On This Day last year, I attempted—and failed miserably—to correctly pronounce even half of the official name of this town in Wales.
I finally wrote about my visit to Cabinetlandia, which was five years ago yesterday. And in doing so, I fell down a rabbit hole of research about this fun project—stuff I really wish I had known when I first visited out of a whim. This has Web 1.0 feels all over it.
On This Day in 2020, it looks like I caught the leading edge of an incoming haboob here in Phoenix.
My favorite waterfall in Iceland was Dettifoss, which is also the “angriest” waterfall I’ve met. What a cool scene. But it was only one of a number of cool waterfalls we visited On This Day in 2021.
I’m helping my mom purchase a vehicle after hers was totaled in an accident. Since it’s on my mind, I put together a list of my own highly opinionated rules for car buying.
My vista on this day last year.

An essay in the New York Times this week—entitled I Reviewed Restaurants for 12 Years. They’ve Changed, and Not for the Better (🎁)—laments how technology has slowly dehumanized the dining experience.
It is just the latest in a series of changes that have gradually and steadily stripped the human touch and the human voice out of restaurants. Each of these changes was small, but together they’ve made going out to eat much less personal. Meals are different now, and our sense of who we are is different, too.
…
In my first few years on the job, I thought of restaurants as one of the few places left where our experiences were completely human.
It’s something I’ve noticed too, and wrote a little about earlier this year: Two Men in a McDonald’s in Small Town America.

My buddy is moving away, which means we needed one more Return to Paradise (Lounge).
