Do you remember the American comedy-drama television series Room 222?


I remember watching this TV series and liking it as a child.


I found this furry statue on the Second Floor of my King Manor


Is this statue a portrayal of an existing character or is it an original character, or "OC".  The statue has an agreeable design.


Cutting double hinges in a food can lid prevents cut fingers


My mother would always cut open a food can to have two small hinges on the top lid.  That way, she could push down the top lid at the back, between the two hinges, and then lift up on the front.



The top lid stays on the can and does not fall into the food below.  She told me that keeping the lid on the can prevents cut fingers that could happen by handling a loose lid that been separated from the can.

The North Pointe Resource Center / Rainbow Center was closed for three weekdays, Part 3


I took this image of the King Manor elevator.  I wonder how much time, money, and effort the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Duluth staff uses to make and then post these posters.


The North Pointe Resource Center / Rainbow Center was closed for three weekdays, Part 2


I took this image of the King Manor, fifth floor bulletin board.  I talked to several King Manor residents that told me that they are annoyed, disappointed, or upset that there were no bingo games Wednesday or Friday at the North Pointe Resource Center.


The North Pointe Resource Center / Rainbow Center was closed for three weekdays, Part 1


I took this image of the King Manor, fourth floor bulletin board.  Because of a heavy snowstorm, the North Pointe Resource Center was closed from Wednesday to Friday.

Because of Climate Change, should the United States be importing Italian pasta?


Why would any Upper Midwest grocery stores purchase spaghetti from Italy, when we can grow wheat in the United States?

I saw “The Quintessential Quintuplets Movie” English Dubbed


I liked the movie better the second time I saw it.  The superb English voice cast did a good job with their roles.  They brought these characters to life in my mind.


One of the characters had to make a choice that mirrors the same decision I will soon make.  Will I pursue a certain career path because I want that job; or do I want that job because I want to have the same type of job as one of my parents had.


Because of Climate Change, should the United States be importing Indian rice?


Why ship rice from halfway around the world, when we can grow rice in the United States.



I wonder how many tons of toxic, greenhouse gases were put into our air to ship this rice to a Duluth, Minnesota store.

I saw “The Quintessential Quintuplets Movie”


This movie (Japanese with English subtitles) hit closer to my heart than I thought it would.  I loved this 10 out of 10 movie and encourage other people to see this slice of life, romantic comedy.


Larry asked me to rework the last panel of my comic.


This is the original comic page, with the original, last panel that I made for this comic.


The Tri-Towers Apartments at night


Those are still some of the tallest buildings in Duluth, Minnesota.  But, with the already happening influx of climate refugees, how many more tall buildings will be built in Duluth over the next 78 years?


Another “Love” display at Bentleyville


This Love display is now located near the Duluth Harbor Basin.


I saw this “Love Duluth” display at Bentleyville.


That is an impressive display of Love Duluth, Christmas lights.


I saw this at Bentleyville, near the Pier B Resort Hotel.


Are these two men Russians who are dancing or Ukrainians practicing to kick Vladimir Putin’s behind?  If anyone needs to be put on Santa Claus’s naughty list, it is Vladimir Putin.


This is the backside of my living room TV.


I have no idea how two separate images combined into one.


Is this art or is this trash?


Who would take a bite from an apple and other bite from a doughnut, and then abandon their food on top of the plastic trash bin?  When I saw how these two were stacked on top of each other; I knew I had to blog about this food art.  No, I did not put that food on top of the trash bin nor more it around in any way.

Someone or something lit 2 plastic garbage cans on fire


In front of the Sellwood Building, that’s located at 202 West Superior Street, Duluth, MN 55802, I found two plastic trash cans that had been set on fire.  This image was taken looking east.



This image was taken looking west.  I’ve read about a dangerous, new teen trend of burning plastic trash cans, and then inhaling the fumes.
