2017 – Vancouver – Lions Gate Bridge South Pier I was riding my bicycle across the overpass in Stanley Park and stopped in the middle to admire the perfect view of Lions Gate Bridge, when I noticed a little plaque that said the following: The Guinness brewing family built the Lions Gate Bridge which opened […]
1909 painting The Worship of Mammon by Evelyn De Morgan. The word Mammon really fell from our lexicon, wonder why too, as it’s such a descriptive word and has such a long history. It’s as though the the meaning is ugly or distasteful, so it’s been cast aside. For the longest time I read and […]
I had that feeling, upon entering the second hand store, that there was something in there I needed to find. It was a glorious Saturday in March and a little framed print caught my eye, on one of the lower shelves of a tightly packed array, when I went to the trouble to bend down, […]
Flower of Life pattern I feel compelled to begin blogging again, since I have some ideas and information I’d like to share and also want to keep a few things posted here for myself. Actually, I’ve always thought the best thing about blogging was to collect information that makes me pleased that it’s been added. […]
Hong Kong to Shenzhen Epic is a word I’ve never used but is the only single word that begins to describe my China Excursion. It all started from Wan Chai in Hong Kong, with an early morning urban hike and photo shoot, to be the first to board the 7am vernacular tram ride known as […]

Do you see repeating sequences of figures all around you, whether on license plates or receipts? This year in particular, countless people around the world have reported 11:11 on a daily basis. […]
To have a music category here on Silicon Palms and not mention Bob Marley, would be a massive mistake and an error by omission, since he’s the most important musician of my life. No other artist has touched me in the same way, and I don’t feel as though my appreciation of reggae and Bob […]
I will never forget the first time I saw digital money, it was in about 1978 in West Vancouver at Park Royal Shopping center. Being old enough to drive, I remember taking my cousin’s girlfriend to her bank. I pulled up to the curb near the bank front door, beside which was the first ATM […]
Not exactly sure how I found the website “I write like” but from the first moment I was mesmerized by the system. A simple idea in theory but very complicated in application. It’s a good example of where Artificial Intelligence (AI) has found a perfect application, to rapidly analyze language patterns, then make comparison of […]
