Video Delay

 It is the ninth hour so to speak and I have yet to finish putting a video together. I'm still hoping that I'll be able to complete it and record the audio before Wednesday but just in case I thought I would drop a line to let everyone know it may be late.

It seems that not only can Sims 4 be a cantankerous beast so can Bandicam, Bandicut and Audacity. What is it they say? It is the challenges that make life interesting and give you stories to tell your grandchildren.

I'm sure they will be so fascinated by their Grandmother's battles with video and sound production. ;)

It is Columbus Day! I know it has been renamed. Columbus Day came into being to commemorate the immigrants (Italians) who were hanged in New Orleans because they were immigrants (https://www.prageru.com/video/why-immigrants-should-love-columbus-day) It is true it was celebrated unofficially before it became a national holiday. It is a day that should be celebrated to honor all those that have come to this country and faced opposition.

Columbus actually never set foot on American soil (https://www.history.com/topics/exploration/christopher-columbus)

America in all its flaws would not be what it is today if not for those that did explore and those that founded it. It is a great country with freedoms. If it were not so then all the rhetoric going around would not be tolerated. One only has to look at history to see how nations without freedom of speech treated citizens who said anything that contradicted their narrative. We see it happening in our nation today and this is sad. In the words of a Senator (I don't know his name. I was all of maybe 8 years old when he said it.) 'If we tread upon the freedoms of one man then we tread upon the freedoms of all me.'
