Tennessee Renaissance Festival & Castle Gwynn


The 24th annual Tennessee Renaissance Festival is taking place in Arrington/Triune, Tennessee every weekend in May and on Memorial Day. While many Ren Fests have earned the reputation of being rather dark and occult, the Tennessee Renaissance Festival remains fairly family friendly. There are some occult elements in a few of the marketplace booths, and there is ale as well as some off sexual jesting at the Axel the Sot Show and the Washing Well Wenches, but if you avoid those, there is plenty f fun for the whole family: camel rides, jousting, food, music, shopping, live chess matches, pirates and lots of people in Renaissance costumes.

With your admission to the Tennessee Renaissance Festival, you also get to tour Castle Gwynn. Castle Gwynn is the beautiful castle featured in Taylor Swift's "Love Story" video.

Choking on Honey: What to Do

Image
Choking on honey: What to do Honey is a thick, viscous fluid which can become trapped in a person's airway. While there are many articles written about using honey to remove obstructions from the throat, there is not much, if anything, written about what to do if someone is choking on honey. I had an experience where I was choking on honey and called the paramedics. I couldn't even speak by the time I had someone on the phone. By the time the paramedics arrived, the honey had dissolved enough for me to begin gasping for air.  The main thing is to NOT PANIC and not inhale it deeper while it is thick. Honey will slowly dissolve and thin out. Coughing helps to break it up if you can slowly suck in enough air to get a cough out.    Also see: Dr. Morgan Wills: What to do if choking on honey - Nashville Skin, Health & Beauty Examiner

'Naked and Afraid XL' and Mean Girl Cliques

Image
I just finished watching the third season of "Naked And Afraid XL." I respect these people for leaving the comfort, safety and security of home to face unknown hardships in remote and inhospitable places. I wouldn't choose to do it, so my comments should be viewed knowing I realize I could not do what these people have done. In addition, I am aware that most of the action and dialogue takes place off camera. All my impressions are compliments of a cameraman and a film editor and the scenes they chose to share. A lot happens that that I am completely unaware of. With these two disclaimers in mind, let's talk about Mean Girl Cliques on "Naked And Afraid XL." Every girl comes up against them in elementary school. They become a force to be reckoned with in junior high and have usually become more sophisticated and somewhat nicer in high school. Even boys know their wrath, but the cruelties of Mean Girls are normally reserved for other girls. Not so on...
