In 1983, Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft appeared on a British variety show and sang Sweet Georgia Brown.
In Polish.
Happy Birthday 98th birthday to an absolute legend.
Do you guys remember that time Tulsi Gabbard made a fool of Joy Behar on The View for spewing Hillary Clinton's lies and the audience sided with Tulsi? 😂😂🤣
Sad news this morning. The legendary Kinky Friedman has died. He was 79. Irreverent, iconoclastic, but with a heart as big as Texas, he lived on his own terms. Truly one of a kind.
I'm trying to figure out what my favorite Kinky quote is. Among them:
1) "If elected, the first thing I'll do is demand a recount."
2) "A fool and his money are soon elected."
3) "There's a fine line between fiction and non-fiction, and I believe I snorted it in 1976."
4) "I believe musicians can run this state a lot better than politicians. We just won't get much done in the morning."
5) "Remember: Y'all is singular. All y'all is plural. All y'all's is plural possessive."
6) “Money can buy you a fine dog, but only love can make him wag his tail.”
7) "Friedman's just another word for nothing left to lose."
Kinky was not a native Texan, but he once said that he had to come to Texas because we were the only state that would put up with his nonsense. It was here that he caught up to his future. There will never be another like him.

It is amazing how big the technology giants went on building voice assistants that never quite worked. We don't know Apple, but Amazon has spent between $20B & $43B on Alexa & has/had 10,000 people working on it.
They are so clearly a dead-end to be replaced by LLMs quite soon.
