I was very happy when the Bundesliga restarted games and happier still when the Premier League restarted. These games, like the ones coming for MLS will have no fans in the stadium. No doubt the lack of home team fans affects the outcome of games. …
Everyone wore a mask on the flight. As far as I could tell, I was the only one wearing an N95. I'd feel comfortable on a longer flight, but only because of the N95. Clearly flight attendants and pilots do this everyday with a lesser mask including …
I traveled from LA to Denver last week. I was concerned prior to the trip about travel itself. I found that having taken precautions, I would do it again.
I am generally a cautious person, but for personal reasons felt I needed to take this trip. …
Visited my son in Denver last week. I'll start a separate post on air travel. Here is a picture of a mountain stream next to the trail to Chinns Lake about 10K feet above sea level.
30 years ago I quit flying because I couldn't justify the cost. I thought someday I'd get into ultralights (when they came out) so I could pay less to go nowhere slowly. Now all I need to do is convince my wife I won't die this way. Oh well :).

I meant to say the movie Her. Wish I could edit my posts :). I am sure that is on the list. There is a point when robots could be better than humans. This is when they achieve human intellectual skills, emotional and inter-personal but not …
Yes. I've been a USSF referee but focus my limited time on AYSO because I like the more balanced comradery from AYSO in general and from the AYSO referee community. I am not one who is looking for the income from USSF officiating.

Some like soccer to cheer on their team. Some love to play it. I became a referee 10 years ago and from the best seat in the house I love watching the battle, the strategy, and the skills of coaches, players and teams. Overtime it has provided an …
