Good morning. 🌞🌄🕗

29 April 2025

I so want to go back to sleep, but what's the point? Ben and Charlie's mealtime is right around the corner. I suppose I should be doing something active to get my blood moving—but that's what the coffee is for, eh. I threw in the 'eh' at the end so that you'd know I'm bilingual. Hmmm. I suspect most people won't get that little quip, but so be it. I can hear a woodpecker pounding away—it almost sounds like it's pounding on the house, but it's a brick house, so more likely a nearby tree. They've been very active of late. I've already written my 'spring is here' note, but spring is here. This morning, if my house were a tower, it would be the Tower of Babble—because that is what I just did.

"This image captures a dramatic sky during what appears to be a sunset or sunrise. The scene is filled with rich golden and yellow tones, complemented by clouds that vary in density and texture. Some clouds are darker and more defined, while others are lighter and diffused, creating an intriguing interplay between light and shadow. The overall effect is strikingly atmospheric, with a feeling of both warmth and depth. The image is marked with a watermark in the bottom right corner that reads "© Swede's Photographs," adding a personal touch to the piece." - Copilot

Good morning. 🕊️🕊️🕊️

27 December 2024

I'm drawing a blank this morning on anything to write about. Well not completely I suppose, there is religion and politics both of which I have opinions of, but I usually try to steer clear of those subjects on my blog. It rained all day yesterday and it is quite soggy outside this morning, and there is a haze in the air. It looks a bit like the brain fog that I'm feeling. I know ... blah, blah, blah. But some days are just boring, that is a fact of life:
'When the world never seems
To be living up to your dreams'" (written by Gloria Loring BTW). Okay I'm babbling and just typing whatever ... OOOH Nooo.

"The image shows a group of birds in flight against a light sky background. There are seven birds visible, each in different positions and stages of wing movement. The birds appear to be flying in a loose formation. In the lower left and right corners, there are blurred branches of trees, indicating that the photo was taken in a natural outdoor setting. The image captures the dynamic motion of the birds and the contrast between the dark birds and the bright sky. The photograph is signed with "© Swede's Photographs" in the upper left corner." - Copilot

Labeled "92L" on Tropicaltidbits.com. Some question of how intense it gets, but no matter what, looks like it's heading to Florida.

Good morning. 🥬🥬🥬

20 August 2024

Ben and Charlie are back at home. Charlie woke me this morning with a low ruff, like he was trying to wake me and not disturb anybody else. Right now, Ben is behind my chair snoring. I think his snore sounds like the dishwasher. I didn't know he was in here until I heard him, even then I couldn't see him because he is at an angle that just turning my head to see around the chair doesn't work.

I have a full morning this morning, so I need to get going. I know I want to fill this page quickly, so I do what I sometimes do and just start babbling. Hmmm ... I wonder what the roots of the word babbling are, and if it is related to the tower.

Oooh Nooo😆:

The photo is of a bunch of American lotuses (Nelumbo lutea) plants that I saw growing in an inlet off of the Red River flowing past Pineville, Louisiana.  They are sort of a large broad leaf lily type of plant. Unfortunately, it was the wrong time of year, so there were no flowers. Hmmm ... I need to research the timing so that maybe I can go when the lotuses are blooming. Anyway, I thought the scene looked mildly interesting.

Good morning. 🍄🍄🍄

Do you know the technique for counting off the seconds by counting "one one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand ..." and so on. I use that technique often, and it mostly works okay, but if I'm in a hurry, I count faster😂.

Hmmm ... I don't think I'll finish this morning's babble before mealtime for Ben and Charlie.

Babbling isn't as easy as it sounds and something that I'm unaccustomed to in real life. You see, among other people I'm usually quiet and the fact that I have difficulties understanding what most people are saying only makes it worse. Now days, I even have some difficulties understanding my wife and she must often repeat herself.

That cannot be stressed enough. Things like injecting bleach and shining light inside a person to combat Covid should have been enough for a responsible cabinet to remove him. He is worse than a loose cannon. He is like a defective network component. They are said to be "babbling" - receiving data and making nonsense noises in response, feeding gibberish to all the downstream components

A quotation from Anstey, F.:

«
These statements were, as he felt even in making them, not only gratuitous, but utterly unconvincing, but he had arrived at that condition in which a man discovers with terror the unsuspected amount of mendacity latent in his system.

Good morning. 🕊️🕊️🕊️

3 April 2024

I may have mentioned that I don't like going anywhere and only leave the house out of necessity. All of my needs and wants are right here. Now I just mostly piddle around. Surprisingly, I left the house twice yesterday, once for an appointment and once to go to the store. In the olden days, you might have found me sitting at a bar nursing a beer in my off time. Did you know piddling and babbling are behaviors that complement each other? Piddling involves doing things just to keep busy. Babbling is talking aimlessly about nonsense, kind of what I'm doing now. But I have to go somewhere again this morning, so I need to fill this space quickly. Cheers ;-)

There are six pigeons flying through the air from right to left, they seem to be in two smaller groups three up front and three behind. The sky is blue.

Earlier Infant Cleft Palate Repairs Pay Off The %age of cleft palate kids who had nearly normal speech in kindergarten was ~40% higher when their palates were repaired at 6 months rather than 12 months of age. #cleftpalate #velopharyngealinsufficiency #babbling #infancy #nejm instagram.com/p/Cw8S-PwR4es/

But I mean, the justices should be like the best of us no? Not with a shit ton of bribes appearently. The president should be a super knowledgeable person who wants the best for us....not a bag of shit with fake gold hair. There's a ton of people out there who are not only better, they are far far vastly better. Where are they? Are we all chicken shit? I know I am. But are you all? We're stuck with a so so candidate in the brink of due to split vote.

🆓 #OpenAccess #Babbling & early speech in Extremely Preterm Infants aged 1;0 differed significantly from a ref group of TD infants aged 0;10. No difference in presence of oral stops was found b/n the groups, but the EPT group had a significantly lower proportion of infants with CB and smaller consonant inventory. These differences were found even though the EPT infants were 2 months older than the infants in the ref group. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10
