Wait’ll You See the AI Stuff Replacing all that Dusty Crap in the Louvre!
So, such and such claims it’s a coinkydink that actual human writers are being laid off and replaced by Artificial Intelligence “journalists”. Whull. Color me shocked. For crying out loud, either this phenomenon is already in full swing at many…

More About the Barnes & Noble Renaissance
Interesting STUFF from the Wall Street Journal regarding the upswing in Barnes & Noble Booksellers’ fortunes. It seems to me that the revival of the hallowed chain is due to variegated strands of cultural and economic influences and shifts, but…

Volubilis … Still on the Bucket List
I have traveled to the glorious scene of this ancient, ruined Roman city in Morocco since childhood, borne on the wings of enchanted imagination by Eleanor Hoffman’s “best kept secret” classic, Mischief in Fez. If global human civilization doesn’t lose…
