I can totally relate, Roger! My mother, Faith, and father, Roger, were 'worker bees'. Both had 2-year degrees. My mother was in art from the Chicago Art Institute, and my father had an engineering 2-year degree.

My father built our log cabin, pool, a huge cantilevered roof workshop with a cement floor with a pit to work on a car, an airplane pontoon boat, fix cars, do wiring, plumbing, and everything to work on the 30 acres.

Oh, yeah—he felled the trees by hand and hauled them up using a one-man 'skinner', a two-by-four with a chain at one end and between two steel-wheel tires.

My mother was an intellectual who was always reading and working. She was a walking dictionary and encyclopedia. She was also a great cook and could back up my father in keeping the place and us going.

Pretty amazing, huh? I could go on...lol.

I feel lucky to have had them as parents!

Hi Robert

Robots with AI will almost certainly play a life-changing role in human civilization, hopefully for the better.

It’s all up to us! 😎

Nice quote, Roger! I have heard that one before!

My grandparents worked the land and so did my parents. My great grandparents probably did, too and those before them. Now I am working the virtual land of the internet trying to eke out a living from the property that I own on here.

I don't do the physical hard work that my ancestors did, but my brain sure gets a workout!
