Reading Time: < 1 minute This is the replacement light bulb at Amazon: last purchased Sep 14, 2022 (replace one about 2 years ago; replace another one this evening). One driver flashed me yesterday evening. And this evening a neighbor told me one of the light for my minivan is out 🙂 Took me a while to find the other

Reading Time: < 1 minute Yesterday afternoon, I attended the visitation of a former colleague. Although my boss and colleague didn’t say explicitly, it’s quite apparent to me, that the former colleague took his own life. This is the charity the family suggest donation in lieu of flowers. I googled “PTSD for veterans”, and this resource website by va.gov pops

Reading Time: 3 minutes My thoughts on #RFKJr nomination of the department of HHS. First I would say nobody or very few people would know him if not for his last name and family connections. He is a #VaccineDenier which may have negative impact on the health of the babies, the toddlers, the younger kids in the US. I

Reading Time: 4 minutes 中文简体读者：这里有一个谷歌翻译的版本，可能不是最新的版本，但大意差不多。 Yesterday (Sunday) afternoon I drove for Uber the first time, after I thought and talked about it for a bit. Note I still have the day job – this is mostly to supplement my income, and also gain some experience/have some fun. I also wrote a Twitter/X thread here. A few things to do

Reading Time: 2 minutes (11-03-2024 更新) 我上载了一个油管视频，是关于这个主题的，欢迎各种意见反馈。 (有人在小红书上问 #圣路易斯 哪里比较 #安全，我猜可能是华大学生，以下是我的回答）：综合考虑，建议住 #Clayton, #Brentwood, #Olivette 等。如果有上K-12的小孩，学区来讲，Olivette (Ladue), 和 Clayton 是密苏里公立学校/学区里面第一和第二名。Brentwood ranked 12th in the state of Missouri on Niche.com. 其它也有不少地方是安全的,比如 Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Maryland Heights, 绝大部份的 west county, south county. West county 和south county 要稍远一些。 我自己的的经历 我从2000年秋天到圣路易斯。一开始在Bridgeton (机场✈️附近）住了一年。住在那里的主要原因是当时我刚到圣路易斯，我有一个朋友住在那个小区，那个公寓离我上班的地方（办公室）也挺近。This is the apartment. I think it’s generally okay to live there –

Reading Time: 2 minutes My 14 year old (when she was almost 14) decided to switch to this electric toothbrush given by the Orthodontist office and after a while she wanted to order the replacement toothbrush heads. This is not the most common electric toothbrush and I had to order the replacement heads at the their official website. But

Reading Time: < 1 minute 今天一大早，我家大娃第一次出城比赛，不是钢琴🎹或其它乐器，不是数学，sci-only, 是 XC( cross country #越野跑）😂. 兵分两路，老爸（yours truly) 将跑第八个’Due Run. 大概算了下，God’s Willing, 等小娃高中毕业🎓，还有八个’Due Run. 结果：两个人大概都跑了34分钟多一点😂 PS: 拉肚学区啥都卷，小朋友们卷小朋友的东西，家长们卷’Due Run. 我记得有一回黄大神带了胜跑群的一路神仙们席卷了不少奖牌🏅😂 Btw, I signed up this year’s Olivette Turkey Trot. I probably ran my 1st Olivette Turkey Trot 5K in year 2018. I signed up in year 2017 but I chickened out at the last minute. I

Reading Time: 7 minutes 中文翻译（主要是谷歌翻译的，我做了一点修改）在这里。 This is probably the 3rd time we stayed in a hospital in America – if we count the time we spent in the Mercy for our 2 babies delivery (baby number 1 and number 2). Last week in my blog I talked about our little baby got sick. As she didn’t get better, we

Reading Time: 2 minutes Our 10 year old got sick on the 1st day of Labor Day weekend – 8/31 Saturday. She has violin private lesson and we had to do it over the Zoom. Initially we didn’t think too much of it, but on Monday 9/2, as we didn’t see her getting any better we decided to go

Reading Time: 2 minutes This probably should be the series 2 of Ladue high school, we are coming, series I is here and I wrote it about 9 months ago. Now it’s real – which means, every morning, I have to be patient about the traffic on Warson road. And I am very proud to announce: so far I
