I was intrigued by the Retina iMac when it was announced last fall. I liked what I saw on the Apple Store showroom floor. I’d been planning to replace my aging Mac Mini with a new Mini whenever Apple released one, and last fall, they did. Except, to equip the … Continue reading →
Here are a few high school memories. These photos are not mine. They were taken by alumni from my high school who were able to attend the open house held prior to ripping out anything of value from the building and auctioning it off prior to demolition. The school district … Continue reading →
We don’t have much new on the cats. If you’re keeping count at home, we have seven indoor cats and four outdoor cats (along with a few feline visitors, an opossum visitor, and a raccoon visitor, based upon game camera sightings). Indoor Cats: Ajax has been extraordinarily needy lately, but … Continue reading →

A surgery gone bad, and an iconic author is no longer with us, leaving a daughter without a mother. Monica wrote romance. She wrote good, compelling stories, but she felt marginalized. And she … Continue reading →
I have a sequence of three photos I find amusing, so I’ll share them with you. Mr. L and I are attempting to tame a couple of outdoor cats. Sneaky, we consider tame, for all intents and purposes, although she still controls our access to her. The other subject in … Continue reading →
I mentioned I was getting a new knee, but I haven’t said much about it. The new left knee, a Stryker Triathalon if that means anything to you, was installed three weeks ago and is working beautifully. I am pleased beyond my wildest dreams. Pre-op went well. They prepped me … Continue reading →
