My Birthday, Snoke Rumor, New Traditions, Devastating Wildfires in California

Hey there everyone, I hope you are doing good today!  First off, today is my 39th birthday but I feel a little younger but not on days like this.  Snowed all day and it was freezing, not good on my bones.  I had to get out and help my friend with her flat tire because I am always the one who rescues her.  I'm just that nice and good of a guy, too bad not enough people see that in me but I will be getting out more so hopefully things will change.  Even though it was nasty out, I made it to the gym and some other running around.  And a little later I made a nice dinner, those single potatoes that you can microwave are pretty good.  I am going to write a little history post today and will write one tomorrow.  Last thing, the great Stan Lee has passed, as I am sure a lot of people have heard.  He was such a great man that created so much and he will be remembered, EXCELSIOR!

Star Wars Day!  There are so many rumors and leaks going on for Episode IX, which does not have a name yet, but I really like this rumor and hope it comes true, I will add the article for all to read.  I will talk a little on it.  It concerns Snoke, who I wish they would have gone more into his past in Episode VIII but they didn't.  Hopefully they do in IX.  Anyway, here is that article, enjoy; https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/movies/a24847352/star-wars-9-snoke-darth-plagueis-theory/

So we all know about traditions, like Thanksgiving, diamond engagement rings but did you know that they are not as old as you think.  The first Thanksgiving did not have the normal stuff we expect on the holiday like turkey, mashed potatoes and rolls.  They more than likely had a lot of venison, seafood or duck.  Thanksgiving was not a holiday until the early 1930's when FDR put it there to boost holiday sales.  Now, diamonds, this was completely made up by De Beers, who own most of the diamond mines in the world, to boost sales.  Nowadays a diamond ring costs thousands of dollars and they are probably worthless because there are so many in the Earth.  But here is a list of newer traditions from Listverse; http://listverse.com/2018/11/12/10-traditions-that-are-way-newer-than-we-think-they-are/

I have mentioned before how I am not a fan of Californians but I do feel for the people out there losing their houses and I hope something good happens quickly. 

Well, that is it for me tonight.  I really hope you all have a great day or night, take care!
