Pondering Vaping

Image
First off I do not smoke nor do I vape. Never have, never will. I have a problem with just being around these kind of things. Now the reason I'm pondering this today is I thought I would give my opinion about why so many are getting so sick from vaping. You are inhaling moisture very quickly into your lungs. Each teeny tiny droplet is carrying all the chemicals that are in the vaping cartridge. Plus if the pen or whatever they call it, is not kept clean all the germs in it will grow into something even worse. So every time you puff you are adding the most dangerous mist possible into your lungs. The more you vape, the faster it will build up. The faster the health problems will begin. The best way is to never start smoking anything no matter how you do it. It is not cool.  If you want to be surrounded by steam go sit in a steam room. You can chill out, relax and do a little detoxing using good clean steam.   Well, that's all I have to say today. I hope every

Pondering events in history on August 25th

Image
I was trying to figure out what to write this time. So I chose things that happened on this date in history. These are only a few of things I found that caught my eye. 1910: Yellow cab is founded. This says 1908. So was this just the first one at that  time but it was not formal until 1910. And if this is the first one, where do the passengers sit, the rumble seat? 1908 National Association of colored Nurses formed. Is this date still celebrated today? I'm not a nurse so I don't know. 1943: German occupiers impose 72 hour work week Now that demand is something no country should make on its people. That's just saying you are slave to me and I don't see you as a real person. 1950: US President Harry Truman orders army to take control of railroad to avert a strike. Now was that once again an executive order given by a president? 1952: Puerto Rico becomes a US common wealth. Will there be celebrations there today? 1960: XVII

Pondering Nothing

There were a number of things I could have written about that have been on my mind this week.  Like people not knowing or understanding the consequences of their actions. (President Dweeb) The weather. Someone being hidden off the Ice Age Trail for three years and no one noticing. ( I am hiking the same trail. But have not reached that part. So don't blame me for not noticing.) But this morning as I was trying to think about what to write I finally decided to write about: Do you know there is a lot of nothing out there. Nothing to say. Nothing to do. I wise man once said nothing. Nothing to see here. Just nothing. They got nothing on you. There is nothing like doing nothing. Nothing on you. Everything is nothing with a twist. I'm nothing. The queen of nothing. Feel nothing. Nothing lasts forever. Be nothing. Nothing is under control. Absolutely nothing. Stop at nothing. Nothing up.  Nothing down. Nothing I can do

Pondering signs

Image
I'm going to try and post something on the weekends. At least that is the plan right now. But I know from time to time, life will get in the way. Yesterday at work for some reason this idea popped into my head: You see this sign. So you show up the next day and the sign is still there. It's then you realize, that tomorrow never comes because it's always today. I told a few people about this. Most thought it was an interesting idea to think about and laughed. A few said that if they saw that sign it would tick them off. What would do if you saw this sign? It does make you think about things. Things that are promised for tomorrow. So you wait and you wait. Hoping for the better tomorrow.  Sometimes it's worth the wait. Sometimes that's all you find yourself doing, waiting. It's times like that you should know that tomorrow will never come until you do something today. There are so many signs out there that we miss. We either don
