A 1959 El Dorado … a long way from home!
Less than 10 hours to go … going to be fun …
Just finished reading: The Man Who Died Twice: A Thursday Murder Club Mystery by Richard Osman 📚
… and what a delight it was.
Found on Facebook - I guess it still has some uses!

Just Finished Reading: Taste: My Life Through Food by Stanley Tucci 📚
I don’t write many book reviews but for this one I will make an exception - with a good reason - but not yet.
I will be back. (If you will pardon a spot of ‘Arny Channeling’ !!!)
Europe clears Facebook-Kustomer with API access commitments.
TLDR: EU writes
“Dear Meta - absolutely you can buy Kustomer - but you still have to get rid of Giphy.”
🎬 Knives Out 2 is Expected to Release in Late 2022
This is a perfect example of why I know that I am an edge case.
I don’t even get why they bothered making ‘Knives Out’ to begin with.
Rebuilding My Micro Blog 🚧
By simply adding stuff / pages and plugins to my blog without thinking something eventually had to break - and it did. My thanks to @manton and @pimoore for pointing out the error. Turns out Hitchens doesn’t include a ‘Replies’ page - which caused my archive to disappear.
Flat Earth time. I mean - everything. (Barring two hidden pages being used for 🖇️ 🔎The Readers Republic ).
The Rebuild
- Install Hitchens ✅ - thankyou @pimoore
(need to move my footer into Hitchens footer.) - Install Conversation ✅ - thankyou @sod
- Install Surprise Me ✅ - thankyou @sod
- Reply By EMail ✅ - thankyou @sod

Now that opening I did not expect.
I really like PowerPhotos, a Mac App that lets you run multiple iPhoto libraries and move images between them.
iPhotos can then access any one of these files that are based on topics. My main library is then uncluttered.
Does anyone know of something similar in the iOS world?
Randy Singer of Apple User Group fame has just extended his site references to free Apple software. Nice and useful list. I can’t speak to the quality of the software - but coming from AUGD, I don’t think it will be ‘risky’ software.
I’m so used to stuff synching twixt devices that I just sent 5 minutes messing with settings to fix functionality that doesn’t exist.
Yet Another Telecom-Backed Think Tank Insists U.S. Broadband Is Great, Actually
Stunned I tells ya. Stunned.
”Craig Tiley insists that the door will be open for Djokovic to enter the 2023 edition of the grand-slam tournament should he wish to. This would rely on the Australian government granting the nine-times champion a waiver from a three-year visa ban for “compelling reasons”, after he was deported from the country on January 16.”
This from The Sunday Times.
So a three year ban is meaningless?
You would have thought by now that they might have realized that shooting yourself in the foot is not a good idea … doesn’t seem to stop them though!
I did say that I wouldn’t post another Wordle until I nailed it in two. … and ✅
