    I live in an area with no street lights and I’ve gone for walks in the dark with my dog and a head lamp, it is crazy how dark it actually is. I only do this in the winter when it’s dark by 4:30pm! And not very often, too scary because it’s also a wooded area. I’m in BC Canada Rocky Mountains

    Something about the life expectancy I did when I did Civil War museum tours went like this. I asked the group who had ever had an antibiotic and divided the group. The much smaller group who had never had them I announced was the still living group. for the rest, "I regret to inform you that you're now a statistic." And for what this life can do, go look at a 30 year old Afghan.
