Someone You Know Has Lupus

Good morning. Hope everyone had a good weekend. Weather here in DC is warming up some -- in the mid 60s. It's nice, but unusual. We'll enjoy it while we can.

Saw another movie over the weekend, 1974's Murder on the Orient Express. This is also one of my favorite Agatha Christie books (right behind "And Then There Were None"). The movie had an all-star cast -- Sean Connery, John Gielgud, Vanessa Redgrave, Ingrid Bergman. I thought the movie was just ok. What ruined it for me was Albert Finney's portrayal of Hercule Poirot, one of the greatest detectives in all of fiction. In this movie, Poirot came across as a cousin of Peter Sellers' Inspector Clouseau. Kinda disappointing.

And now, to lupus news.

Quick reminder ... tomorrow, Wed., January 9 at 3 p.m. Eastern is the Lupus Foundation of America's Webchat with Dr. Tammy Utset. Again, the topic is New Year's Resolutions & Lupus. Specifically, the focus of the chat will be on the best ways to stay healthy -- and exercise -- when you have lupus. We hope you can join us.

Wanted to share another public service announcement with you. This one is a bit older, and is a 30-second clip. It's called Someone You Know Has Lupus.

Take a look.

Until next time, Wick
