50 years ago today, @holman_wang and I arrived in Vancouver from Taiwan with our mom, on what happened to be our dad's birthday. Here's a photo of our first Canadian Christmas, plus a photo of our mom in our first apartment. Happy 50th Anniversary to us, and Happy Birthday, Dad!

I received this award over a year ago. Today I finally received the plaque. The Central New York Book Award may not be a leg lamp, but I’m glad my humble little book has received recognition on both sides of the border.

Some grainy point-and-shoot selfies I took in Montreal at 21 or 22, before selfies were really a thing. Not sure what possessed me, except perhaps the feeling that I would never be that age, or that particular person, ever again.

I owned a Honda Elite 80 when I lived in Tucson, Arizona, half a lifetime ago. That scooter was stolen and never recovered. Today, a friend gifted me his. I still own the same jacket, so I must have known the scooter would come back, one way or another.
