Been listening to the long-awaited new album from Mumford & Sons, Rushmere. My favorite track, not surprisingly, is “Caroline” (okay but it actually might be my favorite even if it didn‘t feature my name! It‘s really catchy!)

pickThis collection of nine short stories published in 1950 is extraordinary with its vision of a future with robots. Each story could stand alone but they collectively tell a larger story. The famous “Three Laws of Robotics” first appears here. Really interesting and well-thought out. Hard to believe that this was written well before artificial intelligence was developed. Bravo!

I tend to muddle through, but I love reading screenplays and this would be my go to read.

It's been a while since I've done a #192025 update. These are the slots I've filled, in the past few months. I've completed 75 of the 106 prompts!

#TuesdayTunes when American Graffiti came out it was some young people‘s first exposure to 50s & early 60s music .The film had bit parts for the then not well known Harrison Ford & Suzanne Summers. What stands out from the Big Chill, Rolling Stones “You can‘t Always Get What You Want” could be considered a key song in the plot. Not uncommon in that era for a group to allow it in film but not the soundtrack. To garner sales for their album?
Spent my Saturday getting all my Halloween & fall decor out, including this new acquisition! His name is Stu because he‘s my favorite Ghost Face (the pumpkin is named Billy of course). Now settling down to put together a list of books I want to check out from the library next month for #hauntedshelf and team #skeletoncrew!
so-soMy husband & I finally finished I, Robot on our beach trip. He liked it better than I did, and we liked different things. I liked the stories with more action, like Liar, and he liked the ones with a lot of philosophy, like Evitable Conflict (which I thought was too long.) We started The Masquerades of Spring on our way back. I read How the White Trash Zombie Got Her Groove back (ebook) and listened to The Maidens on my #audiowalk.
pickCatching up on reviews.😬

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Can‘t wait to read more of Asimov‘s Robot series. It‘s more of a collection of short stories or even thought experiments. My favorite of them all was “Liar”. It didn‘t end up how I thought it was going to at first. The progression through the stories was nice, it kept them all connected. It definitely makes you think about the future of humanity and how it‘s interlinked with AI.
