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.
One of the problems with media these days is that the audience expects instant news and analysis. Extra points ($$$) if the headline is outrageous. The old adage "think before you speak" isn't honored, neither is fact-checking nor truth.
I knew about Ceasar, but was surprised to find out how far back that dates goes when it comes to disasters. It's no wonder Shakespeare went for that date
Talk Tuesday! What would you prefer...talking pets, or humans with heightened animal sensibilities?
If it comes to preference I guess I have to choose humans with heightened animal sensibilities. My dogs and horses can see spirit walkers before I do and warn. Serious vicious storms are acknowledged by pets and wild creatures before they are apparent on the horizon. Some scientists think humans used to have better senses and lost them in an evolution. Or just forgot how to train them and keep them as we age from childhood. On days when someone uses a percussion bomb anywhere in our area animals often are extremely frigidity even before the explosion.
When I see news broadcasts about Syria or Afghanistan I worry about the way it is affecting the pet and wildlife populations. Most animals have peaceful natures unless put upon by violence.
There are books out now written by people who talk to animals? One women will teach her readers how to talk to animals. The jist is animals think and can invade the thoughts of humans. I think I reviewed one of these books, but I could not remember the author and when I tried to find it in my reviews I couldn't find it so I guess I should not reference it. It was a library book. Some animals seem more susceptible to communication with humans than others. Animals that are abused withdraw into their own natures. Quantum physics is a lark when you take in some of the theories about life on our planet.
The more science, biology, and physics you learn the more you find out life is not as it seems and war is a more serious disruption to life on the earth than anyone realizes.
