Episode #79-Make the Opportunity!!

6/11/2024
Join us as General Hospital Saves the World and you and me one episode at a time! This week, we learn from the wise Alexis Davis to keep trying in the face of hardship as it’s the trying that matters! Tracy reminds us that if an opportunity doesn’t present itself, make one! Josslyn Jacks’ fabulous lifeguard outfit got me to thinking about the state of lifeguard staffing this summer and what can be done to alleviate shortages. And if we are planning on spending more time at the pool this summer, should we be using DermaPool, which Nina was highlighting to Willow and is that a real product? The fashion alert this week is real with Felicia, Princess Felicia remember, pretty in pink! Pink is such a magical color and magic is real and folks like Gregory Chase, reminded all that he touched in Port Charles of this! As we go forward into this week take a pause to look at a problem or something you are deliberating from a different perspective; Tracy Q has taught us this week, it can make all the difference! https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes339092.htm https://www.dermaswim.com/ https://www.naturallife.com/cdn/shop/files/484A3302_20copy_300x.webp?v=1708745423

Episode #74-Prairie Dogs in Port Charles?!

5/4/2024
Join us as General Hospital Saves the World and you and me one episode at a time! This week, join us as we talk about the Black-tailed prairie dog and this amazing animal and its status as a Keystone Species, keeping the prairie ecosystem thriving, just like our benevolent mobster of Port Charles, Sonny Corinthos, keeps society heathy and functioning! These amazing small mammals also are quite the talkers and can talk trash with the best of our favorite characters on GH. Prairie dogs live their lives to the fullest during the day, being diurnal, not cathemeral like most of us and most folks in Port Charles. The Jump-Yip is their signature expression, leaping for joy or a warning or a ‘hey, everyone still out there’, with a loud bark (chirp) and standing up on their short hind legs! They are also quite the fashionistas, sporting varying brownish, white, tannish and some reddish coats. Like so many in Port Charles, this little cousin to the ground hog, which is found in New York, is key to the survival of many others. In particular for the prairie dog is the black-footed ferret, who needs them for 95% of their diet. And keeping in mind the constant danger these keepers of the prairie are always in, with constant threats from hawks, owls, coyotes and prairie rattlesnakes, they still live life to the fullest every day! The black-tailed prairie dog, like Sonny, Carly, Nina and Drew, go out everyday to keep building their prairie empires, having babies and talking trash on that yellow lab walking by! https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/why-jump-yipping-prairie-dogs-are-like-yawning-humans https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4183310/ https://www.youtube.com/@AllCanadianReptileGirl https://www.nature.org/en-us/get-involved/how-to-help/animals-we-protect/black-footed-ferret/ https://www.prairiedoghoogland.com/vocalizations/ https://darksky.org/

Episode #73-The Resilience of Queen Carly!!

4/21/2024
Join us as General Hospital Saves the World and you and me one episode at a time! This week, join us as we think about going wherever we want and doing whatever we want! Taking a deep breath and walking away from an altercation and understanding sometimes anger is our way of punishing ourselves when there is no one else to punish. General Hospital also shines a light on probate law with Jason’s resurrection and Ava Jerome’s return as the fashion queen for the week! GH writers also remind us that worrying about what will happen does not make it any more likely or less likely to happen, enjoy this moment! We end on my favorite character, Carly Corinthos, who’s adaptability and resilience are second to no one! Let’s channel Queen Carly this week and rise up from whatever is challenging us or holding us back. All hail Queen Carly Spencer! Yes,Spencer, for now! https://nycourts.gov/courthelp/WhenSomeoneDies/index.shtml https://clark.com/ https://www.suzeorman.com/resources/wills-trusts
