 dd 1 21

Finally live again thanks to nick and one solid wire that I never would think would be the way it travels --- at any rate he put in 500 '  of  a wIRE

between the house and the cabin which had a solid copper core any rate that carries everything on the one solid core and then a can looking shoe box thing  behind my chair which apparently then splits it into television and Internet and things like that I could not believe I thought the wire coming across was extremely complicated with at least 100 different whatevers but apparently they all come through on one copper Core. ..

 

Now the problem is it's not hung in the trees and his assumption is with one copper core that if not too many people drive over it we may be all set however I don't seem to be able to get people to park on the parking pit. 

 

Moving on to the food situation I want was a tremendous fan of the clam chowder made by  BLOUNT--or something very close to that which I ordered from food savers frozen in about 12 inch long bags frozen solid. their shrimp and corn chowder wasn't too bad either..  I just found something in Costco the same bags frozen so they look very similar but you know it just isn't the same clam  chowder..  and that's all I have for breakfast actually I have both of eggs from Elizabeth Barnard bunch..   I do like  the prepared things...

 

Gwen( daughter) will be arriving this afternoon-  we could almost identify  people ‘s visit with what food  gets  exploited..  with gwen there have been lobster lunches for $90.00 at  Browns in  see brook--or the chicken Stew which lasted for months  frozen -  ohh who  could forget Mary and the sweet roll production the second batch of which very well-- so much so Elizabeth that became diabetic and we had to tone that down---   this visit could be the corn relish ----if I had my way.  somehow I missed out on fresh corn season last fall even with the number one corn producer right up the street from me marie's farm--  and with corn relish I should be doing it with fresh corn but we got to practice on something---- my mother used to make awfully  good doing corner;ish  and it was a  painless  vegetable sort of thing..  Like broccoli salad-- raw broccoli with bacon and the things.....

 

I tell you when you're stuck in the house you can't even make it out the front door the desperate for amusement.

fortunately someone sent me a book about the 4th industrial revolution-I don't know who sent  it --why they thought I would be interested in that title but I certainly AM---  and I'm nearly halfway through in a day--  dealing with things like AI Internet 3D printing whole bunch of very interesting things that could and might be already happening..  mostly it is tackled from the standpoint of what it will do to the labor force..  and that certainly is a problem ----one statistic which I can't remember exactly but the concept was very real ohh the number of people involved in the production of the autos in Detroit and the growth is the product to which they contributed with that number of people compared to the number of people producing three times the gross national product in  Silicon Valley---I'm sure my numbers aren't quite right there but the concept

 

I can remember-----   when my sister got involved with politicsat about 10 years old..... and she try to interest me first by telling me if truman  got elected the world would come to an end-- which worried me for days---and then she went on about how if we replaced the agricultural workers with a great big tractor then all those agricultural workers could go to work in the factory building tractors---- this book from the 4th industrial revolution was really quite concerned with the same sort of thing by saing that doesn't always work out that way........the author is  a very knowledgeable sort of fellow--and I am thoroughly enjoying the book but I do think he's not giving proper attention to the labor force distribution---  and the other thing totally missing is production of   drinking water

 

he gets into great length of the jobs most prone tp automation.  --which would include insurance appraisers umpires the real estate brokers where those least prone to automation would be #1 mental health and substance abuse workers physicians and surgeons psychologists and choreographers????..

 

I suffer with the  already invasive AI--- which seems to be getting worse because the dictation goes farther afield than it used to. I didn't mind it figuring out thatm my use of the sound hey   was hay-- but some of the latest combinations don't make any sense and I find myself really good awful lot almost to the point of not dictating sometimes

all the joys of everything being misspelled the first leg....   see that was first place not looking... leg

I will quit while I'm ahead
