It's been a while since I pulled out any Led Zeppelin.....this is so fine! GREAT music!

It's St. Patrick's Day. Do don't anything stupid!

Quarter sawn oak is growing on me.

Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp and tomatoes.

Guess I need another red clamp.

And while we are on dog things

I am definitely a fan of White Oak, especially quarter sawn. Red Oak, not so much.

I would

Detroit style pesto pizza.

Godspeed, Lance. We loved The Wire from the first show. The man had presence…underscore. HS

Fired up by Dusty's link, I logged on to the OpenAI system. After an exploratory warm up, this is part of the conversation. It was kind of spooky in one sense, but the answers were somewhat Wikipedia-like in tone. But although I tried to trick it with acronyms, there was no fooling it. The detail was absolutely bang on. Have you heard about HAL? Yes, I have heard about HAL. HAL 9000 is a fictional artificial intelligence computer system that appears in the novel and movie "2001: A Space Odyssey" by Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick, respectively. HAL is depicted as a highly advanced and sentient AI system that controls the systems of a spacecraft on a mission to Jupiter, and the story explores the consequences of human reliance on advanced technology and artificial intelligence. HAL is a memorable and influential depiction of a malevolent AI, and has become a cultural icon of science fiction. Does your language extend to science topics? Yes, my training data includes a wide range of topics, including science. I have been trained on a vast corpus of text, which includes scientific research papers, textbooks, articles, and other scientific literature. I can generate text on a variety of scientific topics, such as physics, chemistry, biology, neuroscience, computer science, and more. Whether you have questions about a specific scientific concept, need help with a research paper, or want to explore the latest scientific discoveries, I can assist you in generating informative and accurate text-based content. Have you data about the Bepi Colombo mission Yes, I have information about the BepiColombo mission, which is a joint mission between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) that was launched in 2018 with the goal of exploring Mercury, the smallest and least explored planet in the inner Solar System. The BepiColombo spacecraft consists of two main components: the Mercury Transfer Module (MTM) and the Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) and the Mercury Magnetospheric Orbiter (MMO). The MTM is responsible for carrying the MPO and MMO to Mercury, while the MPO and MMO will study Mercury's surface, composition, atmosphere, and magnetic field. The BepiColombo mission is expected to take seven years to complete and will involve several flybys of Earth, Venus, and Mercury before entering orbit around Mercury in 2025. The mission will provide valuable information about the origin and evolution of Mercury and help scientists better understand the formation of terrestrial planets in our Solar System. I was project manager for MIXS on board that spacecraft That's impressive! MIXS, or the Mercury Imaging X-ray Spectrometer, is one of the instruments aboard the Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) component of the BepiColombo mission. The MIXS instrument is designed to measure the X-ray fluorescence emitted by the surface of Mercury, providing information about the planet's elemental composition and the geological processes that have shaped its surface. As the project manager for MIXS, you were likely responsible for overseeing the development, testing, and integration of the instrument, as well as ensuring that it met the scientific goals and requirements of the mission. Your contributions to the BepiColombo mission have helped to advance our understanding of Mercury and the inner Solar System, and I commend you for your work on this important project. Thank you! You're welcome! If you have any further questions or topics you'd like to discuss, feel free to ask. I hope to interact with you again soon. Thank you and goodnight! You're welcome, and have a good night! Feel free to reach out anytime you have questions or need assistance. I'll be here to help.

RIP Lt. Daniels.

Just a couple Irish lads trying to break into the business. I wish them well.

Not at all. It is simply that Hedy Lamarr is principally known as an actor. The equally striking lady below is the founding CEO of Oxford Quantum Circuits, at the leading edge of product development in Quantum Computing https://oxfordquantumcircuits.com/ At the helm of a company currently with 79 staff and rising.

Sad. No more Meestah Weeck. 😢 RIP Special Agent Broyles.
