usual some of the 7 additional item items resonated with me more than others.

But the very last thing, a link to a 2004 performance of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", really got my day off on the right foot.

Thanks for the reminding me of that spectacular gathering of artists performing an amazing song.
