During this pandemic, we need all the “feel good” experiences we can arrange. Sorta’ by accident, I happened to see the movie “Spare Parts” recently; I am happy to report this is a terrific (and accurate) movie based on a real-life event. It’s guaranteed to make you feel better after viewing it.
It’s the story of four high school students who, by chance, enter in a national science project competition, sponsored by the University of California, Santa Barbara. The students are unlikely participants, and their actual project turns out to be something that looks like (and was) made in their classroom.
If you’ve ever wanted to watch a movie that actually made you feel better at the end, this is the one for you. In the final scenes, even if you think you know the outcome, you’ll be cheering like mad for the student team.
I forgot all about the pandemic for a brief yet welcome period.

I’m a dreamer at heart, proudly born and raised in San Francisco—a city that covers just 49 square miles but was heaven on earth for me. Every corner of The City (as we natives affectionately call it) has been a part of my life. No area ever felt too distant. With wide eyes and an open heart, I’ve always welcomed the world around me. I find joy in creativity, wonder, and discovering new possibilities—whether that’s through international work adventures or dreaming up the next exciting idea. Even though San Francisco was my hometown, my passport has taken me to many amazing places and introduced me to wonderful people, shaping me in countless ways. I carry pieces of these experiences and friendships with me wherever I go. Above all, I treasure my family, friends, and those small, meaningful moments that keep my spirit alive and thriving. I never want my curiosity to fade away.
