Went to ingles earlier to get stuff to make meatloaf. I asked the cashier how she was today, and she said fine, except she desperately needed a relationship. Said she hadn't had one since 2019, and needed a good man to go home to. Guess I'll mind my business at ingles , some people share too much

I remember the debut of Chevrolet’s jingle, See the USA in your Chevrolet. I like the resurrection of it in Chevy advertising.

Did Doris Day sing that?

Dinah Shore

Earliest example I can find

Chevrolet continued to use the audio of Dinah singing in subsequent ads for years.

Seeing much smaller than average performers isn't my idea of a fun date

Joe was probably the main attraction last night. Hooked him up with free tickets.

The Internet was made possible by the invention of two Americans, Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn. Their intention was to improve data conveyance over ARPANET, a Defense Department network connecting universities engaged in research considered of strategic interest. TCP/IP was so effective that it allowed the development of the commercial network we know as the Internet.

Brits will claim that one of their scientists created the Internet. Bah humbug. Without these two Americans, there would be no Internet.

While enrolled at UT in the early 70s, I played BOOG on the ARPANET, a submarine warfare game requiring players to calculate three axis navigation and firing solutions, entering these in green characters on a gray screen. One had to anticipate the actions of one’s opponent in determining the inputs. Early geek video gaming, it was a training exercise. I imagined my opponents were midshipmen, though it was very likely that they were engineering students like me.

New guy at work wants to be called "Ace" rather than his actual name. I told my boss I could not call him that unless he wore the makeup and played guitar. So I found a pic of him and had ChatGPT fix it. It is awesome. I have no idea if it will tick him off, and I really don't care.

Well, he did grow up drinking D.C. tap water 9 months out of the year.
