  • “Your friends might get me in a rush, but not before I make your head into a canoe.”

    Again, Wyatt’s fearlessness helps him out of a jam and no one, Ike Clanton included, thinks Wyatt’s bluffing when he makes a threat. The commotion after Fred White’s death deescalates, but not before Wyatt makes it clear that he’s not going out without a fight.

    And, a Merry X-mas to you and the family.

    We are not exactly the typical Mexican family when it comes to religion. The majority of Mexicans are Catholic and celebrate Christmas on Dec 25th. My family has been Orthodox since before one side my grandparents came over from Russia, through Ellis Island, and then settled in northern Mexico around 1900. Orthodox Christians still follow the Julian calendar, where most other people use the Gregorian calendar. This is the reason that traditional Christian holidays are celebrated on different dates by Orthodox Christians. So Christmas is on January 7th. We also have a few different ways to celebrate. See below video :)

    When they were young I told the kids that one of the advantage of being Orthodox, and celebrating Christmas on January 7th, was that we could buy more presents for them because of the after traditional Christmas sales. I expect that this was one of the reasons that the family has stayed Orthodox through the generations. :wink:

    It does surprise most people unfamiliar with Mexico that many Mexican families can trace their roots back to various countries other than Spain. There are plenty of families that have Russian, German, French, English, Syrian, Lebanese, Jewish, Chinese, and African ancestors from more that 100 years ago. All mixed in with various indigenous tribes that were native to pre-hispanic Mexico. My wife's side of the family traces back to France as another example.

    This is very interesting!

  • The International Space Station circles Earth every 92 minutes.

  • Stars twinkle because of the way light is disrupted as it passes through Earth’s atmosphere.

  • We always see the same side of the Moon, no matter where we stand on Earth.

  • There are three main types of galaxies: elliptical, spiral & irregular.

  • There are approximately 100 thousand million stars in the Milky Way.

  • Using the naked eye, you can see 3 – 7 different galaxies from Earth.

  • In 2016, scientists detected a radio signal from a source 5 billion light-years away.

  • The closest galaxy to us is the Andromeda Galaxy – it’s estimated at 2.5 million light-years away.
