Thoughts for the day
The sun is peaking through the high clouds.
Cooler than I like, but a decent day.
I saw my doctor about my intestinal
mess. He said it sounds counter intuitive but use Benefiber. Great. He also had
his 9-year-old Golden Lab/Standard Poodle mix. Such a friendly and beautiful
dog.
I’m looking forward to our discussion
group tomorrow. The topic is America at A Global Crossroads. It sould be interesting
for sure.
Forgotten American Heros…
Lewis Hayden
Lewis Hayden was a former enslaved
person who became a prominent abolitionist and conductor on the Underground
Railroad. His home in Boston served as a vital stop for many seeking freedom.
Hayden's courageous actions and his
commitment to the abolitionist cause were instrumental in aiding countless
individuals on their journey to liberty.
His work extended beyond helping
escapees, as he actively campaigned for equal rights and justice. Hayden's
legacy as a leader in the fight against slavery continues to inspire those who
advocate for human rights and equality.
Common Misconceptions…
“Crossbows were considered to be
weapons so dangerous (as any commoner could have easily killed a knight) so
that their use was banned by the Church. In reality there is not a single ecclesiastical
document that would single out crossbows as a 'banned' weapon.”
Random Thoughts…

at Alderson Federal Prison Camp, her prison nickname was “M. Diddy”
The Commodore 64 is the best selling
