Let’s hear it for one of the greatest, most courageous explorers of all time.
Remember when Reader’s Digest was the magazine with the largest circulation by several miles f, and that within those pages, “You never heard disparaging word”. Now-a-days in journalism, displacing words is the holy grail.
A pregnant dog is a dog full of puppies. How great is that!
I hope you all had the chance to get a glimpse of the gigantic Hunters Moon last night. It really does do something to your heart. Maybe it is just the awe of nature. But then, maybe there is some real magic in it.
The Question:

Putin launched a major assault on Ukraine last night. Just when you thought Ukraine was gaining an upper hand and all the fighting was in the East, Putin brought the war back to all of the country.

I really wasn’t paying too much attention to the Georgia senate race. I was just hoping it regained a little sanity after two years ago when Trump messed it up for Repubs, But I guess he did it again by backing the great football player Hershal Walker, who now appear to have done what many football players do --. get one woman or more pregnant. And then obscuring the truth. When the abortion mess was first revealed I took like any good cynic, just another last-ditch smear campaign by the opposition to defeat a leader in the poll's candidate. But Repubs want the seat badly, so don’t be surprised at anything that may happen going forward. Politics is not similar to real life, as we all should know by now.

What happened to the LA Rams and their genius coach McVey? They are killing my picks.
The Answer:
The Eroica is Beethoven’s 3rd Symphony. Many think it is his grandest. Eroica means “Heroic” and many feel the Beethoven’s Third changed the way symphonies would be written forever.
Here’s an oldie that may reflect on the current view of the Peach State.
