Get It Right And Be On The Right Side.

Baseball from a beginner

You know what I like about baseball? Maybe you don’t care... but I like baseball from the fact of the many different batters. You never know if they will get a hit or strike out. You keep trying to play their game, hah. Little things, like the fact of the two teams; and that keeps it interesting. 

I’ve new to baseball and have been analyzing the game in order to solidify my interest in the game, and its truely neat! Obviously there are different styles and strengths in each team. You can also learn standards. You can’t make first base without a good hit into the outfield.  And you can’t pop the ball into the air - too easy to see and catch - you’re out! And you get an out for your team’s chance at being up and getting points. 

Obvious little things like these make up the unwritten rules of baseball, an interesting American pastime.

The Takeover of America

   Suppose there was a takeover of the United States. Now, suppose that it was so insideous, so far reaching that you never even knew. It was so far reaching, far down, deep down, inside, to your very existence, to your own soul. The takeover was so complete, so sure, so true, that you couldn’t tell from yourself, and you didn’t want to play the fool and admit this. The takeover would have to be…

Want to take a Ride?

The American River bike trail, ARBT, runs with no bumps or potholes, nearly, from downtown Sacramento Discovery Park to old Folsom, both are Pony Express stops. It's 35 miles of ''green traveling'' along a well maintained asphalt pathway following the American and Sacramento rivers. Some spots are even being fenced off and replanted. . Drinking water and portable outhouses are provided, no worries for tired riders or bike tires. Very scenic, lots of trees, plants, bushes, Grey  or Ground Squirrels, the occasional pet, and of course, bicycle riders. There are many access roads from Folsom, Sacramento and places in between. Many will drive from Folsom, park the car, ride or raft to Sacramento, driving or bicycling back home. I rode one way in 3 hours, very scenic. You could be careful by having an extra tire, but that's just in case. . From the trees and such, it's a quiet ride mostly, but the trail crosses under several more than 2 lane roads, it's ''God's bicycle country''. In any case, you will see only bicyclists or joggers of both sexes only. Many days will see empty trails; however, it's a good sign in seeing others, knowing your bicycling efforts are not alone. . There is at least one sign, thank you Department of Public Works and County Parks, with 100's of Golden Poppies, California's State Flower, this 2014 Spring. . So we gravel roads run parallel for maintenance trucks that travel the route and keep all up to shape. It's well travelled, but well maintained. A riding rules and large map are available from county parks.

WORLDS OLDEST DRESS

It is almost impossible to imagine that any item of clothing from ancient times had survived to the present day. The world’s oldest dress, dating between 3482 BC and 3130 BC years, is named, “The Tarkham Dress” since it’s discovery in 1913 from the town where it was found. It is a very finely woven linen apparel. Alice Stevenson, curator of the Museum of Egyptian Archeology says, “The dress has provided people with a real sense of the antiquity and longevity of the ancient Egyptian state and society.

As soon as you determine your own freedom, somebody else steps in. What did I ever do to them? Nothing! I’m an American! I want my rights! I demand my freedoms! Nothing has stood in my private way, nothing should. No trades accepted.
