Absolutely Anything Else

Wish my bro could move into their condo but the witch is there!

He has to avoid her at all costs or he could find himself behind bars for a decade or longer!

She is poison! Black widow spider!

No, best he take a loss if needed then see her face again!

I should be kinder but I know she has a few health issues. Never know, maybe we will get lucky and the grime reaper will visit her soon!!

If only!

5 months ago she put all his things into storage and moved him out of their condo.

He probably has lost everything, she wrote telling him she would only pay for one month of rent.

My SIL was willing to cover the costs but we did not have the info of where the place was etc.

Probably in the thousands now with late fee and such.

I hope he never marry,s anyone again.

I am starting to understand why some people fly solo and some leave everything to a animal charity.

That's bad news it all went to storage with no details.  She knew what she was doing.  If he doesn't pay for the storage, they'll auction the contents off.  I've seen that on TV shows.

A friend of mine came home once and found all his stuff in the front garden of the house he shared with his GF. Obviously people passing through thought it was a free for all and stuff disappeared.

I didn't realise it was the shared home.   Well, he can sell his half but I guess under terms of ownership, both sides will have to agree to the sale.  At the end of the day, there's going to have to be an agreement.  Arguing between parties just gives the lawyers a nice pay day.  More arguments and sniping, the better it is for them.

His silly witch wife has no concept of money.

Easy to spend, hard to make.

That,s why he was living like a homeless person in his van before she back stabbed him for the hundredth time.

Like I mentioned, she blew though over $800,000 on herself in one of her dramatic episodes while she tossed my bro out of their shared home a few years ago for 6 months;

He has to be a , good boy, sit, lay down and fetch or she gets angry.

I really dislike her, she seems gentle when you meet her but underneath she is a snake.

I am upset with him for putting up with it for years. Had no idea he was her lap dog.

I am dealing with my own storage wars ATM.

I got them to reduce my rent by a measly $61. a month on 2 units;

Still getting scammed, ATM they have a special going on for $35. a month for a 5x5 foot unit, I was paying $140; and $178 a month! From $318 to now $257.

Never got to speak to a human, just AI!

I tried calling this morning to ask for a better deal or I was moving out.

A long time customer of over 10 years.

Well have to call back during office hours because they will not even let you leave a message until their office opens in the US. AI with office hours!! Unreal!!

Yesterday we went to the land office to see about something; They close at noon!

Nice work hours if you can get them, 7:30 am till Noon with Friday closing at 10:30 am!

I dislike this AI world!

We were at the land office a way back and yes, it all closes down really early.  Why do they get time off by closing early? To do what?  They did excuse themselves as having back office work.  Well, hire more people to do that so you can satisfy us, the "customer".

I was also arguing with AI this morning because AI didn't understand me.  In the end I kept saying "human please" and eventually after it was complaining and trying to keep online, it gave in and let me chat with a mortal.   I resolved my problem with a human in one minute.  So I am not that concerned how AI will fix everything as it cannot do even the most minor things competently.  I do use it to summarise information and it saves me a lot of time.  I do check very carefully what it says in case it goes mental and has hallucinations.

Maybe your bro could get an AI partner.  I read about this as being a fad in Asia.  Not really sure about that. But I guess it's one way of living.   AI partners cannot hug you or make you dinner.  Or just hang out in bed.  Cheap to run though.  Like an electric car.  One thing I read is that AI enquiries use quite a bit of power and also uses a fair bit of water.   We'll turn the planet into a desert.

Oh no, not an AI GF!

My husband teases me saying he wants a robot wife who he can turn off as needed!

Land office said any papers they give are only good for 30 days.

Wow not long.

Husband has decided to go into city hall and get a code for the online portal from the gov.

Had one before, not sure what happened to our old codes but we need new ones;

I did not bother much for myself about getting one because I still can not read what it says.

Saw a movie last night about a young teen boy and his first love;

A Russian story from the 1820s, but made me think of a young man like you have at home and how easy they can be used and hurt.

Called, Lovers Prayer, on U tube staring Kisten Dunst. Sad but also filmed very beautifully, customs background etc.

That 30 days is normal for all government.  It's in case they make a mistake.    It's never their fault anyway.  I read a lot about he HU property law when we were in dispute with our neighbour. 

I have that government code.  I get BS e-mail now from Fidesz using my details to tell me how great they are.  Once you're in the system, they never leave you alone with their spamming over OV's latest pronouncements. They often invite me to participate in referendums.   Bit dumb.

