re : "bug season vs winter"
Yesterday it happened again. The flower pail beside the front door had shed it's fake decor into the howling wind. Once again I tucked my shirt into my pants, pants into my socks, socked feet into boots , and waded thru knee deep snow, waist deep plants, to retrieve the gaily plastic fakery.
Then I did a tick check. Because in this part of the world there is no off-season for those buggers. No joke.

I recall hearing from when in my 1970’s Computer Lab in college about from a recent at the height of the Cold War attempt at computer automatic translation from English to Russian language. You really wanted to get the understanding of what each diplomat said is correct in those times. The computer geeks chose a famous excerpt line from Matthew 26:41: “The spirit is willing but the body is weak”

In English: “The spirit is willing but the body is weak.”
Computer Translation English to Russian: “Водка хорошая, но мясо испорчено.”

As a check, retranslate the above from Russian back into English:
The computer spit out: “The Vodka is good, but the meat is rotten”

We are all lucky to still be alive.
