    That's the Way It Crumbles, Cookie-Wise

    While I'm on this topic, this is an analysis by Fil Henley, of Jo Stafford's voice on another song, "You Belong to Me." The first 10 minutes are interesting, but probably only if you are a nerd. :unsure: I wish he would take the instrumentals out of "Do I Hear a Waltz" and send it to me.

    What do you think of AI on the internet?

    I asked Google A.I. why a particular model of 30-year-old Sony stereo speakers were no good. It described a "crossover" component that was left out, to save money. Apparently this component separates the frequencies of music into the low tones and all others before it sends information to the...

    This version of the song is why I wanted a copy of the Jo Stafford version instead. The comparison is a lot like comparing Dolly Parton and Whitney Houston. I just think it's strange to belt out a love song at the top of your lungs. It would scare me away. :oops:

    This conversation reminds me of the song, "Do I Hear a Waltz?".. Why you might ask? :ROFLMAO: I bought a Jo Stafford album, released in 1966. What was I thinking? :rolleyes: It's the only song on that whole album I like. It was nowhere to be found on the internet or on any website that sells...

    Bird Watching

    It is molting season here. Most of the birds have disappeared. They claim it's because birds can't fly as well during that time due to loss of feathers, so they lay low, so to speak. The ones that do show up, especially the cardinals, look pitiful.

    I gave the model numbers of 4 components of my parents' stereo system (receiver amplifier, radio tuner, and 2 sets of speakers) to Google A.I., and asked it to compare these with new ones. Tell me if anything is worth keeping if I only want to listen to FM radio. I was surprised at only one of...

    No. Records don't take up much space. But I did finally throw away my 1973 Realistic MC1000 speakers on the trailer last month. They would have been useful for this situation. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. 🤷‍♀️

    What's your Weather like today

    We are headed into the hottest week so far this summer, if the forecasts are correct. Highs: 97, 97, 98, 100, 97, 96, 97. The lawn is all mowed. I don't have to go outside. We'll see.

    Distractions... I was practicing with the buttons and knobs on the Ranger in the Walmart parking lot and discovered the knob that tunes the radio. :) The first station it landed on was 104.1 FM---loud and clear. They were playing 1950s music, uninterrupted, no commercials all the way home. Very...

    Buttons and Knobs May Be Coming Back

    I am dead serious about this touch screen for my own driving. There have been a couple of occasions I've swerved out of lane while tinkering with the "Climate" settings. Many rural Georgia main roads have no shoulders. If you're going 55 mph a few seconds can make a big difference. I've seen...

    Buttons and Knobs May Be Coming Back

    I was a hold out on using seatbelts for a long time. Even after they made it a law for the driver to wear them, I wouldn't use them as a passenger. In Georgia you were exempt for several years if you drove a pickup. :rolleyes: Then a friend convinced me to grow up. Having said that, the...

    Buttons and Knobs May Be Coming Back

    Yes, Those Big Touchscreens in Cars are Dangerous and Buttons are Coming Back <--link Some studies suggest using touchscreens may be even more dangerous than texting while driving. The evidence is being translated into car safety assessment programs. From this year, ANCAP Safety and its...

    Just finished the inside of the vanity tonight. There is nowhere on that floor you can put the level where it won't turn green now. (click to enlarge)

    It's in a little awkward place for a laundry chute. I could install a hidden trap door in front of the shower, to discourage overnight guests.
