Happy 4th of July

Wishing everyone a safe and Happy 4th of July tonight because I won't be on Opera tomorrow.

Loretta Lynn's Haunted Mansion

I am not a Country Music Fan, but when I watched the movie, Coal Miner’s Daughter, I became a fan of Loretta Lynn. I initially watched this movie because I love Tommy Lee Jones.

Loretta did a television special called Loretta Lynn’s Haunted mansion. In this special I learned that she owned the town of Hurricane Mills, TN. Loretta Lynn believes her town is haunted by the Anderson family that lived in the mansion many years ago. She described incidents in which she, her family, people who work for her, and guests to her town experienced being haunted by the Anderson family.

A couple of weeks ago, a friend and I visited Loretta Lynn’s Ranch. We did not experience being haunted while we were at the ranch, but when I looked at the pictures I took, some really weird things appeared in at least one of them. I do not know if it is the sun, the angle, or…a haunting (I don’t believe in ghosts!), but something is definitely wrong with this picture.


I have used this camera in all kinds of lighting in many different places, and nothing like this has ever occurred. You be the judge…haunted or not…

Why should the wedding ring be worn on the fourth finger?

There is a beautiful and convincing explanation given by the Chinese.....

Thumb represents your Parents
Second (Index) finger represents your Siblings
Middle finger represents your-Self
Fourth (Ring) finger represents your Life Partner
& the Last (Little) finger represents your children

Firstly, open your palms (face to face), bend the middle fingers and hold them together - back to back
Secondly, open and hold the remaining three fingers and the thumb -
tip to tip...............(As shown in the figure below):


Now, try to separate your thumbs (representing the parents)..., they will open, because your parents are not destined to live with you lifelong, and have to leave you sooner or later.

Please join your thumbs as before and separate your Index fingers (representing siblings)...., they will also open, because your brothers and sisters will have their own families and will have to lead their own separate lives.

Now join the Index fingers and separate your Little fingers (representing your children)...., they will open too, because the children also will get married and settle down on their own some day.

Finally, join your Little fingers, and try to separate your Ring fingers (representing your spouse).
You will be surprised to see that you just CANNOT....., because Husband & Wife should remain together all their lives - through thick and thin!!
