  • From Doyne Mraz on Crazy English

    I love our complicated language, especially now my brain ain’t working well. I love the constant iterations, complications, devilish spelling. It all helps, and when I have difficulty, I cherish the root derivations.

  • From Cheryl Goldman on A Poetic Invitation

    Milt, I like your poem. It was so good that I could see it and feel it. It made me think of some of Willa Cather whose stories I love.

  • From Cheerie Howse on DIRECTV- What is it and why do we want it?

    Thank you, Joni. I put the youtube on with closed captions and was able to understand what the speaker was saying. I’m a TV idiot so my biggest issue will just be learning how to use the remote and hopefully get what I want to watch. I’m confident that between all the help setting up and the FAQ’s I will master it eventually. Your explanation was very helpful. Cheerie

  • From Len Flaherty on A Poetic Invitation

    Thank you, Milt! This article goes straight to the point of poetry. I am unschooled in this art form, generally avoiding it, but your article opened my eyes a bit – well done! Glad you folks moved to the Manor.

    How will we connect with certain subscriber channels, such as HBO?

  • From Doyne Mraz on DIRECTV- What is it and why do we want it?

    So Miss Joni, I watched the man with terrible diction on the site you’re recommended to learn about DirectTV. I’m more confused now than ever. First, we need a person who speaks clearly. Second, we need that person to explain the vocabulary he is using. Third, we need him to show us dummies just how things work, and he needs to do that slowly. Truly, I am lost. Felicitations, Doyne

  • From Salome Sato on Singles:  Staying Alive

    When I moved here 10 yrs ago, there were friends on my 7th floor who would call each other every morning. A phone tree would also work IF all involved would REMEMBER TO CALL the next person. We all need to help one another….
    Aloha,

  • From SuzanaGal on Singles:  Staying Alive

    Joni, thank you for finding answers to questions shared by many people living here. I just wonder if what you call “ a phone visit” costs really $11.50. Seems quite expensive for a reminder to take your meds. Just one reminder a day would be $350 per month. If you must take medication several times a day, the price would increase dramatically.
    Perhaps another solution, just as a checkup, would be a phone tree among friends or neighbors. Assuming that every one remembers to call!

    I was so surprised when I read the first article. I agreed with it. I enjoy hearing what others say about something especially if they hit on something I agree with. And now the answer to why the banners are gone. Thank you so much for the rabbits. I have wondered about the Quail being our logo since the shrubs under which they had nests were removed and I never see a Quail.

Malama Way has 4 cottages,three solo women,one couple (no contact 10 years) 1501-4; below them1505-1510 Village Center Drive has three elderly widows,one couple (he’s the champion golfer). Two of our husbands were the coordinators when able, both died in 2023 at 93, Damon Simpson & Jim Stocker. We’ve had not contact fro, anybody.

    What a delightful story, Eleanor. It reminded me of the hot summer days in So. California when my sister and I ran bare footed through our neighborhood, then home for a lunch my grandmother prepared – French toast with melted butter and a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
