A Journal to impart knowledge and facts
July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

Fun Fact Friday! On this day in 1926, Thomas Edison spoke on the radio for the first time. What do you think he would say today about podcasting?

You can believe it. I had to look up the word podcast to find out what you were talking about. *Smile* O.K. I use podcasts on my kindle. So, I just never actually think of them by a name.

I really think Thomas Edison would have to recover from culture shock before you explain podcasts to him. Edison was a forward reaching individual. He would have recovered quickly and wanted to know more about all the technology available today.

On the way to learn more about Mr. Edison I discovered that scientists are delving into the way sound waves are affecting the weather. It seems they may have a lot to do with the greenhouse affects that are hitting the earth. This was interesting information I will have to do more research before I can comment.If it is true how will the knowledge affect technology?


I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Thomas A. Edison
