Tag: a message to my readers

A lot going on today.

I read about “dynamic pricing”.  This  is supposedly coming to a store near you, and is already in some Walmart stores.  The price labels on the shelves are being replaced with electronic devices, that will reflect prices in “real time”.  Technically, the price will go up (or down  ha ha) in real time.  Like when you put something in your cart, it might be one price, but by the time you check it out it could be another.  I have to read more about this because there are all kinds of rumors about it flying around. There are supposedly so many vectors that come into play that the sensors could be picking up on (including your banking information, which they can pick up if you use your cell phone) that it boggles the mind.  Talk about gratuitous technology!  I have to run this one by Unknowable.

That’s why I pay cash.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Today was a totally crappy day.

First, it is horrendously hot–I mean like standing in front of a blast furnace hot.

Then I had some issues with WordPress and reprints.  I like to reprint some of Lee’s posts that he featured on different days–and I found out that the email notices were not being sent, so those posts were in limbo unless someone just happened to find them on the blog.

I think that may be straightened out–I will know better tomorrow.

Then I had a hard time finding material to post.  I like to post things that I think people will find interesting–that can be harder some days than others.

Well, I did my best.  I hope you all have plans for fun stuff do do tomorrow and for the rest of the weekend.

Have a good night all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Right now it is  104 with a heat index of 109.

Needless to say, the prescription run this morning was the most physical thing I did today.  This is bad, even for New Jersey.

It is supposed to be even hotter tomorrow.  One of the problems is that it is not cooling down overnight, like it usually does.  Hopefully by the end of the weekend, things should be back to normal.

I realized today that I have been having a problem all along with all the reposted material.  It will appear on the blog, but WordPress does not send e mails for previous posts.  I looked up how to correct that today, so if you got and email notifying you about the post  They Shall be as Gods, it is working.  If you didn’t get the email, it’s not working and I will have to try again tomorrow.  If you could let me know if you did get the email, I would appreciate it.

That’s it for now.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Got back a little while ago from going to the pharmacy for my prescription.  Mind you, the pharmacy is very close–and my cars A/C is working just fine.  But the short walk to the car and getting out of the car in the parking lot and walking to Walgreens felt like I was doing the Ironman challenge.  It is going to be infernal here for the next couple of days.  I am praying that everything keeps working.

Just to let you know
