There is a small handful of songs that I absolutely cannot listen to, for various reasons. "You Are My Sunshine" tops the list. It so incredibly sad... even thinking about it to type this comment is really difficult. Like, hide-

Wow... I lived in Dillingham for several years, and have been to Igiugig several times. Never ever would have thought I'd read about it on the web, let alone HackerNews.

I've started a few Google et al. maps of them but never get around to actually doing something with them. Maybe I'll move my 3am hobby up a notch and start posting or contributing to forgottenairfields.

I have a low-grade hobby of scanning around in Google Maps looking for old airfields in the UK. Pretty easy to spot when you know what patterns to look for, even when they've been ploughed under and are a wheat field now.

Even in the most trivial sense, I have seen it in action. Me (normal looking guy) and the GF (average-trending-to-pretty) at a fast food restaurant. I go up to the counter and ask for a couple extra sauce packets, only to be told they are

I lived in Fairbanks, Alaska, for 25 years. On numerous occasions the aurora were bright enough that you could easily see to walk safely at night without a flashlight. Yes, it was a dim green glow on the ground but looking up directly at t

I went through paramedic school in Los Angeles in the early 90s and worked along side US Army medics who were sent there to learn how to deal with trauma cases. Ah, good times at UCLA Medical Centre and MLK.
