For better or worse, Famgoria magazine is putting a SCREAM on his cover for subscribers. The cover story APPEARS on newsstands , for those at least to still buy the magazine after all these years of technological advancements.
The cover is pretty cool, the imagery of the movie is front and center slashing the paper version of the magazine. But here again, the idea of magazines in general or not appreciated it in today’s timeline, but the nostalgia of this film could cause a certain uumph of people to go out and buy the magazine from new stands again.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife grossed $16.5 million on Friday, a figure that includes the $4.5 million the film made in Thursday night previews, per “Deadline.”
This gross is exactly what the film needed and guarantees that the film will exceed its initial tracking of $30-35 million. We’re looking at a potential $40 million+ opening weekend and how it goes depends on how hard families come out for the movie the rest of the weekend.
This amazing movie is both an homage to the past along with a wonderful and refreshingly new take on the film.. it deserves credit as one of the better films of all of 2021, from start to finish people were on the edge of their seats. Incredibly, during certain scenes of AFTERLIFE, people applauded at the beautiful way film makers honored Egon and others.
GHOSTBUSTERS AFTERLIFE is a fun ride and a well-worth-it-theater moment .. it needs to be seen on the big screen in at atmosphere that is shared among other human beings who feel the nostalgia of the original coupled with the freshness of the new film…
Tens of thousands of protesters, many from far-right groups, marched through Vienna on Saturday after the Austrian government announced a nationwide lockdown beginning Monday to contain skyrocketing coronavirus infections.
Demonstrations against virus restrictions also took place in Switzerland, Croatia, Italy, Northern Ireland and the Netherlands on Saturday, a day after Dutch police opened fire on protesters and seven people were injured in rioting that erupted in Rotterdam. Protesters rallied against coronavirus restrictions and mandatory COVID-19 passes needed in many European countries to enter restaurants, Christmas markets or sports events, as well as mandatory vaccinations.

News headlines of late appear to be more like the Onion stories, but this one is very real and somewhat startling. Apparently, a vial of smallpox was found in the freezer at a lab in Pennsylvania!
Here is what is know:
“The frozen vials labeled ‘Smallpox’ were incidentally discovered by a laboratory worker while cleaning out a freezer in a facility that conducts vaccine research in Pennsylvania. CDC, its Administration partners, and law enforcement are investigating the matter and the vials’ contents appear intact,” the CDC added.
“The laboratory worker who discovered the vials was wearing gloves and a face mask. We will provide further details as they are available.”
According to Yahoo News, which cited an alert sent to Department of Homeland Security leadership, the vials were reportedly found in a freezer Monday night at a Merck facility outside Philadelphia.
The closest Merck sites to Philadelphia are the sprawling campuses in West Point and North Wales, Montgomery County, although Action News cannot confirm there are questionable vials inside the building.

While this matter has zero zilch to do with COVID-19, Facebook has given itself the chance to use news links of it to Xpress the safety of the COVID-19 vaccination roll out.
A significant storm has the potential to disrupt travel plans from the Midwest to the Northeast during one of the busiest times of the year to travel. We are talking about disruptions at major airline hubs like Chicago and New York at the beginning of next week. “The upper trough and a possible embedded low may support potentially significant low pressure that would affect portions of the East, and requires monitoring given the busy Thanksgiving holiday travel week,” the Weather Prediction Center (WPC) said Tuesday morning.

A new COVID variant identified in a handful of European countries is raising concerns among some health professionals because there are changes to the coronavirus spike protein that have never been seen before.
The variant, known either as B.1.X or B.1.640, was first reported by the French paper Le Telegramme after it infected 24 people at a French school in the Brittany region last month. When the variant was discovered in France, the school at which the outbreak occurred was forced to close half of its classes, Le Telegramme reported.

The past few weeks have been traumatic.. for body and soul.
Apologies from the deepest part of my heart on a lack of material and updates on this site. But other tragic circumstances befell a family..
Covid struck hard .. we were so careful. Vaccinated.. all of the precautions. But it hit hard.. Family even ended up being hospitalized ..
In the midst of this virus induced chaos, my mother was succumbing to her final days on this planet.
After a tremendously difficult long goodbye due to Alzheimer’s, +Sharon reached for the heavens when she peacefully stopped breathing on the morning of November 11 at 4:12 am..
After several weeks of hospitals and ICUs and tear-drenched meetings with doctors who were describing a proverbial brick wall of medical problems, my mother entered hospice and her suffering ended.
Before it did, before her final breath, a bed-side meeting took place. The deepest parts of my soul poured out to this mighty matriarch of the family.. she couldn’t talk at the end but her piercing green eyes told her story. She stared at my while I spoke, she stared at others in the family through my phone as they did, too. Her eyes teared at times, lit up when she heard her husband (perhaps she wanted to throw a few cusses out there at the end but couldn’t) and she listened.. She wanted to get audible at a few times. I hugged her the best I could without causing pain. The emotional pain was annihilating.
By the time I left the room, a hurried flurry of nostalgia rushed back into my brain. Every single Christmas and holiday.. every birthday. That moment she picked me up in Homesville after a significant event.. each and every time bad day needed to be explained and she was the shoulder to cry on.. It all rushed back so hard, so viciously.
When you think there are no tears left to come out, buckets are still waiting to fall.
From those I talk to, those who lost parents already, I am now in the club.
There is something very lonely and immediately different. It’s a palpable loneliness that on one hard seems normal and natural, but on the other just seems unfair.
She is not suffering now. Dementia, my friends, causes suffering.
Her mind and body were strong for my Mom’s entire life.
Alzheimer’s is a long, unfair goodbye. It is just plain awful..
But through it, somehow my mom kept her fiery personality. Her humor was profound. She had the quickest wit of anyone I’ve ever known. I try to emulate it in life but falter in comparison. And even during her final years, when her mind was slipping more and more, she could leave everyone in stitches with sarcastic comments and a belly of laughter. That part of her personality never vanished.
Her friends and family had a good run. But it didn’t happen in spite of her.. it happened because of her. Every day of someone’s life was touched by my Mother since she was born. Her impact was significant.
While from a small town in Pennsylvania and not amounting to fame or fortune, her life was consequential. It affected countless others. She mattered. And the memories of her do, as well, the celebration of life when it occurs will, too.
May +Sharon rest in eternal peace. She died a Christian Catholic.
Right about now she’s cracking jokes at the pearly gates.. she is remaking heaven in her own image! And she even be having her first Pinochle party with a great friend in 40 years..
