Wherefore thou art ? I've been doing other things, being busy, being lazy, being asocial. Talking to people in person, even. Talking to no one and sorting through my stuff to organize it. Or just go through it, even, and not leaving it any more organized than before. And I had forgotten about this little... Continue Reading →
What do you do for the holidays when you want to go somewhere (or even just Out) and share the joy, but you really just shouldn't? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rlqkytz0CzQ&t=22s After setting up the Christmas lights, I took my extra time and had some fun with the Samsung Gear 360 (2017) camera, and spent a little learning time*...

They use AI to help you quickly create social videos out of existing articles, or from scratch if you so desire. At least that's the promise. Premise?

Yeah, I said it. Oh, must not be a morning person... well, duh! Maybe I'm a morning person on the wrong side of the planet? How about that? Maybe I'm a night person who just realized that morning people slept in from yesterday afternoon. It would certainly explain why they are so peppy and excited... Continue Reading →
I have always been a pretty good speller, and I have a love for words. No surprise for someone with a blog.
