This Ok St (16) v Arkansas game is going to double OT. Oklahoma St is showing glimpses of quality, but not dominant at all

Seeing NFL fans upset about games being on streaming services. I’m laughing. I’m an English Premier League, Italian Series A and German Bundesliga fan. I subscribe to 3 services to watch matches.

My 13 yo grandson informed us that he wants to make cream puffs this weekend. He sure is aiming high. We’ll get it done. Luckily I have all of the cooking toys we’ll need

@CStamp I look upon them very suspiciously. I grew up and live in Hawaii. I rented a suit the only time I needed one in my life.

Watching Ken Burns Thomas Jefferson. In this time of nasty politics and those who question the constitution I feel a need to go back and reconnect with those who had the vision to create this nation.
Side note; politics got pretty nasty back then too.

Watching “Hawaiian - The Legend of Eddie Aikau” on History Channel via Disney. I knew the basics of his story, we all knew it growing up, but documentary fills in the rest. He was a legend in the watersports world.

@hawaiiboy Here's a link to an interview that I arranged at the radio station I worked at in Hilo with the morning DJs Kat and and the late Keala (of Sudden Rush) This was during the Navigating Change Voyage (2003–2004) to the NW Hawaiian Islands. Hope you like it

@ddanielson it’s s beast. My works with them all day and often calls me into her office to assist with a formula or process
I also played with Lucid 3-D for a while. Trying to wrap my head around 3D spreadsheets. It’s common practice now.

Next year I will have been using Microsoft Excel for 40 years. Used Lotus123 side by side with Excel until Excel 2.0 which added spreadsheet publishing. This was all in mid-late 80’s moving from 13 column pads to digital for P&Ls and sales tracking in a restaurant. Quite the leap.

@xxxx I have recording of a radio interview with him during that period that I arranged. I was working for KWXX on Hawaii island at the time. I’ll look for it and find a way to share

My wife has a massive aversion to heat and humidity. She’s from N. Dakota and a decade Minn., plus an age factor. I have a greater tolerance, I grew up in Hawaii and was an athlete for years in this weather. But this last 2-3 weeks has been xtra hot & humid. Lots of days inside with A/C

I never did get what a Labor Day sale is. Maybe if you’re selling tools for labor If it’s an end of summer sales for a summer brand and you want it clear out seasonal stock, then say that.

@GeekAndDad my version was to roast 1/2 with jalapeno, ancho, cumin and red pepper for a ranchero style sauce. The other 1/2 similar to yours. Yum yum

You just lived through the most humid summer on record
We purchased a stand alone dehumidifier this spring to augment our 3 window A/Cs & to not have to run them as often. It helped on most days, some days not so much. Getting a quote on a split A/C system this week. Need to up our A/C game

Was just looking up the 2 TGI Fridays that I managed in So Cal in the early 80s. Torrance and Marina Del Rey. They are both closed. They were both very busy stores back then. How the might have fallen

This is a great drone shot from earlier. Race is winding down. There were 224 men’s crews. The finished crews are making their way into Kamakahonu bay. Lots of canoes on the pier and a few crews still up the coast. 18 miles is about the top distance iron race for an average paddler

@crossingthethreshold a friend had a drone up and sent it to me minutes after the shot

@brianvastag We had a governor in Hawaii many years ago, George Ariyoshi. He was part of the Hawaii Democratic party machine back in the day. One of his campaign slogans was "Quiet and Effective", that slogan kind of sounds like Biden
