Although I haven't posted lately, my friends here will want to know: after a more than 50 year friendship I am grieving! You can email mainefun40 at gmail https://t.co/Ilzqz04zjz
White canes usually have reflective white coverings (tape or paint) and also have a reflective red tip. They are wayfinding tools, not weapons. I have travelled safely with a white cane for over 55 years. Many of us using these canes have an explorer mentality.
Today, October 15 is National White Cane Safety day. In Maine drivers must stop for a white cane user crossing the road. Anywhere that is, not necessarily in a crosswalk. But, it is necessary for a white cane user to pay attention. A white cane signifies legal blindness.
@SteveCollinsSJ In my book, you're a fine upstanding journalist and a decent columnist. That's not just flattery Steve; you've had the courage to post such a column to remind people and, if they can't take it well ... it needed to be said.
Amsterdam is quite a distance from our speed limit ideas. Could you manage to stay within a 30KPH speed limit? By my calculations, that's a little less than 18MPH
. @MineDot1 30KPH for a new inner city speed limit? Looks good to me; less noise, shorter braking distances and, best of all---so-oh-so much safer for pedestrians. What do you think? https://t.co/tb50oU57zi
@LadyOTrout Magnesium seems to help. I have tried lots of things but the magnesium does the trick for me. I am not a bot, I am a person that weighs about 140 and I'm moderately active---walking etc; I'm taking 200mg of magnesium. Hope this helps.
Last Thursday, Reid the cairn terrier moved on to whatever is next. He was a very good boy and even now, I feel some strong emotions putting this here but; he has often been mentioned with connected fun so a goodbye is in order. He was loved! He is missed!
If my #House was burning and I #left town, it would be called irresponsible. What shall we call the #Republican house members? Well---it isn't nice to say those sorts of things so #You fill in the blank.
@vapaolella Glad to know you're safely on the ground and in country. That's a first giant step; new folks, new curiosities! If you ever have a minute, see if you can alt tag your images; I'd love that; but if you don't, i'll survive.
Since there's more time left, check your summer bucket list. No shirking though, #2023Summer won't wait---maybe run a 5K or something? There's 1 in Portland Maine September 16 and, your entry will support Maine Brain Aneurysm #Awareness
he #NYTimes features this under #Culture? • The rapper Tory Lanez was sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting Megan Thee Stallion during an argument in 2020. What culture? #Gun culture
Who's Data? Your data; who's car? Your #car; Who owns the data, yourr data from the car you own? Well---you don't get to decide. Drive an antique car, leave your phone in your pocket: https://t.co/7TeFhDGvd1 (via Streetsblog)
