Thoughts for the day
Another nice winter day. Thanks to
everyone who remembered my birthday. It was a good day.
The Friday press conference between Zelensky
and Trump and Vance sure took a turn that no one wanted or need to see. This
should never happen with cameras running. There will be difficult days ahead
for Ukraine, and the US.
I did observe the Feb 28 economic blackout
day. Basically not buying from large corporations. I’m not sure if it did any
good.
Forgotten American Heros…
John Lewis
John Lewis was a prominent civil
rights leader and advocate for racial equality. As a young activist, he was a
key figure in the civil rights movement of the 1960s, participating in crucial
events like the Selma to Montgomery marches.
His dedication to nonviolent protest
and social justice was unwavering.
Lewis later served as a U.S.
Congressman, continuing his fight for equality and human rights. His legacy as
a champion for civil rights and his lifelong commitment to justice continue to
inspire generations.
Common Misconceptions…
“The reason people didn’t smile in
old photos is because early photography was inspired by painting, where smiling
was seen as inappropriate while stern looks appeared more formal for portraits.”
Random Thoughts…
Any opposite sides on a die are equal
to 7. 1/6, 2/5, 3/4.

The Atlantic Ocean is named after
