Watch the official trailer for Morgan Neville's new movie, Won't You Be My Neighbor?
Fox News claims an elderly woman in her 70s recently drove her mobility scooter onto Interstate 55 in Memphis, Tennessee. Several drivers called 911 before following the woman to make sure she was okay. The police quickly arrived and took the woman to a hospital where she received proper medical attention. At first, the woman refused to stop for cops. I so wanted to find video of this slow speed slight chase on You Tube but it's not there yet. Surely, someone video'd that. I'll keep looking. In the meantime I found this one.
And there was this guy 7 years ago:

If you haven't met The Zimmres, here they are. Some say they are the woeld oldest rock band and they are global superstars.
They have a 90-year-old lead singer and a cmbined age of more than 3,000.
There story begins with BBC documantary maker, Tim Samuels. Samuels set out to make a film about how badly the elderly are treated in Britian -- and decides to form a band with the lonely old people he finds in care homes, tower blocks and bingo halls. No one takes Samuel's idea seriously until he comes across record label owner Neil Reed - and U2 producer Mike Hedges - who believe that the elderly should be given a voice and manage to get access to the Beatles' old studio at Abbey Road.
On a magical day, the 40 old people - who have no musical background - come together at Abbey Road to record their version of The Who's 'My Generation', with 90-year-old Alf belting out the lead vocals.
Overnight, Alf, 99-year-old Winnie, 100-year-old Buster and the rest of the band become global sensations. Their video goes to number one on YouTube.
My friend Garry Smits, a sportswriter for the Florida Times Union in Jacksonville, FL helped me come up with this one. I will be asking listeners for more suggestions so feel free to email me @ julies@1049therebel if you have any to add.
#3 Georgia will face #4 ranked Alabama Monday night for the battle to the NCAA Championship. So we decided to come up with a drinking game, of course. Why? Because that's what we do! So get your beer, shots of choice, whatever, get ready and ENJOY!
1. If Nick Saban yells at his offensive coordinator, drink.
2. If the announcers mention that no Saban assistant has ever beaten him, take 2 drinks.
3. If Vince Dooley's 1980 national championship team is referenced, take two drinks.
4. If Herschel Walker is on camera, drink.
5. If Georgia quarterback Jake Fromm is compared to Buck Belue, drink.
6. If the words "ferocious" or "tenacious" are used about the Alabama defense, drink.
7. If Alabama safety Minkah Fitzpatrick is called a "velociraptor," drink.
8. If an Alabama fan in a Bear Bryant hat is on camera, drink.
9. If any announcer uses the words "hunker down," drink.
10. If Kirby Smart is captured with his visor on crooked, drink.
Got anymore?
Hallmark movies are on pretty much 24/7 this time of year and if you have to watch one, you might as well make it fun. That's why we have come up with The Rebel Hallmark Movie Drinking Game. We prefer shots, but if you're a lightweight you can do beer.
Ready? Hit play.
Are you OK?
Better eat something, because it looks as if you need some food on your stomach. That reminds us …
How do you feel? You'd better get it together because another movie starts in two minutes
