My original plan was to put together a video from the BBQ and Brew Festival at Worlds of Fun for today's post. I have one, and will be making comments here about the festival. But before I do that, I want to discuss my "celebrity" status I experienced on Saturday. Saturday was a perfect weather … Continue reading Worlds of Fun Celebrity

A Look Ahead …
This past weekend, along with the next two weekends, is the BBQ and Brew Festival at Worlds of Fun. So I've chosen a look back, at last year's festival, as a way to look forward to this year's. This coming Saturday, like when I posted about last year's festival, is also the Kansas City Corporate … Continue reading A Look Ahead …
A Blast of the Past #94: India, Part 5
With a heavy work schedule, I didn't take time to tour Mumbai much until my last night there, where many from the office took me on an all-night tour of the city that ran into the next morning. We saw sights from the uptown, to the downtown, from waterfront to the airport. It was a … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #94: India, Part 5
Renewing a Passport
My first trip out of the United States (except for Canada -- back in the days when that didn't require a passport) was 10 years ago. So the renewal of my passport is coming up this summer. Since we are working on summer travel plans that might include a foray into Canada, and since it … Continue reading Renewing a Passport
A Blast of the Past #93: India, Part 4
I spent two weeks in India, which means I had one weekend between them -- one free weekend. So I flew halfway across the country from Mumbai to Bangalore. Why? Because I had friends there. When I met Kumar and Shanthi, they lived in my hometown, Corning, NY, working for Corning, INC. They also led … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #93: India, Part 4

The above photo was taken on Saturday in the new entry plaza. My family was too busy with church and larger family activities on Easter to actually make it to … Continue reading A Look Ahead …

Worlds of Fun: First Weekend Impressions
It is an interesting fact: Worlds of Fun is an amusement park, with rides. I and my family have been there every day so far they have been open, and none of us have ridden a ride yet. Even so, we are getting a lot of "amusement" out of the park. The no rides thing … Continue reading Worlds of Fun: First Weekend Impressions
Sneak Peak and WOF opening day
Today's post is coming late for a couple of reasons. Primarily because I was busy and didn't get to write one earlier, but also because I decided to do it on something that happened this evening. Last week I wrote a roundup of upcoming events that included The Gold and Platinum Pass sneak peak at … Continue reading Sneak Peak and WOF opening day
Standing Desk: I am Autonomous
Today's post is a quick, mostly pictorial one. It features one of my most recent purchases: An adjustable height desk. My company has a different brand of adjustable desks at work, and I probably spend about half my time standing and half sitting during a regular work day. Since I have the option to work … Continue reading Standing Desk: I am Autonomous
