Yes, but it’s real living marine art - miniature clown fish, anemone, love choral From a friend’s salt water tank

Life as we know it

Being Green

Still pools keep algae to a minimum with aeration  This pond was so green the sand bottom could not be seen  Since then a neighbor has taken up the cause to reverse algae blooms and the oxygen they consume by laying pipes almost the entire length of the pond and pumping in air  All ponds in this area use this accepted method to keep local still waters free of algae  It is a wonder this method is not used for the Washington Reflection Pool -  If it is used  does it work? The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has been plagued by algae blooms and peeling paint following a recent renovation The Virginia contracting firm Atlantic Industrial Coatings will now receive $13.1 million to repair the reflecting pool, the Times reported. The firm previously worked on the swimming pools at Trump's Sterling, Virginia, golf club and was awarded a no-bid contract last month. The Interior Department reportedly added $6.2 million to the existing contract last week. Today our p...

Artificial (Ignorance) Intelligence

 DOG In theory, handing tasks off to coding agents should free up time, allowing larger blocks for deep work and rest. But some developers are having the opposite experience. Instead of allowing for greater focus, the latest AI tools are overwhelming workers, frazzling minds and shredding attention spans. Although agents can do plenty more work now than they could a year ago, they still need human oversight. Like toddlers,  AI agents  ask endless follow-up questions, require detailed instructions—and, if you leave them unsupervised, are liable to make a huge mess. Once you get several running simultaneously, there’s no time for breaks. As “the author” puts it on LinkedIn, his job is to be an “AI babysitter.” As most people who use AI know, the above is general practice, something like owning a new puppy.  Fun, if you’re into this sort of thing and just as messy without continual guidance.  Is AI worth the effort?

The joke and the Joker

 Putin is a joke who makes you cry  There is no reason for his actions because they amount to nothing but fear and pain    Путин — это посмешище, от которого хочется плакать. В его действиях нет никакого смысла, ведь они несут лишь страх и боль.       Jack Benny let you laugh in an unassuming way He was real entertainment in the fifties without gore, just grace and style    Джек Бенни позволял смеяться легко и непринужденно. В пятидесятые он был воплощением настоящего развлечения — без кровавых сцен, лишь с изяществом и стилем.     y    

Hello my name is Chuck Mistretta I am bipolar

    If your looking for solutions, there are none.  This will save you some reading time.  If you want to know why, keep reading.   Bipolar (manic depression) is a neurological manifestation, not a disease that can not be cured with thought or medication.  It occurs from birth or from trauma and interrupts your life for as long as you live.  This is a personal definition only, not a guide.    When delusion is limited with the aid of medication perceptions once enjoyed no longer exist. Therefore a life without delusion no longer accepts the very experiences that at one time defined that life. Consequently the relationships that were born of delusion must be rebuilt. It’s fair to assume, that once reconstructed, they will not mirror any previous state of mind. The loss of the unreal creates a need to reconstruct what is real and it is accomplished more so by necessity than choice. Being able to experience both delusion and hallucinati...

Absolution

Image
 We speak of forgotten sins to boast and pass the time, With laughter in our mouths our souls attempt sublime, Is confession the only cure for ignorant despair? A public cry for absolution fills the air, Thus man in consolation begs forgiveness fair.

"You would  think more brains would be desirable, they got plenty of theses"      “In everything we do, my administration will be inspired by a strong pursuit of excellence and unrelenting success.  We will not forget our country, we will not forget our Constitution, and we will not forget our God.” President Donald J. Trump – January 20, 2025
