Sandy suggested that yesterdays sunset would make a good photo. I disagreed thinking it was such a high contrast scene it wouldn’t work. I was wrong and now must apologize to the Filipino Community at large.

Canon S90 Review
Jim asked for a review of my Canon S90. There a number of photo websites that offer reviews of the S90 so I’ll try not to rehash information. What I use it for: my photography pretty much revolves around sharing my life on the blog. Work – Occasionally I shoot a photo for work if I …
OT in Honolulu
I know I was just there last week. If I keep this up they’re gonna give the account to someone else. As usual I didn’t have much time to do anything. I did have my usual coffee from Honolulu Coffee Co.

Forever banished from the house for using my iron skillet to cook scrambled eggs! I got so mad I put his butt on a plane to the Philippines! He’s never allowed back. Just joking. Geo’s vacation sadly had to come to an end. We ate at Firewood Grill at the international terminal. Sandy munched on …
Animal House
Tonight I picked up Sandy & Geo from the airport. Geo is hungry 20 hours a day, so it’s a good thing we got a home equity line of credit. Tonight he took it easy on us and had a craving for In N Out Burger. He got his 1st taste of Animal Style burger …
Burd in the Oven
This morning I came into the kitchen and found Judy at the oven. My guess is that she wanted to free my lunch time chicken from its fiery death or she was trying to turn the heat down to ruin the crispy skin to spite me.
