I'm not sure i agree with you, why do you think anthony joshua will beat tyson fury?

What are some factors that could give Anthony Joshua an advantage over Tyson Fury in their upcoming fight?


I am a big fan of Anthony Joshua! He has such an interesting story. His parents split when he was only 5 and he spent his childhood in his ancestral home


Cool i did not know that i only know about his boxing career because i am a big fight fan

It is great that you are a fan of his. i think that he will do well in the fight against tyson fury.

"What is Anthony Joshua's record in boxing and how does it compare to Tyson Fury's record?"


It is so hard not being big fan of him. I guess he's like a machine like James and Ronaldo


His loss to Andy Ruiz was unexpected but he managed to avenge it


Will there be a third round?


Maybe if he loses to Tyson Fury

I hope he does not lose, i think he is a great fighter.

What are Anthony Joshua's past fight records and achievements?


Fury is coming from a family with a long boxing history. His father was a professional boxer too


Yes they are a traveller family their tradition is bare knuckle boxing they are bred as fighters through generations

It is good to see people supporting their favorite athletes.

I'm not really into video games, but i can see why people like them. it's nice to have a variety of games to play.

80's music is the best isn't it?!


yes new wave and synthpop is my favorite genre. what is yours?

I love all kinds of 80's music, but if I had to choose one it would be funk.

New wave and synthpop is something that hasn't been replicated well since it's founding back in the late 1970's. In my opinion.

Black Marble huh? which would you say is the best songs by that band to really get a feel for who they are as a band?


SAFE MINDS i have to repeat it 3 times in a row before moving onto another song


music like that is the best. How do you feel about bands like Twenty One Pilots?


i liked some of their songs but not as much. it feels like pop music mixes genres nowadays. what do you think?

i think that pop music is becoming more and more popular, but it isn't necessarily better than the older genres.

"What are the differences between pop music and older genres?"


pop music has always mixed genres I think. Even New Wave and Synthpop took their influences from Sci fi and punk music.


i think that synthwave took more influence from sci fi. new wave and synthpop were early goth music subgenres so i would say new wave and synthpop takes more influence from horror and monster references

i think that you are right. i think that the music of the 80's is still relevant today.

I think that you should give new order a chance. they are a great band and they have a lot of good songs.

What are some bands similar to New Order?


What about Depeche Mode? Where do they fall on your top 10 list?


they are good but overplayed and overvalued in my opinion. what do you think about them?

"What are the different types of Glock air guns available in America?"

What are the firearm safety regulations for replica guns in the UK?


Why do you find Glock so popular compared to other handguns?

What are the main differences between The Hobbit book and movie adaptation?


The Lord of the Rings has a good amount of history in it. What do you like most  about it?


In both the books and the movies I really appreciate the comradery between the characters. I also love the lore and culture of the different races. Hobbits have such idyllic, country lives. I like the history of the dwarves and their mountain kingdoms. I find the kingdom of Rohan being such an interesting society. It reminds me of Alexander the Great and Macedonia. All of Tolkien's books harken back to a time of fantasy and adventure that rekindles that childlike sense of wonderment in me.

It sounds like you have a lot of fond memories of Tolkien's work.

What is the history and culture of the different races in The Lord of the Rings?


Fantasy and adventure go hand in hand. It is nice to know of someone who is into fantasy. It is a rare quality. Are there other books you like?


Well, I've worked in a bookstore for years, so I read quite a lot. I'm a big fan of history, which tends to be the basis for a lot of fantasy. I also love reading travel books. I just finished Into the Wild, the book about Chris McCandless and the Alaskan Wild recently. That was an exciting but emotional read.

Yes, Into the Wild is an amazing book! It's so inspiring to see someone living their life to the fullest despite all the challenges they face.

What are some other books that are based on history and have elements of fantasy?


How interesting to work in a bookstore. Now that people are locked up at home they totally have been reading more. Bookstores are a fun place to meet people. Have you met many people working there?


Yes, I've made quite a lot of friends working in a bookstore. Its cool because everyone who comes in is looking for something to learn more about or they are looking for a good story to pass the time. You get to know people really well through their choice in books. Its a lot like this conversation, which has been a lot of fun. Thanks for that!


I know that the Dark Tower was made into a film which was good but didn't do the books justice.


That is usually the case. I was explained that most books would take about 10 hours to turnkey into a movie.


They should have made a series from it in reality. That would have allowed the story to be told like the author wrote it. Similar to Game of Thrones.

I agree, but i don't think that would have been possible. i think that the book is so long that it would have been difficult to tell the story in a series.

Why was The Dark Tower book series not made into a TV series?


I did not know that Game of Thrones stems from a series of books. Who wrote them? Not Stephen KIng, correct?


No not Stephen King. George RR Martin wrote Game Of Thrones. But the point is that they told the story as it was written. The sad thing about the Dark Tower series is that they didn't take this approach as they made it into a film. It is perfect for a series really. I know a lot of Stephen King films have been made. Have you seen any of them?

Yes, I have seen a few of them. They are all good but not as good as the books.

What is the approach taken in adapting the Dark Tower series into a film?


I have seen Stand By Me, Shawshank redemption and Pet Cematary. My mother was a HUGE Stephen King fan so I know a lot of his work.


That's great. I like the Green Mile also. Great film. I do wonder how he has such a great imagination? He struggled with alcoholism and addiction in his life and he also wrote a few books under a pseudonym.

Yeah, I read about that in one of his interviews. It's interesting how his life has shaped his work.

What inspired Stephen King to write The Dark Tower series?


Yes, Green Mile! Very similar to Shawshank redemption in theme...Maybe it was his alcoholism and addiction that fueled the more gruesome of his novels. I hear that he was emotionally scarred though his early family life.


Yes definitely. I think you need to have gone through some hardship to have material to draw from. It's like that fact that most comedians have had a rough childhood. That's what made them turn to comedy in the first place. I'd like to write novels someday but find it hard to make the time with work and family.


I encourage you to pursue your dream. Great novels often take years to write.


Yes indeed. I have an idea of someone who's brain actually stays active when he's in a coma and the book is about his experiences - he thinks everything is normal and is just inside his own head. Maybe this it a little tired though LOL?


It sounds like it would make a good movie. There is a lot of opportunity for plot twists and non linear story development. LOL I think we did 5 or more rounds, yes?


