Luckily I’ve never experienced one of these. I do have friends, readers, and family that have experienced them. My sister says it’s like someone is standing on your chest and you can’t breathe. My Dad has had panic attacks for most of his life, even though no one knew what they were at the time.

Take a look at this video. It will provide you with some terrific information.

Have a great Tuesday!

Until next time…

I am currently watching a three-part series on secret societies and really enjoying it. This motivated me to find a short video for you to watch. I hope you enjoy it.

For those of you who are interested, I have a subscription to Curiosity Stream. The $20 per year price tag is well worth it. So many informative shows, with a huge variety of topics to choose from. I am not an affiliate but really enjoy watching the shows here. I learn a truckload each time I watch a new show.

Have a great Tuesday, folks. Enjoy the short little video and we’ll see you again tomorrow.

Until next time…

Today’s lesson is about the various numbers that have been banned in various periods and how numbers today are also protected or banned from use. I hope you enjoy this one. I found it intriguing and I learned a few things.

Have a great Tuesday, folks!

I am an avid coffee drinker, and although expensive, I do enjoy a Starbucks coffee now and then, Caramel Macchiato or the Flat White being my two favorites. In light of my coffee tastes, I was intrigued by this Ted Talk on how Starbucks failed to take hold in Australia. I hope you enjoy this little caffeinated adventure into the “down under”.

Happy Tuesday, folks. Make it a great one!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Ted Talk Tuesday – Reading Books

I wanted to share this video from TedED, because it touched on many of the reasons why I enjoy reading. Not only is reading a great way to learn, but it is relaxing, gives me an excuse to sit in my easy chair with a nice cup of coffee or tea, and engage with a story, learn something, or do a little of both.

I hope you enjoy this video and are inspired to get in a bunch of reading in this new year. For those of you who are unaware, Goodreads, a reading app, has a reading challenge every year. It’ll track every book you read and help you stay on track with your reading goals. I always shoot for 50-60 books a year. It’s a great challenge, but not one to get too stressed about. One year I read around 70 books, last year I fell short and only read 40 or so books.

Here’s to many literary adventures and much learning in 2022!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Ted Talk Tuesday – Black Friday

Here is one person’s take on Black Friday. A day that marks the beginning of Christmas shopping in America. I do not go out on Black Friday, because it is so insane, but many people, like my stepdaughters, live for this day. They get up before dawn and head to their favorite stores.

In this short 3-minute (+) video, Black Friday’s origin is explained. You’ll be interested who came up with the idea. I hope you are as excited about the holiday season as I am. It’s a great time of year. In fact it is my favorite time of year. I get in a lot of reading, writing, and of course, video game playing in, during the winter months, because in Michigan, there is nothing else to do, simply because it is snowing outside and cold, and all the rest. Yes, there are many who ski, hunt, and do a lot of outdoor things. For me, my 20 years of service gave me all the outdoor living I’ll ever need to experience. Now it’s a cup of hot coffee, a good book, and looking at the snow, thanking God I do not have to live in that anymore.

Well, that’s it for today. I hope all of you have a great Tuesday!

Until next time…

Dave
