In ancient Greece and Rome, doctors used spider webs to make bandages for their patients. The doctors believed that these webs contained natural antiseptic and anti-fungal properties.

The Borley Rectory has some ghastly news for you. Built in 1862, this rectory is alleged to house ghosts that would cause your skin to grow.
In 1863 a nun was reported to have fallen in love with a monk. This evoked the ire of the church folks, her family and the wider population. While trying to elope, the lovebirds were captured and the monk was executed. the nun on the other hand was boarded up in a cellular and left to die.
In 1900, Reverend Henry Bull's daughters reported a sighting of the nun's ghost gliding across the estate. As if that were not to enough to drive them up the wall, a headless horseman frequently raced across the property. Talk about racing heartbeats and sweaty palms, see the Bull family.

Have you ever seen a ghost?

Are you aging faster than you should?

Most of us would like to maintain our youthful look as far as we can into our aging process. Some people might opt for chemical products as a means of keeping that youthful appearance while others are likely to try a variety of other remedies.
A group of scientists have sought to examine some of the things we can look for to first identify if we're speeding our way to getting old and strategies we can employ to mitigate it.

*Slow Walking
If your walking pace slows while you're in your 40s, it may be a sign you're aging faster than is typical.
Walking is one of the easiest and best exercises you can do . To start a walking program, begin with 5 minutes a day and build up to 30 minutes. you can challenge yourself by increasing your time until you're comfortable with your schedule.

*Sun Spots
Brown sun spots most often appear on your face, hands, and arms, especially for people over 50. Most are harmless and are caused by years of being in the sun.
You may want to consult with a doctor if the following is observed:
(a) They are black
(b) Change shape
(c) Bleed
(d) Have a rough border.

*Memory Problems
Mild memory problems go along with aging and in some instances can start as early as age 40.
Alzheimer and other types of dementia usually don't happen until age 65. And dementia is not a normal part of aging. To help your mind sharp:
Eat healthy
Stay socially active
Exercise.

*Achy Joints.
Not everyone gets stiff joints when they get older. But your chance of getting osteoarthritis go up as you age. Men tend to get symptoms after 4, and women after 55. There's no cur, but you can slow its progress. As little as an hour exercise a week might help. Do flexibility, strength-training, and aerobic exercises

*Dry Skin
Your skin makes less oil as you age . It can become dry and dull, especially if you're over 40. But dryness can be caused you don't do to prevent it.
Take short baths or showers - using warm - not hot -water
Clean your skin gently and moisturize well
Drink plenty of liquids
Don't spend a lot of time in dry air.

*Easy Bruising
Things get common once you pass 60.
Your skin gets thinner and loses fat . Your blood vessels also get more fragile. And even some medicines can lead to more bruising. See you doctor if you experience:
Lots of large bruises, especially on your chest, back, or face.
You started bruising after beginning a new drug.

*Thick Waistline.
Body fats tend to shift to your belly as you get older. This is especially true for women after menopause. No matter what your age, a thick waistline can come with health problems like heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Risks go up when your waist is more than 35 inches in women and 40 if you're a man.

All About The Music

5/23/2022

Ever so often a musician allows us to have a look in-depth what his soul wants to express where words would fail. The instruments used are varied. And sometimes the natural voice opens the heart of the singer and we see all the emotions splashed on a screen. We're consumed in the moment. We enjoy the journey.

What is amongst the greatest lead guitar riffs in pop music is displayed by two guitarist of The Eagles Band as they take us on an almost psychedelic trip in "Hotel California." Psychedelic indeed as even the lyrics seem to have us levitate as we listen . This song hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1977 and won the Grammy Award for "Record of the Year." Let's check it out.

Hotel California

On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard he mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit up the candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place(such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year(any time of year)
You will find it here

Her mind is Tiffany twisted
She got the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
She calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain
Please bring me my wine
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here"
"Since 1969"
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place( such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise(what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, "We're all just prisoners here"
"Of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find a passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man
"We're programmed to receive."
"You can check- out anytime you like"
"But you can never leave"

Songwriters: Don Felder; Don Henley: Glen Frey
