Apple rolled-out their new phones and tablets today. It’s clear that they’re missing Steve Jobs because their stuff today was boring, old, and overpriced. Both the phone and tablet announced today, are lower in specifications than existing products already offered or announced by Microsoft. Oh, on the new Apple tablet demoed today, they were using…

Another Trip Update for October 28th
This week I attended Freegen Church in Lapu Lapu. This is my girl’s old church. This was our second visit this month. I was wearing a prominent colored shirt and made a short video of the praise music which I later posted on Facebook. Yesterday, I found out that the photo collage that went on…

I’m about ten days into this trip. Here are a few observations thus far. Getting a visa extension to stay here was easy. The hardest part was the demand that payment be made in cash. The cost was just north of 4,000 pesos ($66). I needed to complete a form, pay a fee, and then…

My first hotel experience in Lapu Lapu City was the Crown Regency Hotel. I will be comparing it, in part, with my visit last year. The Crown Regency is an older hotel along a main road in Lapu Lapu City. Per the elevator buttons, it has ten floors. It has a small swimming pool and…

Good Grief!! No wonder things in our culture are so upside-down. I was warned this was futility, but I insisted on trying anyway. I have joined two online Christian dating websites. One is dominated by Reformed Baptists and the other with Seventh Day Adventists. This rant is directed at the Reformed Baptists. I first met…

I’ve been slow to post anything lately as I’m still working through the death of my wife. Thanks to “The Chief” for making the bulk of new content here lately. I’m sorting my wife’s treasures and purging a lot of them. She valued things in terms of sentimentality and not cash value. Sadly, granddad’s ratty…

Editor’s Note: I was sent this blog post just before it was announced that Trump authorized bombing Iranian nuclear sites. In wake of the Ukraine/Russia war and Isreal/Iran war, a lot has been made of “far left and far right” isolationism. Most of the media talking heads are shoveling a lot of bull shoot about…

It was going so well. The deportations, DOGE, law and order returning, no involvement in foreign wars, inflation cooling down, and the Democrat Party reeling like a swimmer drowning in a lake (or a passenger in the car with Teddy Kennedy). Then Trump nuked it all. To be very honest I am not sure why. …

Folks, you all likely remember Colin “Iraq has WMD’s and we have proof” Powell. He made those comments to the United Nations. Then like the chameleon, he is changed his stripes to keep a job with the Obama administration. This blog is going to point out that the action Israel is taking is no different…

You may have seen the footage from over the weekend and bleeding into the work week about anti-ICE rioting in the Los Angeles area. It’s a sad situation but again the democrats continue to screw up. Folks, Trump is by no means perfect, and I do have some issues with the deportations he is doing. …