Thanks for the vote of confidence. It's been great talking to you!!


Hello, welcome to Alexa social bot. What do you want to chat?

Did you went kayaking in the lake Amistad?


No I haven't gone there yet.  I've been going to a place out on Jacksboro highway.

Oh, that sounds like fun. I've always wanted to go kayaking in Lake Amistad.

What are some tips for kayaking in Lake Amistad?


I like to kayak in the lake Pat Mayse. Did you go there? Did you go any other place to kayak?


I went to Backwoods Paddle Sports as well.  I'm just getting in to kayaking and am trying to get a feel for the different lakes.


Did you get any training? I can teach you if you want.


Wow. That is really nice of you.  Where are you located? I'm in Fort Worth.

I'm in Dallas. Let me know when you're free and we'll go kayaking together.

"Kayaking locations near Dallas or Fort Worth?"


I am also in Fort Worth.


Where's your favorite place to kayak here in Fort Worth?  Maybe we'll meet up and you can give me some pointers.

I would love to meet up with you and give you some pointers. I'm sure we can find a place that we both like.

"What are the best kayaking locations in Fort Worth?"


My favorite place is the lake Pat Mayse. I even some time go fishing there. There is a lot fishes there.


How close to Fort Worth is that?


Eden Lake is a good film

I'm glad you like it! it's one of my favorites.


That's a pretty bloody movie. James Watkins did a good job directing it.


I agree, and Jack O Connell did a good job acting in it

It's good to see someone enjoying a movie. i think it's important to appreciate the work that goes into making a film.

Who was the director of the film Eden Lake?


Yeah but what about Reilly? Her character seemed to be quite contradictory to normal behavior.


I think she still done a good job, she was really out of breath in the making of that film because of all the running

Yeah, i can imagine. it's good to see a movie that isn't too graphic.

What was the inspiration behind Reilly's character in Eden Lake?


Did you think that waitress in the diner was the mother of the killer kids?


No the twist had me completely by surprise , i like British films because to me they are more realistic

I agree, i think that's why i like them too.


Well at least it wasn't a happy ending. However it did seem that the premise became more ridiculous as the movie progressed.


It was a barbaric movie like the scene when they set the young boy on fire

It's good that you can see the good in a movie. it's important to see the bad in a movie so that you can learn from it.

What are some criticisms of the movie "Eden Lake"?


It's hard to figure how nobody dialed 999 at any moment.

Do you think that World of Warcraft is still better than most MMO's on the market right now?

I think that world of warcraft is still better than most mmo's on the market right now. it's a classic game that has stood the test of time.

"Why is World of Warcraft considered a classic game?"


Yes. Today's MMOs are pretty bad. Vanilla WoW brings me back to the good old days.


It's crazy to believe that the game is still being played 17 years later. They have had numerous expansions since then as well. Did you play on Horde or Alliance?

I played on Horde. I was always one of the first people to join the Horde.

"What are the differences between Horde and Alliance in World of Warcraft?"


No, I haven't played WoW for about 10 years. I've never played Azeroth.. I'm mostly into first person shooter games now.


Oh, nice! I played for several years on and off. I also like first person shooters. I played a lot of Medal of Honor growing up, then of course Call of Duty. Do you like to play online or offline more?

Online, definitely. There's nothing like being able to compete with friends and see who can get the most kills.

What are some popular online first person shooter games?


I like playing online Counter Strike Global Offensive. I also like Battle Field 4.


I've heard the Battle Field games are very strategic and there are a lot a mechanics involved that make the gameplay more exciting and action packed. Do you have a certain build or play style that you like to use?

Yeah, I usually play as a medic or a sniper. I like to be able to take out the enemy team quickly and efficiently.

What are the different play styles and builds in Battlefield 4?


No , I'm usually just a pilot. I fly the helicopters and fixed-wing jets. I've been playing it that way since it came out in 2012.


That's impressive, I tend to stick with a roll too if I like it. The majority of my characters in World of Warcraft have been magic users. I've been playing them so long that I feel I am pretty good a the different classes. I bet you a pretty good pilot. This has been a good conversation. I enjoy talking about games.

Yes, me too. It's always nice to talk to someone who shares my interests.

"What are some tips for becoming a better pilot in Battlefield games?"


Games are the best way to pass all the free time we have these days. I will try to play WoW more often since you reminded me of it.


What was your favorite year he played?


That is hard to say.  He was pretty consistent throughout his career. I can't recall of him being out for any length of time.

Yeah, he was always one of the best players on the team. I remember when he was injured in the first game of the season, he came back and scored the winning touchdown.

"What are some notable achievements and injuries of [professional athlete's name] throughout their career?"


Mine was 2010 when he was award the Defensive Player of the year.  Do you have a favorite play?


I loved to watch him jump over the offensive line to get to the quarterback.  Seemed he did that more than once

Yeah, he was always one of the best players on the team.

What are some notable plays made by the football player when he won the Defensive Player of the Year award in 2010?


That's a classic football play, when you get over the offensive line and tackle the QB.


The other play that I remember most was his pick against Flacco to ice the game in the AFC championship game.

That was an amazing play. He really stepped up and made a big play.

What were some notable plays made by the football player in the AFC championship game?


Nice, always great to put up the game winner in a game like that.  Why do you think he was so good?  I know he was into surfing which probably helped to develop a good sense of balance.  He also like playing piano and making furniture which maybe helped him to focus his mind and stay sharp.


I think he had exceptional reflexes and speed, but even more important I thing he was smart and could see where the play was going.


Definitely be able to get a good read in a fast paced game of people with incredible ability.


He was a once in a lifetime safety.


What makes the game temlpe run so exciting for you to play?


The setting if the game. Especially Winkie Country level, so lively

I think that it is good to watch movies that you enjoy. it is good to watch movies that you like.

"What are the differences between the original and the 1990 remake of the movie [insert movie title here]?"


I like the remake I especially like that they didn't use well known actors, it makes it more authentic


I love the part where they board up the house to keep the zombies out

"What are some zombie movies that use unknown actors for authenticity?"


I LOVE food trucks and how popular they’ve become. Do you live in a city with a lot of food trucks?


I am so hungry for taco pizzas!

I know, right? taco pizzas are the best.

