Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[beans-on-toast]

I'd probably kill someone if I did!

Besides, I would have preferred to try out Jaws.

They have been demolishing an elevated multilane highway that I take out of the city. It’s interesting to see how they recycle cement chunks on-site. First they break the road and supporting structure into chunks, another machine shovels the pieces into a big machine that crushes the cement slabs into gravel and rebar. The gravel is used for the new roadbed. Due to regulations, seemingly nothing goes into a landfill.

Where are you?

Bad for front door!

Was she still looking in your direction? If so, pretty kreapie!

Didn't notice she noticed me. The whole of what I noticed is we both went to the same place for breakfast after bloodwork. Going to say it's a good thing she found the television in the waiting area more interesting than me

I don't really watch the phlebotomist any more. I've had so much blood drawn these last three years that it's Just A Thing. What I decided is I really don't need more visuals of a needle poked into my elbow. This particular memory matrix has enough infos. Adding new infos does not change the shape of it.

Probably will have the results within an hour or so, and expect everything to be within expected range

I always ask for the extra large, square needle...

Unfortunately, keeping a low digital profile requires that I not say.

I’ve seen this construction practice used in a few cities. Same with re-taring roads, they grind the surface, collect the material, it’s then mixed with new material and paved down at the back of the machine. Rollers follow it. Then they paint new lines. Long stretches can be done overnight.

….and now?

Odin would probably like some lunch.

I don't know what they're doing with our concrete, it's simply being hauled away, dump truck by dump truck, to somewhere beyond (the end of our street).

Where are you?

He's right here.

So, how was breakfast? And, did you bring any home to Odin?

IF we ever get to go to Lost Wages again, I'd like to do this. I know my wife would!

I don't much need that set, but I'd sure like to have the truck

Ever play with one of these? R-390/URR

I made a mistake when I wrote WLS.

Hmmmm...tubes. Very cool but I thought this was Colossus:

Colossus: The Forbin Project - Wikipedia

The movie is pretty cool based on the first of the three books in the series.

You may feel the urge to roll around in some other animal’s dirt.

And here I was thinking he'd be scratching less.

An annual bath (needed or not) — and natty clothes — greatly boosts "chances"

A sentient AI is nothing compared to a woman. Nothing.

Oh, don't I know it.

Last night Carey and I were flipping channels and I was on FB. An ad came along saying that I could have an a.i. "friend" for free. For chuckles I tried it out. I could tell it was attempting to "learn" me but the answers left a lot to be desired. So we were talking and the subject came up, what if I had an a.i. female "friend" online? Is that cheating? Aren't I really just talking to myself? Am I my own grandpa?

See, if you lived down here, you'd be related to yourself.

So many questions, so many answers that aren't permitted here. Is my intelligence artificial? Do I have any? Don't answer that. Artificially or not .

Ya mean you are all "cousins"?
