I pay $10.00 for 2TB of iCloud storage.
I think we should build better photo storage software service.
I used to use Aperture software from Apple ... then they stop supporting it. So I had to switch to Photos ... The transfer was not very good and I had to re-enter a lot of text. Now with almost 133,000 photos, Photos is crapping out on me often. Apple is loosing its quality control.
I reported on NE 8th reducing speed from 35 Mph to 25Mph few days ago. It is now reduced to 25Mph.
Well, actually city is doing some construction and lanes are reduces from 4 lanes to 2 lanes. That was the reason for this speed reduction of 10Mph. I understand the reason for this completely. But when it was announced, all they said was "Speed Reduced to 25Mph" with no explanation what so ever.
They should have communicate it better. It is important for any business to communicate better with customers and vendors.
My father is the head of an organization called Ashiya PC ... their mission is to teach elders how to use PCs so they can communicate better with younger generations.

This is a challenging golf course.
The home of 2017 The NCAA Regional

Here are the reason why.
(1) Play at one of the best PRIVATE golf courses in the State of Washington.
(2) 100% proceed goes to University of Washington Foster School of Business scholarship.
(3) You can play scramble or stroke.
(4) Lunch and full dinner with drink.
(5) Meet all the sponsors at almost every hole.
I did not know this was another CHASE credit card.
I have open a credit card with CHASE AMAZON PRIME and received $70 credit. I was going to cancel Amazon Prime account because it is going up from $99 to $119 starting next month for me. With is credit card, I guess I will keep my Amazon Prime account for one more year.
Depending on how much I used on Amazon and Whole Foods, I will see if I am going to keep both Amazon Prime and Chase Amazon Prime VISA card next year.
Sign said speed limit will be 25mph starting June 25.
8th Ave in Bellevue is a wide 4 lane street with center divider. Somehow, the city decided to make this street speed limit down to 25mph from 35mph. I have no idea why they do this other than the fact that the city wants to earn speeding ticket. This is just very annoying.
I was asked what program I use to draw Pompom ... Well, it is called Adobe Draw on my iPad. They thought it was computer generated images ... no, I hand draw each one of them myself based on the picture I took.
I take it as a complement ... People thought it was drawn by a computer.
I played golf today. I was behind the PGA professional. He played from the very back tee which I have never played before. His drive was at least 50 years ahead of me and was hitting at least 50 years longer. That means he was consistently hitting a ball al least 100 years longer, at least.
That made me swing a lot slower. I realized I am not a long hitter I used to be. Because of that, I played one of my best round. I shot 43/41 ... that is 84. I should play like this more often.
It opened 11:00am
I got there 11:15 ... there were about 10 people inside waiting.This is their signature Ramen
very spicyThere were line of people outside when I was done eating.
Ramen has became a very popular food in the US. But they are extremely expensive. This is one of the most well know ramen shop in Japan. Their most expensive item is less than $10 (tax included) and no tipping in Japan.
On April 9, 2018, the Seattle City Council passed a resolution that moves Seattle closer to nearly doubling the per mile rate for rideshare—ignoring the more than 25,000 riders and drivers who have signed a petition to keep rideshare affordable and accessible.
The fight is not over. Stand up for the hundreds of thousands of people who rely on rideshare solutions to earn an income and get around Seattle by emailing the City Council today.
When the disaster happens in Japan, all the commercial WiFi carriers will open free WiFi to anyone and the WiFi spot is called 00000JAPAN (or Five Zero Japan).
So, if you are traveling in Japan and you encounter disaster like major earthquake, look for 00000JAPAN WiFi signals.
Tiny made me get Pompom ... Pompom and Tiny were the best friends. Now, Pompom is gone, I still take carte of Tiny. I am sure Tiny wish Pompom were here.
I was thinking of cancelling Amazon Prime membership because of the fee increase from $99 to $119. But I found the way to reduce that fee. I just applied for Amazon Prime VISA card that came with $70 annual credit for Amazon Purchase.
This is drive recorder for bikes ... You need to professionally install it but you can record both from and back. 1080 HD cameras can record in the central unit housed under the seat. I thought it was a great design.
I was told that there were people living near the creek at Bellevue Highland Park. They were removed. I went to check out the location and found several notices. I am happy to see them go ... but where did they go?
Advanced Marking and Sign (http://www.tacomarubberstamp.com) created a metal plate for the memorial for Pompom. It was delivered while i was in Japan. I wish I did not have to make this, but it is good to have something that lasts long time.
This shows his birthday (happy), adoption date (happier) and departed date (sad).
Most people commute to work by train in Tokyo. It is not practical to use your car in the places like Tokyo. Besides, subway and rail systems are so well designed, you can practically go anywhere in Tokyo by train cheaper and faster.
The flight AC8091 was cancelled.I ended up flying Alaska.
This trip was one of those trips. The last leg of my journey was a short flight from Vancouver to Seattle ... Well, my flight got canceled and Air Canada rebooked me to Alaska from Vancouver to Seattle, three hours later.
I finished everything I planned and I am at Narita Airport. I am on my way back to Seattle. t do have a heavy heart because Pompom is not waiting for me to come back.
I was walking Akihabara yesterday and I saw a porn video booths featuring VR movies. People are now making porn in VR format. It is incredible how fast this porn industry adopt to new technologies.
I receive a message on Linked In introducing themselves. I check the website and found out they are located next to the hotel I am staying. So I reached out to the company ... Then something went completely wrong.
Do I look good?This is what I made
HOYA Light Lenses
I made a pair of glasses including eye exam for 2,160Yen or about US$20.
The place is called 369 Plus Glasses ...
I asked what is “369 Plus” stands for. And he told me they used to sell glasses for 3,000. 6,000. 9,000yen and plus. So they named themselves 369 Plus. Since them they have lowered prices.
I had a dream ... I was in the different world ... But I have been there before. I don’t remember much but it is not this life. I was also drwaing in that world as well. I think I need to get back to bed.
I have arrived in Japan last night.
The plane was delayed about 40 minutes ... I think this is one of those trip all my schedules do not come on time.
I slept and woke up early. It was Sunday morning.
I took a morning walk to famous Tsukiji Market. Of cause it was closed.
The entire place was clouded with tourists eating Sushi at 8:30 in the morning.
I could not do that. Besides, I think the price there are inflated for tourists.
I usually eat banana and some other fruits in the morning. But here in Taipei, this hotel has one of the best breakfast. So, I decided to change a little. I eat big breakfast and lunch but skip diner. I skipped dinner for two nights sop that I can have big breakfast. This might not be a bad routine.
Until yesterday, COMPUTEX was not open to Local Vistors. Starting today, they opened the door to local vistors. The place was packed even more.
Did you know COMPUTEX pass alllows you to get on any bus or subway in Taipei? This tells you I how much they appriciate you coming to Taipei. Unlike many countries and cites just see you as a revenue source.
I have found few things in last two days art COMOPUTEX.
I will do more research when I get back..
This is a really interesting show. I find some things that are not being displayed.
How do court stenographers keep a straight face?
These are from a book called "Disorder in the Court" and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while the exchanges were taking place.
I think all were from the law firm of Dewey, Screwem & Howe.