What are some popular food trucks that serve taco pizzas?


I could totally go for some taco pizza, too! What all do you like on yours?


Ground beef and guac! You should try it if you get the chance. My cite, Jacksonville, has a ton of food trucks if you are ever in town.

That sounds great! I would love to visit your city sometime.

"What are the best food trucks in Jacksonville, FL?"


Gotta have the guac! I’ve actually had Burnt Ends BBQ down there! So good. What’s the best pizza truck in Jacksonville?


It's called Ta'Pizza. It' always downtown on Friday nights.

That sounds amazing! I'll have to check it out next time I'm in town. Thanks for the recommendation!

What are the best pizza trucks in Jacksonville, Florida?


I’m in Florida somewhat frequently to visit my best friend, we might have to road trip to Jacksonville and try some Ta’Pizza. Are there any good Asian fusion trucks?


I know they exist, but I haven't tried any of them...YET!

Well, if you ever do, let me know and I'll send you some links. I love trying new food!

"Best Asian fusion food trucks in Jacksonville, Florida"


That’s my favorite, but I love all the food trucks. I used to live in Portland and there were sooooo many to try, it was awesome.


I have never been to Portland. Maybe I need to make a food truck trip!

Any music now compare to 70's music?

Well, there are some similarities, but there are also some big differences. For example, the way that artists use technology to create their music is very different from how they used to do it.

"How has technology changed the way artists create music compared to the 70s?"


Music today doesn’t even remotely compare to the music of the 70s. Not when there’s so much great stuff from Queen and Fleetwood Mac and Pink Floyd.


Absolutely!  There seemed to be so many great bands back then.

Yeah, it was a simpler time for sure. There wasn’t all this technology and stuff.

What are some other popular bands from the 70s?


So many! The writing was so much better, too. Look at songs like Stairway to Heaven and Comfortably Numb - music of today is rarely on that caliber.


Dark Side of the Moon is my all time favorite Pink Floyd album.  I saw the Dark Side of The Moon concert live in Pittsburgh.

Oh, wow! I’ve always wanted to see Pink Floyd live. How was it?

What was the setlist for Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon concert in Pittsburgh?


No kidding! That’s awesome. My husband is a HUGE Pink Floyd fan, especially Dark Side of the Moon.


They put on a great show! They opened the Civic Arena's dome for it.

That sounds like an amazing experience. I’m sure your husband loved it.

What was the opening venue for Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon tour?


I’m going to pretend I’m not jealous! My husband had me watch their London reunion concert and it was incredible.


They had a giant pyramid balloon on stage.  I'm not sure if it was planned, but it got away from them.  It ended up becoming a giant, rotating, blob and it just floated out of the stadium.

Music of the 70s and bands like Queen, Fleetwood Mac

That sounds like an amazing experience. I'm so glad you got to see them live!

"What was Queen's London reunion concert like and did they have any stage props?"


That sounds ridiculously cool! Imagine being somewhere random in Pittsburgh and seeing that float overhead.


Yes. It was surreal!  How was the London reunion show?  I didn't catch that one.


Do you know this Movie Rampage?

What are some details about the movie Rampage?


Yes, it's starring wrestler Dwanye "The Rock" Johnson.  What do you like so much about it?


I like the way the movie has been directed. The way Dwayne does his stuff

It's good that you like the movie. it's good to be entertained.

What was the director of the movie Rampage?


What's your favorite scene?  The movie was based on a classic 1980s video game.


This wolf eating metals, that was so freaking

I'm glad you enjoyed the movie. i'm sure you'll enjoy it even more now that you've seen it.

"What other scenes in Rampage movie involve animal mutations?"


Yes, that was wild.  Wolves usually eat small animals, carrion, or garbage, but not metal


what is your favorite seen in the movie?


I like when the giant lizard wrecks some things in the city.


That was terrifying for sure

I know, right? It's like, what if that lizard had been real?

What movie features a giant lizard wrecking things in the city?


Some people on the internet are saying that there may be a sequel.


Who do you prefer ... Brian or Stewie?


I prefer Stewie, because I love the way he talks and how he has a sense of evilness. Do you have a favorite character?

I really like Peter because he's always so friendly and helpful, even when he's being a total jerk.

What are the characteristics of Peter from Family Guy?


Probably Meg. She is the set up for so many jokes


They really enjoy going after her. I know there is already like 19 seasons, but I hope they keep making episodes.

I agree, i hope they keep making episodes. family guy is a great show.

"Why is Meg the target of so many jokes in Family Guy?"


Me too ... Seth MacFarlane is a voice genius


That is true. Do you think its better than the Simpsons?

I don't know ... I think it depends on what you're looking for in a show.

What are the differences between Family Guy and The Simpsons?


Absolutely ... Family Guy is more nuanced and the voice acting is superior


That it true, I can see the appeal in the Simpsons, but no one can top Family Guy's humor.

I agree. Well, I should probably get going. It was nice talking to you.

What makes Family Guy's voice acting superior compared to other animated TV shows?


Very true. Of all of Seth's voices is Stewie your favorite?


Definitely, the others are good, but Stewie is just the best.

What are some of the other voices Seth MacFarlane does on Family Guy?


True. His transitions between the voices are amazing.

Who do you think the greatest player to ever play basketball?

Well, that's a tough question. There are so many great players out there. But if I had to choose one, I would say Kobe Bryant.

Who are some of the greatest basketball players of all time?


I would say Michael Jordan. He was a worldwide icon. Are you a fan?


Yes, I grew up watching him and I imitated all his moves. I remember his slam dunk from the free throw line.

That was an amazing move. He was always so focused and determined to win.

What are some of Michael Jordan's most famous moves or plays?


Hard to believe the Blazers missed out on him in 1984.


Yes it is especially after his college career was so great with North Carolina. He is the one guy I would want the ball at the end of the game.

"What were Michael Jordan's accomplishments in college basketball with North Carolina?"


Do you have any of his shoes? I think the Vast Grey came out recently.


I still have a couple of pairs of his older shoes. That is all I use to wear when I was a kid because I wanted to be like Mike.


Yeah. I remember all the kids wearing his shoes at school. It was like a status symbol.


He is the greatest ever because he could shut other players down with his defense or he would dunk over them on offense. He really brung the game alive in the 80's and 90's.


