It is 4:35 AM on Tuesday June 15th, 2021. There is no moon, a heavy fog lies above and the street is dimly illuminated by a street lamp. The world is silent with the only sounds coming from the air pump for my fish tank and a slight, chill breeze wafting through the trees. Everyone…… Continue reading The First Day of Summer 2021

New Server!!
Today is a wonderful day! After a decade of using the low end, entry model 212J Synology NAS I’ve finally splurged and gotten a state of the art server. I bought the 212J about a decade ago because I had always wanted to host my own blogs and thus not have to pay some company…… Continue reading New Server!!

Since the new year is an excellent time to adjust one’s habits and routines I’ve decided to experiment with a number of changes. One of the biggest is to stop using Facebook. So far I’ve gone three days and the feeling is one of tranquility and peacefulness. It is not that I have anything against…… Continue reading Quitting Facebook
Goodbye Sliding Door theme
It was time for a change. My sliding door theme had served me very well when I wanted to use this blog primarily for pictures. Now that my interest in writing has been rekindled, the white text on a black background isn’t going to work anymore. Also, with the Japanese influence in my life I…… Continue reading Goodbye Sliding Door theme
WordPress – Recording my life and finding a vibrant community
A few posts ago I wrote that I had “rediscovered” WordPress. To be more exact, I discovered a very vibrant community where people actually express real feelings!I’d like to expound a little more on that previous post because I’m still very enthusiastic about this “discovery.” On the web, and just like in real life, we…… Continue reading WordPress – Recording my life and finding a vibrant community
