Whose hand would YOU choose?
 
This post today is going to ask two questions from you.  As you may have guessed I’m going to ask you whose hand would you choose to hold, grasp and learn as much as you could in 24 hours? 
 
My first question is if you could go back in time and take someone’s hand whom you’ve known and hold it for 24 hours who’s hand would it be?  For me it again would be my dad.  There is so much information I would like to know but most likely never find out.  … (26 comments)

Interesting fact about an origin of a word we use today. The Capuchin Crypt in Rome consists of five chapels and a corridor 60 meters long—and it is decorated with the bones of 4,000 deceased monks.

I found this first one very interesting. A male emperor angelfish lives together with up to five female mates. If the emperor angelfish dies, one of the females turns into a male fish and becomes the leader of the group.  The last one for today is: Romans invented central heating and would warm rooms … (11 comments)

I wonder if you could go back in time and choose one person who you would like to emulate who would that person be?  I’m not talking about your faith but someone who has reached out and touched you.  A family member, teacher, pastor, old boyfriend or girlfriend, of course the list is endless.  So who would that person be?

Sugar and cocoa are often added to cigarettes, a fact many diabetic smokers are unaware of.  Claims for the benefits of smoking in sixteenth-century England rested in large part on Galen’s (A.D. 129-200) theory of the four humors, which asserted that the body was composed of hot, cold, wet, and dry humors. Smoking was … (11 comments)
