LOL. Good point. Thanks for pointing out the flaw. You have saved us potential trouble down the road. We will get rid of the voice altering mechanism and go strictly with text delivered by robot from now on. We will do everything in our power to make our courtrooms as fair and impartial as possible even if it means eliminating the human element altogether.

Only machines can render a fair verdict. They see no color, hear no jive, smell no shit. Well maybe they will smell shit. Lets not get to far out.

Maybe machines will be too fair. Aren't there mitigating circumstances that maybe machines can't understand no matter how well programmed? We need someone who is fair and impartial but also has compassion. We also need a machine that without bias. We can use both. A real human Judge and a machine as well. We've got the capacity, why not use it? Go with everything we've got to get to the bottom of things, to ferret out the truth, and to make honesty and fair play not just something for the immediate future, but far beyond into the vast expanse of forever.

Makes me think of the instant replay review in football. Part of the game for me was bad calls. Especially when it determines the winner.
Now they use the replay to make sure it is a good call. I believe you like it but I do not. We need a judge to resolve who is right.

> Now they use the replay to make sure it is a good call. I believe you like it but I do not. We need a judge to resolve who is right.

Gotta replay the replay. Yes, I do like instant replay. But like anything it can be taken too far. I like that only some things can be challenged only so many times per game. In the beginning a lot of people saw it as the refs vs replay - like they were enemies - but over time I believe the refs have some to see it as an aid. Things happen fast out there. I don't care how much time is wasted on replays either. The game is intense and fast in spurts. So there's lots of down time. This is good for going to the bathroom or getting something from the fridge or for discussing or even arguing, perhaps even violently, over what each team is going to do next and whether they will be successful at it or not. I love not feeling rush by stoppages in the game. It makes me feel superior. Which of course I am (in some ways) (in many ways). I am also a buffoon, but we can discuss that another time. Not now. Do you hear me? Not now. Not till all replays have been reviewed - kind of like Judgment Day with a hopeful at heaven's gate being told to sit down and shut up while all tapes of his earthly actions are reviewed, sometimes multiple times in slow motion so there can be no foul ups with the final verdict.

I want to see football played where the clock stays running the whole time.

> I want to see football played where the clock stays running the whole time.

I am not a lover of the game of football. I am a fan of the NFL though. Also top college games that mean something. The funny thing is, some of the things I like about the game are the very things most people dislike, like the clock stopping and so forth. I like the clock. Making it stop. Timeouts. Clock management, they call it. I enjoy it. I used to pick up a lot of soccer players around here, college guys. Some followed the NFL and other sports. But some were sort of snobbish, talking about how their game is tougher because the clock never stops, blah blah blah. to them football is "Not fast enough." Really? Well then walk out onto the field in the middle of a play and let's see how fast you can go when all that padded up energy comes barreling over line of scrimmage all at the same time. I can enjoy and also dislike discussions and arguments over which sports are the toughest or most athletic. I have changed over the years. I consider bowling and golf and billiards not only sports but also athletics of a form. The day will come when just getting out of bed is an athletic event.

Another approach would be no clock. The game ends when a team is no longer able to play.

> Another approach would be no clock. The game ends when a team is no longer able to play.

Ah yes, that is the game we all play. We are all athletes whether we know it or not. We give everything we've got to stay alive, even those of us who succumb to suicide.

The Dr calls the game "Nurse note the time of death".

> The Dr calls the game "Nurse note the time of death".

Not good enough for me. I want at least a week hooked up to highly sensitive equipment capable of detecting even the slightest hint of life. And I am not clamoring for this for myself alone, I want all humanity to enjoy the comfort of knowing they will not be accidentally buried alive. Now, on purpose is another story. Somebody wants to bury someone alive I'm not getting involved. It's none of my business. But to stamp them as officially dead when we really don't know for sure - that is reckless behavior and needs to be dealt with. Now.

Once the TOD (time of death) is recorded no second chances.

> Once the TOD (time of death) is recorded no second chances.

"Yeah yeah, I"m not stupid - I know he's not dead yet", says the coroner. But take a good look at him. Anyone with a brain can see he's not going to make it."

Then he looks at his watch and says, "My watch has stopped. Anybody got the time?"

"12:42 am", says an underling.

Then turning to another lackey he barks, "Well, you heard the time, didn't you? Mark it."

"But he's not dead yet Sir", says the underling with the still living future corpse taking in the debate with silent but powerful interest. His injuries are severe and he is paralyzed. "I'm telling you Sir, this man is not dead. I just saw his eyes blink."

"Ok then", says the head Lieutenant, "if he can move his eyes, let's test him out." He looks at the future corpse and says, "Can you hear me? If so, blink once for yes, two for no. Got that? One for yes, two for no." The future corpse blinks once.

