Day 2 of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine

02/25/2022 Doug: Today, I have to try to do some product photography, and help Becky with some things around the house.

Different Lives

This is an ongoing comparison of day to day life of me, in the USA, and a few people that are from, or live in Ukraine, during the Russian Invasion. Often on the news, we will get a 1-2 minute story on someone, but it is rare to learn about them. After all, they are […]

Let’s talk Keyboards. Matias Keyboards from Canada.

A few years ago, I made a jump from PC to Mac. One of the things I really liked about the Mac was the iMessage, and that I could answer texts on the computer. But not everyone uses iMessage. all know what it’s’ like to answer texts on the phone. It’s amazing just how much […]

Escort MAX 360
