Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Kauai/Maui Trip (January 2012)

A co-worker recently told me she’s going to Kauai and I am incredibly jealous.

Here’s a montage video I made of our trip which had eight days […]

Music Monday – “Ain’t singin’ for Pepsi/Ain’t singin’ for Coke/I don’t sing for nobody Makes me look like a joke/This note’s for you”

There’s some irony that Warner Brothers Music Group won’t allow me to embed this anti-corporate sponsorship song on my blog. But worth a click-thru to watch a classic Neil Young song… “This Note’s For You” – Neil Young

Music Monday – “Yeah, to the farmers and the first responders/To the truck drivers shiftin’ gears/Every nurse that needs a break, let me buy you a drink/There ain’t no “I” in beer”

Great pandemic song/video and somewhat ironic that truckers get a shout-out given the KluTruxKlan “Freedom” convoy happening right now. But the reality is unvaxxed truckers are a very small minority and most truckers and the national trucking association support vaccinations. “No ‘I” in Beer” – Brad Paisley

Music Monday – “You know that old trees just grow stronger/And old rivers grow wilder every day/Old people just grow lonesome/Waiting for someone to say, “Hello in there, hello”

“Hello In There” – Ian Noe (John Prine Cover)

Shortest Ever Pulse of Light Captured By Camera

There’s a joke in here somewhere about how time loses all meaning in the age of Covid but it’s too late for me to think of it. Anyhow enjoy…

Half of N95 Style Masks Fail To Meet Minimum Standards of Protection in CBC Test

It’s such a tough time to be alive. Something that seems like it should be straight forward – buying N95-style masks because you want better protection against Omicron – could have all sorts of issues with sub-standard quality, even if purchased from legitimate retailers. Or the conflicting information that’s out there – for example, if […]
