Monkey in a Pink Canoe… Again Why Parents Don’t Try to Explain the Birds and the Bees to Their Kids

December 30, 2024

Talking about “the birds and the bees” with your kids is the parenting equivalent of assembling IKEA furniture without instructions: frustrating, bewildering, and destined to leave someone in tears. Whether it’s deciding the what, when, or accepting that you’re in way over your head, parents often end up turning a teachable moment into a full-blown train wreck. Inevitably, the result is a muddled conversation that leaves kids with more questions than answers and parents contemplating their life’s choices. But why struggle through this yourself when you can outsource it to ChatGPT? In revisiting my 2017 article, Monkey in a Pink Canoe, I’ve tapped ChatGPT to help lighten the load, by…

The Great Writing Revival How AI Makes Writing Fun Again

December 27, 2024

Back in 2018, I penned a blog article titled, “Is There a Book in You?”— a piece brimming with insights about the craft of writing and publishing your first book. While much of it remains as solid as the day it was originally written, over time even the most resilient evergreen articles can start to feel a little… wilted. And let’s face it. Writing and publishing are no cakewalk. The industry has changed dramatically since 2018. Fortunately, the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT offer exciting new ways to “spiff up” your past work. In this article I’ve given my original article a 21st-century makeover using custom ChatGPT prompts. These…

Romance, Red Flags, and Ridiculousness Match.com’s Most Outrageous Profiles

August 28, 2024

I first dipped my toes into the unseemly world of online dating back in 2011, with my true story, “Expelled from Match.com.” I was blown away by how many prospective “matches” inflated their dating profiles to land a first date. In the introduction, I wrote, Last year I enrolled at Match.com using the pen name of “MrMarvelous” just to see if there was anyone out there as desperate as I was to meet their perfect mate. After blowing off an entire day’s work perusing the women within 100 miles of my zip code, seven major metropolises, and all of the neighborhoods I’ve ever lived in, it became readily apparent that…

Unlock Your Creativity AI Tools for Stunning Visuals

August 27, 2024

I’ve been a rabid fan of AI and ChatGPT since it hit the masses. As someone who’s also crafted award-winning humor for over 20 years, I’m always on the lookout for a “magic bullet” that will help inspire my next piece. What many people don’t know is behind every great humor yarn lies tons of research, a healthy helping of incongruity, and a bit of visual flair to drive home the message. ChatGPT is perfect for all of them. With the release of ChatGPT 4.0, DALL-E has become an essential tool in my creative process, alongside other multimedia tools like Hedra, Faceswapper, CGDream, OpenArt and even SUNO for music. Whether…
