I totally agree. I'm concerned our educational process is actually dumbing down our children more than access to Google, Siri, Alexa, etc. Actually I think it is a good thing to be able to ask the AI assistants questions. Many times we've been having a conversation about something and and no one in the convo knows a particular fact or background about something ... my daughter goes strait to Google and brings up the 'missing' info. And frequently we'll say ... wow, I didn't know that. Well without the AI assistants help we would have continued not knowing that.
We do that all the time also. Now the education is to know how to use all the AI available.

Well did any of you do the Black Friday thing or are you waiting for Cyber Monday? I started looking at vape gear of course. Now maybe it is because I haven't really looked at stuff for quite a while but I just didn't see anything that was, what seemed to me to be a great bargain.

I am really sorry if anyone took that comment as political, I just saw it and thought what are the people in CA thinking hearing this from the Leader of the Free World. It was all gobbledy ..... Nonsense. Not sure why it blanked out the word G O O K. Must be something obscene.

If anyone has any prayers left today would be good. Ginny goes in for an MRI of her brain at 3pm. Praying it is still clear.

This was not meant to be Political, just some insight of what we are dealing with. Sorry if anyone took it that way.
Going to late Mass today, so will be sure to include her in the offering of the Eucharist!

Yesterday I survived:
Pain.
Dead computer.
Pain.
Not receiving phone calls on my phone.
pain
Kindle had a nervous breakdown and I thought it was also dead.
pain
dealing with multiple departments of m y communications provider
pain
The wasteland of broadcast tv.

I woke up feeling better. I am taking mo re meds. My kindle has recovered, but I think a newer model will suffice until I have enough dollars to resolve computer problem.
i will eventually get used to this word prediction feature. At present I hate it
Did i say I used some foul language last night?

    I love the word prediction on my tablet! perhaps because I'm a bad keyboard operator. Hope that you feel better.

    Gobbledygook is all one word.
    The last 4 letters alone is extremely offensive.

    You are also evading the Forum Censors by placing it with spaces to get it posted.
    If the Censors block something...move on.
    You know I never even thought of that and I was in the Army during Viet Nam just couln't figure it out. I get it now.

    It wasn't a matter of being offended…at least not for me. Just a reminder that anything political is not allowed. Didn't want you to get in trouble.@classwife can correct me if I'm wrong.

    I've been hoping to get an answer to a question on the Cancer Survivors Network about this brain radiation. Hoping to find someone who has had it. So far in over a week nothing. I have read both sides of it and I hope it is the right thing to do. Right now she is doing a lot of yelling at the game. It's a close one. Tied for the 4th time today.

    Well, yes we did. We had to buy a new washer/dryer. They said they would be here today between 2:30-4:30. Then called to say closer to 5:00. Well, it's 5:40... And here I had the first load of wash ready to go!

    Anyway, on the way home from Best Buy where we bought the washer/dryer we stopped in at Michael's and bought a lighted pencil Christmas tree 50% off. It'll go in the family room because our real tree is going in the living room. Stupid colonial houses have 2 rooms and they're not close together. Guess that's good for people who like to decorate, but I'd rather cook. I don't like shopping either, especially at the mall, so my gifts will mostly be bought online.

    I've got enough problems without having you guys all P_____D off at me too.

    Nobody is mad. Besides, if we see something we don't like we can just skip over it. Glad you didn't get the 40 lashes. Gotta watch out for that Classwife!

    Take your meds! If still experiencing pain beyond that, call your Dr. Pain will slow healing.
