Rough weekend that I'm glad is over. Long story short, I had to help move the Girl back to Reynosa. She lost her job in January and hasn't had much luck landing a new one. Her best prospects are out of state. I had a coworker at Lucent that was a native down here that … Continue reading A long trip. A blast to Reynosa and back

Winston in his happy spot. The sitter took this. Hence, he's in his room, not in the hallway watching.
Performing
Get a load of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxJvIHdap1c The title is "Woman Says White People Learned to Be Fake" She says black people have trouble fitting in the corporate world because everyone else, especially white people, learnt to be fake.

The old man told us to use the proper tool, the way it was intended. We may have been hitting nails with his pipe … Continue reading AI Lunacy
A New Season
Texas doesn't have four clearly designed seasons. It has 12: We had a blast of nice warm days. It was glorious. I started my skin toughening routine: I sit out 15 minutes front, 15 minutes back every day to get a base tan. Why? So when it's intense, I don't wind up with sunburns when … Continue reading A New Season
