Ruth's Chris 2023

Year 3! This year’s trip was a bit more wet than usual but still gave me much needed sun and warm weather. The thing with rain in Honolulu is that it comes and goes. It’ll pour for 5 mins and the sun will come out. As expected… Maki no showed.  17 total views

Ruth's Chris Waikiki - 2022

Back to our regularly scheduled programming. This is year two to see if Maki will put some effort into her friendships or if she really just uses people. Obviously, with the pandemic, I didn’t expect her to go in 2021 when I can’t even get there. We’re finally able to travel again so I went […]

More Broken Promises

I didn’t want to post this right away because I wanted to give her a chance to actually make good on her promise but it’s been almost 3 months now. These were the last words she sent to me. My sincerest apologies. I admit I was not a good friend in the end. I will […]

Ruth's Chris Waikiki - 2020

As you probably already know from the Best Friend Breakup post, I told Maki that the she could find me at Ruth’s Chris in Waikiki on her birthday for the next 5 years. I don’t expect her to show up because that’s too much effort for her, she never puts effort into her friendships. Welp, […]

December 2019, I broke up with my best friend for the past 20 years. It was the hardest thing I had to do. I spent 5 days and nights in NYC to get some alone time to write the following letter. She didn’t even bother to open it so I’m posting it up on my […]

So I Built a Wooden Scrabble Board

I recently took 3 weeks off from work. They were vacation days that I did not use the previous year so I had to use them or lose them. Being forced to take these three weeks, I didn’t really have anything planned out aside from a quick drive to Portland to visit an old friend. […]

This time courtesy of Joseph Foo out of Brampton Ontario. This jerk buys a phone off me on eBay, a phone that I listed as “For Parts or Not Working”.  Fine and dandy, no problem.  Figure the transaction would go on like the several other transactions I’ve had on eBay selling used phones.  The previous […]

My New XBMC Media Center PC in a Vintage JVC-7200U VCR

I’ve been using a PC as a media player with my TV for almost the past 7 years.  It started with the introduction of Windows XP Media Center, I tried it out and fell in love with it.  I setup a permanent computer dedicated to playing media from my server.  Over time, it’s evolved into […]

I’ve always been told that I should keep my money in a savings account and that’s what I’ve been doing all these years until recently.  I’ve had a change of opinion and dumped all my money into my TFSA and purchased shares in several funds yielding at least 10% annually and the pay monthly.  The […]

Fake Zoosk Profiles

Since some a few people asked for proof of fake Zoosk profiles, I spent some time to do reverse image searches with Google on a number of profiles.  Process was simple, click and drag an image into the Google image search box. I started  with the profiles that I tried to communicate with and got […]
