There’s rich history concerning the ancient Olympics and equally fascinating information pertaining to the modern Olympics. While I only broke down the list of year, summer or winter, city and country, it’s all quite fascinating. I’m looking forward to February when it all starts. Sources: IOC/Wikipedia
Time really does fly by. It’s the Winter Olympics soon. I remember the “Flying Tomato” missing standing on the podium in the snowboarding half-pipe event at the Sochi games. Shaun White gets his chance again in PyeongChang. I’m excited to see how it materializes. I hope he gets a chance to redeem himself. I…
Outstanding police departments can make you feel safe in your community. I would venture to say they are cities not heavily populated, which are basically small town U.S.A. Corrupt police departments can dampen a whole city’s image. Los Angeles comes to mind, which The Shield is loosely based from, and in particular the Rampart Division. …
Supercentenarians are people who live past the age of 110. This is few and far between given everything that is happening today, but surprisingly, there are more in existence than I thought. I admit it’s crossed my mind when I’ll bite the big one. I guess time will tell. In the meantime, here’s a few…
The Blind Date She told me to not be so damn perfect. It wasn’t that I was trying all that hard. I told her this. I truly did. I did. I did, I did, I did, I did, and I did. You think she listened to me. No. No. No. Each no for what I…

This makes me hungry for popcorn. Good thing I have some leftover from Thor: Ragnarok. Many more puzzles to put together. Oh, how fun. Stay tuned for the next puzzle that won’t be food related.
Finally Saw a Movie in a Theater I went to a movie I intended seeing in one of my previous blogs. FINALLY!!! Thor: Ragnarok is the third installment in this franchise. I bet my hands there will be another one based on how the movie ended. No, I will not tell you how it ended,…
It’s been an interesting weekend, to say the least, but I managed to get a few photos Friday night after work. I thought I’d have more time to myself, but life is unexpected, and didn’t get as much time as originally intended. I’ve been thinking about quite a few things, which is nothing new, and…
