Not a Nice Start to the Day

GO SOAK YOUR HEAD BUTCH IM NOT GIVING YOU MY SWEETROLL - iFunny

It used to be, when I started this blog in the morning, I’d find a hundred views already waiting for me. Now it’s more like twenty. When I closed down at bedtime, it’d be with upwards of four hundred views. Now I’m lucky if I get two hundred.

I have no idea why.

Then there’s the business of finding illustrations for one’s posts. I don’t know who’s in charge, but whoever they are–are they quite all there? I type in “images of loutish teenagers” and I get stills from a movie about a queen of alligators. I ask for “soak your head” and get images of soaking your feet. Don’t they know the difference between head and feet?

I asked for “images of Storm Troopers” and all I got was **** from Star Wars.

Tell me again why we would ever want computer chips implanted in our heads.

Ain’t gettin’ much joy out of this, this morning…

 

So You Want a Computer Implant, Eh?

“Hey! Let’s have computer chips implanted in our brains! Computers are so smart, and they work so well!”

How many times have we heard that?

Sometimes I’ll post something on Facebook, and when I visit Facebook, I find that whatever illustration or video I chose for the post… has been replaced by a picture of the Bell Mountain book cover. I didn’t ask for it. Didn’t even think of it. The book cover has absolutely nothing to do with the content of the post.

All right–let’s try to post another Mahalia Jackson video. There is no reason why it shouldn’t go merrily along to Facebook with the text. Really, I don’t know what to expect. Maybe it’ll display images of a Biden rally. Or centaurs.

Only one way to find out…

Later: There seem to be no problems with the post this time. Maybe they’re trying to give me a false sense of security. “See? It works! Nothin’ wrong here.”

I still don’t want a chip in my head.
