6 out of 7 senators were asleep.
That’s what 6-7 means.

The black oblong hole at the top of the iPhone screen is called a notch.

I call it “Third Eye Blind”.

Luggage should be AI enhanced. When they go on the carousel at the luggage claim, you can activate them to call for your attention and when it spots you, jump off the carousel and come to heel.

Viking Cruises.
Few hundred years ago, that name would terrify the coastal towns of Ireland, France, England, Spain, the Baltic countries.
Now it brings tourists.

Remember Star Trek episode “War Games” where the “M-5” AI program was installed in the Enterprise and malfunctioned, causing havoc and destruction. The latest chip from Apple is called “M5”.

I wonder how much of this was because ordinary Canadians started consciously buying Canadian and travelling in Canada.

Maybe aliens have been here, probably numerous times. Earth, best rest stop in the alpha quadrant. Pets welcome.

One thing this administration is good at is blaming others for their failures. When you’re in charge, it’s your responsibility.

Happy Thanksgiving!
In 1971, in Army basic training, we had turkey all the time. We ate turkey loaf. It was cooked in various ways, but still, turkey loaf. It looked like nefarious dog food.
To this day, I’ll eat regular turkey meat, but never turkey loaf.(I don’t know if it’s still sold)

Tonight was the annual, “oh shit it’s going to snow” annual yard clean up. The hoses live to see another year.

One great thing about the cooler weather is the fact that my Snicker bars are not soft and gooshy like in the summer. You can bite with confidence and gusto, instead of licking the bar.

Do they have AI dildos yet? Can you talk to it? Can it sense your mood and needs?
These are the probing questions that must be explored.

What were they smoking to come up with such a cockamamie peace plan for Ukraine and Russia!

This Cattle Egret’s reaction when I told it that some people on the left are buying into Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personality rehab stunt.

I lie.
You lie.
They lie.
Everyone lies.

We just can’t handle the truth.
