1\) Seems like every day there is another story about a Sex Robot. The latest is named Harmony and is equipped with Artificial Intelligence. Harmony doesn't come cheap. She costs around 20 grand. That aside, which is granted a considerable aside, the A.I makes her really life like. Besides moaning, she might also say things like, "You were working late? My computer chip you were working late." Or how about this perennial, "Not tonight. I have a headache."

2\) Photographer Marcio Cabral won the 2017 Animals In Their Environment category for his photograph "The Night Raider. The picture shows an anteater dining at night, alfresco. Marcio was disqualified because it turned out the anteater in the picture was stuffed. Unconfirmed reports claim Marcio said, "The damned real anteater wouldn't hold still."

3\) Prince William and Catherine Duchess of Cambridge named the new prince, Louis Arthur Charles. Now is Louis is pronounced Lou-EE or Lou-ISS? The English do not pronounce the **s** which makes it Lou-EE.The name Louis runs in the family. The prince was not named after the song.

4\) The small Southland chain of pan-Asian restaurants, Yellow Fever, is facing a backlash over the opening of their latest location at the Whole Foods 365 in Long Beach. The owner has run other Yellow Fever locations for years in Venice and Torrance with no complaints. Finally, Long Beach residents saved the day by coming up with some. One complaint was that "Yellow Fever" had a sexual connotation. So far, they aren't being blamed for the disease.

5\) Last Saturday, it was Saturday Night Live and The Deplorable Standoff.
People at President Trump's rally think the people at the White House correspondent’s dinner are deplorable. Of course, those at the WH correspondent’s dinner are convinced the Trump rally attendees are.When you decide which group you identify with you will, as Socrates, mentioned, "Know Thyself."
