This year marks my 55th year living with Type 1 diabetes (I can think of at least one interested reader on this topic). It’s always something to address every several times a day, I am lucky to have gotten this far, always offering thanks to Drs Banting and Best. The “technology” of diabetes care when […]
There’s more to memory than just recall versus forgetting. I came across this brilliant read “To grow, we must forget… but now AI remembers everything” and it downs like the broligarchy thinks they just need to toss into the algorithms is a machine that never forgets? Forgetting is a feature of human memory“Infinite memory” runs […]
While the dog theme is deeply engraved here at CogDogBlog we are inclusive to… cats. This is a story of Crookshanks the Cat, who showed up on our acreage and crawled into our hearts. And… survived a year outside in the -30ºC Saskatchewan winter. But First, The Oscar Story and His Condo First of all, […]
I believe the old saying is true – “[Blogging] insanity is writing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results” like maybe someone actually reading it (?). But heck, I’m not in this for the clicks, it’s my blog, and I’ll retell it if I want to. It’s about a guitar I […]

Based on true gardening events! Almost a year ago Hope was planted in the garden. Hope came in a bag of maybe 20 or 30 more equal sized seeds of Hopes. I imagine somewhere the place where Hope is growin in megasized amounts, truck loads, train loads, one after another, from somewhere not far but […]
(leaving as a placeholder for some AI generated excuses for not blogging). The draft has been in my head! Yes, with last weekend being Mother’s Day, celebrating was held here Saturday at home here that we call “Ursa Acres” or “Ursa” or just often “the universe.” There was home cooked food, family, flowers, and cards.

Oh the swirl of blog post ideas I have organized merely as swirls in my brain… will have to wait. My calendar reminded me that May 2 was the birthday of my Dad, Morris Lee Levine, born this day in Newark, New Jersey in 1928… WHAT A MINUTE. That’s a typo, because my human sometimes […]
