Revival

Hey there, everyone.  Now that I revived this old blog from years ago, I'll be adding more  content to it as you'll be seeing.  Some of what I will be sharing is some political thoughts.  Some you'll agree with, and some you won't.  I have never identified with any specific political party, but I'm more liberal than conservative for sure.  So although some of my posts won't be pro-Democratic you can be sure that all of them will be anti-Republican.  That's all I will say now, so stay tuned.  And remember to "Follow" along just by clicking the button to the right.

Welcome to the Lunatic House

Here's another building at the Wood County Historical Museum in Bowling Green, Ohio.  It's the Lunatic House from 1885.  It was used for the "insane patients" at the Wood County Infirmary.  It had two floors, 26 x 40 feet, with the bottom floor divided into cells, and the upper floor used as a hospital.  It cost $1,700 to build.  I'm glad I was never made to stay there.

The Lonely Shepherd

I discovered these musicians not long ago and have become fascinated.  What do you think?

Welcome to the House

Back in the old days in Wood County, Ohio at the County Home, or the Infirmary. there was a place known as the Pest House.  According to the sign posted on the house it was a place used to "isolate residents with infectious diseases from the the rest of the infirmary household."  It doesn't sound like a very nice place or a place I'd like to be kept.  Gosh, how we have progressed since those "old" days.

Hello Friends

Hello Friends. I'm trying something new here tonight.  For the past several years I've had this blog on Davey1.Org that has been setting here dormant for quite a long time.  I'm going to try to revive it and post more content here, and I hope you'll join me.  There will be some surprises from time to time, and hopefully you won't be too bored.  I just want to share a few things here that won't be posted directly to my Facebook page, but when you see a link on Facebook my post will be just a click away.

If they would only do Something.

Last week in Florida 17 innocent people died in another school shooting that could have possibly been avoided.

Some of you will disagree with what I'm about to say.  However, I have the right to say it.  If you don't want to continue reading, then don't.

Admittedly, I haven't read a lot about this incident.  I don't need to, as long as I know that 17 people are dead that could be alive today if this wouldn't have happened.  I am in favor of stricter gun control laws, and those could be enacted in this country if Congress and the President would just do so.  If just one of those laws saved one life in this land it would be worth it.  That one life could be a friend or relative of you or I.

The argument from the gun activists that I don't understand is that they think one more law will take away their Second Amendment right to own a gun.  It won't.  But if that law is what is required to keep guns out of the hands of anyone who isn't fit to have one [like the shooter in Florida], then I'm in favor of it.  Doing nothing is not an option.  Doing nothing will not stop the gun violence.  Congress and the President need to act and act decisively.  But they won't.

Don't @ me.
