The Good Old Days

Ever wonder what life was like before TV? When there was no video games? 

Well, here is how it was:

“I rose at 5 o’clock in the morning and read a chapter in Hebrew and 200 verses in Homer’s Odyssey. I ate milk for breakfast, I said my prayers…I danced my dance. I read law in the morning and Italian in the afternoon. I ate tough chicken for dinner.”

Diary of William Byrd, 1709
