Today’s Quotes

Today’s Memes

Thoughts for the day

The weather just doesn’t want to be November. The local ice cream truck still comes through the neighborhood every afternoon.

The Dodgers have their Series win…for the second time in a row. It took extra innings, again…but a win is a win.

The Colorado Buffaloes are having a bad season. They lost again on Saturday.

Flagstaff also has those Flock Cameras that are so controversial. The Flagstaff city council is beginning another debate on their use. The cameras take a picture of every vehicle license plate that passes one of their many cameras around any given city. They say this assists police in tracking down criminals. Here in Flagstaff, they have helped police in several local serious crimes. I must say it sure sounds like 1984’s Big Brother. With all the AI stuff that invades our privacy, I am on the fence as to whether these are OK or bad.

Animals From Native American Legends And What They Symbolize

Eagle

The eagle is one of the most respected and sacred animals in Native American culture. Soaring higher than other birds, the eagle is thought to carry prayers to the creator, acting like a bridge between this world and the spirit realm above.

Eagle feathers are treasured and only given in special ceremonies to honor acts of bravery or leadership and remind people to aim for a higher purpose, vision, and strong spiritual connection.

Boomers Were Forced to Memorize These Facts—And They’re All Useless Now…

Blood Is Blue Inside Your Body Until It Hits Oxygen

At some point, a teacher probably told you that blood is blue until it reaches the air, which is why veins look blue under your skin. Sounds scientific, right? Nope! Blood is always red—veins just appear blue because of how light interacts with your skin. Yet, for some reason, this myth spread like wildfire, and we all had to memorize it like a hard fact. If only we’d questioned it back then!

Random Thoughts…

I hate when women have writing on their shirt's because I don't want to risk reading it.
It's amazing how different the phrases "alcohol free" and "free alcohol" are.
I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.
That moment when you need your glasses in order to find your glasses.
