George Jones was admitted to a Nashville-area hospital on Monday (May
21) with a lingering upper respiratory infection, according to the
singer's spokesman. He was originally hospitalized for the infection
on March 29 and returned home five days later. His concert dates for
late May and June will be rescheduled. Jones will be unable to perform
about seven scheduled concerts, including a Friday (May 25) appearance
at the Loretta Lynn Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tenn. It was his first
scheduled performance since his initial hospitalization.

Speaking of Loretta, her career is on healthwatch -- since documentation
shows she was married at "almost 16" -- not the age of 13 she always
claimed in her tales.

For some reason, I'm always surprised to hear that he's still with us.

He's 80 now. There are still a lot of 80-year olds around.

Yeah, but with his history, he's an OLD 80.

I remember seeing an interview in the '80's with Loretta and Conway
Twitty. Loretta said that when she was a teenager she had a poster of
Conway on her bedroom wall. Conway's first hit was "It's Only Make
Believe" in November, 1958. Loretta, who we now know was OLDER than
Conway, would have been 26 at that time!

Even with the false age she would have been 23!
