She has always been great hasn't she?
This is her in the 1960's, singing with the sadly deceased Glen Campbell. He suffered from dementia for years, but still managed to perform. Very nostalgic video.

I asked OH to sort out a YouTube video of Christmas favourites for background music yesterday. The first one he found was full of adverts, no good, so he found one ad free, but didn't bother to listen to it. So just before people arrived he started the 'Christmas compilation'....I swear it was some random who had made her own video in the toilet and put it on YouTube, the caterwauling to Last Christmas and Frosty the snowman was painful.
Next year, I will learn to make my own playlist up.

It's 2023. Get an Alexa and tell her what you want to hear. 😎

Nah. I will do it myself.
Why rely on Alexa, SatNav, etc when we actually have our own brains?

The internet is instant, and there is less chance of an email going astray....unless you are drunk when you post it and your wife gets an email meant for your mistress.

And you know that Alexa woman just surfs the internet so you don't have to do all of that typing.

My Alexa is a free download from Amazon on my Windows 10 and the first job she did for me after installing her was work some mileages out for me that I would normally do myself.
I'll have a go later at seeing what she can do for me musically.

I ask her to play artists, what the weather is, use her as an alarm, timer.
She plays the news when I ask, and she will tell me how long to roast Brussel Sprouts.

Well, Shes a lot smarter. Most wives couldn't tell you the capitol of Mongolia followed be the current weather in Brisbane, AU all while playing Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain by Willie Nelson.

Be careful what you wish for...watch TIM on Netflix, or the Black Mirror episode BE RIGHT BACK.
Both pretty chilling stories of when advanced technology can go very awry.
