“I know what you’re thinking, and you’re right”: A MAGNUM geek visits Paradise
Longtime readers may remember that I was a big fan of the show Magnum PI back in the day. That is, the original show, the one that ran in the 1980s, and not the new reboot show that is running, well, now. … Continue reading

Snowy….
A week ago, we were enjoying sunny skies by the side of the sea. Now, we’re back home and enjoying this: It was a light snowfall and it all melted before I even got up this morning. And it was … Continue reading
Cloudy Days in Paradise
Only two days remain in our Hawaiian adventure. This morning we woke up for the first time to cloudy skies. Since gray skies tend to be the norm for Buffalo in winter–a season that I find beautiful in many ways, … Continue reading

And now, an airplane.
Just because, here’s a cool-looking plane. It’s meant for really big cargo, and it’s called–get this–the “Super Guppy”. You can see the full size version of this here.
Speaking of made-up “holidays”….
…today is, according to someone, Pie In The Face Day! If you Google it, several dates come up (July 1 is one), but the most common is November 27. I’ve no idea why November 27 is the date for this, unless the … Continue reading

Gap, with stripes (or, New to the Collection)
Back in the 90s, The Gap (along with everyone else) made some really nice overalls. I still have some from that period, and they are now officially Vintage. Maybe you wouldn’t have expected it, but Gap’s overalls from that period … Continue reading

Two dogs and one cat
Keepin’ it low-key at Casa Jaquandor this weekend. I hope you’re doing the same. (But not at Casa Jaquandor, because that would be weird.) Not pictured is Rosa, the other gray cat in our home. No particular reason, I just … Continue reading