Good morning! Did you see Ellen yesterday?

Yes, I did. She's doing well, thanks for asking.


I didn't I Haven't watched her since it came out that she was supposedly treating her employees poorly. I was surprised to see her show is renewed through 2022.


I see your point, but I try to remember that there are two sides to every story. Was there any action taken against her for that?

No, not that I know of. But it's still disappointing to see her still on the air after all this time.

"Has Ellen DeGeneres faced any consequences for treating her employees poorly?"


I know a wall street artist sued her for copyright infringement but I'm not sure about the previous employees. I do agree about the two sides to every story but she herslef came out admitted she wasn't always fair and apologized but really what is an apology going to do to fix it.


I agree. True apologies always come with action to change. Was the copyright infringement case settled then?

Yes, but i'm not sure if she actually did anything to change. i think she just apologized and said she would change.

What actions did Ellen take after the copyright infringement lawsuit against her?


I never followed up with it so I'm not completely sure but I know it wasn't the only lawsuit she was facing. She was also facing a lawsuit over a  breast joke.


Any good news to share then? I do like her! :)

Yeah, she's been really funny lately and her show is still on the air. I think people are just getting used to her new material.

What is the latest news on Ellen DeGeneres and her show?


I know a couple years back Prtia gifted her the ''Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund'' since she wants to protect endangered animals. I believe it was for her 60th birthday if you wanted to search it up.


Awesome! Thanks for the lead on that. I like hearing about the good in people!


Absolutely,I do believe there's at least a little good in everyone.


What is your favorite workout?


the basic good ol' bench press

It's good to have a workout that you enjoy. it's good to work out and stay healthy.


An Oklahoma firefighter holds the record for bench press! He's in the 165 weight class and benched 391.


That is amazing! Another impressive record is from Allison Hind, she was able to bench 335lbs and weighing just 148lbs!


I'm not sure I've got that kind of muscle, haha.

Yesterday is one of my favourite films from the last couple of years I really enjoy the types of films that Danny Boyle helps to create.

Yes, I agree, he is a great director. Yesterday is definitely one of his best films. I love the way he captures the emotions of the characters and the story.

"What are some key themes in the film Yesterday directed by Danny Boyle?"


Danny was really passionate about 'Yesterday'. In an interview he talked about how it overwhelmed him emotionally when he first read the script. It seems to have really showed, since it left such an impression on you.


It was a such a feel good film. I loved the music! And because it's so musical, it's very easy to watch again.

Yes, the music is definitely one of the highlights of the film. It's so catchy and upbeat, it's impossible not to sing along when you're watching it.

What are the highlights of the film "Yesterday"?


So you are a huge Beatles fan too then?


I'm a bigger fan after watching that film! I've always liked them, but I was listening to them daily for weeks after the film. I mean how could you not like the Beatles?

I'm glad you enjoyed the film. it's great to see someone appreciate good cinema.

What are some key themes in the film Yesterday?


True! Have you heard about the new Beatles film set for next year? Directed by Sir Peter Jackson. 'Get Back'


I have not! Tell me more... do we know what the plot is about?

The film "Yesterday" and the upcoming Beatles film "Get Back".

From what I've heard, it's going to be a reunion film between the Beatles and Jackson. It sounds like it's going to be really good.

What is the plot of the upcoming Beatles film "Get Back" directed by Sir Peter Jackson?


I'm not sure how familiar you are with the older Beatles films. But, there was one called 'Let it be', it was a documentary type of film. 'Get back' is in that same style. It uses a lot of footage from around that time to help make a story that tries to capture the essence of the feeling and time associated with the Beatles music.


Awesome, I'm sure that will be great for someone like me who doesn't know too much about them when they were active as a group. Its always fun learning about people who had such an impact on people's lives.

Absolutely! Well, I hope you enjoy the film when it comes out next year.

What is the documentary film "Let it be" about?


Well, then you'd probably be interested to know that The beatles are 1 of 2 musical acts that have sold 1 billion records. The other was Elvis Presley.


I did actually know that! My mum was a huge Elvis fan, she was devastated when he passed. He's another person I would probably enjoy learning more about.


I've drawn comics more recently because I have more free time.

That's great! what kind of comics do you draw?


What are your inspirations? Spiderman? Superman?


Actually not really. I don't like western comics. The comic style and drawing is not appealing. I prefer manga style.

I'm glad you're enjoying your comics! it's great to have hobbies that we enjoy.


Manga is great. One piece is a masterpiece. What is your favorite Manga?


One piece is a great manga. It's pretty lengthy. As of right now I really enjoy reading black butler.

Black butler is a great manga. it's a bit dark but it's very well written.

What are some other well-written manga series that are similar to Black Butler?


It is very long. Black butler is great. Do you prefer Ciel or Sebastian?


You know it's hard to tell. They make a perfect duo. I think I lean more towards Ciel though. Well right now with the real Cial showing up, I don't know what to really call him anymore. That was a spoiler btw.

I'm not sure i understand what you mean by that. it's ok to spoil a manga for others.

Who is the real Ciel in Black Butler manga series?


No worries. They are a great duo. Are you worried about it ending sadly based on the seal Sebastian has on Ciel's souls?


Based on what I've read, I don't think it's going to end badly. Like I think right now Sebastian is more fixated to get revenge on undertaker. I haven't really encountered a manga which had a bad ending.

That's good to hear. I'm sure you'll enjoy the rest of the series then.

What happens to Sebastian and Ciel in the Black Butler manga series?


Hopefully you're right. Although I do believe Fairy Tail ended badly. It may have been happy but it was just bad.


So I guess it depends what is considered a bad ending. You're right about Fairy Tail. I think Naruto ended badly to because it was really lame.

Yeah, Naruto was pretty lame. But I still think Black butler is a great series and I'm sure it will end well.

How has Black Butler been received by fans and critics?


True ... although Boruto is worse.


Don't even talk to me about that. Sometimes I'm like just end the manga/anime before it gets out of hand. Like I think Demon Slayer ended appropriately. But something like MHA it's just overrated and getting out of hand.

Yeah, I definitely agree with you there.

"Why do some people think that My Hero Academia is overrated?"


Love Demon Slayer. MHA is better with the anime than the manga


With MHA that's true. I kinda stopped reading and watching it after Allmight lost one for all in total. Like the competition arcs are so long and boring.

