We ate at my favorite Mexican restaurant tonight. Taco salad for the wife and deluxe burrito and a side order of rice for me. They make their own chips and salsa that is always special.

I was amazed how the aid industry has evolved in the six years I've been associated. With the AI chips and adaptive learning, they have come a long ways in a short time. I gave my aids a chance to wow me at a restaurant tonight. I was able to understand my wife across the table from me for...

That inhales sharply. I shot many rounds of 9mm and 22 LR as a youth and never thought much about it. My first personal handgun was a Ruger Super Blackhawk in 44mag. It made my ears ring but only for a short time. I guess I was lucky. I can't imagine them ringing all of the time. That's...

My hearing is in the dirt. Too much hunting/shooting as a kid without protection and then working over five decades in a noisy environment took a toll. But..... I feel blessed that I do not suffer from tinnitus. That has to be a miserable condition and I'm so sorry for anyone that suffers.

Nut smokin time again. I have 80oz of cashews cold smoking today. Though the last bunch was tasty, they were mild mannered Kent. I went back to the full strength recipe. I'm the one who eats most of them so why not make them hot and spicy like I want. It's not like they are flaming hot...

I'm looking forward to another beautiful day in Kansas. It is 54° this morning and a high of 74° is predicted. There is to be some wind from the South today, but after all, this is Kansas.

Are those Tizzas or Pacos?

I had zero luck going East. I got some great long exposure pics of the clouds that moved in. My daughter, on the other hand, had some luck being North of Wichita. Here is one of her pics.

I filled my morning by doing laundry and then firing up the mowers and mulching the current piles of leaves. It was 70° at noon and I was heading out on the bike. I rode my loop once and came back home. It was too warm to be riding in my windproof jersey. I put on a traditional jersey and...

I was graced with narrow hips and nothing for a bum. I find sweats awkward to wear. I have to tie them on super tight or they are falling off. Then I have to untie them to relieve myself and at my age, that's often. I don't hate on them, they just aren't my thing. As for saving my tossed...
