FAIRPORT New York(Weekly Hubris)—February 2021—I have never been so happy about, or riveted by, a presidential inauguration as I was on January 20, 2021. And I wasnt the only one . . . er, thing . . . celebrating.

Perhaps some moves executed by unexpected dancers will help us shake off the negative orange dust of 2020. If you dont yet know what Im hinting at, allow me to enlighten you with this offering from the folks at Boston Dynamics.

I have genuine optimism that 2021 will be a better year than 2020. If frolicking helps, let the dancing begin!

He attended St. Bonaventure University, earning a BS in Computer Science, and then worked in the hi-tech world. In 2002 he turned his creative energies to product development and video production with the release of his first independently produced products. When the demand for web site design and freelance writing increased, he once again switched skill sets . . . to writing and web work. An avid or, to be more accurate, rabid, disc golfer, he may often be found chasing plastic while in pursuit of the perfect round on a disc golf course, or designing and developing disc golf products for Demogrid.com. He says he tries to find the humor hidden in everyday experiences, because, “life is too important to be taken seriously.” (Author photo by Tim Bayer. Author Head Shot Augment: René Laanen.)

    Boy, that is amazing. I remember when we were thrilled by exhibitions similar to this, but infinitely clunky and herky-jerky by comparison. Here, I kept looking for the body inside.
    How the heck do you program that flexibility!
    Fun, too.

    Hi Jean,

    Yes – the robotic technology is impressive. I have been closely watching advancements in robotics for many years. The specific advancement that I am looking forward to is auto driving cars. I have a direct connection to automated cars via my stepson, Sean, who works for Nuro. Nuro already has no-human involved, autonomous delivery vehicles operating right now!
