  • Ugly Juggling Shower Slow Practice is Still Progress

    Ugly Juggling Shower Slow Practice is Still Progress

    I’m still practicing the shower juggling pattern. I’ve got an ugly presentation with claw-grabbing, flattening the half shower fake jobs, and uneven throw spacing. But I’m not quitting yet. I’m trying to follow the JuggleMan’s example. I didn’t get a breakthrough until yesterday when I tried my black and gold Hawkeye juggling balls. I guess…

  • Sena Wants AI Dislodged

    Sena Wants AI Dislodged

    Well, the last couple of days have been entertaining with the Artificial Intelligence (AI) bots, at least for a while, to me. However, my wife, Sena wants AI dislodged. I thought I disabled it, but it just keeps popping up. Maybe the only way to protect ourselves from AI is with tin foil hats. On…

  • Update to Chat with Bard

    Update to Chat with Bard

    My recent chat with Google Bard, about which I posted on April 11, 2023, contained an error by Bard on all those strikes by physicians. Today I asked some follow-up questions: How many physician strikes have occurred in the United States? “There have been a few physician strikes in the United States, but they are…

  • How’s It Hanging, Bard?

    How’s It Hanging, Bard?

    I read the experiences of Dr. Ron Pies and Dr. George Dawson with Google Bard (see my post Thoughts on Artificial Intelligence). So I had my own conversation with Google Bard yesterday. Hi, Bard; how’s it hanging? “I am doing well, thank you for asking! I am excited to be able to help people with…

  • How Are Water Heaters and Jugglers Alike?

    How Are Water Heaters and Jugglers Alike?

    Let’s start off with a riddle I think I made up. I can’t find it anywhere on the web: How are water heaters and jugglers alike? The answer is at the end of this post. I’m still practicing the shower juggling pattern. Progress is slow. I found a YouTube channel called YouJuggle. It’s this guy…

  • Thoughts on Artificial Intelligence

    Thoughts on Artificial Intelligence

    Sena and I just read Dr. Ron Pies fascinating essay describing his interaction with Google Bard Artificial Intelligence (AI). As usual, this made me think of several movies with AI as a central theme. There are several: I, Robot (I wrote a post about this a couple of years ago), Blade Runner, The Matrix, 2001:…

  • Another Deer Hassles the Tabby

    Another Deer Hassles the Tabby

    Yesterday, we saw another episode of a whitetail deer hassling the blond and white tabby who was just minding its own business hunting for mice. The deer was definitely not pleased and tried to scare the cat off. They don’t get along, probably because deer and cats are natural enemies. You got to hand it…

    The Other Feral Tabby Catches Lunch

    This is the companion to yesterday’s post about the gray Feral Tabby and its encounter with the whitetail deer. This cat is orange and white and it might be a litter mate to the gray one, just a guess. It does a great job of hunting for mice. And it caught one!

  • Juggling My Birthday Glow Balls

    Juggling My Birthday Glow Balls

    Hey, it’s my birthday and it turns out the juggling glow balls are my early gift. Sena decorated my cake, using cookie icing that sort of spread out. You got to love the birthday card she got for me. “Selective Listening Ensures the Survival of Man.” Or at least this man. Just for the occasion…

  • Eyes of a Child

    Eyes of a Child

    Sena wonders if I’m ever going to use Patsy Cline’s tune “If I Could See the World (Through the Eyes of a Child) in a blog post. She also brought home a potted plant she bought, an Easter Lily, ahead of Easter Sunday on April 9th next week. I thought of a couple of things,…
