Global warming has been a political football for over 40 years. I’m really starting to feel it’s too late stop it. It’s more like how can we live with it.


Deadly Heat, Fires, Deadly virus still around, voting rights on the chopping block, along with Democracy, inept Senate Democrats. Thinking I want to hunker down on this rock in the middle of the ocean, but a maybe further mauka (further up the mountain) and off the grid.

I miss going to the Borders Books & Records Cafe. You could grab book from the store and read a preview over coffee or take the coffee over and preview a CD. Nothing close that on Hawaii Island.

I’m about 30% through East of Eden. Only read the Cliff Notes version back in college, long over due. Thoroughly enjoying the read. This feels like the impetus to getting me back into long-form reading after a number of false start the past few years.


Current status


I’m a huge sports fan, but really have no interest in these ill timed, made for TV Olympics. Feel bad for the athletes.


Amazon provides a QR code to return to a UPS store rather than a label. The one UPS store in Kona has a line out the door every time I go, the limited opportunities, I have to go by there. There is apparently no way to just get a label.

“Man It’s a hot one, like 7 inches from the mid day sun” Just popped up in the playlist I’m listening to. That lyric seems so appropriate for what’s going on now.

Our VP of operations and CEO will be in my store on Monday. Going to have a conversation on the possible paths forward on staffing. Current path not tenable
