Thoughts for the day

A great late summer day.

Both the Broncos and the AZ Cardinals won yesterday. I’m happy.

I’ve been using Walgreens for my scripts for many years. They have changed a lot. It is no longer easy to refill on the phone, and the staff said to use the Walgreen’s app. I reordered a thyroid script on Sat. morning about 7am. The earliest available day to pick it up was today. I called to check and they don’t have the refill order. Time to start all over.

Several friends were at the Navajo Nation fair in Window Rock. I got texts from each of them this morning saying it was a great fair.

Myths from Medieval Times

Medieval People Did Not Believe That The World Would End

Does anyone remember when people predicted that the apocalypse would occur in the year 2000? Some historians propose that people in the Middle Ages thought the same thing about the year 1000. However, there is little evidence that people actually believed this.

In the 10th century, Pope Sylvester II predicted that the Judgement would happen in 1000. Although some believed him, there is no evidence of mass terror or even widespread belief. The concept of a 1,000-year-long reign exists in the Book of Revelations, but few people put much stock in it.

 Things That Worked Better Before They Were “Improved” by Technology

Alarm Clocks That Simply Told Time

Old-fashioned alarm clocks had one job and did it well – wake you up on time. No screens to disrupt your sleep, no complicated settings to navigate, and no worries about software glitches or missed alarms due to automatic updates. That satisfying mechanical tick-tock even served as a gentle white noise machine.