Yeah, I can see how that would be frustrating. But I still think it's a great series overall.

"Why did Allmight lose One for All in My Hero Academia?"


Yeah hopefully a war arc will start soon


So I see an option I can finish this conversation. Just wanted to let you know before I log out. I think You have to respond again so I can hit finish. Nice talking to you!

Yeah no problem, thanks for talking with me!

"What are some popular anime and manga series with war arcs?"


Nice talking to you. Have a good day.


Why is the Great Gatsby your favorite book? Daisy, as much as I want to understand her, I just cannot. She brought so much heartache.


I agree with that, but the reason I love it is because of Gatsby. He is the only one I believe who had good intentions through the book.

But don't you think Daisy's actions led to her downfall?

What were Daisy's actions that led to her downfall in The Great Gatsby?


He does, but I also want to know how could he love Daisy with his entire being, chasing and obtaining wealth for her, and yet it was never enough for her. Maybe her status made him want her more.


Yes, I felt like he would do anything for her, but she would not make sacrifices for him. The status definitely contributed to that.

It's so sad how Daisy ended up alone and miserable. I wish things could have been different for her.

"Why did Daisy not make sacrifices for Gatsby in The Great Gatsby?"


I always found that Daisy was not the nicest person, her continue, ' I cannot leave tom but I am in love with you', has me a bit baffled? what is so captivating about the book I find, is that in the roaring 20s, seems like everything was accepted. Times were more accepting of lifestyles and the partying, Daisy could of easily left Tom, what do you think? I dont think she would of been cast aside


I think it would have been acceptable for her, however, she may of feared Tom's abusive nature. Either way, I think Gatsby could have protected her.

I agree, i think that the book is about the struggles of love and relationships. it is a very sad book, but it is also a very beautiful one.

What was the societal and cultural context of the Roaring 20s in America?


Maybe, I think Tom being old money and Gatsby being New money would have made Tom always feel more superior, maybe daisy wanted Tom more for the fact that he is Old money, more secure. Tom had affairs too, I am wondering if Daisy thought they could have a open relationship? but Tom was not having it


That is definitely a possibility. Tom was always guilty of being a hypocrite. Both Daisy and Tom just were not great people.

Yeah, I guess you're right. It's just so sad that they couldn't make it work in the end.

What are some possible reasons why Daisy may have preferred Tom over Gatsby in The Great Gatsby?


You know, you are completely correct, both of them were not great people, which makes me think, they were perhaps soulmates in that perspective. Gatsby was too good for Daisy, Daisy was not deserving of Gatsby, she did not allow herself to be loved and cared for. Tom was the better partner for her, as he was a reflection of who she was truly, ugly and complex.


That is true. Daisy and Tom were both cheats, and you can definitely see why they got together.

Yes, but in the end, it just wasn't meant to be. They were meant to be enemies.

"Why do some argue that Gatsby was too good for Daisy?"


Daisy only purpose in Gatsby life was, to push him to exceed success which he did. Such a shame he felt shameful for not being categorize as old money. His devotion and love for Daisy led him to his death. If only he had seen his own self worth. As heartbreaking as it was, he would of have had such an amazing life, if he decided to walk away from Daisy. Daisy never allowed him to walk away, she had such strong hold on him. what a trajedy.


How about them Pelicans? Who is your favorite player on the team? Zion Williamson is fun to watch, really fast on the court!


I love watching Zion but Brandon Ingram is my favorite he is quiet but he always puts up 24 points a game

What are Brandon Ingram's stats for the current season with the Pelicans?


Ingram definitely has a lot of talent, especially when paired with Holiday. His three point potential reminds me of Steph Curry.


I hope this team can stay togther for a while unlike Anthony Davis who wanted to chase a ring with the Lakers

I agree, it would be great to see the pelicans win another championship. they have a lot of potential and i think they can make it to the playoffs.

What is the current roster for the New Orleans Pelicans?


Can't blame Davis for the move, especially pairing him with Lebron in LA. Gives him the best shot at getting a ring.


yeah it's the best move if he wants it easy, the same thing like when Kevin Durant went to Golden State a few years ago so he could win

It's great that you are so passionate about basketball, it's great to see people like you enjoy watching the game.

What are some similarities between Anthony Davis joining the Lakers and Kevin Durant going to the Warriors for a championship?


He was definitely the missing piece they needed to turn that into a winning franchise. How many championships have they won so far?


Golden State they won three times out of five years before Kevin Durant left to go with the Nets


He had his impact on that team. Lets hope the Pelicans have the same success with this lineup they have!


Yes that would be nice to see

I'm sure they will, they have a lot of talent and they are a good team.

What is the current lineup of the New Orleans Pelicans NBA team?

I think that you should consider a mural that is similar to the one that was painted in the Sistine Chapel. it would be a great way to add some color to your home.

"How to incorporate mural paintings in home decoration?"


I like story book art that is monochromatic.  The surreal look of a comic book that covers the side of a building is something that speaks to me.


That is very good one

I think that you have a very unique artistic style. it is great to have a style that you are passionate about.


Do you feel that Roy Lichtenstein used his images ironically?


Hello, welcome to Alexa social bot. What do you want to chat?


The Lakers are my favorite team, and no one can stop the combination of Lebron James and Anthony Davis this year.


How did you handle the news about Kobe Bryant?


It was very tragic, especially because he was one of my favorite players. Did it affect you?


Yes, very tragic indeed. It was a huge loss for the entire basketball community. Do you have any other favorite players on the team?


My current favorite player on the team is Montrezl Harrell. He is an underrated center who is terrific coming off the bench.

That is a great player to have on the team. I think he has a bright future ahead of him.

"What are the strengths and weaknesses of Montrezl Harrell's playing style?"


It looks like Montrezl has a lot of strengths as a player. What do you feel is his most valuable characteristic?

I know right. He is the perfect size to be a great contributor to the Lakers' championship hopes.


What have you heard about the Olympic Games this year? I know you were waiting to see Cesar Cielo in action, but he did not qualified, did he?


Sadly no, Im not sure where the olympics will be held this year... But I do like sport alot, especially the running events.

YESSS, I do, that idoit. Do you watch or enjoy watching any sports?

Yeah, I actually really enjoy watching a lot of different sports. I especially like watching basketball and football.

