Thoughts for the day

Another day of clouds and rain. No complaints.

UN Security Council voted on immediate ceasefire in Gaza. US vetoed it.

Suddenly Musk is ‘Kill the bill’. I guess he got off his ketamine and sees the world as it really is.

I did a biopsy of my lymph nodes under my armpit. It was an easy procedure that only took about 15 minutes. Hoping for the best.

Everyone should send their birth certificates to Trump so he will understand that none of us were born yesterday.

Flagstaff must have cornered the market on those orange and white posts that direct traffic around construction. They are everywhere and every day there are more of them. The fastest and second fastest roads from my place to the hospital are closed completely. The next fastest road had 3 long lane closures. It takes real planning to get from the east side to downtown.

Unknown Civilizations that once ruled the world…

Dacian Kingdom© World History Encyclopedia

The Dacian Kingdom, situated in the Carpathian region (modern Romania), thrived from the 1st century BCE to 106 CE. Known for their fortified cities and defensive strategies, the Dacians developed a distinct culture.

Their society was organized around powerful tribal leaders, with Sarmizegetusa as their political and religious center. The Dacians' conflict with Rome culminated in their conquest, but their cultural legacy persists.

Artifacts and fortresses offer insights into their social structure and warfare. The Dacian influence is evident in Romanian traditions and folklore, highlighting their enduring impact on regional history.