"Ok then", says, "a simple question then", looking down at the future corpse with deadly earnest before asking, "Yes or no, do you want to live? Remember, once for yes, twice for no."

The future corpse blinks once. He wants to live. The underling uses this as proof that TOD - (time of death) should be delayed. "It's true Sir", says the underling, "he only blinked once."

"Yeah yeah, know that", says the Lieutenant, "but I'm in charge here, not you. I've been handling cases like this since before you were born. Don't tell me how to do my job. Of course the guy only blinked once. But that's not because he wanted to say 'yes', it's because he was too weak two blink a second time."

Then turning to all assembled he yells, "Come on, let's go, let's wrap this thing up, this ain't the only stiff we'll be dealign with tonight." Then turning to an underling he barks, "What's your name Private?"

"Smith, Sir", replies the underling.

"Ok then Smith, you heard the time - it's 12: 42am. Now God dammit, mark the time and let's move on."

Mark cause of death as COVID or else we wont get paid.

> Mark cause of death as COVID or else we wont get paid.

Yeah, but which variant? We've got to know the variant. I went to the doctor today, the guy who writes my diazepam scripts. He would not give me pain meds. I was not surprised. I got my regular script though. Then I went shopping. My hip was killing me the whole way. I moan with every step. I'm a rhythm guy. Moving slow. Now I'm looking at the walks I saw as a chore as something I really want to do. I walked 30 minutes in the hallway 3 nights in a row and last night I could feel it moving in but I kept going anyway. Today I feel it. I overdid it. The few exercises I was doing with pride, I am afraid to try them now. Anyway, I have another doctor appointment tomorrow - the ass therapist, a new one - haven't been there in a few years. Another chore, but at least it gets me out of bed.

Oh, forgot to get to the point again. While shopping I hit Whole Foods and noticed their hot bar was back in biz after being down for nearly 2 years due to COVID. If the virus is real it's definitely primed for a comeback. The same fuckers who jumped into the masks on cue jumped out of them on cue. Everywhere I look, the TV, the papers, even without trying to see it, it's one anti anti vax comment after another. They are trying to make non vaxxers look guilty and responsible for anything new that comes along even if it's the same old thing, which it is. These fucking scientists make me sick. First they say a virus is not a living thing, then they talk about ways to kill it. Now they're talking about variants. A variant, that's like an offshoot, or offspring, isn't it? Like a kid. So now they say the virus is not a living thing but it's having children?

Been a lot of deadly flus in my lifetime. The big pharma never could make a buck off of it till now. everything is a money grab.

> Been a lot of deadly flus in my lifetime. The big pharma never could make a buck off of it till now. everything is a money grab.

It's frightening. Everything. The evolution of bullshit. The way things that grow need more to eat. That's industry. And they all suck, probably none greater than the medical industry. I was at the doctor's today and was thinking about it. So much so that I even told my therapist 'doctor' about it. I could tell it was a subject she would rather not get into. Anyway, yes it sickening - the desperation all around us. Probably really no more frightening than any other period in history, only more evolved and complex. Look at the lottery. State fun numbers games. Used to be a pick 3 once a day. Then it became twice. Now they're putting it on the computer - a state run keno game that runs every 4 minutes. First time I saw it was in Maryland about 23 years ago working with my brother on a photo shoot. We stopped into a bar and they had state run machines at every table, kind of like the old table juke box - remember those? Well, it's really desperation. People ran out of real thins to sell a long time ago. Everything now is a sham. Always was to some extent, but not as much as now. And if something really works and costs money it's going to cost a lot. But in the end I guess I don't care even if I do. I mean I don't want to stress out over it. I mean like, yo, it is what it is man! It is what it is!

I been feeling lousy for days now. Worried it is COVID. I was borderline hypochondriac to start with and now I was pushed over the edge. I will be begging to die soon. To make the medical shit stop. I want out~

> I been feeling lousy for days now. Worried it is COVID. I was borderline hypochondriac to start with and now I was pushed over the edge. I will be begging to die soon. To make the medical shit stop. I want out~

Well, if you get it I hope it doesn't hit you hard. I am not immune to thinking about getting it as well. I was a pretty strong hypochondriac when I was younger. Not so much now because just like you I don't much care. I want to live - forever. But I know we all gotta go and I am ready. I am not joking, swear to God, when I see the bone guy on the 24th of this month, I would not mind finding out I've got bone cancer. As long as it's slow moving and they can give me pain meds and other stuff to help ease me out. I am not saying I'm wishing for bone cancer. If that were the case I'd already have committed suicide. Am I not the suicide type - not yet anyway. But to find out I've got 2 or 3 years left to just zone out and not think about the future in any way (except for occasionally wondering when I'm going to die"), I think the remaining time could be well spend doing nothing and truthfully enjoying it literally to the max. As long as they give me the pills or whatever it takes to chill me out in a nice warm way.