My flight from Seattle to Vancouver was delegated 40 minutes. Whe I git to Vancouver, the door was already closed on Taipei flight. They asked me to fly to Hong Kong and then to Taipei. I did not want to do that, so I asked if I could fly to Narita the to Taipei.
They were able to book me to Narita and booked ANA to Taipei. It will take few hours longer but i will get there today, Air Canada ground person went out of her way to secure my flight through Narita. I am very thankful. For that I will fly Air Canada again for sure.
You don’t get over it – You just get through it. You don’t get by it – because you can’t get around it. It doesn’t get better – it just gets different. Everyday – Grief puts on a new face.

Fist of all, it is impossible to be liked by everyone. At the same time, no matter how bad you are, there will be someone who likes you. So they key is know who you want to be liked and design your post around those people. If you want to sell your products, you need to know who might buy your products.
As you get more popular, you will be hated by some people ... You need to ignore them. Yes, they are like back ground noise. No matter what you do, they will hate you. Look at President Trump ... people will find the way to hate him and say thing like "he has done nothing."
Do not try to convince someone about your way of thinking. There will be people understand your way and there will be people just do not even try understand. Don't waste your time and effort. They will not change.
Don't be discouraged when there is nobody likes you. Keep doing what you are doing, there will be people there for you. If will get nothing when you quit. Just spend little time writing anything. Continuation is more important than one good article. Good luck and keep writing.
Handicap being in its 15.x for three years, it is finally starting to move down. As of today, my handicap is 14.0. It is not as good as I have been but it is starting to move in the good direction. My goal this year is to get to under 13. That will be wonderful.
