The Many Images of People Trying To Keep Fit And Stay Healthy

Keeping fit is a task to many of us. In the age of trying to simplify everything from the way we cook, eat, have sex and moving from one destination to another, it's possible our brains have accepted that doing anything that requires much physical effort is outdated. The truth is our bodies still need some amount of physical exertion to stay healthy. "Oh gosh, this is too much." "I'm not going to be able to do that again today." "Leave me alone" "I'm Good" "I've got some pills here to stay healthy." These are some of the cries of anguish and often denial heard when the invitation is extended to join a friend, spouse or some acquaintance in keeping fit.
The truth is we're all going to die. But the choice available is- how much discomfort are you willing to endure when you are alive? Physical exercises don't stop us from dying but, can reduce some of the discomfort while we're still here. Now that summer is here, this is our opportunity to get on board. It could be in our home, at the park , a gym or wherever we find convenient. One caveat, watch the food you're eating. All the exercising will come to naught, if after you pile on the same thing that got you to where you are today. Happy Exercising!
Stay healthy . Cheers!

All About The Music

African American Music Month

June has been recognized as the month African American artists are appreciated for the contributed to the art. This contribution is so rich and staggeringly important when one considers the obstacles that were there.
We'll start with Billy Erskine

This Black baritone singer performed to integrated audiences in the 50s even though many radio stations were reluctant to play his music. One reason cited was that he was mobbed by white teenage girls at his concerts which didn't go down well with some sections of the segregation society at that time. Billy continued performing until the time of his death in 1993.
Many other talented African American Americans musicians experienced the same fate as Billy Erskine but continued to forge forward creating some of the richest music any American can be proud of. These include: Billie Holiday

Ella Fitzgerald

Louis Armstrong

Miles Davis

Nancy Wilson

Dinah Washington

Quincy Jones

Duke Ellington

Big Mama Thornton (You Ain't Nothing But A Hound Dog)
We'll continue this feature next week.

Did You Know?

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?
