"The Truth About Love..."


I've found out that falling in love doesn't have anything to do with time. It can take a year or an instant. It happens when it's ready to happen.

- Nora Roberts



"Sunday Afternoon At The Movies..."


I'm watching:



I was about 20 years old the first time I saw this. I'd recorded it off the air from CBET-TV Windsor, Ontario, Canada using my brand new VCR. I replayed Donald's shower scene so many times that the tape got so worn that in the end all you could see was snow*. Interestingly, although I love the 1970 film, I have absolutely no interest in seeing the 2020 Netflix remake.


* Also known as static or white noise, refers to the random pattern of flickering dots and accompanying hissing sound that appears on an analog TV screen when it's not receiving a strong or clear signal.



"Sometimes In Advertising..."



From an email this morning

Of course I'm sure they didn't send this to all their customers... The data brokers will have given them the 411 about our household a long time ago. Still, with most of corporate America bending the knee to Trump, it was a welcome surprise to see.



"Just For Fun..."


For those who've never been in the military and wondered what soldiers do when they're not warfighting...


I remember being on a naval gun cleaning crew and we 
had just as much fun as these guys!



"Selfie Love..."

     

"Selfie Love" - those beautiful, grainy, out-of-focus self-pics that capture the truth of true love..."



"I Am Always Remembering..."


Yep, I am this many years old... 

I distinctly recall milk home delivery from our local dairy, "Twin Pines." I remember how my sister and I would race down the stairs first thing after waking up to be one who got to open the milk chute* and discover the frosty cold glass bottles of milk and sometimes a tub of fresh cottage cheese too if our mother was dieting.



I am always remembering...


*For the younger readers of this, a milk chute, or provisions cabinet is an insulated box built into the wall of many mid-century homes. It has a door outside the home accessible to the milkman and a door inside for the homemaker to retrieve the goods delivered fresh to her home that morning. Now you know what that strange little door located near the kitchen on the outside of many homes was for. We had home delivered milk until sometime in the early 1970s, afterwards we bought our milk from the A&P (a story for another time).



"We're Living In The Age Of The Machines..."


When AI Goes To Work
All images are AI generated


The ability of AI to render almost any fantasy we can describe is an incredible wonder and a worry of our modern times. 
We are living in the age of the machines...









Can you guess what happened next...?
