Jerry Brown's Endorsement of Hillary Clinton Opened an Old Wound!

The nerve of that man! He stole the heart of my youthful crush, Linda Ronstadt, before I even had a chance to declare my devotion to her. I've never forgiven him for that, really. He's been dead to me ever since.

I think a lot of men of a certain age will never forgive Governor Brown for that!

And I'm too married. Sadly, she has Parkinson's disease now. It forced her to stop singing, which is a great loss to us all.

Dreams make life interesting. Reality makes life real. My life has been both interesting and real. I wouldn't change a thing.