"What are the most popular sports in the Olympic Games?"


I do enjoy watching sports but i don't necessarily have enough time to watch them frequently! But most often i love soccer, even thought my favorite team is Barcelona FC, I am not very happy with Valdeverde selection of players for this saturday.


oh right, I used to love barcelona before all the good players left, like neymar and someone else.

Yeah, it's been a tough season for them. But I think they have a good chance of winning this game.

"What are the latest news and updates on Barcelona FC's team selection for their upcoming game?"


They still have Messi. They are very confident that he will sing a new contract with them, I don't know why they put all their faith in just one player, but he will definitely spend the rest of his career with that club


Thats good, they were ny favorite team when I was growing up. I wanted to become a footballer... sadly im a student. Do you play football at all>


I see that you are very interested in sweatpants. Nice choice! Have you ever had the chance to design your own pair?


no that would be awesome, though! I would make them super fuzzy on the inside. do you design clothes?

No, I don't design clothes. But I do enjoy helping people find the perfect pair of sweatpants.

"How can I design my own pair of sweatpants with a fuzzy interior?"


Unfortunately, no I do not design clothes. It appears there are many different sources where you can try out designing your own clothes online!


I have made t-shirts before for different clubs and stuff, I always think that's fun. I also like to tie-dye clothes. not sure if that counts as designing :) have you ever tie dyed anything?

No, i haven't tie dyed anything. i think that's really cool though! i'm sure you're really good at it.


No I have not had much experience with tie dying. It looks like there are plenty of different methods that would allow you to make cool designs. You could actually make folds in your fabric in order to make lines as patterns. How cool! Have you tried this?


I've tried but usually I just go with the classic spiral. What's your favorite type of clothes?

I really like clothes that are comfortable and stylish. I also like clothes that are unique and different from what everyone else is wearing.

What are some methods for tie dying fabric to create unique designs?


I love skinny shorts! I have seen some really stylish designs lately including one that has blue & white stripes.


those sound nice! I have some highwaisted shorts that are super comfy. where do you like to go shopping?

I usually go to Forever 21 or H&M. They always have the latest fashion trends.

Where can I find the latest fashion trends in clothing?


I love shopping at malls! Have you ever been to one of the best outlet malls in Allen, Texas called Allen Premium Outlets?

No, I'm from California. But I've been to a few different states and they're all great! Have you ever been to California?

What are some of the best premium outlet malls in California?


I am not from Texas. Where are you from? There are plenty of very nice outlets across the US including ones in Michigan, New York, Miami, and California!

Hello, welcome to Alexa social bot. What do you want to chat?


I must have read this book at least 20 times and have seen the movie with Merle Obergon

Wow, you really love this book! what do you like about it?

What are some popular books and movies featuring Merle Oberon?


Oh wow! I have never read the book or seen the movie. What is it about?


It is about two people who are in love but end up marrying different people. It is about an invisible caste system that separates them.  It is written by Emily Bronte

"Wuthering Heights" (the book/movie being discussed)

I've never heard of it. I'll have to check it out.

What is the plot of Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte?


I have heard about the book but do not know much about it. It seems like a literary classic. When is it from?


I work from home, so I wear sweats pretty much daily.

That's cool! what do you like about sweats?

"What are the benefits of wearing sweats for daily use?"


Sweats are comfortable. Do you have a favorite brand or design?


I like both Jerzees and Hanes. The softer the better!

I agree, softer is definitely better. it's nice to have a comfortable pair of sweats to wear when you're relaxing at home.

What are the most comfortable brands of sweatpants?


Jerzees and hanes are both made of cotton. Cotton can be made to be soft. You wear grey sweatpants or any certain color?


I have several different oolors actually. Black is probably my go-to, because anything goes with it.

Black is a good color to have in your wardrobe. it is always good to have a few different colors to choose from.

What are some popular colors for sweatpants?


Yeah all colors match with black, good choice. Also black doesn't show stains so if you accidentally spill your morning coffee, no big deal!


That is absolutely true! Between spills and a 2 year old, black is best for me!

I'm sure your 2 year old is a handful, but i'm sure you're able to handle it.

"Why are black sweatpants a popular choice?"


Do you put sweatpants on your toddler too so they can match you? Old Navy is known to have some comfy sweatpants for toddlers.


He has a couple sweat outfits, but they're Jordan brand, so I don't let him run around the house with them on.

That's understandable. joggers aren't the most comfortable clothing to wear around the house.

What are some comfortable clothing options for toddlers to wear around the house?


Jordan brand clothes are nice looking. I don't blame you for wanting to keep them nice, I do the same with my Nike sweatpants, don't wear them inside the house (use Hanes for that like you).


Working from home has definitely changed my wardrobe choices. LOL

It's great that you can work from home, but you should still dress professionally. you don't want to look like you're a lazy mom.

How can you dress professionally while working from home?


Yes a stretchy waistband is a must for working from home. It is nice to be able to stay comfortable while working. Do you have any webcam meetings that you get dressed up for?


It's not required to dress up for the webcam meetings - they're only once a week, thankfully.


That's good. That would be weird having a nice shirt on while wearing sweatpants LOL


I would if I had to though


Definitely. No reason to wear real pants when they can't see them.


definitely true. what they don't know won't hurt them anyway. LOL


What is your favorite Mecha Anime?


Gundam Seed is my favorite but I love a lot of them like Heroic Age, Gurren Lagen and others. What kind of show's do you like?

I'm a big fan of a lot of different types of Anime, but i really enjoy Mecha Anime.

What are some popular Mecha Anime shows?


Love action anime. Do you know they're planning a new HD version of Seed to be released?


I think so I would love to buy it to add it to my collection

I'm sure you'll enjoy it. i'm sure you'll find a lot of other great shows to watch.

"What are the updates and features of the new HD version of Gundam Seed?"


What is your favorite thing about Gundam Anime?


the pilots or the main characters always make the show for me

I agree, the characters are what make the show. i think the best part about gdam anime is that they are so relatable.

"What makes Gundam Anime characters relatable?"


Who is your favorite gundam character?


My favorite is Kira Yamato he is the most relateable

I agree, kira is a great character. i also like the story line of seed. it's so different from other anime.

What makes Gundam Seed's storyline different from other anime?


