I saw this today. I didn’t see news about David Ogden Spiers passing.
MASH was one of those long running TV shows that I didn’t follow specifically or exclusively as a teen, but every time I saw it on I would sit and watch.…

Just You and Me (Chicago)
I was on facebook the other night and saw a post of Chicago’s “Just You and Me” video in one of the music oldies groups I’m in. I liked listening to Chicago back in the day. when I heard this song tho, it brought back a flurry of unexpected memories, thoughts, and feelings. Nothing defined and nothing pivotal in my life at the time.…

Frannie hanging out with us
Chilling and cruising day. Frannie, Lou and I went to Dai Ichi Ramen for lunch. Lou wanted to go there to have Frannie try udon noodles. Then we went to Kamakana Alii Mall for halo halo dessert at Magnolia Ice Cream & Treats. We briefly stopped at that zipline place next to the Kalaeloa housing to pick up brochures of what they have to offer.…

Before the Microsoft Monopoly
I was thinking about old technology, old software a while back while working on the last laptop I bought and the purchasing/licensing stuff required of MS Office, how it’s all online download/install. No more being sent discs! And in my mind, the sometimes hassle of re-installation because there’s no “back” install discs to go to.…

Frannie (Bamba) Turner
Lou and I picked Frannie up at her sister’s house in Wahiawa and we went to dinner. Monterey Bay Canners. It was good seeing her after all these (40!) years and catching up.
Eyes right! Forward March! What the hell…

Military/Army (current, former, future) people, do you know the structural organization and mechanics of drill commands? Yeah okay I’m most definitely not the one to be talking about drill and ceremony since I’ve never been in ‘those kinds’ of units that do formations and marching troops.…

Nostalgic Leisure Suit Larry!
Damn how I remember playing this back in the day! It always lent to my naughty thoughts/inclinations which made the game fun. I think it was one of the first full featured storyline type computer games for mature audiences.
This is the “reloaded” version. Gotta find the original…
Mahalang for my baby – Bee Gees Too Much Heaven
Yeah, okay, I was into the Bee Gees back in the day. From disco days. Tho, this song didn’t represent partying disco nights for me.
I was just 4-5 months into the Army at the time, in AIT at Fort Gordon, GA, and severely, miserably missing my baby (Lou). I’d spend almost every evening writing to her… about anything, about nothing.…

The Tandy 1000SL
Nostalgia attack this evening after searching for some computer stuff and I saw a thing about a Tandy 1000TX computer. My first computer purchase to replace the dinosaur C/PM based Xerox computer we had was a Tandy 1000SL. I bought it at Radio Shack in Waynesboro, PA while killing time waiting for Lou who was in K-Mart next door.…
