I haven’t worked a breakfast shift since 1987. I have been a 6-7am riser for the last 20 years or so. After 1 day, this new 4am wake up will require shifting my whole day 2 hours earlier. Eating earlier and definitely sleeping earlier.


My tax bill is a lie, it’s a hoax, it’s made up. It wasn’t me.


I like think rib sticking’ chili. I use Masa flour after a long simmer.


Have a pot of Texas style chili on. No beans. Lots of spice.


Looking north from Kona. Towards the Tropical storm.


Just got home from work and saw the Apple offering. I’m good. Apple Watch 9 still works fine. iPhone 13 Pro still works fine. 13 MBA M1 is ok now. Maybe a new AppleTV soon


In a blue state a brewery can do this (2nd one on the list)


The Epstein case is on a slow burn. Watergate was kind of like that. So much evidence will rise to the service it will become undeniable. No more coulda, shoulda, just get everything out and the chips fall where they may.


First morning up at 4am to work at 5:30. My new normal. Gonna take me a few morning.


I’m white, I’m an immigrant. Even though a lot my direct bloodline were on the continent in the 1600’s, there were people there before us. The only native in my Bloodline is from a marriage in 1547 in Virginia which runs up the bloodline of my grandmother. Makes me no less than 1/32,072% native.


Hans Zimmer had a part in the Chief of War soundtrack. Now I hear it.

Far too wide for me by the Peter Moon Band hits hard every time. We were living in California when it came out. I can close my eyes and visualize every line in th song.

Target’s answer to Tarrifs in addition to raising prices is drastically cutting back on sale items.


Got my Covid booster and Flu shot today. I believe in science, not politicians.


Interesting in Kona. Right now at 1pm it’s 85 degrees and 63% humidity. When I looked at midnight last night, it was 82 degrees and 69% humidity


Sorry. No railroad crossings here

Taking a mental health break from everything Trump and MAGA. Aloha


The Rose Ensemble was formed in 1996 in St Paul Minnesota. They have recorded a couple of albums of traditional (old) Hawaiian music. It’s really good. They did their homework. Na Mele Hawaii
