Happy "I want my tequila, NOW!!" day! 

 

Ahhh... the Jose Quervo morning blend! 

 

 

Screw the salt, just give me a straw.

Gone in ...nine seconds.

I enjoy the videos on the YouTube channel, SAMTIME; about the latest round of slop to come out of the tech companies, and he maintains a strong bent against AI.

Fun video; sharp wit.  The perfect viewing for a Monday afternoon.  ...and in reality... completely TRUE!!!  A few videos down on my page; confirmation!  

Nine seconds. An entire corporate database AND the backup deleted.  Anthropic's response "We're just going to charge more for companies to use the system".  

SMH.  Glad to be on this side of this garbage.  I can only imagine having to work x-number more years for a company jonesing over wanting to go AI.

May I interrupt...

Just a note to my friends and fellow bloggers...

1. It's early May
2. This is Southern New England.
3. I have about... 4 hours... before everything goes from accessible and manageable to overgrown. 

Current project: Building a greenhouse.  

We had an old garden shed in the back BACK corner of the yard.  That shed had a 6x11 cement patio in front of it.  Well, that shed is long gone, but the patio remains.  Found a 6 x 10 greenhouse kit (arrived yesterday).  Over the weekend, I installed a raised foundation for it, and dug a pit that will eventually enable me to run PEX from the garage to have a working faucet at the structure. 

As I mentioned, I have short window to get the greenhouse assembled before the path become overgrown with seasonal shrubs (lilacs, Russian Quince, etc.) that are just beginning to bud out. 

I may not be readily responding to comments or spending time visiting with other blog sites for other than a cursory scan.  Once dawn breaks, I am in work mode.  

Next May projects on the list:

• Build a 2' x 15' raised planter behind the wood shed.
• Move the large tropical plants (several large, potted orange trees, Oleander, etc.) out of the game room, including hanging the 14' dragon fruit from the Granny Smith apple tree.   
• Gutting and cleaning the breezeway (wintered a lot of plants in there). A lot of stuff will go out the the greenhouse. 
• Patching and painting the exterior 1st floor (where insulation was blown in last fall). 
• Opening up the 3-season porch. 
• Preparing for our first house guests in YEARS sometime in late June.  

Onward.
