Popped by work to pick up paperwork for tomorrow’s job. Had to grab coffee and cake while I was there
I got some blowback after posting about the Charlie Kirk assassination yesterday. I certainly didn’t share the guy’s views, but it is very wrong to celebrate someone’s death because you don’t. I got told I was being disrespectful because I stated I disagreed with him. #politics
Tonight, 24 years ago… 246 passengers went to bed, ready for their morning flights. 2,606 people laid down, preparing for another workday. 343 firefighters rested before their morning shift. 60 police officers prepared for patrol. 8 paramedics closed their eyes before duty. That night was the last time fathers and mothers hugged their children, husbands kissed their wives, and loved ones held each other close. None of them lived beyond 10:00 a.m. on September 11, 2001. In a single instant, life was changed forever. So today, as you breathe, cherish it. And tonight, before you sleep in preparation for tomorrow, hold your loved ones tighter, say the words that matter, and never take one moment for granted. We will never forget.
As I am sitting at home journalling, I thought it would make eminent sense to decamp to the local pub with my MacBook to continue the task with a pint to accompany me. #pub
Someone, somewhere, on which platform I cannot remember, was asking if anyone listened to music through headphones while home alone. I’m doing that right now. Some music lends itself more to headphone listening, in my opinion.
Many people dislike the Apple Mouse. I’ve never had a problem with it myself. It does what I need it to do without any fuss or tantrums. Never loses connectivity. apple
I found my Apple Trackpad. Charged it up. Now I’ve got both a trackpad and a mouse on my desk. I’m going to keep them both there and see which one I reach for the most often. #apple
The problem with good headphones? I have to be VERY careful not to be late going out somewhere, as I get lost in the #music, and always want to play one more track.
Sometimes, these Ananda Nano headphones make me jump. I’m sitting at home alone, listening to some jazz. In a quiet part, someone, on the recording, coughed, to my left. I jumped and looked around as I thought someone was in the room behind me. The detail, clarity and soundstage are that good. #headphones #music
I have some good coffee along with The Very Tall Band from Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown and Milt Jackson. #coffee #music
