  1. This may or may not be in in the background tomorrow

    But at least it will be in 4K / HDR!

    Superbowl for Free in 4K / HDR , thanks TUBI!

    And now you can see the other reason for watching

    (Notice any change in tone due to recent developments?)

    So now you don't have to.

    When I talk with Siri I always say "please" and "thank you."  Even though I'd still be a number or "thing" I want them to MAYBE remember I was nice when AI and the machines take over.... 🤣

  3. Last Night,

    Went to the Napa "Lighted Arts Festival"

    https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/napa/napa-lighted-art-festival-downtown/

    Where we walked around downtown Napa in the cold and dark and light drizzle, seeing art that looked best in the dark,

    but don't left me put you off.

    Here are some of my pictures to give you an idea - the Press Democrat photographer arguably did a better job.

    But I did manage to capture the projection art (arguably the highlight) so you can see it of you don't make it tonight ( the last night of the projection art)

    It certainly manage to a attract people to downtown Napa, both the local families, the Napa Lifestyle Destination Dining crowd, and us.

    Afterwards we enoyed a Lamburger, fries, beet salad, local beer and usual (not shown). The new Costco was closed by the time we arrived. so another time. 

    No opening bargains for us.

    But at least it was an old school organic fire, rather than a high tech lithium ion fire.
