I've been sitting out on the front porch watching life fly by, thinking about all of the things I have done across all these nearly eighty years. I remember most of them as if they were yesterday, way better than I remember the last year.
I have had a truly amazing life, and I'm a very lucky man. I have loved many women, men, and friends. I truly don't know how I've made it this far, and I sense in my heart I don't deserve it, but I'm still here, and grateful.
My intentions were never harmful, maybe sometimes vindictive because I am a weak human. I've received so much, and lost way more, in this life. But my unforgiving actions were from stupidity and weakness, not from being a bad soul.
I've never killed anyone, and only physically hurt a few in self defense. The only thing I have ever stolen was the pen I swiped in Nana's little store on the side of the mountain where we lived when I was six. I was banned from the store for a year.
As I look back, I hope everyone I loved has survived, and is happy. I know a few have not, but I trust their spirits are still here, and watching over us.
Meanwhile, I had Copilot rework the phrase I've been using to merge my face with an animal, to use with OpenAI's Image Generation tool, and in true AI to AI fashion, he came up with a great phrase using the word, anthropomorphic.
I'm an official Genius member of OpenAI, I pay $5 a month for the privelege, and the images I create are not free, but I own them. I figure this next set will cost me another $5 (actually $7.65), but it beats walking to McDonalds's and spending it on an unhealthy fish sandwich and fries!
Anyway, you know the drill, click the image below to see the show.
