I’ve read this book twice and refer back to it often. It’s grounding to grasp the science of how life was created, how rare it is, and why everything eventually dies. The concept of entropy means even Elon Musk will turn to dust. Money can’t buy a golden ticket.

As of yesterday, I was just making stuffing. As of today, I’m doing the turkey and garlic mashed potatoes. My wife went up to her son’s house and he was “in the weeds”, so she brought it all home for me to prepare.

Saw an interview with Anne Wojcicki, CEO of 23&me. Told a great story for shareholders. Too little too late.

Scored some fresh herbs.

This is sad, but his fault. Sunday, 2 days after this, we were driving south down the coast and 2 motorcycles blew by us passing a line of cars. They don’t learn

Came across this about 20 years ago. I’ve sliced my turkey like this since.

I’ll enjoy Thanksgiving. Guarantee I’ll be working Christmas and New Year’s.

I’ve had this blue LED light in my bathroom for well over 20 years. It’s has a photo cell so it’s off when the light is on, which is a few minutes a day. So this thing has been on in a dark bathroom for years. Never really think about it. It just works.

I felt safer driving in south central LA in the early 80 than I do in Holiday season store parking lots .

I’ve come to the conclusion the search engines other than Google just aren’t very good at Hawaii Specific searches. I keep going back to Google

Hilo Battery and Glass on Kinoole st. Approx 1968. The owner Akira Sato was a close family friend.

When we bought my wife’s Subaru Crosstrek earlier this year, we took an EV under serious consideration. It just didn’t make sense for us on many levels. Our driving situation (wife works at home, my commute 2.5 mi). The expense of installing a charger and the cost of the car. The dealers agreed.

Drop down to Keauhou shopping center for last minute ingredients. The winds have freshened up quite a bit since my walk this morning. White caps on the water and the trees are dancing.

A layer of clouds on the horizon, but not a single cloud on Hualalai. That will change shortly as the dynamics of thermals kicks in.

This definitely does justice to the original by the Platters.

Then around point on my walk. Magics and a cup of joe

We are at least in a good enough financial position to weather a “tariff storm” and will shelter our family. I am healthy enough to work a few more years. If push comes to shove, I can get back into management and increase my income substantially (at the expense of lifestyle of course).

My wife’s work is migrating from Webex to MS Teams. It’s not going well. It’s somehow messing up their Outlook email among other issues.

This is where Kamala stayed on Hawaii Ialand at the Mauna Kea resort. www.dwell.com/home/wine…

Watching Fargo season 1 with Billy Bob Thornton, for no specific reason other than it’s great TV

My Great Grandparents. Otto and Fannie Kimbley. They lived in the same house in the Paducah Ward, McCracken, Kentucky since they got married on Christmas Eve in 1906. Photo is at their 60th wedding anniversary. Fannie passed in 1971 and Otto in 1973
