Re: need a hobby
The song Fever was written by Eddie Cooley and Otis Blackwell and was first recorded and released by Little Willie John in 1956.
Many covered it later.

Re: need a hobby
There might be a parallel today with the phrase 'to hell in a handcart'. In the Great Plague of London the dead were collected in carts by hand for burial, horses were considered too valuable to risk, though the carters were not.

Re: need a hobby
Victoria, thank you for showing support for us in the leper colony.
It has just been announced that all the Farmers Markets are now banned until further notice.
Our Dictator saw how many were at the ones last week and pulled the plug.
But there may be light at the end of the tunnel, no not a train coming the other way, a number of state Labor men are saying it is time for him to go.
With what is coming out of the Hotel fiasco inquisition he should be considering his future, because it is not looking rosy.
