Actress Elizabeth Norment Dies, 91

I had to click through on that one; I was sure she couldn’t have been that old. The lady was 61 at the time of her death.

Anyone want to clue me in on how quarantining someone who has been in an area with a lethal disease is violating their civil rights?

She looks great for 61, let alone 91. Cancer doesn’t care though. RIP.
