It is 5:32 AM on Saturday October 22nd, 2016. Today is a double dose of karate class for me. In the past I would watch the kid’s class then participate in the adults class but Senpai Taka-san asked me to join in the kid’s class and help out. Happy to help and this means that…… Continue reading 10.22.2016 – Mars, Fancy Cars and Other Things

Journal Entry – 10.20.2016
It is 5:16 AM. Today I have an all day travel industry event and must leave very early so my morning ‘me time’ is cut very short. These things can be a bit draining but also great opportunities to do a lot of networking. Needless to say I’m looking forward to tomorrow which is Friday.…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 10.20.2016
Journal Entry – 10.19.2016
It is 5:14 AM. This week I received a response to a message I sent many years ago to my very first internet friend. Unlike most people I still have all my data from when I first started using computers back in 1992. I also keep a treasure chest that I’ve had since I was…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 10.19.2016
Keeping track of time – A project I really like
I came across this video on Reddit and wanted to write a brief post. Sam Klemke began documenting his life on film starting all the way back in 1977. He says “I’m fascinated with time,” as the reason for doing this project. I also happen to be fascinated with time and I do something very…… Continue reading Keeping track of time – A project I really like
Palmeras en la Nieve
Hoy tengo tiempo libre y estoy en la casa solo. Hace mucho tiempo desde que he tenido tiempo para hacer lo que quiero. Entonces hoy decidía ver una película se llama Palmeras en la Nieve. Es una historia de colonialismo española en Guinea Ecuatorial y lo que pasaron entre dos amantes allí. A mí me…… Continue reading Palmeras en la Nieve
Journal Entry 10.13.2016
It is 4:50 AM and I have a cold which hasn’t let me get a good nights sleep. I had just gotten over a fever when *someone* in the house got a pretty nasty cough which has also infected me. Perhaps I could have gotten over it by now if I had rested but there…… Continue reading Journal Entry 10.13.2016
LTMD – Presidential Debate
Last night was the second debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. I thought it would make a good LTMD as last night fundamentally changed politics in this country. Donald Trump has single handedly blurred the line between a reality TV culture and mainstream politics. Now, everything is entertainment and it has revealed that a…… Continue reading LTMD – Presidential Debate
Looking out the window
It is 6:01 AM and there is not a lot of time before the day officially begins so I’ll keep this post short. One can learn a lot by spending time looking out their front window. Recently, I’ve been looking out my second story window after family bath time as I wait for the kids…… Continue reading Looking out the window