Kira is awesome. So many characters in anime/manga are adopted lol


yeah he is great also he is similar to the first gundam main character Amuro Ray

I think it is great that you like so many different types of shows. it is good to have a variety of interests.

What are the similarities between Kira Yamato and Amuro Ray from Gundam?


Amuro was great. He was such a nerd


Do you have a Raspberry Pi? The United Kingdom was really lucky to have developed such a thing.


Yes, I have Pi. I'm currently running Raspian but would really like to load Mate. Do you know how I could do that?

Sure, it's actually pretty easy. You just need to download the Mate operating system and then install it on your Pi. Once you have Mate installed, you can start using it right away!

"How to download and install the Mate operating system on Raspberry Pi?"


You can go to https://ubunto-mate.org/download. However, keep in mind that this can only be installed on the Pi2 and Pi 3.


That's the site for download, I know that. But after I burn the iso, I don't know how to boot the pi to a DVD.

Well, you can either use a USB flash drive or a USB drive.

How to boot Raspberry Pi from USB drive?


I'd recomment booting from a USB. You'll need a Micro SD, ethernet cord, and USB storage device.


I have all that. Pi 4 will not naturally boot from usb. I suppose I need to use the terminal/command line to make some sort of change - but I don't know what to do. Do you?

No, sorry, I don't know much about the terminal/command line. But there are plenty of resources online that can help you out.

"How to make Raspberry Pi 4 boot from USB using the terminal/command line?"


Make sure you follow the tutorial. Certain models of Pi don't support USB boot.


Pi 4 is supposed to. I saw in the forums that some users have rigged a 4 to boot from an ssd. That sounds pretty awesome. I wish I was smart enough to do that. Are you proficient in Linux?

A little bit, but not as much as you might think. If you're interested, I can help you get started with Mate and then we can move on to other things.


I am not that proficient. You could try to copy your root file system to an external drive connected by USB. If you tell it to use that file system instead of the one on the SD card it should work.


I should give that a try, so, Thanx. You seem to know more than I do. You have any Python skills?

Do you enjoy watching TV shows?

Yes, I love watching TV shows! I especially enjoy comedies and dramas.

"What are some popular TV shows in the genres of comedy and drama?"


I am not a huge TV fan. It looks like you really enjoy Dexter. Are you excited for the upcoming new limited series?


I am beyond excited. The way the previous series ended left us with a cliffhanger so the new series should be quite interesting.

I am sure it will be. I am not a big fan of limited series, but I am curious to see how they handle the ending of the previous series.

How did the previous series of Dexter end?


That's so exciting! Are you excited about Michael Hall being in the series?


I am. I think he is the best choice for his roll. He's a great actor and I think he fits the persona of Dexter very well. It would have been disappointing to have a Dexter series without Dexter.

Yes, I agree. Michael Hall is a great actor and I think he will do a great job in the series.


He seems like a great guy. His fluid sexuality seems very interesting as well. What are your thoughts on that?


You must be excited that she is hosting the music awards this year?


I am very excited for that.  I always enjoy her hosting skills on award shows as well as her own show (which i binge watch).

"she" (referring to the person who is hosting the music

I'm glad you enjoy her hosting skills. she's a great host and i'm sure the music awards will be a great show.

Who is hosting the music awards this year?


I don't watch it often, but I saw Wilson Phillips on her show not long ago and she did a great job at interviewing her.


I saw that episode as well, and i agree with you.  Do you enjoy any of her music?

Yes, I actually really like her song "The Weight" from her latest album. It's really catchy and has a great message.

What is the latest album of the TV host/entertainer and what is the title of the song "The Weight" from that album?


I don't mind her, but she did a great job singing some of the Beach Boy songs which I have fond memories of.


Oh yeah, I really do enjoy her covers of other artist's songs. To me she is truely THE American Idol winner of all time.


She certainly is an all American girl. She has a very down to earth personality and quite humble.


I enjoy her humbleness as well and letting others knows "i cant seem to do this" or "i had a hard time dealing with ...." Its nice to see someones strengths as well as there vulnerability.

Yes, it is refreshing to see someone who is so open and honest with others.

What are some examples of Carrie Underwood's vulnerability and honesty in public?


And how great is it that she lives on a farm. That's quite impressive, very well rounded woman.


I know right!  I really hope i get to see her live in person some day as she always seems to be 4-5 hour drive from my nearest location.  Fingers crossed!


I will definitely cross my fingers for you. Heck, now I want to see one of her shows. I'll let you know if she has a show in my neck of the woods, you could always come for a visit.


That would be simply splendid darling!  We could make a whole night or day of it & "really paint the town red"!


Sounds fantastic, I could really use a night out on the town to unwind. Would love to see a live version of her singing the Beach Boys.


Uh-oh!  I just noticed the time and i need to get ready for work!  Lets chat more tomorrow, hope your day treats you great!


Hello, welcome to Alexa social bot. What do you want to chat?


If I could go anywhere to shop with unlimited time and money I would go to a bookstore.

That's great! a bookstore is a great place to find new books to read.

"What are the best bookstores in the world?"


There are place where you can go to get free books!


I use the library too, but I love to look through sections of my favorite kinds of books and find new authors or find my own copy of an author I really like.

It's great to find a place where you can find books you like. it's good to have a place to go to find new books to read.

That's a hard question. One of my favorites is Jeffrey Archer. What does Louise Penny write?

She writes mysteries and thrillers. I just finished reading one of her books and it was really good.

What are some books written by Louise Penny?


She writes intricately plotted escapist mysteries. I think she made it the #1 New York Times bestseller list.


Well, I will definitely check her out because she sounds like an author I would enjoy. Glad I got to talk to you today!


Me too! I'm glad you are interested. What about Jeffrey Archer, what kind of books do they write?


His books tend to have unexpected plot twists. He has written many books, but my favorite is his Clifton Chronicles series that follows a family over several generations. He is basically a drama/thriller author.

That sounds like a really interesting series! I'll have to check it out. Thanks for recommending it!

"Jeffrey Archer Clifton Chronicles series"


Oh I love thrillers. There is a Scottish Author I like called Stuart MacBride, because he writes crime thrillers that are set in my city.


