Finally DVNP!! ๐ One of my long wish-list is finally cleared. DVNP has always been in the toplist with lots of interesting points – crazy summer weather/temperature, name of “Death” :), scene of Star Wars, etc…
First two spots (after the National Park sign :)) – Ubehebe Crater & Mesquite Sand Dune
Smokes from Wildfire must have thought bypassing three Cascadia brothers (Vancouver-Seattle-Portland) in Summer is a pity thing – so it came to us especially along with another record level heat..
However, :), I am prepared at this year with Air Purifier from Winix 5500-2 (Had known this company’s product thanks to their proven performance with world-class Seoul air pollution) which I purchased from a deal during last Amazon Prime Day.. ๐
(Kept in original box till yesterday, but felt even some happiness to unbox for a good use of it… :D)
Air conditioner, Air purifier, and smoky air outside.. perfect condition for book reading weekend..
Now it is rental car – as rental car companies sold their inventory to used car market which has been appreciating values & limited new car inventory with production backlog and semiconductor shortage. Ha….now let me think what the next one will be..
There was a funny event or happening primarily in Seoul – a well-known media published that Hyundai Motor is about to close a partnership deal with Apple on electric vehicle. At the end HMC declined that fact later, and Apple declined and even insisted it will not include HMC on any further consideration of partnership, and during this time, HMC’s stock danced up and down…
Looks like another example of business’ nuances/practice/culture difference clashing… my opinion on this – this accident is kind of ‘not best but okay or can happen’ from Korean hat, while it is more serious/should never happen in US hat.. ๐
Everybody is talking about this stock or company – feels like recent frenzies in Korean Stock Exchange got amplified at US with hedge funds vs community with this stock.
Watching this as a person who majored business twice, regularly watching what is happening in KSE, and working in game industry, makes me have multiple thoughts and personal memories/histories crossed over.
I think the true winners of this run is any GameStop employee who holds lots of shares, and stock brokerage who gets any fees if any… as old Korean saying the billiard shop owner wins the billiard game. ๐
So the county government knows I speak Korean but maybe have wrong age profile? ๐ – Says Tips for Elder People in King County.. or maybe I am old enough? ๐ฆ
Not a surprise that this is a critical news in Hawaii, but I came to this news after wondering why I couldn’t find SPAM at Costco and Walmart in last few visits. Found reasonable package at Amazon and ordered thru it..
At the end – this is all because of stupxx pandemic (now I hate this more and more….this had enough of us..) and Amazon continues to be the winner ๐
