I’m back! I decided to extend Global Day of Unplugging to all weekend. Although I missed chatting with all of you, it was nice being offline with my family. In the past when we’ve unplugged it was usually for a vacation, when there are plenty of tech-free distractions. This time it was an ordinary weekend […]
Dogs, put down the phones, turn off the tablets, and step away from the keyboards! Tomorrow is Global Day of Unplugging! Starting at sundown tonight, March 7, and going through to sundown tomorrow, March 8, dogs and their humans around the globe are encouraged to unplug from their screens and pursue tech-free activities offline. Just […]

Let’s face it, nothing in life is guaranteed forever. This includes social media. Yet each day we share everything from our highs to lows, to just the minutia of daily life. However, have you ever thought about what if access to it goes away? Some may say they have everything backed up on The Cloud, […]
Chuck Billy isn’t the only dog around here who can conduct scientific experiments. This weekend using him as my test subject, I proved that sleeping on the wrong side of the dog bed can lead to a grouchy Golden. We’re all entitled to an off day, even Golden Retrievers. Such was the case with Chuck […]
There has been a lot on the news lately about artificial intelligence, specifically ChatGPT. From what I gather, using AI technology, you can ask it a question and it will generate an answer in a conversation like format that can be used for anything and everything from compositions, to emails, to reports, to presentations.

A birthday isn’t complete without a game that also acts as a party favor to remind you of that special celebration. And that’s exactly what we did for my birthday! A special thank you to our friends Tori, Grant and Andy for telling us about this art project. Please note: we did this last weekend […]
