Today’s Thoughts
Nice to have a rainy
spring day…with a little snow this morning to keep us on our toes.
I had a good lunch
with Mary & Mike. With the rain and clouds, we all had a late pancake
breakfast. Very good conversation and food. Andy & Faith are down in Phx.
AZ House finally
passed a bill to stop the 1864 abortion law. Big question is Will the Senate
follow through?
Simultaneous Supreme
Court Hearing and Hush Money trial. Neither allows cameras so CNN did a split screen
with SC and dialog only on the Hush money. I tried to watch but it was just too
much to keep up with.
Did you Know?
Fact: Dead skin cells are a main ingredient in household dust
Here’s an
interesting science fact for you: According
to researchers at Imperial College London, humans shed around 200 million skin
cells each hour—and they have to go somewhere when we’re indoors. If the idea
of skin dust isn’t sitting well with you, you should know that a report from
the American Chemical Society found that a skin oil called squalene naturally
helps reduce indoor ozone levels by up to 15 percent.

come away to avoid.” 61 – Jet Li,
Chinese-Singaporean martial artist and actor “I
wish heroes didn’t exist. Whenever we need a hero, it’s because there’s a
problem that needs to be solved; it’s because two groups of people, or two
countries, are hurting one another, so a hero is needed to save us. If
everyone were at peace if everyone were happy, why would we need heroes? The
world is better off without heroes.” 59 – Kevin James, American comedic
