This post reflects on the harsh realities of World War II and highlights a less-known rescue technology, the “Rescue Buoys.” These floating devices, equipped with essentials for survival, played a significant role in saving the lives of Allied forces during the war. While many were discarded post-war, efforts are ongoing to preserve the few that…
Let's face it. Almost every male is lazy in one aspect or another. Maybe it's hygiene. Maybe it's remembering anniversaries. Or maybe it's simply a matter of reaching that age where it could be all three, combined. But this post is focused on the lazy aspect. Except that this lazy…
Nope, that is not Ireland, but it sure looks like it, doesn't it? The only thing that is missing is cows . . . and people. Welcome to Dubai's World Islands project. Designed by Creative Kingdom Dubai, the development is an area that covers 6 by 9 kilometres (3.7 by 5.6 mi)…
Life's simple pleasures are the best, especially when Mother Nature puts hurdles in your way and you find a way around it. In this post, the hurdle was rather huge: millions of years of rock and water, all part of living in Sandoy, the first of the five southern islands that make up…
As of this writing, it's January 30, 2024, the planet is still on fire. We humans are not getting it. It's not like we don't know what's happening, or why, or how to fix it. According to NOAA's 2023 Annual Climate Report the combined land and ocean temperature has increased at an…
Can't have the Hawaii's without the lows? Or is it a case of Hawaii Five No?
`A`ohe loa i ka hana a ke aloha = Distance is ignored by love. And that is the case of the $10BN Railway in Hawaii. Skyline, often referred to as simply rail or the rail…
The ever humorous Douglas Adams always knew how to turn a phrase. He wrote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy that sold more than 15 million copies in his lifetime. Given the nature of that book, we're sure he would laugh with us at the irony of it all. As he quoted, “I…
Wouldn't that be a dream? Imagine walking out of the flight terminal, and then stepping on or off the plane, a plane that waits for you, only steps away. Imagine not having to push and shove to get a good seat, or a window seat. Does this sound too good to be…
We love The Netherlands. From the tulip fields, to the canals, to the people themselves, the country stands out in not only the European Union, but also in the minds of those who enjoy balanced and open-minded individuals who keep the greater whole in the frame as a model of how to live. …
If you're not too much into history, you might want to jump to any of our other 2000+ posts, but you may also want to stick with us here, because this is a wide-reaching discussion on how New York City blossomed into the behemoth that it is, and why - if you're the curious type…
Some of us live in cities that could probably be classed as a ghost town: Miriam Webster defines it as a "once-flourishing town wholly or nearly deserted usually as a result of the exhaustion of some natural resource." But, just as commonly, the source of its demise is the exhaustion of human resources.…
Have you been to Iceland? We have and it was certainly one-of-a-kind in so many ways and a must-see if you've not been. It feels like a European Nordic country, but also feels somewhat isolated and disconnected to its European mainland cousins. Hard to describe, but certainly unforgettable. If you have been…
No, this has nothing to do with hallucinogens, but that's your call. As is our wont, we're focusing on a rather nice place that you might want to consider for your next "trippy." As you will have no doubt guessed, we're featuring a trippy to Principe. And if you're not in the know,…
Relax - that title is not what you may think it is. We're covering Chihuahua in this post. Maybe a better name would be Mexico n' ruins. We've seen worse, though: we once heard someone pronounce it as "chiwowwow." And another variation that we love is "chi-hua hua" as if it was…
