    An Observation in The Observation Bar

    I take it for granted. I'm surrounded on 3 sides by water. The Pacific Ocean is the Western border of The City. We have a beach, a cliff overlooking it, and something under the jurisdiction of The US Park Police. Whenever friends visit, they are always surprised that within 7X7 square miles...

    You know you are getting old when:

    balance the sugar with a little soy sauce. I'm sure that your sister in law won't mind, if you pull a bottle out of your pants pocket, and drizzle it on her pasta.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Amazon logistics has screwed up every order this month. Arriving late. Lost packages. Wrong item in the box. And it cost $120 a year to be a Prime member.

    You know you are getting old when:

    A very well produced series which nobody sees is "Wiseguy". Ken Wahl and Jonathan Banks. "Southland" also disappeared.

    What flavor was it?

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    In this area, fennel grows wild. It's everywhere. Cracks in the sidewalk, freeway offramps. Yards. Hillsides. I can harvest it all year.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Trader Joe seems to have a lot of good stuff. Prices are lower, to be higher. The package cost less. But there's less. The per unit cost is higher. Or so it seems. But there are some things I like buying there. Inexpensive alcohol. You can't beat $2 wine.

    Experimenting on foods.

    No short story. Decades in the making. Vignettes of my life. I hope to continue the story of my life.

    Experimenting on foods.

    She might be asleep. I can't really tell. She's laying there motionless. Maybe she just pretends to be sleeping so that she doesn't have to talk to me. Our conversations are not the most gratifying. I think it's because she's academically brilliant, and socially retarded. She works...

    The Agents of F.L.A.S.K.

    The dog had hypothermia too?

    Experimenting on foods.

    In some big cities, they have a criminal justice building. Police, Sheriff, District Attorney, City Marshall, 911 Call Center, Criminal Courts, Traffic Courts, Parking Violations, Tow Desk, Jails. A 24 hour building, as crime doesn't sleep. There's usually a cafeteria. And often, that...

    The Mandela Effect

    Richard Blaine never actually said, "play it again, Sam"?

    Social Media for those of a certain age?

    Age has never been a factor for me. The most important part is "feeling" an attraction, and some sort of "chemistry". Some guys will fixate over something physical - like eyes. I have a friend who is attracted to green eyes. As he says, "dragon green eyes, like creamy pools of jade"...

    Experimenting on foods.

    Mid-October, the first rain of the season came, and tomato are finally ripening for me. Eggplant with fresh tomato from the backyard. Egg fried rice. Experimental Chinese food. I'm Chinese. I cooked it. It's Chinese food.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Ground beef, peppers, and onion again. This time with ginger. Along with ramen and an egg. Eating ramen feels like a woman walked out on you, and that's what you're left with.

    The Monty Hall Problem

    You picked door number 1. Door number 3 has goats. Door number 1 and door number 2 are unknown. The game show host asks if you would like to switch from door number 1, to door number 2. Without the option of simply taking door number 3, and keeping the goat. Then Monty Hall will want to...

    Social Media for those of a certain age?

    I have been getting numbers I don't recognize. Could it be a scammer?

    Life, or Look?

    I've got all sorts of reading material that is worthless. Only value is to me. Paperback entertainment. Hardbound encyclopedias (which may have outdated information). Shop service manuals. Religious text. Text books from school. Biographies. Autobiographies. Coloring books. Cook books...
