Due to the incident of 2022, Karl has been an archenemy of my family. So, Fleet Week returned to San Francisco this year, and I wished Karl had spared some generosity to us all. The result was the success of half. The weather was perfect for Friday and Saturday, but

I couldn't follow up on recent events for the time being due to busy days. I have to update several of my events backlogged, and I'm urged to address my first NFL game visit this year (Oct. 1st, vs Cardinals) while we are still in the

Last week, I visited NYC for Programmatic IO 2023. It was my third time at the conference and my second time in NYC. The conference was so-so, but I learned that people were now talking and having aligned terminology about CTV (Connected TV) ads - the domain I'm

Buying a new iPhone on day one was my ritual; no, it has been a rather religious duty. I had bought a new iPhone every year since 2009 (3GS), but even to me, 'every year' was getting too challenging as the gadget went into the luxury domain. So,

We punched another National Park during the last Labor Day long weekend: Redwood National and States Parks. I hadn't been up to it because it was a little far (more than 6 6-hour drive), and I was not sure what the difference would be to other good California

Porco Rosso (紅の豚) is my favorite movie by Director Hayao Miyazaki. It was a movie from 1992, and I might have watched it more than 20 times. I even translated the script of the movie into Korean and ran it at a small cinematheque in 1994 (when I was a

My first visit to Levi's Stadium this year was not a 49ers game but a music concert: Karol G - Mañana Será Bonito (Tomorrow will be good) Tour. My wife won a lottery in her office for the suite seats; yes, two suite seats, and it was my

My team recently accomplished a great feat, and we could be fortunate enough to enjoy the achievement: a summit at Los Cabos. The only trivial problem of mine was that it was right after my Tokyo visit. I planned my Seoul visit, which included a short 4-day trip to Tokyo)
