What a day for a daydream
What a day for a daydreamin' boy
And I’m lost in a daydream
Dreamin ‘bout my bundle of joy
And even if time ain’t really on my side
It’s one of those days for takin' a walk outside
I’m blowin’ the day to take a walk in the sun
And fall on my face on somebody's new mowed lawn

Good morning, everyone! Great huge mug of East India Company's "English Breakfast" tea, a teppanade made with Kalamata olives, spread on home made tortillas (Yippee! I'm using up stuff from the shelves!) and then it's back to the boxes. Today is the day to start removing decorations from the walls. I've been holding off to try to keep the place looking a bit nicer for the prospective buyers, but time's getting short....

PacSafe makes a large variety of high quality security travel items. And while nothing will stop a determined thief, these things will certainly give them good reason to pick a different target. I use the
steel mesh pack cover on my larger camera bags, with the security cable fastening the bags to immovable objects. My wallet has anti-RFID Scanner linings, as does my passport cover. My wife likes the
anti-slash fanny pack as it's small and light weight. And there is nothing quite as effective as their
'Travel Safe' when in areas where you need to leave things (passport, cash, etc.) with the Front Desk at guest houses in Third World countries. Sure beats the envelop they give you to put your stuff in...

Escrima, kuntaousilat, kali... all great for that. There is always something around that can work. Combine 25 years of teaching Kung-fu, 20 years of competitive fencing, a dash of Aikido, and a bit of Escrima, and a whole ration of street, and the cane works wonders for me and I can even carry it onto the plane. Being made of rattan, it's so light weight no one ever considers that it could be a weapon. It used to be that way for the Kubotan too, but those days are long gone.
More tea... and more tape and bubble wrap....
