Been building a bridge decked with Brazilian Ipe wood. Saving some scraps because it is high quality lumber and so dense it doesn’t float.

I think there should be dedicated word for when you slide bacon around on a hot pan to grease it to avoid sticking later in the cooking process.

Anyone remember the series Kung Fu from the 70's? They made a continuation of it in the 90's about the protagonist's grand and great grandson. The 90's show was alright, if not a little cheesy at times. The one thing that stuck with me about it was that the main character kept his grandfather's, father's, and his own journal, receiving and passing down wisdom. That was such a cool concept to me at the time and still is. I journal sporadically, but have never been able to maintain a daily journal over long stretches of time. I've had the best success with text files, but even they are sprinkled all around. I've recently tried journaling in a physical notebook and there is something very pleasant about it. Do any of you journal?

Going through some old photos and found some Jim Lovell stuff. RIP!

I keep revisiting Benjamin Franklin’s daily routine because it’s such a powerful, beautiful, and simple thing.

Go touch grass and redwoods.

Another beautiful day on the West Coast.

I like digital paper storage, but this might be a step up.

Fun fact, the terms optimize and optimization are almost never found in literature before 1950.

My wife always keeps tabs on Dick Van Dyke because we want him to make it to 100 in December. Keep dancing folks!
