4th of July

Being a good Montanan we'd either go to a Veterans group BBQ and picnic up in the Mt side of the Big Horn Mtns , or a rodeo which was either all local contestants a Ranch Rodeo if you will or drive to Red Lodge for the parade then the Rodeo and fireworks afterwards .

Then i quit drinking adult beverages so I'd go up to A out of the way spot up in the Beartooth mtns for fishing and relaxing then watch fireworks from different ranches , and towns from the side of the mtns while sitting on a jeep trail ! A slice of heaven in my way of thinking !

Now days I stay at home where we BBQ , play various games and watch grandkids run and play to burn off some extra energy before it's dark enough to light fireworks .

Personally I'd like to be in the Washington DC area to watch the fireworks from a distance , yes I'm sure there's going to be plenty of videos floating around to watch it . Then I don't have to deal with the crowds ha ha .

Happy Independence Day and here's to the next 250 years !
I think watching fireworks from the side of a mountain would be far better than being in DC.

High tech glasses/cheating at pool?

DigiBall is a indication of better things to come and maybe there’ll be a link of DigiBall to AI
intelligent glasses that display shot probability or maybe the normal cue ball deflection path.
Science is making leaps and bounds that seemed unimaginable even only a decade ago.
I bought some hardware and spent some time on making glasses that simply monitor retina movement during your final stroke. Just to catch if someone is looking up before they should be. If so you’ll see a red light on the inside of the glasses. Otherwise it’ll be green.

This is doable but is challenging. I gave up for now and will try again in the future, but the software works.

Making AI glasses with the precision needed for things beyond this simple case is not currently available.
