In the early days of Twitter I made a lot of great connections with people from around the world. Over the subsequent years people fell away for various reasons. It’s so cool that I’ve reconnected with many of these people on threads.
Texas should win today after last week’s debacle, but you never know.
We did a lap downtown. Got our fill of Ironman before it gets really crowded. We’ll likely go out to Alii Drive when the runners go by. We’ll hear the helicopters when it’s time
Back stage at the finish line.
The sequence goes down the run finish chute.
C’mon Dogs, walk off. That’s all
We have to keep our Amazon account, on Hawaii Island we have less choices, we are using it a lot less though. Canceled my Washington Post account last year.
A year ago switched to direct fiber internet. At the time also redid our home network. New router, Direct ethernet to high demand devices, 2 AppleTV, 3 Sonos, Wife’s work computer & Xbox when grandson is over. This frees up WiFi for laptops, phones and a myriad of smart devices. No issues at all
A little aged
Should have an update coming.
Road closed ¼ mile ahead
In Hawaii we’ve had women for County Councils, Mayors, Governor as well as many many other top government posts. A woman has turned around the Honolulu rail project, a local girl at that (Lori Kahekina). A woman President is the next logical step.
There’s a cat 4 Hurricane in the Pacific that apparently is just going fizzle away to a cluster of rain by the time it’s in our neighborhood
Next week we’re going to Santa Rosa for a short trip to see family. We have 1 ¾ days to play. My wife really wants to go to Sausalito, I’m leaning for a short trip Muir Wood after.
We have reservations at the St. Francis winery. Then maybe Sebastopol or up to Healdsburg. Any suggestions?
Got $5 Starbucks cards for the flight attendants on our trip to America (Sonoma) next week
Is there an algorithm to block all political ads that are shown to me once my ballot is sent in?
I hope Hawaii island does something about this. It’s danger for everyone. I see them regularly blow stop signs and I have to dodge them on my regular walks on Alii Drive.
Alarming rate of e-bike crashes prompts city leaders to brainstorm new rules www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2024/10/2…
Ironman week. Here a load bussing downtown for the parade. Lots of cyclists zooming by.
Lots surfers out at Banyans for the meager choice of waves.
Still holding out for the new Mac Mini. If it’s truly that small, it can go anywhere.
Did update and tried the hearing test. Had change the tip. Sound was leaking. Took about 10 min. I little no loss. My wife might disagree.
Not bad for a 65 that went to a lot concerts. I won’t need to assist to hearing. Nice feature though.
We had about 6 month of fresh white peaches at Kona Costco. That season is officially over. Back to fresh Apples with my breakfast. Winter cold storage fruit.
4 more wins. #Dodgers.
Yard!
Any further debate would be simply wasting our breath. And if there’s one thing I can’t abide, it’s waste.- Varga
