Maria Shriver has been a frequent presence
 |
We were born a scant seven or so months apart and I saw her on various news and literary venues over the years and I must say that I was more attracted to the 'younger plumper' Maria than the buff lady she became after hooking up with Arnold the cheating unfaithful cur Schwarzenegger.
So, it is said that much of her extremely well kempt self is the result of various cosmetic surgical procedures, still she projects that youthful appearance which certainly escaped me after going to work for the ungrateful incorporated municipality which sucked up all my spare time like a black hole and expects me to be their bitch.
Be all of this as it may Maria remains a journalist and author and is founder of the Women's Alzheimer's Movement. Alzheimer's is one of those afflictions which could use all the help at combating it which may be available.
Today is her birthday. Happy Birthday to you !
Her parents were Eunice Kennedy and Sargent Shriver; individuals who were in the foreground of my life and those thing I considered newsworthy and that culture which departed about the time news quit being news and began it's role as sesationalized fiction made up to make money for the networks.
She is a part of the Kennedy clan and with my Navy buddy Jerry I made it a point to visit the various compounds and places they frequented over the years as a matter of personal interest. I only wish she wasn't a part of the 'fake news' mainstream media like that liar and purveyor of all that is false information Craig Melvin formerly of WISTV in Columbia SC.
