Thoughts for the
day
Another day of monsoon…no complaints. This moisture is great for the
forest.
I was reminiscing yesterday and remembered my boy scout days and our
annual summer trip to Camp Tahosa. Our troop would spend a week at the camp,
about 1-1/2 hours from Wheat Ridge. I got on the internet machine and found out
that Camp Tahosa is still open and running. I also learned it was first opened
in 1938. It is nice to know that today’s scouts are building memories, just
like I did.
The latest jobs report doesn’t look good for Trump. I can only say that
we are living in Trump’s economy.
I was embarrassed and a little angry after RFK’s hearing. I am
embarrassed because RFK lost his cool too many times during the hearings. I am
angry that he lied when confirmed and little can be done now to get him out. He
needs to resign now before he destroys our health care. No one with his
narrow-minded and wrong views should be leading any department.
Myths from Medieval
Times
Myths About Medieval Times We Totally Fell For
In medieval times, there were
female rulers and female peasants, but there were also far more roles for women
than just these two extremes. While patriarchal rule was generally the order of
the day, there were still aspects of medieval society in which women had rights
and influences.
In poorer families, women
generally shared the labor with men, while in more well-heeled households,
noblewomen might be seen managing an estate. There were also opportunities in
religious life, as women could become nuns or abbesses.
Things That Worked
Better Before They Were “Improved” by Technology
Simple Kitchen Tools
Today’s kitchen gadgets come
with digital displays, Bluetooth connectivity, and apps – but do they really
work better than their simple predecessors? A well-made manual can opener, egg
beater, or coffee percolator could last for decades and never needed charging
or troubleshooting. Sometimes the old ways really were the best ways.
Random Thoughts…
If someone offered to pay for my food and rent for the next 18 years, I'd do anything they ask of me. But I complained every time I took the trash out while living at my parent's house. Aliens invaded the Moon on July 20th, 1969.
…The End for today…