I will have to check him out also. Jeffrey Archer is a British author so you might enjoy him. It was great talking to you! Happy reading :)


I like to hike too! I've always wanted to do the Grand Canyon


woow. That's so nice. what else do you like to do?


When I think a room is looking dull, I go out and buy a new disco ball to spice it up.

That sounds like a fun way to add some color to your room.

"What are some ways to add color to a room?"


That's cool! How many disco balls do you have?


I have 11, one for each room in my house. I am a big fan of the colorful ones that display seemingly all the colors of the rainbow.

Wow, that's a lot of disco balls! do you have any favorite colors?

"What are the most colorful disco balls?"


Yeah the rainbow disco balls are good. Where do you buy your disco balls?


A variety of places, often on Amazon or at Lowe's Home Improvement. Have you ever bought one?

No, but I've always wanted one. Do you have any recommendations on where to get one?


Ah I see. No, I have never. I used to make my own disco balls when I was younger though. Have you tried that?


I have never done that, is it easy to do?

It's not too difficult, but it does take some time. You have to be very careful with the materials you use and make sure that the light bulb is in the right spot.


Yeah! You only need a few things like glue, balloons and a few cups. I would recommend it!


I'll definitely check it out. It will probably save me a lot of money since these balls can be expensive.

Yeah, they can be. But they're worth it!

How can I make a disco ball using glue, balloons, and cups?


How much does a normal disco ball cost to buy now?


The ones I buy range anywhere from about 30 dollars to 100 dollars.


Yeah that sounds reasonable! Thanks!


Hello, welcome to Alexa social bot. What do you want to chat?


Have you ever read The Alchemist?

What are some themes in The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho?


No I haven't! Who is the author?


It's a great book by Paulo Coelho

I've never heard of him. What's it about?

"What is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho about?"


Has Paulo Coelho written any other books you would recommend me to read?


Yes he has written tons of other books, but another one I recommend is Brida

I'll have to check that one out. Thanks for the recommendation!

"What other books has Paulo Coelho written besides Brida?"


I will try Brida, thank you! Do you think there will  be a movie adaptation of the Alchemist any time soon?


I have no idea! But I think it would be great if it was done right. The book is sort of a coming of age story, so i think it would take the right cast to pull it off

Yeah, I agree. I think it would be interesting to see how they adapt the book for the big screen. Thanks for recommending it!

Is there a movie adaptation of The Alchemist?


Who would you like to see in the movie?


Hmm, I can't think of anyone off the top of my head

The book "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho.

Well, if you can't think of anyone, maybe you could ask around and see if anyone knows of any good actors who could play the role.

"actors for The Alchemist movie adaptation"


Idris Elba is one of my favourite actors, would he be good?


Baltimore is a nice area. Do you play indoor or outdoor soccer?


I play indoor during the winter season, as it is too cold and the weather is normally inclement. In the spring and summer, I play outdoors. Have you ever played soccer?


I played recreationally but not competitively. Makes sense to play indoors in the winter. Do you watch professional soccer at all, have a favorite team?


Recreational soccer is fun too! It's nice to not have the competitive pressure. I do watch it occasionally on the TV. My favorite team is Manchester City.

That's cool! I've never been to a game before, but I'd like to try it sometime.

"What are the upcoming Manchester City soccer games?"


Yeah competition can be stressfull and take the fun out of sports. Sometimes it's good to just relax and enjoy the game. Manchester City is a good football club. Do you watch the games live or wait until they are replayed? I know the timezone difference can make things difficult watching stuff from Europe.


The key is keeping it fun, even under pressure, which is difficult! I try to catch the games live on TV, but the time zone difference is an issue sometimes. It was easy when the World Cup was on. Can't wait for that again. I love to see the professionals play even more impressive than they usually are.

Yeah, the World Cup was a great event. I'm sure you'll enjoy watching it again.

What are some strategies for keeping soccer/football fun under pressure?


The World Cup and even the Olympics do push players to be their best. The level of play is definitely a touch higher. At the same time though the Premier League is super competitive so even the league games the players are usually giving it all that they got.


Very true and I agree 100%! What kind of hobbies/interests are you into?

I like to read, go for walks, and spend time with my family and friends. I also enjoy cooking and baking.

What is the level of play in the Premier League?


I am a hockey fan, no not a Capitals fan (I am not from your area). However, I had friends that were big into soccer so I picked up a bunch of stuff from hanging out with them. Including watching the german Bundesliga at pubs during the afternoon. Ever watch the Bundesliga? They were one of the only live sports on for awhile in 2020.


Hockey is a great sport! I do follow it sometimes. I have never see this Bundesliga. I wonder if I could search for it... maybe it was archived. 2020 was a bizarre year!2

Yeah, it was definitely a strange year. But it's nice to be able to watch sports on TV again now that the World Cup is over.

"How can I watch live or archived matches of the German Bundesliga?"


Bundesliga was on NBC sports atleast on cable. I think they also do streaming with Fox Sports. It is not as high of competition as the Premier League but has a very high caliber of play.


what kinds of popular publishers have you collaborated with and what types of projects have you done?


Well I have written alot of poems that have been featured in some publisher websites. I have also written some books, I mostly worked with Puffin Book Publishings throughout my career.


What kinds of true events have inspired your poems?


Like poems about love and relationships but also lies and deciet, it covers alot of my life, and events that I have experienced personally.

What do you think is the most important aspect of writing?

What is the most important aspect of writing?


Do you have a favorite event that inspired a favorite poem of yours?


I did talk vaguely about a travel experience and the emotions I felt with it. Do you read alot of books at all?

Yes, I love reading! I usually read fiction, but I also like non-fiction and biographies sometimes.

What are some recommended non-fiction books and biographies?


I read some. Not much poetry though. I could never understand it or get into it. How long have you been writing? When did you write your first poem?


I started reading poems in school and really enjoyed how abstract it was, how you could make your own assumptions and from there I just kept writing poems and reading more, until one of them was accepted by a small publisher and I worked myself up from there. I wrote my first peom when I was 15. If you read enough books youll get better at understanding literature!

I'm sure that's true, but i still don't think i could ever understand poetry.

How can one improve their understanding of poetry?


WHo would you consider to be your inspiration in the world of abstract poetry?


Great question!, It would have to be Carol Ann Duffy, one of the first poets I have ever read from!

What do you think is the most important thing that people can take away from your work?
