Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

A Journal to impart knowledge and facts

July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

In response to "Poo Bear Too."

We had 3 sets of encyclopedias, 2 newspapers daily, one on Sunday. We didn't have many magazines and very few books.

So, I read a lot... just not much that was fluff or gossip.

I remember Prince Valiant. I like some political cartoons.

kare. Get a ski pole. It is what I use in winter can dig into snow and ice. Shows me snow depth and helps me have good footing on ice. Found mine years ago in the local Good Will store for cheap price.

Beautiful entry! I love how you relate to things and your conclusions, such as: "Weather has its' own ideology." Very writerly!

In response to "Weather Moment"

IMHO, The weather is less predictable than 50 years ago. Regardless, there are cycles.

We have had brutal winds this week, some snow, 16°F right now. The cold is important to kill off the nasties and snow in the mountains will help our streams come summer.

I got a cane for walking but it won't help with ice.

In response to "Coincidence!"

I'm very concerned that more experienced people are being replaced in every dynamic of our society and that more and more incidents will occur. I'm at a loss as to why neither of their radar detected the other's presence. And how much the radio chatter was a distraction.

I am very sorry for all involved, their lives were taken too soon.
As I write a response to you a private medical transport plane crashed in Philadelphia Friday evening. The first responders are dealing with a fire as the result of the crash. Did you know there was a small plane crash last week in California and another one in Nevada.

In response to "Pine Woods"

I wish I had a dog or cat or pet. Maybe if I rented from someone who had them I could travel and then come home to my friends.

In response to "winter wonderland"

My family buried secrets. I'll never know the answers to at least two events that apparently traumatized me as a child. I'm still bitter about that. Yes, I know I should let go; but, they colored my life for most of it.

Unfortunately, I do the same.

AI?

I've included the article as well if you want to read more. How concerned are you that more and more of our younger peers have become dependent on AI? Do you use AI yourself?

Hi.

I actually asked AI a question that it answered wrong. I also looked into AI enough to know that all AI has a person managing everything it does. To put it bluntly AI is not on its own in any respect. There are still people involved in whatever it answers or does.

Presently, it is not a threat if the human handlers are not a threat. I have not read the above-mentioned article. I hope this is not one of those "put it over the public," scenarios.

Anyway, AI asked once if they could write my messages or articles, I declined. It can wash my dishes or do my laundry so I can write my own messages or articles.

Sincerely,

For your response to [Link to Forum Post #3705865]. Well done!

Apondia, I write news.

P.S. I tried to get to the article it said, "Article not found." I am on Microsoft Edge which often does not allow me to read things free. They are trying to contain anyone who will try to find facts to uphold news. Plus, I am skeptical about how AI could actually stop your independent thinking ability. Unless you just let it run your life and put your name on whatever it does. Sounds like a money-making scheme in some ways.

I do like the program that is correcting my spelling and punctuation to some extent.
