TASTING THE SOUP

There are some areas of study I find very fascinating. Among my favorites are history, politics, crime investigation, the Titanic and the study of old archaeological finds.

To even think of how inhabitants of the world lived 100, 200 or 1,000 years before us is intriguing. I have to wonder about the cave men and women. When I think of the cave man era, I tend to remember Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble. Of course, we all know that life back then was nothing like it was portrayed in the long running animated cartoon.

We have all watched a lot of TV and I am inclined to believe that the days of the old west were just like they are depicted on television.
