This Tai-Chi "walking program" is not working for me. There's just not enough distance between my desk and the refrigerator! 🙄

Hi, I'm Randy. I'm an autodidact, which makes it difficult to run a YouTube channel with so many rabbit holes to get out of, not to mention sunsets and other activities. But I'm still trying. If you're new to the channel, you might like the following. We appreciate all of our Subscribers and thanks for sticking around! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc58n...

Thanks to all our viewers for your patience during Super Typhoon Sinlaku. Guam was spared from any major damage, and we are fortunate to be back on Island Power after a 49hr, 14min disruption in service. We never lost phone service, but without a computer I'm rather powerless. I did mage to compose two short videos before the storm and a few updates via mobile data to the Tropic Shade fb page, so if you have been following us there, we appreciate you. I will attempt sharing some Sinlaku afttershots in the coming days, so stay tuned. Right now, our priority is to get the ref restocked... and the beer cold again! Sometimes you have to pay the piper for living in paradise.

Here We Go Guam - First Storm of 2026! TROPICAL STORM SINLAKU has formed in the Western Pacific and forecast to pass dangerously close to Guam as a Category 4-5 monster late this weekend. Additionally, could this large circulation aid in the development of the strong El Niño in the Pacific? 🤔 If you're in the path of this storm, prepare now!

In just over a week's time, petrol (regular) prices have increased by over 75% in the Philippines. Thank you Mr. Trump!

I feel like a rooster who made it through a tri-fecta... with still a few rounds to go. While we have been busy moving ourselves to a new condo, I managed to put up a couple new blog posts on the website, but for the most part, the video computer desk has been disassembled for the move and is still in shambles. The Mrs. says the kitchen and bathroom assembly comes first! But I will be back in operation soon. Hang in there... or watch some older videos you haven't seen! 😎
