I go to the pool where we live for aqua therapy 2-3 times a week I injured my lower back 25 years ago and pain came back earlier this year. Floating works. I have noticed the temperature of the water in the pool has risen to being an almost uncomfortable level any time other that early morning.
I remember learning this back in PoliSci in college. “Most” President candidates move to the center to get elected then go back to their parties base level after. I say “most” become Trump keeps moveimg further right. He may fall off the right edge, we can only hope
How is Kamala Harris getting away with this?
We are going to N California (Sonoma) in late October. I don’t own a sweater any more, it’s hot here. Going to treat myself to one of these. I have a feeling we’ll be going there regularly to see my step-son and granddaughter.
They’re grasping. A lot of effort to prove or disprove a footnote. I worked a local fast food place while in school for about 9 months. I don’t think I ever mentioned it. It’s something I did to pay bills.

We need to let Ukraine fire missiles into Russia. Tactical targets. Russia fires on civilians. Ukraine can take the high road but still get the job done
My Apple Music Purchased music playlist has over 3000 songs. Not sure if this was from before I subscribed to Apple Music. Seems like a lot, but it was a few years before I subscribed
Really love SToK cold brewed for an afternoon. Kick. Easier than heating up water to brew a cup of Joe.
I haven’t watched a presidential debate in forever, if at all. Harris v Trump and Walz v Vance would be must see TV.
Won this trophy at the 2006 Hawaiian International Billfish Tournament. Funny thing, I was always an athlete, but never a fisherman. We had a team because I was sales manager for the sponsoring radio station and had a team to promote the tourney. Had a blast

There are so many people on MB, Mastodon and now Threads that I’ve been connected to since the early days of Twitter and on App.net. Maybe not a lot of dialog with many, but have seen their career and life changes and challenges. It’s like I know them, but don’t.
Hurricane Honi is safely past us. Now Gilma and Hector are lining up. Gilma expected to pass on the north. Hector - too soon to tell
Think the worst of the storm is beyond us. Still very poor visibility and still light rain. Side note,v they keep showing the flooded soccer fields in Hilo. That area was homes and businesses before the 1961 tsunamiand was cleared as a flood plain. The are flood every storm
Hearing the term “cone of uncertainty” a lot in reference to the hurricane. I think life in general has a cone of uncertainty.
The TS became a Hurricane overnight. Lots of flooding on the east-side. It rained all night here on the west-side. The usual streets will be flooded in town. There are abundant dry wells in our area.
Watched a couple of interviews with old conservatives from generational farms and ranches in CA & TX. They were rueing their community, farms and ranches being taken over by immigrants. What they didn’t say is their kids don’t want to work in farming and ranching.
Since I set up Thread with most of my follows from Twitter, it’s actually more useful than Twitter, no ads. This filled gap with those not on Mastodon
We went to pool last evening for some aqua therapy. Floating is really good for low back issues.
The water in the pool was warm. Feels very bizarre
The day before the Tropical Storm/ Hurricane in Kona. TBF, we are behind the 3 mountains; Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, Hualalai. We’ll get ours from the back of the storm as it passes.
