Starbucks in the Airport

The new international terminal at Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, Texas is very nice and seems to be more efficient than the previous set up. Traffic flows smoothly and there is a Starbucks coffee shop at which families can sit and refresh while waiting for departure times. Our daughter who lives in Singapore and travels all over the world really likes the new facility.

How Do They Know?

I wonder sometimes how the internet advertisers determine their marketing programs. I know that my age is a public record so I understand when I get emails offering age related products or services. But I wonder how they know that I need to loose weight. I do not believe I have ever announced that fact. But I get many offers for Anoretix and other such products!

Not For Me!

Having been overweight for a long time, I have looked into several diet supplements to see if there is any way I can get some of the weight off a bit faster than with just limiting calories and increasing exercise. I have checked on the Phentermine 37.5 mg pills that are supposed to be one of the most effective on the market. Unfortunately, with my blood pressure situation, I am not eligible to use the product.

Allergies & Asthma

Our eight year old grandson that lives with us has developed asthma, which seems to be triggered in the seasons when pollens are high. We have taken several steps to help him. He has seen a doctor, who made a prescription for him. But we have also installed special filters in the air conditioning system. We have been advised to look into the Miele vacuums that are designed to assist those with allergies!

Hard to Buy For

My wife is pretty hard to by special gifts because she is not one who likes diamond rings or fancy clothes or new gadgets. She is happier with some practical and useful item. She does not want to go to a spa or some expensive resort. She does like to travel, so sometimes we celebrate anniversaries or holidays visiting friends of seeing some place of interest. She is hard to buy for, but easy to please.

Things from Home

I am leaving for Dominica on Monday, part of a team that is going down to assist our missionary in planting a congregation in a new village on the island. I asked him a couple of days ago if there is anything he wants me to bring him. I thought he might want picante sauce, or chili or some other taste from home he cannot find there. But he told me all he wants is some extra computer memory. No problem, it is easy to get and takes up no room in the luggage!
