Just rewatched Tinker Tailor for the umpteenth time. Never gets old and see new details every time
Another shooting. Kentucky this time. I came across this website on gun violence. The Southeast US. They just keep killing each other.
So Cal not too good either, guessing gang violence major cause.
Not sure what else to attribute it to, but my 13 Pro battery life has gotten markedly worse coincidentally after the last update to 16.5
Had a great outing to Hawaii Botanical Gardens. It goes from up high (Mauka) down to the sea (Makai). Took a couple of pics with Hipstamatic
Heading to Hawaii Botanical gardens for a day hike with grandsons. Nice day in the rainforest.
In Nutcracker Suite Dance of the flowers the Harp, flutes and clarinets are so delicate, the French horns make a statement, but the violins are absolutely triumphant.
Listening to Nutcracker suite. Usual a Holiday listen, but if conjures up feelings of such happiness and delight, it’s a good listen anytime.

The Pandemic sure brought out the best & worst in people. Lots of high profile people came out of the closet as far right wing-nuts. Someone my wife worked with for years, turned out the be a MAGAite, denounced Hawaii as a leftist radical haven & just moved to Florida. Good Riddance
I don’t think Trump getting charged is unprecedented. Doctor, Lawyer, Indian chief or former grand pubah. You break the law and get caught, you pay. At this point, he’s a corporate criminal.
The one thing I’ve learned in 40+ years in the restaurant that holds true through the years and is a basis for success “hot food hot, cold food cold”

Hawaii ranks first in preventing COVID deaths
Side benefit of being in the middle of the ocean and a more liberal and tolerant community
Bought a little over a pound of thinly sliced Boar’s Head Roast beef this week. Had a Philly style cheese steak sandwich one day, a “Dagwood” style roast beef sandwich with all of the fixins on another and finally roast beef on sour dough toast with melted cheddar. Yum
Likely going to cancel my Washington Post subscription since I decided to support the Guardian. Trust the Guardian more. WaPo has had some missteps recently.
I supported the Texas Observer not because I feel a need to keep up on Texas news, but because I believe Texas needs a strong voice on the other side.
My Great Grandfather was born in Texas, but moved to Kentucky in his 30s.
For years, in the AM and I’d go straight to email, etc. It used to be that I relied on connections with people in earlier time zone. Hawaii is last in the US. It kind of became habit. Now with an analog job and all local connections, email and other notifications now wait till much later in the day.
Typically when I come across something interesting on my phone, I email it to myself. With the Arc IOS companion I can now pin it to a space in my Arc browser using the share sheet and it’s there when I go to my Mac.
