So the riddle for today is how exactly did the Maya get artifacts a mile back into an underwater senote in Cozumel. Senote's are underwater caves that still have ceilings, that is to say no light penetrates from the surface. I understand that the Maya are considered the supermen (and women) of the new world but at Cuevo Cabrata they have discovered human remains, gold, jade and pottery artifacts one mile back into these caves....how? I know that the Maya considered Senote's to be sacred places, the doorway if you will between the Mayan world and the underworld. Could underwater currents actually have gently carried these pieces a mile back? This is deep enough so that when diving these men have to use rebreather technology just to get there.
It is believed that Maya from all over central america made pilgrimages to Cozumel because it was believed that the Moon goddess lived in the senote's.
Now you folks know exactly how boring my life is lol. I find this stuff absolutely fascinating.

Well I started my new diet and exercise regime today. And justly so the misery has begun. You would think that the older you get the smarter you become. This is simply not so. I believe that there are certain lessons in life that we as individuals must relearn over and over and over again.
Why the new regimen you ask? Well I need to be able to run a mile and a half in less than 14 minutes 31 seconds and I only have until Jan. 27 to get it done. Today's time for one mile was an abysmal 16:42 for one mile. Not nearly good enough. Thank heaven I have plenty of time to get my rear in gear because I am going to need it.
The diet is also atrocious. I love bread almost as much as I love cheese. Of course with the new diet there is no bread and only low fat cheese. The cheese bit isn't too bad, at least I get swiss and mozzarella. I already miss the bread greatly.
I think that's about it for this evening as I have to be up early to go the track......
