I STARTED USING the Traveler's Notebook on February 9, 2023 after watching at least five hours of YouTube videos created by people who shared their power tips with their notebooks. I still have a sizeable collection of hardback Moleskines that will anchor an important collection in 2025.

By Bernie Goldbach in Ireland. C-141A on the ramp.
WITH PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN'S advance team flying overhead, my memories scrolled back to the 1980s when I flew several DV1 missions in support of POTUS. A Distinguished Visitor One Mission normally comes with additional screening of the aircrew and a well-maintained aircraft.

by Bernie Goldbach talking to Surface Book in Clonmel
YESTERDAY a visitor from the Philippines landed on my website insideview.ie to read how my family wrote and saved ideas. I started thinking that I no longer have to actually write anything. I can just talk about things and my blog will write itself.
I can talk to my Surface Books' screen and it will create text from speech. This has digitally changed the way I work.

I GOT A WALNUT Writer's Box as a combination Christmas Birthday present and now am mesmerised by the thought that I have a tool that my Irish ancestors might have used as they integrated into America in the late 1800s.
The box is modeled after one used by Thomas Jefferson but mine is made of walnut instead of mahogany.
And Jefferson's was crafted in Philadelphia in the 1770s while mine was made in Turkey in 2022.

by Bernie Goldbach while on a Zoom Call in Clonmel.
I REVERTED TO FORM and started blogging during the four hours I spent on a Zoom call with 113 others who expressed an interested in learning more about how to successfully apply for research funding under RUN-EU. I saved my rough notes as part of this blog post (see link below) because I think it's important to establish open and distributed nodes of communications between researchers who are scattered throughout the EU.

I REMEMBER the day when I motored along with a whip antenna.

WE PLAN to deal with a flat tyre every two weeks. What can I do to figure out where the nails are coming from?

I NEVER EXPECTED to experience serenity with a fish tank but something about the slow and plodding Mexican walking fish in our kitchen takes me to a quiet place. I'm enthralled by our two Axolotls.
