I wish we still had a proper book or record store in Kona. I’m (hopefully) still 5 years from retirement, but would love to spend retirement working in one.

Classic, Love it. Irish call of the 2012 Olympics sailing
Thank you IOS and watch Betas for giving me the amazing opportunity to charge my devices twice a day.
The updated Sonos app still has issues. It often doesn’t see the speaker that is actually playing something and directs me to speaker that’s not.
I had certain workflows and muscle memory in the Overcast app that are totally messed up. Jury is still out. May move to a different app

Had a short previously scheduled call with our investment guy today. He said he always gets a load of panic calls and emails on day like today. Said it’s the usual suspect and talks them off the ledge every time. He said the smart move is to have money set aside for days like this and buy.
There’s been an effort for at least 30 years to get outrigger canoe paddling into the Olympics. The International Va’a Federation holds the World sprint championships bi-annually. There are 27 nations this year in Hilo. This would be great for Pacific island nations that don’t do Olympics.
Gary Jobson makes it such a pleasure to watch Sailing. Like Phil Liggett for Cycling and how the late Keith Jackson was for College Football (“Whoa, Nellie!")
Big fail. None of the weather apps show rain in Kona. Just because it rarely rains here doesn’t mean they can stand down
