BLOGGER'S INTERFACE IS TRASH!

Many of the readers here know I am very frustrated with Google's changes to Blogger. The interface is extremely terrible and I believe they're in the process of phasing it out. I believe it's a deliberate attempt to force users off Blogger to Medium and other entities so they can properly disable the function.

We got a new president and the year is wrapping up. I believe that my mission is complete here. 

I am going to find other outlets if Google doesn't improve Blogger. 

Very sad news in the entertainment world, the legendary game show host Alex Trebek passed away from pancreatic cancer at the age of 80.

Alex was so much more than a host. He was an impartial arbiter of truth and facts in a world that needs exactly that. He was someone you could count on to entertain you every weekday, even when his health barely allowed it. And he was an underrated rapper: pic.twitter.com/ybvp7RlvjH

Thinking today about his family and his Jeopardy! family—which, in a way, included millions of us.

Absolutely heartbreaking to lose someone who meant so much to so many. Even if this show hadn’t changed my life in so many ways, this loss would be immeasurable. https://t.co/8mn0ObbxNp

Trebek said in a video posted on social media saying he will try to finish out the season of Jeopardy! despite the disease which inflicts 56,700 Americans each year. 

Trebek gave updates about his status. He admits it was taking a toll on him and he felt that the treatments weren’t working. 

The host said that he was done with the treatments and told his wife that it’s time to let him die peacefully.

Trebek who started hosting Jeopardy! since 1984 made the show famous.

Besides Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, there’s Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Pat Sajak, Vanna White, Drew Carey, Wayne Brady, Justin Trudeau, Congress and Gavin Newsom being informed.

Alex Trebek was born George Alexander Trebek. He was born in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. He was the son of George Trebek (ne Terebeychuk) and Canadian woman Lucille Lagace. He grew up in a bilingual French-English household. He was a radio host, news commentator and morning drive host. Before he found his calling, he auditioned for a game show called The Wizard of Odds. Then he was the host of High Rollers and a show called Double Dare (not the Nickelodeon version). 

He would become the face of game shows when he took on the job of hosting Jeopardy! In 1984. He would be best known for the role of quiz show host since.
