It’s nice to be in Hawaii on Standard time. Many business entities are tied-in to California–and they run on California time. This means we change from a two-hour time difference to a three-hour time difference–and back again, whether we “Fall Back,” or “Spring Ahead.” Phoenix, in the state of Arizona, also remains on standard time. …

Meat and Potatoes
I’m a meat and potatoes persona with grata cheese sometimes. I like this old-fashioned combo–usually with cauliflower and broccoli thrown on top.

Be Here Now

Creation is a “See” before Reaction!
As a tried tired alky of 26 years, I finally “found the light” in Alcoholics Anonymous. I learned the difference between Spirituality and Religion: Religion is for those who don’t want to go to Hell, and Spirituality is for those who have been to Hell, and don’t want to go back! I learned the Seventh …
EWR SFO HNL
It’s a nice place to visit, but I wouldn’t want to live there. I hear that a lot about these three cities. But I’m reminded that if I’m true to self, it doesn’t matter what other people think. I love these cities and have lived in all three. They’re good enough for me to live …
