I have feeling some really good things and some really dire things will happen this year. Some days may even experience some of both. Personally, collectively and robotically.
Yeah I think that alot. We live in amazing times where all the time incredible things happen that are good (literally mean incredible as in hard to believe it's real) and also some terrible things that frankly shouldn't be shocking will also happen. Like how we got such a long period without a pandemic in our lives and then get surprised by when it actually happens. Like man that used to be something people knew would happen in their lifetime at least once if they were super lucky.

In 2025 the fondest hopes and dreams of the lovers of hard core, nostril nosed, high lonesome twang will be made true by Dolly promoting Rose into hillbilly stardom.

Rose is better than Dolly ever was. Not only her clear as a ringing bell accent less voice, the inflections, the time, the effortless way she hits every note, is beyond comparison with any other pretty girl singer that ever was, bar none. She can take a flat top acoustic guitar and sit in a chair with work boots, her hair in a bonnet, not one trace of make up, in a granny dress, and outperform any other woman that ever twanged since Jenny Lou Carson, Kitty Wells, June Webb, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Pretty Miss Norma Jean, Connie Smith, Tammy Wynette, Dolly, Emmylou Harris and Rhonda Vincent all combined.

If she’s promoted and managed at all, she’ll own half of Lancaster County in a few years. This, is entertainment worth a billion dollars.

And AI can’t twang like she twangs.:)

She doesn’t need to leave Lancaster County, they need to bring the best writers and pickers and back up singers in Nashville to her.



Her husband Ben and some other guy she sings with are talented but no living person can hold up a candle to her talent.

This original song could be number one for months on the pop and country charts, both.

I visited the SE Louisiana Veterans Cemetery yesterday and saw that robotics have eliminated the job of cutting the grass. I've been there when the maintenance crew were doing the work and I'm sure they don't mind. It would take two or three days to do the job properly.

This is exactly where my mind went when I read “Leafs win the cup”
Followed shortly after by a line from another great Tragically Hip song: “you said you didn't give a fuck about hockey and I never saw someone say that before”
That’s a terrific song. Might be my favorite Hip tune.

Why do we continue, as society, to support this advancement? If we all know it doesn’t end well in any possible outcome (weaponization, society control, job disruption, environmental damage), why do we continue to purchase and use and support this shit?