I seem to remember an Outer Limits or Twilight Zone episode where a lonely miner or worker on a remote outpost receives a very attractive robot wife after his neighbour orders one.  I think she serves him faithfully and takes over mining when he dies. I don't remember the actors but one of them might have been Jean Simmons or someone quite famous as the robot.   There was twist in it like she might have killed him deliberately.  I just don't remember the details.

Now that you mention it, I sort of remember that episode , not sure what show though.

Hmm, do not think most guys want one to work in a coal mine, have ,other ideas...YIKES

I dislike how the gov, make it your problem to follow their rules.

Tried to watch that long Trump speech, skipped portions but still could not stomach it.

All those in attendance looked like they had drank the cool-aid!

Well, yes, most of those applauding Donny are his fans.  Utter waste of time for him to do grandstanding.  A few web sites do fact checking and most of what he said was actually spin or outright untrue.

I do agree, the govt always tries to make you pay for complying but of course, they wrote the rules in the first place.  There is one argument for it and that's regulation is necessary for a functioning society.   One has to buy into it in order to be a part of it.    Sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I can see the actors in that robot episode in my head.  The guy was a crusty old actor, well known for his character performances.  The contrast was the very attractive robot. I've asked ChatGPT and it's not got much of a clue.  I've tried this before with it and it cannot figure it out.   If I can remember the actor as the lead character, then it'd be easy.  He had mutton chops sideburns.

There are similar kinds of episodes, one of which was a Martian wife!  The main character started out thinking of his robot as a thing, a chattel and a tool. Of course how the message it was to be a woman or even a slave, way back when (and possibly even now in some societies).   The guy then comes to love his robot, see it as a person and is terribly upset when it fails (dies).  Something like that. I may be mixing up these stories together. 

It's really taking up some time trying to remember this robot or Martian story.   I'll try and remember.  I'd like to see it again.

Ah got it now - got worked out by AI online - it does have its usefulness.

The Lonely - episode of The Twilight Zone.   Season 1 episode 7.

In the space age, an inmate named Corry, convicted of murder, is sentenced to fifty years' solitary confinement on a distant asteroid. On the fifteenth day of the sixth month of the fourth year of incarceration, he is visited by the spacecraft (flown by a Captain Allenby) that brings him supplies and news from Earth four times a year. Allenby has been trying to make Corry's stay humanely tolerable by bringing him things to take his mind off the loneliness, like the components to build an old car. He believes Corry that the killing was in self-defense and sympathizes with him.

While Corry expects that perhaps he and Allenby will have time to play cards or chess, the captain informs the inmate that the ship and crew can stay only fifteen minutes this time; the asteroid's orbit is such that they would otherwise be stuck fourteen days at least, awaiting favorable orbital conditions to depart. Allenby's crew resent being away from Earth because of the likes of Corry; they delight in bringing news that Corry's pardon was rejected and that murder cases are not even being reviewed. This causes Corry to feel that there is no way he is going to last out the years and the loneliness. Before leaving, Allenby orders his men to fetch a large crate which the captain instructs Corry to not open until the transport crew is out of sight—they have no clue what is inside the box.

Upon opening this special container, Corry discovers that Allenby has left him with a gynoid named Alicia to keep him company. Alicia is capable of emotions and memory and has a lifespan comparable to a human. At first, Corry detests her, rejecting her as a mere machine; synthetic skin and wires only capable of mocking him. However, when Corry hurts Alicia and sees that she is in fact capable of crying, he realizes that she has feelings. Over the next eleven months, Corry begins to fall in love with her. Alicia develops a personality that mirrors Corry's, and the days become bearable.

Stars:

1. Jack Warden as Corry
2. John Dehner as Allenby
3. Jean Marsh as Alicia

I knew Jean Someone and it turned out to be Jean Marsh.   I thought Jean Simmons.  I was close!  Not bad guess considering I saw it 30+ years ago.

Forget about doing puzzles to keep the memory sharp.

Just think about old tv shows and who started in them.

Looks nice outside,spring is coming early.

Haha, yes, I'm not interested in puzzles but I am interested in old TV and movies.

I've been on my Yul Brynner binge (saw 3 of his movies) and it seems, I might start a Jean Simmons track.  Not a Jean Marsh track - I watched the Twilight Zone episode.  Only 24m long.

Mrs Fluffy tells me Spring has arrived.  I'll get to find out when I get back soon enough!  I've had enough now. I can only take so much restaurant food and hotel breakfasts.
