Reblog of Post “Maybe I Should Be More Optimistic About Humans”
This is a reblog regarding my thoughts on July 13, 2023 about humans and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Marvin the Paranoid Android had a brain the size of a planet. I have a brain the size of a chickpea. I point out this comparison in the post. I still have doubts about how smart AI really…

Reblog of Extraterrestrial Grade Kewpie Mayo Corn Dish!
Here’s a tasty reblog of my post from July 12, 2023, “Extraterrestrial Grade Kewpie Mayo Corn Dish.” This one got a few likes for obvious reasons—it’s tasty and easy to make. I could even do it, if I had a brain transplant. I guess I’m not going to get any new jar of Miracle Whip.…

I Get a 28 Point Hand in Cribbage and Still Lose!
Sena and I played cribbage today and I just want to point out that I got a 28-hand. I would have gotten a 29-hand if my ten of spades card had been the nob Jack, which is the Jack of the same suit as the cut card, worth one point. The odds of getting a…

Look On Our Wonders of America
Sena and I have been talking lately about how we would reimagine the Mt. Rushmore monument in South Dakota. We’ve never gone to South Dakota to see it. We discussed supplanting the current former U.S. Presidents with various other leaders like Helen Keller, Dr. Jonas Salk, Mahatma Ghandi. We had trouble coming up with a…

Hawk Morning Exercises
We saw the Red-tail hawk messing with our rake out in the backyard garden. It looked like it was either exercising or trying to fly off with it—to do what was a mystery. It also attacked our property corner marker, which is just a wooden stick. Chuck Norris could kill two sticks with one hawk.…
