Hal


This image reminds me of Hal 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey which I watched last weekend.  How crazy is it that science fiction has now become science fact and artificial intelligence is now science reality.  Let’s hope they want to keep us humans around.  I don’t think they are out to get us.

Halloween Town Trick or Treaters. A Halloween Town tavern keeper.  Halloween Town priests.
