Great news. A lot of this is former sugar cane land.
Had another watch of True Detective season one. Last watched it during lockdown. Caught the essence of the bayou in detail.
Master class all around.
The Middle East is getting dicey. Something bad will happen by misunderstanding or accident and it will blow up. Russia and/or China will nudge it along to mess even more with our elections.
All of this about Apple being a corporation and all. I don’t adore Apple, I use their products because they work, they last and they all talk to each other. If they stop doing that, I’ll move on. I also wear Patagonia clothing for the quality. Last forever. Sketchers work shoes, same.
Siri on my watch stopped working. Wondering if the Siri team in San Diego broke something out of protest for having to move to Austin. Two places diametrically opposite politically.
This is the year I finally close my Evernote and Instapaper account. These app are a shadow of what they were. Moving everything the Apple Notes. Created a read later folder and my EN export folder.
I work in a kitchen and use a pen to write food labels (when item was made and shelf life, etc), check lists, temperature logs, requisitions, etc. I use Fisher space pen cartridges. They write in any orientation and on damp surfaces, which we have a lot of.
The COVID Pandemic was a societal demarcation line. Businesses operate differently, “short staffed” is a normalized excuse. Service quality is down and it’s accepted. Prices are all over the place and not good. People are fine just staying home and getting everything delivered.
Made a new batch of my spice mix. I use it for fish and vegetables at the hotel. It has pink, white and black pepper. Kosher and Hawaiian Alae salt, black salt and a little habanero. Then I lightly smoke the entire batch.
Back in 2010 I have small media company. Built websites set up social media for small local businesses. I made a living for a few years. Built over 50 sites, and built in social media hooks. Set everyone us with a blog in some way shape or form as home base.
It’s the hotel Holiday party. Theme was throwback. We went a ways back. We are among the few here who remember that era.
radioparadise.com/listen/ch… Thoughtful, gentle songs, perfect as background music at home or work.
Inherited this box of 100s of B/W photos taken all around Hawaii Island in the early 1940s. They were taken by my great aunt who had a boyfriend stationed here during the war. I want to go to all of these places and take “now” photos 80 years later and share side-by-side online. Retirement project.
