Happy Halloween Everyone

Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum,

I smell the blood of a little one.

If they crawl,

or be they small,

I must give candy to them

ALL!

Happy Halloween My Dear!

We'll Talk Again Tomorrow!

The Right Of Passage

The Right Of Passage

One definition I saw says,

"As teenagers transition from childhood to adulthood, they naturally engage in behaviors that can sometimes be perceived as dumb or risky, especially by adults

. These behaviors, often amplified by peer pressure and a developing brain, can be seen as attempts to explore their independence, test boundaries, and establish a sense of self and belonging outside of their family structure."

I think that sums it up pretty well.

Of all the dumb stuff I did as a child, there is only one that I can laugh about now because I thought kids today would be missing out on it.

Licking The Nine-Volt Battery!

 

    Good news for all you parents out there in the world who never needed an alkaline battery because everything you own uses a lithium battery.

 

      Yes, the brand we all know so well has come up with a series of nostalgic tastes that will help us go down memory lane.

Like licking a Nine-Volt Battery!

A Story I Found Interesting

   Looking at one of my favorite websites today, I found this article.

***** 

Psychedelic Mushrooms Reduced Human Cellular Aging by 57%, Increased Lifespan in Mice 30%

By Andy Corbley -Jul 23, 2025 for the Good News Network

   Researchers have discovered that the active compound in psychedelic mushrooms can extend lifespan and reduce cellular aging by 50% in human cells and 30% in elderly mice.

   Within the first 3 months, the mice receiving psilocybin exhibited signs of youth, including fewer instances of greying and hair loss—including a reversal of these symptoms—and a general improvement in physical activity.

   Of course, that is just part of the story. Click on the link above to get the full article.

   "In three months mice were exhibiting signs of YOUTH! Sign me up!

   Maybe that is why everyone says I look so young. It's not because I act so immature but because I lived in Texas in the late !970s with a bunch of good friends who loved shrooming as much as I did.

   I give all the credit to my friend Rudy, who we liked to call Egg-Head because he was probably the smartest one of the bunch. He researched all about mushrooms at a time when you had to read books on the subject. There were no cellphones or the internet at this time, only a building called, a Library, where you could research almost anything.

    This was actually written at the very end of the article. Their disclaimer;

PBS Passport

   I finally donated to my local PBS station and got Passport for doing so.

   If you don't know what Passport is I will let PBS tell you.

PBS Passport

is a member benefit that provides extended access to an on-demand library of PBS programming.

It's available to donors of participating PBS stations who meet their local station's specific requirements.

 

   I donated because I love to watch shows like Sherlock,

Astrid,

and of course

Nova

and

Nature!

 

   I really can't imagine that in the future there might not be anymore PBS or NPR!

   Yes, I will be donating to NPR soon because I need my weekly fix of

Wait Wait..... Don't Tell Me!

Firing Of Stephen Colbert

   The firing of Stephen Colbert by CBS came as a shock to a lot of people, especially since he has the highest ratings for a Late Night talk show host. But this is not unprecedented.

   Have you ever heard of The Smothers Brothers? Their one hour comedy show was canceled in the late 1960s by "CBS" at the time when they were one of the network's highest rated shows.

   Sound Familiar?

   They constantly ridiculed President Nixon for his policies and the handling of the Vietnam War. At the time, it was well publicized that Nixon was putting pressure on CBS to get rid of the Brothers because of all negativity from their show.

   Sound Familiar?

   (Old Pumpkin Face hasn't started a war yet but it's not because he isn't trying!)

   Yet, the Oligarchy, Robber Barons, Republicans, and Billionaires of this country will never let its citizens, get along with one another. Hatred and Division between Races makes them money and gives them power over people, who rather blame anybody, but themselves, for their problems. Because the Rich told them it's okay to do so!

 

   It has even happen to me. I had a guess writer (Dave) back when Pumpkin Face was elected the first time around and he criticized Taco for his prejudices, policies, and the man himself when the long arm of the Rich came knocking on my blog and told me, first; I need to take the post down or I will loose my ability to blog, second; they will no longer advertise on my blog until I do, taking away what little income this was generating in the first place and third; they are going to change the way I sent global emails to my core group of followers. Which has declined ever since. Effectively killing my blog.
