We wish to acknowledge the consent of the Tylers to reproduce their music, recorded live via iPhone at Harpeth Presbyterian Church...A new high in Low Jill Biden Comments on Covenant Matters. I guess she forgot her visit to Nashville to lead “Gay Pride” Day celebrations..I know it was meant to be comforting, but the wife of the President needs to “back off”….Her recent remarks about Nashville’s Covenant Massacre are totally out of line…It’s just like Joe Biden’s confusion regarding that derailment in East Palestine (OH). The president’s visit was too little way too late, and now we have Mrs Biden lamenting an event of gender rage and confusion…

There is no such thing as “leftover” champagne you can’t put it back in the bottle and even if you could you can’t re-cork it. According to the so-called “World Court” headquartered in The Hague, only wine produced in the Champagne region of France can be labeled “champagne…” That’s why my favorites, Piper Sonoma (Curvee) and Mumms Napa (Blanc Noir) show on their labels, They are marvelous products at sensible prices. Made by French Vinters of Champagne in California…If you are served champagne from a plastic corked bottle, you deserve to be scammed…

Banjo Music courtesy of Banjo HangOut, William Tell overture It kind of reminds me of a quote from Sherlock Holmes…”I am not retained by Scotland Yard to supply their deficiencies…”Memo to AI “weather writers” — the weather pattern known as LaNina, is an AI fraud… It doesn’t exist. It’s another fraud by low information creators…It might be good Spanish grammar, but it’s a hoax.It ranks up there with “Wuhan virus is racist…” the original AI fraud.

Piano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church.Yes, you can it’s called “transcription”. A feature of the new Apple Podcast App. Like most of our current AI-produced content, it’s flawed. Flaw number One was my fault for producing two files with similar names!Leave it to Seri to read the “raw” (wrong) file that contained a ten-second warmup. For those of you new to podcast production even in this day & age of so-called HD recording. It takes a few seconds for voice memos to produce premium content. HD recording is one of those numerous iPhone misnomers like “working in the cloud”.  HD is a digital file and as such it’s compressed or compact.

In Bingo the game ends when someone wins, unlike his message of “everybody is guaranteed a win…”. That is except for the minority of us (48%)  who do the work of the nation and pay our taxes.

Closing by Banjo HangOut William Tell Overture....FYI/while I was preparing to write this piece I glanced at Music on my iPhone — gone is the 90 Days Free after that $9.99 — Now it’s one month free and $10.99 monthly…Of course with Music, there’s no going back, once you sign up there’s no UNDO allowed. It’s a lifetime subscription…No wonder Apple makes so much money….

Music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church Just as I'm all for Niki Haley remaining the race every real race needs two contenders I do think it's revealing at how low we have sunk as a nation for anyone to argue against “fairness”, Our problem remains our political climate of revenge and retribution aided and abetted by WOKE theology attack on our seminal document. Let's just for a moment play this card “Lets suppose based on his public performance the secretary of state of Tennessee “declares President Biden not fit to run for re-election!After all we have the words of the special counsel “A well-meaning but diminished capacity adult….”.with his finger on the nuclear trigger Editors NoteHow would you feel then? "Liberty may be endangered by the abuse of liberty, but also by the abuse of power."

It was Woodrow Wilson commenting on the Birth of A Nation a film “It's like writing history with lightning….” But it wasn't history it was Drama! Circa 1917 Sure Generative AI is great as long as you don't mind that Accuracy is sacrificed on its Altar

A Tsunami always sends a warning, but we may not recognize it. If you ever see the “ocean” suddenly recede, as if the tide has gone out — turn around and run toward the high ground — you have between three & thirty minutes depending on how far the ocean recedes.

It wasn’t a storm that just tripped transformers, all that debris had to be cleared.

Problema most of his designs were unworkable. For example, he envisioned man-powered flight using a “rowing machine”…. Man-powered flight had to wait for the invention of the bicycle and the vinyl envelope. Or a parachute with a wooden canopy - another nonstarter.So it is with Elon Musk's transportation ideas, such as a series of narrow tunnels under LA, kind of like that LooneyTunes one-way tunnel proposed by our own Mayor Megan Berry. He is still working on Space Ship One a one-way trip to Mars.

Another funny story. TikTok is all about metadata TikTok could care less if your smartphone has 1000 apps or one app.MetaData is all that stuff you can’t hide. If you could hide it — the phone wouldn’t work at all.Yes, it’s possible to engage a VPN or an email proxy, but you can’t do it from a single app phone.  By the way, there is no such thing as a single app phone because it wouldn’t do anything! To engage TikTok would require an internet connection, such as Safari, Chrome, or Firefox.If we are talking about an iPhone, it comes “pre-loaded” with prototypical apps, called Widgets, which must be deleted from the device.

Sorry, Charlie StarKist wants tuna which tastes good, not tuna with good taste.Balloons are not steerable because they lack “power”. That’s a Zeppelin or a blimp, sometimes called an airship.In terms of “steering” balloons may ascend or descend — they are entirely at the mercy of the wind current.P.S. It was the Japanese during WW-II who discovered that phenomenon which we call The Jet Stream. They launch paper balloons to float to the United States in hopes of igniting forest fires in the Pacific Northwest.As to “shooting it down”, this would be extraordinarily difficult, because of the amorphous mass of any balloon-like object. The higher a balloon goes — the larger it gets. The “gondola” or basket suspended beneath would certainly fall to earth and would not burn up as a space capsule would. That the Chinese balloon made it to the Dakotas is a tribute to their superior technology vs the Japanese.
