Life is good in the Greenhoe family... and in case ya didn't know it, my name is Verwayne Greenhoe. When I was younger and way overweight, I was called "Big V" because of my weight. I've lost over 200 pounds since then, weighing in at roughly 160 pounds now. I'm going to tell you something I suspect... Sign in to see full entry.

Pups, Russians, and Time Warps
Good morning. This is another 'chilly' start to a day that allegedly will see near 80-degree temperatures. It was 41 degrees and very humid this morning. Even the dogs weren't thrilled to leave a warm bed to go outside. By this evening, they will be lying in the grass in the sun. We gathered all the... Sign in to see full entry.

AI Can Be ALMOST Human
I've talked to many people about the usefulness of AI (Artificial Intelligence). Properly used, AI is a wonderful creation. Of course, there will always be those who use it 'wrong.' This is a conversation I just had with my "Chatbot' on ChatGPT about some technical information I needed for a story I... Sign in to see full entry.

This is one of those "I'm gonna keep this short" posts. I didn't sleep well last night for some reason, and naturally, the guy working on the house stopped by at 7:45 am to tell me he couldn't be here today. Lisa can be awakened and be back to sleep in two minutes, but once I'm up, I'm up. Since... Sign in to see full entry.

I intended to be up much earlier than this, but as I was getting dressed for the day while the dogs were out, my wife told me, "You always are in your office early in the morning. Why don't you let the dogs in and lie with me for a while?" Now, that could be taken as a 'come-on' invitation, but when... Sign in to see full entry.
This Day in History January 28, 1986: The NASA space shuttle Challenger explodes. The morning of the aircraft’s launch was unusually cold, causing the O-rings that sealed the shuttle’s solid rocket booster joints to be vulnerable to failure. Officials ignored the risk, and fail the rings did. Adults... Sign in to see full entry.

About the bank fraud that happened yesterday, it was a good thing I was right on top of things. I had no more than changed all of the passwords when BoA called me back to say they saw someone was actively 'trolling' my account from inside the account. I haven't heard from them this morning, but they... Sign in to see full entry.

Bank Fraud!
AN IMPORTANT FYI. In the last three days, I've received several calls from people portraying themselves as bank reps. At first, the callers are friendly, but then they begin to ask for information that is crucial to getting into my accounts. Look... I see myself in the mirror every day, and there...

We didn't get home until after one in the morning. That wasn't the plan, but we were enjoying ourselves. You can always find reasons to be upset or depressed, but reasons to be happy seem to sweep past us. I was on a hard-running train of thought, but two calls and a visitor later, I've forgotten...

If the Weather Channel is to be believed, last night was the last of the 'super cold' nights we will experience for quite a while. Once again, we got down to 24, bitter cold for the humidity-heavy Florida air. In our old 'hometown' of Newberry in the UP of Michigan, it was -4, so at least we escaped... Sign in to see full entry.
