If you visit Fox’s Website, you might notice an ad for the 24 game. It’s kind of a fun game (though entirely unrealistic). If you complete all of the objectives, you gain access to a “reward”. I spent about a two hours last night trying and trying to complete all of the objectives. I =FINALLY=…

Well, my website is changing, anyway. And not a lot, just a bit. I did want to point out a few new features that I’ve added over the past couple of weeks. I have added a “5 Most Recent Posts” section for those people who visit the site regularly, but not frequently. If you’re using…

So, in the creation of my 2005 calendar, I needed to know the correct method for capitalizing the names of animals. Google found this: From “Merriam-Webster Concise Handbook for Writers”: “The common names of animals and plants are not capitalized unless they contain a proper noun as a separate element, in which case the proper…

Ah yes, Episode Five. Wherein Thomas gets sick of writing about the trite crap he did in Hawaii, so he wraps it up in this one. Thursday. We got up early and went to the USS Arizona Memorial. I’ve been there a million times, but my dad never had! None of us could believe it…

Randomness: On New Year’s Eve, Morah and I had dinner at Fugazzi, I really classy restaurant in downtown Spokane. The food was good, but the wine was what really caught my attention. I’m not sure our meal was really worth $100 (we only paid half of that thanks to a gift certificate I won at…

Wednesday morning was a wet one. Kalihi is normally wet (as are many valleys on the island), but it was raining all over the island, so our plans had to change. We took our time getting ready and met my parents downtown. Through an old friend of hers, my mum had arranged for us to…

I’ve never been one for New Year’s resolutions, but this year I have one. This year, I resolve to get into better shape. Before you roll your eyes and think, “That old resolution? =Everyone= makes that resolution and never keeps it,” consider what my resolution is saying. I’m not saying, “I resolve to go on…

It occurred to me that I forgot to mention the food we ate after we went to Hanauma Bay and Sea Life Park. For lunch, Morah, Ashley and I went to a plate lunch shop called Loco Moco Drive Inn. The food there was excellent. For an afternoon snack, Morah and I went to Zippy’s…

I have so much to tell you about and I don’t know where to begin! Right away, memories came flooding back. Everywhere I looked, I saw things that I hadn’t seen in years. It was interesting to see what I had forgotten that, for whatever reason, was important to me. A particular building, a specific…

The people with whom Morah and I are staying have broadband Internet access, so it looks like I will be able to post after all! We got to the Spokane airport about two hours before our flight was scheduled to take off. You always hear about how security takes forever to get through and is…
