I’ve always been a fan of music – all types of music. I’m fascinated with the craft of songwriting. I have tried off and on to write a few – unsuccessfully. I’ve recently been a part of a number of business discussions on AI (Artificial Intelligence), which inspired this post of my first AI generated […]

As a first-time visitor to Belfast, I had the privilege of delving into the still segregated city’s complex past through the eyes of a remarkable individual: a black cab tour guide who not only lived through the Troubles but actively participated in them as a youth, eventually serving time in prison. This unique perspective from
I am taking my dying Father’s words to heart … “I’m doing it while I can.” I’m traveling and experiencing life while I still have my health and am able to get around to see the world. You don’t have to travel around the world to do this. I go out for a daily walk
