Last Night Apology, Submission, Curling Gold, Unfortunate Names

Ok, I am sorry about last night, I was not feeling good and went to bed really early.  I think I am better today but am unable to put any weight on my legs for some reason.  Getting on and off the toilet was tough this morning.  It is now just after 6 am here so in a little bit I will get on my bed and do some serious stretching.  Hopefully it is not something major, I don't figure it is.  I need a few things from the store so I will call my cousin later and see if he can pick some stuff up for me.  I hate asking for people to help even though I know they will say yes because as a person in a wheelchair I take my independence seriously and I think I can do everything.  Most people I know in manual chairs are like that.  I just do not like to look weak in the eyes of anyone. 

I did find a new place where I can submit short stories, it is a website of http://www.alternate-history-fiction.com/.  So that is good, they look to connect you with buyers, so that is another future revenue stream.  If you want to be a trillionaire I would suggest that you get into asteroid mining.  Recently I talked about an object, more likely an asteroid, that came from out of our own solar system.  If you can mine that for the precious metals it has, maybe even some we don't have on our own planet Earth.  If you do decide to get into that don't forget the little guy that gave you the idea!

So anyway, let me talk about some stuff.  A big thing happened while most of us were sleeping, the United States of America won its first gold medal in curling.  That is a pretty big deal.  I have started to like curling as a sport more and more in the last few years.  Of course a cold weather country is leading the medal count, Finland, the United States is 3rd with 23.  I think that is a pretty good haul.

Names can lead to unfortunate moments, like some of these people.  I will post the article after this paragraph.  It is from Listverse, which is one of my favorite websites, you can learn so much from these great people.  One younger boy had the unfortunate name of the most wanted man in the world after 9/11, Osama Bin Laden.  I am not going to ruin the article for you but it is and can be a terrible thing.  Let me know what you think; http://listverse.com/2018/02/24/top-10-people-whose-names-gave-them-problems/

Well, that is all for now, I will be back with some more stuff later this evening.  I hope this post finds you in good spirits and enjoy, take care!
