I’m an instructor (OSHA classes and also CPR) and the subject of fake moon landings and/or flat earth comes up more frequently in my classes than you would believe. A lot of people out there believe the moon landings were staged.

When I was searching for information on the launch yesterday morning I came across some (many) posts on social media stating that this was going to be another Hollywood production, man had never been to outer space or the moon, etc etc. There is no way Hollywood could stage a production like...

Just watched it live! Incredible!

I think spiders are amazing creatures. The web was so beautiful and over 8 feet in diameter. It was so strong too. It was especially beautiful with the morning dew, when the sun was shining on it.

When I have stayed in hotels in Canada baked beans have been served at breakfast, right alongside the scrambled eggs and toast.

I found this amazing spider web, it measured over eight feet in diameter. Although it is difficult to see in the photo the spider is in the middle.

Because we were a party of 16 there was an automatic 20% gratuity added, which we knew because it was stated on the menu. But we made sure no one tipped any additional. We read the reviews after we left and found that many people had complained about the servers. But, like us, everyone...

Last night a group of friends went to a hibachi restaurant. There were 16 of us seated in a square with two hibachi grills in the middle. One hibachi chef at each grill, facing toward the outside, each cooking for 8. We had been planning this for some time, but we wanted to wait until two of...

We visited World of Coke in Atlanta, and they have a tasting room where you can sample Coke flavors from around the world. Japan had some very unique Coke flavors, including cucumber, melon, cherry blossom, and some that included fiber. Several vegetable flavors of Coke or Sprite.

Costco and Trader Joe’s both have Dubai chocolate. My daughter loves them.

My daughter used to make sourdough bread and we’ve been eating it ever since then. She started making during COVID (like many others) when she had lots of extra time and bread was in short supply in grocery stores. She had done the research and (like you) found out that sourdough was healthier...

If you like sourdough bread, my favorite is Stone House Bread from Traverse City, Michigan. It has few ingredients and is the best I’ve ever had. It makes excellent toast, grilled cheese, garlic bread, croutons for salad, and sandwiches. I buy it when I’m working in Michigan, other times I...

Thank you! I’ll have to try the brown eggs. I love the white ones.

For breakfast today I made Toad in the Hole with basted eggs, sourdough bread, snipped green onions, and fresh grated parmesan reggiano. I like to use Eggland’s Best eggs if I can’t get farm fresh. My friend’s chickens have stopped laying so I have to buy eggs from the store now. I like...

Back in 1981 President Reagan fired 11,345 air traffic controllers who were on strike. Politics have long played a part in air traffic control staffing. https://www.npr.org/2021/08/05/1025018833/looking-back-on-when-president-reagan-fired-air-traffic-controllers
