Last fall when Twitter started being destroyed, I set up an account on Mastodon – and after an initial burst of activity on Mastodon, I have reverted back to my Twitter-scale of use. (In other words, I don’t use it at all.) That said, during my “active” time on Mastodon, I followed George Takei. […] One of my family’s stories involves a very young Adam – but considering that I do not remember the story, I would presume it happened in the 1970s, roughly speaking. We’d taken a family trip to Oregon – which is where my maternal grandmother lived. My maternal grandfather died before I was born. I have […] I bought the above bracelet in 2013 while visiting New Mexico – the same trip when I bought Whatchamacallit 18: the Navajo Plant Dye Chart and Whatchamacallit 92: Navajo Turquoise Bracelet. This was bought at a place where you really can be in four places at once: Four Corners Monument. Surely I didn’t pay […] Last year, Elizabeth Warren was one of the presidential candidates I supported early on. Clearly, I am somewhat disappointed that she did not do better in the primaries. However, I am going to vote for Joe Biden, enthusiastically. Is he my dream candidate? No. Do I agree with everything he says or does? No. […] I bought this particular bolo tie on August 12, 2017 – so just over three years ago. My receipt, from Keshi, states: Sterling Silver + mother-of-pearl, jet, turquoise, coral, lapis w/ leather cord..

This poster was a present from my relatives – capturing Route 66 going down Central Avenue, hinting at the […] I bought this anklet on October 24, 2015, at Holuaola Gallery, which is in Holuaola, Hawaii. According to the receipt, I paid $22.50, taxes of $0.94, making for a grand total of $23.44. I used a Visa card. This is the only anklet I own – I bought it without trying it on, then […] Last August I visited Boston where I walked the Freedom Trail. While there’s a lot of good things to say about the Freedom Trail in theory (great idea!), practically speaking, it has many issues. Certainly, I enjoyed many moments on the trail, including seeing this statue of Paul Revere with the famous North Church […] I miss when America was great. During the Covid-19 crisis, I am going to try and make a point of writing a blog post about an object in my home. We’ll see how long this lasts. Few people see or use US$2 bills on a regular basis – even rarer is the above 1963 Red Seal $2 Bill. While the modern $2 bill has an image of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, this one features Monticello. Given the condition of this note, while it is probably […] |
