  1. Loved them all…But I want to know which hospital/medical center the “Senator” visited or was a patient in that he actually saw any of those activities happen! Not in my area…not in my overworked life and I loved playing cards with friends and family in my off work time. Am now a retiree so I can enjoy whenever I like.
