    Yes indeed. Brings a tear. I set up a small sound system in my shop and the other day I had Dalton, Delta Blues (old gospel and southern blues) and a couple of other ai generated songsters resinating throughout. No matter what the “could be’s, would be’s or actually is at the present...

    Falling To Communism: Can We Suck It Up And Resist?

    A person doesn’t have to OD on meth to know it can kill ya. Now, so far as those of us boomers who discovered the various realities of life via experience and research, if apathy exists in even those, how then can resistance prevail? In math if we add a +1 to a -1, we get 0.

    Falling To Communism: Can We Suck It Up And Resist?

    it doesn’t take arms or great speeches or even large amounts of money to best and rule over the apathetic. There’s another thread about the Mamdani election in NY City, but to bring it to mind anyway, Mamdani won with only 39% of those eligible to vote and of that, nearly 75% were between 18...

    The Best Thing That Happened To Me Today

    It’s still early but the best thing so far is that I woke up in my right mind and fully cognizant of the fact that if I wasn’t in my right mind I probably wouldn’t know the difference anyway. To be honest though, it’s always a good start of a day when my wife comes out with a smile on her...

    Do you ever buy tools that you don't need or use?

    Ah yes, a little known, almost secret move on the part of a good senior husband in that we have a tendency to invest in futures. When we see a tool that might come in handy, we purchase it. We do so not to stress out our lovely mates but instead, we’re hoping that in the future we can manage...

    Only a few will find it

    A story I think I wrote about before on our other location: It is said that when his students and critics alike were viewing DaVinci’s rather fresh interpretative painting of “The Last Supper”, they all oohed and ah’d particularly at the way he meticulously painted the lace cloth covering the...

    Do you ever buy tools that you don't need or use?

    In a way I have to admit that I have bought some tools I haven’t used but there’s another side to that statement. I got tired of buying small tools that just somehow grew legs and walked or, like some slackards I know, are hiding from work. So, now I buy small tools that are in kits but...

    Only a few will find it

    Good question. I do recommend a good read on that and many other similar differences between the denominations but with that recommendation I also offer up a sort of caveat because the author is a hard core and well studied up Baptist who takes no prisoners so to speak. My own beliefs do not...

    What Are You Doing Today?

    So….we’re coming back from the blood letters and about half way home the GMC started to overheat. Yeah, the same truck that I just replaced the radiator for not to exclude the replacement of the thermostat, full system flush and a bunch of time bleeding the air from. That GMC ! Anyway, I...

    General Humor

    Getting old is when your spouse says, “let’s go upstairs and make love” and ya answer, “I can do one of those but not both in the same hour”.

    What Are You Doing Today?

    In about a half hour, we’re supposed to go see the vampire to get our blood drawn. The first thing that comes to mind during these occasions is whether or not they’re going to let an apprentice vampire do the job or a pro. One time I was stuck a half dozen times before the pro stepped in and...

    Invasive AI

    Anyone watch the TV series, “Persons of Interest”? I watched a couple of re-run episodes of it again a few nights ago and I realized that when the series was initially shown, it was a fanciful script about a massive computer that tracked nearly everyone on earth to the length of using even the...

    What Are You Doing Today?

    It’s 1930 hrs and I’m not doing because I already did. The main thrust of the day for me was putting together an upgrade to the vibrator plate. The one we’re replacing was just the 3 speed plate and the new one has handlebars, mp3 player speakers, and about 109 other functions. Sadly...
