Our political leaders are lying to us.

I know its always been there, but it’s rampant now.

And with the advent of AI we don’t know if we’re talking to a person or a machine!

For every relationship to succeed, its foundation must be embedded in TRUST!

We also must include the impact on our kids made daily by social media.

Trust must begin in our homes with loved ones.

You and I must ALWAYS tell the truth.

People who speak the truth are trustworthy.

It’s just that simple!

Always TELL THE TRUTH!

If not today, when?

Yes, I did!

And it made me feel so good.

Today’s kids need all the love they can get.

25% of parents in the U.S. are single parents.

I want to salute them because their burdens are great!

The dad I saw this morning walked his daughters to the open door of the bus.

I also want to salute the grandparents who provide vital parenting in many homes today.

Parenting is our number ONE priority.

Remember, “It takes a village!”

tt began as an unnerving high-pitched hum, like a mosquito flying around a dark room at bedtime, and it grew louder as it drew closer.

A family lounging in a backyard pool in Richardson, Texas, just north of Dallas, couldn’t help but notice it.

“There’s another one coming this way!” shouted Eric Anderson from his pool float, pointing to an area above a tall line of trees.

His 9-year-old daughter, Isla, removed her swim goggles for a clearer look at what could be a scene from science fiction.

Within a minute or so, an 83-pound drone with six blue arms and whirring propellers appeared in a corner of the sky before zipping over nearby houses,

It looked like a cross between a mechanical dragonfly and an X-wing fighter, and buzzing like a battalion of bees.

The drone’s mission: delivering an Amazon package.(CNN)

It is another example of intusion in an otherwise private life!

If not, why not?

I have always been amazed at how generous God is.

Just think of it!

We are allowed to actually create other human beings.

I know there are imperfections in our world.

But I believe most imperfections are man-made.

I also believe in the power of prayer.

My prayers, however, seldomly ask God for some need I have.

The great majority of them are prayers of thanks for our blessings!

Geoffrey Hinton, widely known as ‘The Godfather of AI’, is a leading figure in artificial intelligence and a pioneer of deep learning.

He co-developed key algorithms for training neural networks, including backpropagation techniques that became central to modern AI.

As a longtime professor at the University of Toronto and a former Google AI researcher, his work has shaped the foundations of machine learning worldwide.

He left Google and has said he regrets inventing AI.

NOT ME!

The whole world is ADDICTED to CELL PHONES!

If you’re in a crowd of people, look around you.

All your fellow addicts are on their cell phone.

And in addition to security questions, vendors need to know your zip code.

And now they’ve added your middle initial.

Technology has made every day more complicated than yesterday.

And people around the world are using your technology to steal your life savings!

Have fun!

Raised in Appalachia, Grandma Joy lived a life shaped by constraints and hardships, while Brad grappled with the weight of family rifts and unresolved pain.

Together, they embarked on a quest not only to witness the majesty of America’s wild landscapes but also to heal generations of struggles and misunderstandings.

Over seven years, they sought to visit all sixty-three US National Parks.

From the towering peaks of Denali to the otherworldly beauty of the Everglades, each park became a classroom.

They learned profound lessons about nature, resilience, and each other.

Nashville International Airport is set to be renamed to honor Dolly Parton after a unanimous vote by the local airport authority.

Once the effort clears all the hurdles, it will make Nashville one of the few major cities in the country with an airport named after a woman.

The Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority Board of Commissioners, which oversees the airports, approved the name change in a 6-to-0 vote during a meeting on Friday.

In a statement, the authority said that “a final name has not yet been determined” and that the vote was the first step in a “multifaceted process.”

IN REMEMBRANCE!
