Now I can’t stop thinking about getting a start at running.  It seems pretty easy enough.  Maybe I needed something to synopsize the experience, in bite-size morsels of text, accompanied by epic strains of Minnie Riperton’s “Les Fleurs” (a song that is stuck in my head now).

This is the very first commercial for an AI that I’ve seen.  I’m sure there have probably been at least a few others already but I’m not much of a television watcher, apart from my set being almost constantly tuned to nostalgia channel MeTV.

I might at last start running for exercise and fun.  There is a nice straight road that goes past my house, and every so often I see others walking and running on it.  Might as well take advantage of it too.  I turn 52 next week (though the kids I work with keep telling me that I look 35), I don’t think that’s too old to start anything new.

(Speaking of which, I’m considering visiting a new game store nearby tonight.  Tuesdays are when they have people teaching newcomers how to play Magic: The Gathering.  I know nothing about that game other than it uses lots of collectible cards but I’m feeling a curiosity to educate myself on what it’s about.)
