This is where lots of thinking gets done. Not all of it understandable, but it happens.

Today’s photo hunt is a picture of yourself. I have lots of those because I do Self Portrait Sunday. I, however, will use one that I haven’t posted before just to provide some variety.
That’s me and Sammy goofing around. I was trying to get a picture with him facing the camera but [...]

I work in an area of Honolulu known as Mapunapuna. It’s near the airport. If you’ve ever visited Oahu you’ve driven past Mapunapuna. Mapunapuna is a small, commercial area. There are lots of auto mechanics, storage places, trucking companies, things like that. This corner is kind of the hub of [...]

Canoes have a long history in Hawaiian culture. Thor Heyerdahl put forth that Polynesians came from Peru on rafts. Ancient oral tradition seemed to indicate that the Hawaiians believed they came from the south. In the 1970’s a young Hawaiian learned to navigate by the stars. Then a canoe was constructed [...]

Apparently I’m having one today. And it seemed to have started out so good. For the first time in 2 weeks I woke up this morning feeling almost normal again. This particular cold really sucks the life out of you. So I woke feeling very good and headed out on my bike ride – one [...]

It’s Sunday again. These weeks go by way too fast. This one I took early. This is me and the newest member of the flock, Peanut, just sitting around drinking coffee and trying to wake up.

I forgot this one last week and really wanted to post it. I’m a huge James Patterson fan and have read all his books. This one was one of my favorites by far. The title implies not only the story but how easy it is to read. It took me 3 [...]

This is the 2nd book in a trilogy. The first book was Raising Atlantis and the third one isn’t out yet. Also I should note, I didn’t actually read this book. I listened to it as an audiobook. But here is my opinion anyway.
This is the second part of [...]

That may seem like an obvious statement, but it’s true. I love blogging. I have 4 blogs and I love writing on all of them. But building traffic takes time. Many of the ways to do it are just not for me. I don’t have time to sit on forums all [...]

It’s amazing how being sick can throw everything into a tailspin. I don’t realize day to day how many routines and patterns I have. I get up in the morning, feed the animals, workout, get ready for work, go to work. When I was sick but still going to work I was [...]
