I spent the evening sorting through gazillions of photos

It was the high point of our trip to Hawaii.

And what is it? The shadow of Mauna Kea upon the clouds to the east of the mountaintop. Most people watch the sunset... the more interesting show is behind you.

I spent the evening sorting through gazillions of photos. This one continues to be a favorite.

I came across copies of the two patents I received at Chevron

Leonard Cohen at the Paramount Theater

At Oakland Paramount Theatre for Leonard Cohen concert.

The average age is gray alte kakke.

Carol wouldn't join me for an evening of lugubrious music, Suzanne is down by the river, and I just couldn't ask Debbie Downer because she couldn't take the music's upbeat tempo and foot tapping rhythm.

I just read Joel Selvin's review of the concert "Leonard Cohen's Graceful Gift"

It summed it up perfectly... and didn't include how wonderful the musicians were.

Here Here for Josh at The Center For Better Hearing. I can hear here!

Here Here for Josh at The Center For Better Hearing. I can hear here!

Chances are if there's a guy in your family who's better than 55, he might need some hearing assistance. I put off getting hearing aids simply because of vanity. My cool hearing aids are practically invisible, and look like bluetooth modems. Have him call me - I'll tell him what a difference they made.

Downside? No more selective hubby hearing

My father had a '49 Pontiac, so this brings back fond memories. Seen in Elmwood neighborhood of Berkeley.
