I think tomorrow is the Birthday of Confutus.

As he is into independent learing on a variety of subjects including history and linking subjects together, I thought time travel would be a good theme. That's right! We can go to different rooms for the time travel experience.

I think I will head over to the Colonial Era and then swing by the Victorian Era. [Smile] [Smile] [Smile]

Happy early birthday! [Party] Medieval times in England where, while women had no rights, they were treated with chivalrous behavior. Men fought in the lady's honor and fought honorably or the lady could absent herself from him in the middle of a tourney. We may have no property rights but still weild power. V.

There is an anecdote about Winston CHurchill during the women's suffrage debate in England.

Friend of Churchill: "If women get the vote, why, they'll soon be ruling the world!"

Churchill: "More than they do already?"

Hi V! I am going to join you in the land of Chivalry! I should let Tyro know as that is one of her areas of expertise!

Oh, Darn!! A Birthday Party, for me, and I missed it!!! I hit the half century mark, too. I wonder if it's going to hit back.

Well, I got a calls from my Dad, (who never calls unless it's a dire emergency) and from three of my six brothers, and my older son, and a brother from my ward brought over a cake, and we had a nice long friendly chat. That's the most I've celebrated a birthday in years.

As for other interesting stuff, I'm prepared to discuss either the Revolutionary Era or the Victorian era on my web sites. Now, if you want to discuss the Victorian era, the American Revolution, or any other time period (or subject), you're invited to visit my Sapience Knowledge Base and find the appropriate period (or country) to sample what I've already written, and then find the Independent Learning Forum and register to post a comment.

Confutus, I'm glad that you had a nice Birthday! And being that this is a time travel party, you can travel back and time and join the party in action on your Birthday!
