He must be close to 80 now. How time flies.

First it was the lady next to me at work. Then it was my niece. Monday night I went to the ER since I was in so much pain, and they said it was pneumonia. Then Michael Moore and now Merle Haggard. What are we not being told?
And yes I had the pneumonia shot
