Years ago, while working at a garden designing job, I met Jo Don Rooney and his wife. At that time, I was living with someone battling drug addiction. It was an incredibly tough period in my life, and I had to leave my job to return to Ohio due to the overdose and passing of this individual. I've experienced struggles firsthand and understand the difficulty of persevering through them. Nevertheless, I persevered and have recently retired after 21 years in the Army. It brings me joy to know that Jo is sober and my favorite band, still has the possibility of producing more music.

My plastic surgeon said that sometimes when men get anti-aging procedures, it’s a very fine line, where they start to look feminine. Especially with filler and facelifts. The same thing happened to John Rzeznik from Goo goo dolls

@CC-kr3mr Oh gosh 💯% agree regarding John from Goo Goo Dolls, I live in the same town in New Jersey where he lives and I see him around often, ewww he looks so artificial, he was so nice looking, he should have left well enough alone😮great guy but he’s done so much to his face imo

i wonder if that's only because in popular culture we only ever saw women "getting work done" like how makeup used to be for a lot of men in media until they were in the chair getting touched up before walking onto the set.
@momma320410 ай бұрын
@@overtherenowaitthere There are a lot of women who get work done who end up looking artificial so same goes for the men. Both men and women get too much done and they all look hideous! Singer Kenny Roger’s for example, had way too much done, after a while he didn’t even look like himself. They end up looking comical instead of younger, just age naturally. 🤦🏻♀️😑

It's just a damn shame that men or women feel like they need to do this. The entertainment industry as a whole is a Godless, moraless and downright evil industry. People feeling like they have to always look young, eating disorders, certain parts of the industry dictating what you have to look like and wear, it's no wonder people turn to drugs and alcohol. And the worst part of it is people putting these entertainers on pedestals where the artist feels obligated to always cater to them. The industry SUCKS

Can you imagine the Statler Brothers, Oak Ridge Boys, much less The Bluegrass Boys, Smokey Mountain Boys etc referring to their band mates (of 20+ years) as “business partners”? No, they were brothers. But they also made authentic music and formed organically. Jokes

All these well wishes make me sick! We ALL have issues and problems in our lives. You wanna turn to drinking so be it, that's NO EXCUSE to get behind the wheel and drive! You're taking the risk of killing someone, killing yourself, and hurting yours and others loved ones so badly the rest of their lives are disastrous. My 2023: my husband is in the hospt. every month for 5 months straight, twice in March, one of those days being his birthday. Twice he was close to death. We get a month off with no hospitalizations and in July my sister is diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. I didn't turn to drinking or drugs to get through the toughest year of my life.
