Pick on me Tuesday 11-08

When it comes to blogging there are some who blog with a loud voice and some who whisper.  The one I am picking on today is one with a sweet voice.  Who‘s blog is a reflecting place musing passion for life, and love. When we think of art the first thing that comes to mind is painting, and drawing. Well you will find that there and caring for those in need of love. With a poet soul and the grace of angles it is written.

Ok it’s you tube Tuesday so here we go “YouTube Tuesday, adopted from Josh at Its Tiger Time, is a day set aside for sharing your favorite video.

Feel free to join in each week and see how creative we bloggers can be. Each month, Josh will highlight a selected video and present the winner with the ‘YouTube Tuesday’ Award.
If you participate, remember to leave your YouTube Tuesday link at Its Tiger Time as well as all the blogs you visit.”

The blogger I am picking this week, I just don’t know how to say thank you to, she has help with making one of my dreams come true. Her art is the feature that has given life to and has made it possible to publish my first book. Giving her this award is only a small token of the honor she deserves. To Melissa Tandoc

lot of monday

Howdy folks, well we had a house full on Sunday and just could not get around to posting anything. Got another day here of doctor’s visits, just fixing up this old broken down carcass. The first snow fall came and went and we got about two inches of the icy eye candy. Now don’t get me wrong I don’t like that stuff but it is pretty to look at and a pain to shovel.  Now if things go the way I want them I will get out there in the hills and get some shot of the winters blush on the brush of in the hills.

This week on the Poe-a-tree hop the theme or prompt is about the change in seasons, what is your favorite season?  Summer, fall, spring or winter, how do you feel about the change of seasons? My poem will be called “Mothers Whim”.  There was another candle lit that did not make it to the hop, but it does burn bright, so if you would like go there and see Jerly’s musing of light. http://jerlyt.blogspot.com/2011/11/lighting-candle.html

Now my first book, well maybe booklet, will be going to print real soon. If I can master the formatting in word and don’t mess the edits up, it won’t do it the way I want, but I will win out.

This is the cover please tell me what you think?

Well it off the horse doctor’s and see what he can find to fixes.  See you tomorrow and somebody is picking on me again.

Thank you and God bless.

lot of"hello!,hello!"

The automated system, you know dial the number and you get a menu of options press 1 or say one to pay your bill, press 2 or say two for customer service, and so on. After five minutes and a hundred key press you are ready to rip the phone off the wall or drop kick the cell phone for a sixty yard field goal.  Now I like to talk to someone of average intelligent, but it seems that they have been replace with a mimic of the automated system. You can say or ask just about anything you want and they can’t answer you. I will have to transfer you to another department, and you spent another five minutes punching numbers. An hour or two later you are back to there you started.

I just don’t understand why the people who are suppose to be helping providing a service can’t do it. With all our modern technology why can’t we get service? I have talk to people on the phone and would you believe in person who can’t even respond to a simple hello, they have a script they must follow and not deviate, and there is that service charge, four dollars to talk to a live person to take my payment.

What do you have to say about automated people and phone service representatives? What can we do about them or it? I have worked in the call centers and have I am sorry to say help to design and develop automated answering system.  It seems like a good thing at the time. But I think some the three laws of robotic have been broken.

Three Laws are:

1.    A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

2.    A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

3.    A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.” Isaac Asimov”

But then again they may be just working.

Thank you and I am human god bless.
