April 13, 2026 — I was excited to join the Creative Coalition on Artificial Intelligence for their first General Assembly (via Zoom), hosted by CCAI co-founder Daniel Kwan and CCAI interim Executive Director Ted Tremper, and project managers Orit Michiel and Jim Geduldick (along with special guests).
The word was out, calling all hot rod owners and car enthusiasts… “Bring your car, bring your friends, bring your family!” The people responded by bringing their beautiful cars, families, and dogs.
It could not be a more perfect day for the 8th Annual Las Sendas Fenders & Vendors Car Show at Mesa’s Boulder Mountain Park with an abundance of amazing cars, music, a 50/50 raffle benefiting the local PTO, face painters, cockpit tours of a Huey UH-1B helicopter, shopping from local businesses and restaurants, and more!
Today marks twenty-one incredible years of celebrating timeless beauty through powerful art on Model Mayhem. This journey has allowed countless artists, photographers, and models to showcase their talents and connect like never before.
National Beer Day is celebrated annually in the United States on April 7 to commemorate the significant 1933 passage of the Cullen-Harrison Act, which legalized the sale of 3.2% beer and wine, ultimately marking the beginning of the end of the long-standing Prohibition era. This day is not only a celebration of the newly legalized beverages but also a tribute to the rich history of brewing in America.
Arizona is Corvette Country. I don’t say that lightly, especially today, following my earlier post about the Highline Autos Cars & Coffee at High Street, which featured countless stunning examples of America’s Sports Car, poised alongside dozens of supercars and exotics. After heading back to the east side of the valley, I made my way to my favorite dining venue in Apache Junction, The Handlbar Pub & Grill, where I heard the evening before that there would be a gathering of local Corvette owners displaying their cars.
It’s been a while since I visited the Highline Autos Cars & Coffee car show at High Street in Phoenix (too long, actually). It was January of 2025 when I first discovered this epic gathering of rolling American and imported exotic supercars, boasting miles of horsepower and torque, their thunderous exhausts screaming to be let loose. Anyone who says this show is amazing is making a colossal understatement. The Highline car show is a remarkable gathering of stunning vehicles, passionate enthusiasts, and an overall atmosphere of camaraderie.
Apple Computer was founded on this day in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne in a California garage to sell Apple 1. I first heard chatter about Apple when I was exploring computers at local community meetups and gatherings (which, back then, were rare), mostly consisting of a half-dozen or so nerds, of whom, little did I know at the time, I was destined to become one.
You don’t just experience life—you eventually understand it. Three days after returning from Acapulco, I was sitting quietly in our home, when something unexpected happened…
This past Sunday hosted a celebration of fantastic music played to a great crowd of around 600 fans of local talent. The free Party In The Park concert hosted by the Cul-De-Sac Cowboys at Flat Iron Community Park in Apache Junction (AZ) was beyond excellent.
