  1. Here are my newest songs. The other day I went to the drive-thru at McDonalds near the job I had just finished to grab some lunch. The line was not moving. I sat there waiting. I was in the right-hand lane just after the split. There was a car behind me. The girl came on the box a couple times to tell me it would still "a minute or two" ... they had to reboot the computer. After about 10 minutes, I checked mu mirrors and saw I could back up and leave the lane since the car behind me was not right on my bumper. So, that's what I did. On my way home, I pass another McDonalds, so I stopped there and found the line was quite long - although it was moving. This was the inspiration for this song about going to the drive-thru at McDonalds. A brother I Zoom Chat with regularly who lives in Vermont (he is a member of this forum) has some black raspberries that grow wild behind his house. He picks them and gets enough that he can freeze some for use during the cold, snowy winter. That prompted my next song. After being inspired by this brother, I was inspired by my close relationship with my own fleshly brother, also a JW. We have lived on the same property we grew up on most of our lives. We used to work secularly together at various times and are friends as well as brothers. When we can, we like to go fishing together just to relax. That is the inspiration for the third song in this group.
  2. I know some people said about Wikipedia the same things they say about AI - that it can't be trusted because there are errors in some of the information. I have not had the issues of AI giving me ALL wrong information or constant hallucinations. I have found that AI works fine when used correctly. Often it comes down to phrasing the question/prompt correctly. Of course, I am not relying on AI for legal advice, medical advice or ways to get around legal restrictions. When I have used AI to find out how to fix an issue with my vehicle it has given me reliable information and directed me to the appropriate places for videos, parts and/or diagnostics. Likewise, when I ask Alexa to turn on/off certain lights, it always gets the right ones. My 'problem' with AI is the number of people who seem to view it as a companion, comforter, or otherwise actually as an 'intelligent' thing. The AI we have now is basically a massive 'search engine on steroids'. In other words, it is a tool. Like any other tool, there is the potential for misuse or misunderstanding of how that tool should be used.

  7. With the World Cup in full swing, I thought a nod should go the Special Witnessing program at the various venues. Here is a song about cart witnessing at such an event:
  8. For this JW song. I actually started out with an idea in mind. I have been trying to create some songs that change style and/or tempo in the song - either change altogether or go back-and-forth between two styles and/or tempos. While this is something that Suno is supposed to be able to do, it seems you need the paid "Pro" account do it properly. However, there is a way to kinda' do it with the free version but the results are not always totally predictable but sometimes, it comes out quite nice. Well ... There is a thread on the forum about Gospel music. Some said they actually do enjoy that style of music. My newest song didn't start out as a gospel song, and it may not actually be a true gospel style - but it comes close. See what you think:
