Johnny Killmore as a “brand” isn’t really a brand. It’s job is to say “this is who I am and what I do, collaborate with me.” It does that job, but the identity isn’t the same as a brand. I’ve been…

Russia Turns To Motorcycles In Ukraine
Read more: Russia Turns To Motorcycles In UkraineWhile it’s common for militaries of the world to use motorcycles, they are normally used in small numbers and either for courier work behind the lines, or by small teams conducting special operations.

Talking To The Copilot: A.I. Insights On Passion
Read more: Talking To The Copilot: A.I. Insights On PassionGenerative A.I. continues to improve almost daily, and I’ve been using it as a tool to shorten the path between question and answer. It’s strength is in doing the 20-minutes of internet searching I would do, then summing it up, in about 10-seconds. I don’t expect it to actually have opinions or to figure anything out, but it really surprised…

Prowling and Ghost Towns: Desert Doings
Read more: Prowling and Ghost Towns: Desert DoingsIt’s interesting how things unfold. It feels like nothing has happened since the last update, though quite a few things happened.

It was eventually used by an article called “The Big Empty,” which shared photos of how empty things were during the pandemic and lockdowns.

The 2025 Post
Read more: The 2025 PostAnother lap around the sun for planet Earth. Deciding where the beginning and end of a circle are is a bit more than I’d like to fathom at the moment, but the beginning of a new year is always a good time for reflections. I don’t see reinvention though, but an apt time to simply look at progress, goals, check…

Keep Them Doggies Rollin’
Read more: Keep Them Doggies Rollin’Sense of accomplishment is a funny thing. We can get it from summiting a mountain or fitting into our pre-Christmas skinny clothes. Really, who cares where it comes from? The main thing is, things must be getting checked off whatever list is in our head, or we wouldn’t likely feel it. The last two weeks though I’ve had one main…
