Paris Skeletons

It's been a cold hump day but the weekend warms up nicely with possible 50's next week. I'm hoping that was our last significant snow the other day. It's hard to imagine these snow piles melting by opening day. Last year it took until April 8th for the snow to finally disappear.

Shania Twain announced she is going on a farewell tour and she will never tour again! I haven't heard that name in ages. Of course she hasn't toured anywhere in 11 years so I'm sure it isn't for the money. 

It was 25 years ago that Hank Gathers died on a basketball court in front of thousands. An irregular heartbeat did him in. By all accounts even years later a tremendous young man who played some great ball!

They were building a supermarket in Paris when they unearthed at least 200 skeletons. The grounds used to be home to a hospital. The bones are at least 300 years old and perhaps older. They were neatly stacked probably at the same time and speculation is that they died from the small pox or something else. Too bad they didn't have vaccinations back then!

Later
