Perhaps. We went through a phase where the boys enoyed the show. Heck, we went through three such phases, one for each of the boys. Every time, it took me back. Not to childhood. The first season of Power Rangers released when I was in high school. But, it took me back to one of my first teenage crushes, Kimberly the Pink Ranger. Heck, we even went to see the newest movie on opening weekend. I check periodically to see if they released any information on the sequel. So far, no <a href=\"https:\/\/www.looper.com\/267339\/power-rangers-2-will-we-ever-get-to-see-the-sequel\/\">luck<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Prompt<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday, I said that I got the idea about this time last <a href=\"http:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/2021\/05\/10\/morphing-candle\/\">year<\/a> that I got inspired to write daily. I didn&#8217;t remember if I wrote on yesterday&#8217;s prompt, but I remember today&#8217;s. Last year, apparently, I tried to morph the meaning of the word candle. Not having read the entry since then, I have no idea what that even means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Prompt<\/span>:  Language evolves. The meaning of a word can shift over time as we use it differently \u2014 think of \u201ccool,\u201d \u201cheavy,\u201d or even \u201cliterally.\u201d Today, give a word an evolutionary push: give a common word a new meaning, explain it to us, and use it in the title of your post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I admit that the thought of redefining a word is compelling. &#8220;Bad&#8221; becomes &#8220;good&#8221;. &#8220;Heavy&#8221; becomes a joke that endures through generations.&#8221; Hell, half of conversations these days are about what &#8220;can and can&#8217;t be said&#8221; in polite conversation. However, it takes a certain amount of hubris to think you can. Granted, I already show some of that hubris by writing my words here and expecting anyone to care. Nevertheless, my hubris has limits. And, so, no morphing of language today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Today&#8217;s Adventure (Ashuelot Trail..Again)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220510_133223477.MP_-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-509\" width=\"664\" height=\"885\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220510_133223477.MP_-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220510_133223477.MP_-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220510_133223477.MP_-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220510_133223477.MP_-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.2guysgaming.net\/outdoors\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220510_133223477.MP_-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I shared none of my pictures or video from today.
