Whether it's a historical fact, trivia, skills, a language, or project we are never too old to learn something new. And there are so many sources you can utilize to learn something, like online browsing, books, taking a workshop class, and even discussions with friends. One source I often will use are You Tube tutorials to learn how to do projects around the home. Recently I learned a new hack to use when caulking a large deep hole in the wall. Partially fill in the hole with bathroom tissue paper then add your caulk. It was very effective. Another method I use is doing Google or Alexa Searches on people from Documentaries I watch on Netflix. I saw a recent movie called "Death By Lightening" which got me interested in James Garfield, the President who was assassinated and died in 1881. One thing I found out is he could have survived. So, can you share a most recent thing you learned and the source it came from? Maybe I'll learn something new. Photo-Pinterest-learning

My neighbours cats don't like the new treats I bought them. They sniffed at them, and that was it. I looked at the pack and found the answer They are actually dog treats

I always learn something new every day here on a myriad of subjects. We had a large boom and fireball this week that I learned was an asteroid. They are picking up pieces of it in Medina County.

@dgobucks226 Interesting about Garfield. Sad that he got poor medical treatment. There was another meteor sighted in the Greater Cleveland Area on Monday.

The person with the most Academy Awards is Walt Disney. I heard that recently due to the Oscars being last week. I believe he had/has 26 Oscars. That won’t make you win at Jeopardy though.

Well as mentioned in my discussion, I learned Star Wars oven mitts aren't worth as much as I thought they would be.
