W​hat Is AI and Is It As Bad As Some Say OR Can You Make It Work For YOU?

W ​hat Is AI and Is It As Bad As Some Say OR Can You Make It Work For YOU? Short answer? YES! Now for the 'rest of the story.' It's pretty long, but I will summarize when I'm done. **** AI, Artificial Intelligence, isn't exactly new. For long-term users of MS Word, you begin to see those squiggly...

It was another 'cold' night. At 4:30 this morning, it was 28 degrees here in the armpit of Florida. It has crept back to 36, but today, it will be lucky to reach 50. We keep most of the house at 60 when it gets this cold, but my writing office is at 64. The bedroom is usually at 70. Lisa likes it a... Sign in to see full entry.

Charles Schultz always had Snoopy on top of his dog house, working on his novel. The opening line was, "It was a dark and stormy night..." That sure described the storm that passed through about 4 a.m. and continues to roll through our area this morning. The lightning has ceased (which is why I am... Sign in to see full entry.

Quick Question

As I slowly revamp my work schedule (I consider writing to be my job) that allows me to get back here after allowing it to taking over my mornings, I wanted to ask if anyone would like me to begin to bring back my grief and my quotes of the day. I know several people who always read them. Thank you.... Sign in to see full entry.

We had a lot of fun last night at the restaurant. After we ate, the wife and I spent over an hour dancing. We were the first couple on the floor when the music started, and we didn't leave until it began to get a bit crowded. Would we ever have made it on the old Lawrence Welk program? Not a chance,...

Wow, I'm not sure what's happening in the city, but I'm hearing at least a dozen different sirens headed east out of town. This area has many bad car accidents for a small city. The local newspaper will report two to six car fatalities every week. Of course, I've seen how a few of these people drive... Sign in to see full entry.

An old saying goes something like this: "You can run, but you can't hide. " It got down to 29 here last night. We stayed warm, but man, it was cold! It has 'warmed up' to 49. The wife wants to go out for late lunch/early dinner tonight with my brother and his wife, Sue. I don't know when that will... Sign in to see full entry.

I didn't sleep all that well last night due to the squeaking and moaning of the pups in our bedroom. Lisa never had any children, but I had two, and I was conditioned to 'go check' on them when I heard them squeaking. They are doing very well, and so is Mama. I THINK I have an appointment in...

Happy New Year!

It's cold for Florida. It dropped to 34 last night, and we are looking for a high of 59 today. Last night, it got 'officially' dark here at ~6:05. The fireworks began to go crazy in the neighborhood at ~6:07. My big 140# dog is currently under my writing desk. The pups? The noise doesn't fathom them... Sign in to see full entry.

Good New Year's Eve morning! It is super foggy outside. To give you a little more context, the distance from our back porch to our back fence is roughly 120 feet, and I can't see the fence. FOGGY! I don't know how you will celebrate the new year, but Lisa and I will stay home and watch a few old... Sign in to see full entry.
