“The Classic pork sandwich (contains pork).”

I guess I learned something today. I would not have guessed otherwise.

Tu saki?

A plane flying overhead.

Sofija and I needed to stay overnight at a hotel near Orlando airport. I purposely booked a hotel about 15 miles away from the airport so we don't get disturbed by planes. The only problem - our hotel was in the direct path for ascending planes out of the airport.

Slightly off the topic, but in the 1950s, the cost of an airline ticket was equivalent to the cost of a first-class ticket. More or less, only the one percenters could afford regular air travel back then, so the entire plane could have first-class amenities and services.

I stopped watching shortly after the third quarter started. I am seriously considering stopping following football altogether.

The frustrating thing about being a Bills fan this year is that you know that it's a talented team.

Today I learned that in Samoa, it's a crime to forget your wife's birthday.

But what about a wife forgetting her husband's birthday?

I am aware that the chances of that happening are super low, but still...

Tampa played excellent run defense against Cook, & I speculate they studied him & knew what to expect. Buf should have tried different running backs to see if it made a difference vs. of going with Cook 16x, who averaged 3 yards/carry. Why not try Ty Johnson more after he had 9 yards on one carry.

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

#Penny is dead!

Isn't that something!

It makes me wonder if there is going to be legislation to force the selling price to be multiples of nickels.

Have some faith, huh…

Today I started learning #Latvian #Gambit.

(Hey #Hollywood, it's an excellent name for a TV show or a movie:))

One of the first opponents I beat with my new skill set was from #Russia. How fitting!

That is something! Now, I am curious to find out how many times in history a write-in candidate has won.

I heard that the Lima elections got messy, but as an outsider, I was hesitant to take sides or form an opinion since I was not sure how reliable the information was that I was receiving.

What is next? For hell to freeze over?

My issue with Cuomo was less that he ran for mayor of NYC (which he shouldn't have) than that establishment Dems threw their support behind him, then wouldn't endorse Mamdani after the primaries. It showed how out of touch #DNC leadership is—and has been— with what people really want and need.

Bound for the Hounds 6 Hour Ultra The Bound for the Hounds 6 Hour Ultra is on Saturday November 15, 2025.

Bount for Hounds 6 Hour Ultra is becoming a staple in the #RochesterNY and #WNY #UltraRunning community, and it is for a good cause.

Also, it's one of the few, if not the only, races in the area that allows and encourages #dog participation.

I don't live in NYC. He was not on my balot.

I voted today selfie

Obligatory voted selfie.

Even though I first came to the US in 1994 and started living here full-time in 1997, I could not vote in any of the elections until 2016. That's how long it took for all the official paperwork to go through without any illegal or shady shortcuts to become a citizen.

Pamatojoties uz Latvijas Republikas Satversmes 71. pantu, prasu likuma “Par izstāšanos no Eiropas Padomes Konvencijas par vardarbības pret sievietēm un vardarbības ģimenē novēršanu un apkarošanu” (likumprojekta Nr. 1058/Lp14) otrreizēju caurlūkošanu.

Liels paldies!

I don't know who Amy Ozols is and what she does on #Jeopardy, but it is clear that she has some kind of #Latvian connection.

Ozols translated from Latvian to #English is Oak.

Rudenī viņa kā rupjmaize
Siltiem gabaliem laužama
Ziemā kabatā sildītu
Es viņu kā burkānu graužu

NATO. Vai ttiešām Eiropa un Rietumu valstis nesaprot ka Latvija ir spējīga sevi aizstāvēt no Krievijas militārajiem uzbrukumiem ar zobeniem, vairogiem un bultām!

Oh, we LOVE #ColinFromAccounts and we have seen all available seasons.

Did you know that stars of that show are married to each other in real life?

I'm tearing up seeing this... From the heartbreak and frustration the young pop is going through... To the patience of the veteran, showing and telling here is how...

Uh-oh! Cortisone shots helped me for about 6-7 months, but eventually I needed to get spinal confusion.

It was a pleasant surprise to see Cheesy Edy's products in that section, since whenever I buy their carrot cake, if I don't keep an eye on it, it just evaporates in our house... Luckily, only I am obsessed with their cheesecake in our household...
