The List for Thursday May 7th 2020

Brad Paisley Has A Challenge For The Graduating Class Of 2020 … “I challenge the class of 2020 to take all of this frustration and turn it into something good. Become doctors, scientists, nurses, first responders, leaders. People, who do a better job than we have done with this. You can change the world and that doesn’t just change because you didn’t get to walk across that stage and shake hands with your principal or throw that cap in the air. You are the future of this country and we’re hoping that you will rise up and make it an even better place.”

Jennifer Nettles Says about Motherhood ‘There is nothing that becoming a mother has not changed. There is nothing that it has not touched. There is nothing that forever more it will not touch. It is the strangest feeling. I will never know again what it is like to be one whole person. I will forever have my heart walking on the outside of my body. I will worry for every day of the rest of my life.’

Back in 2018, reports surfaced that Disney was set to reboot their blockbuster franchise Pirates of the Caribbean. Since then, fans have been wondering what would that mean for Johnny Depp’s Captain Jack Sparrow, well I can say don’t expect him to return. According to reports, the studio is in fact going the reboot route, and are currently looking for a female lead, and one name at the top of Disney’s list to lead the reboot is Avengers: Endgame and Jumanji: The Next Level star Karen Gillan.

Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli are reportedly more confident than ever that their case in the college admissions scandal will be tossed out. In court documents previously obtained by Fox News, attorneys for the famous couple argued that the entire case should be thrown out after notes from scam mastermind William “Rick” Singer seemingly showed that agents had urged him to lie in order to implicate parents like Loughlin and Giannulli in committing a criminal act. Speaking to Us Weekly, an anonymous source close to the couple reveals that Loughlin and Giannulli believe that the alleged misconduct on the part of federal investigators will lead to the case being dropped. “Lori’s lawyers feel they have a very strong chance of having the charges dismissed because prosecutors withheld key evidence that [ringleader] Rick Singer was pressured by the FBI to lie in the course of his conversations with Lori,” the source explained. “It was entrapment, misleading a defendant so that Rick could get a favorable sentence for his role. Rick was the mastermind in all of this.”

and finally, Did “The Simpsons” Predict The Coronavirus And Murder Hornets In 1993 … In the episode, Springfield residents yell at Dr. Hibbert to come up with a cure for a disease. They panic and accidentally unleash killer bees from a truck. Some believe the bees were a prediction of Murder Hornets….there’s an argument that could be made for that….

He loves spending time outside, where he begins to come out of his shell and show his playful side. He’s looking for a patient and understanding person who can help him build trust and confidence.
