Despite Helene’s rain finding its way, we had 24 Guys at rehearsal and all seemed to enjoy the evening. Many thanks to Bill, Chris and Paul for their efforts in Jimmy’s absence. Next week we kick off our preparations for our Christmas Show slated for December 7th. Please be inviting men to sing with us (like in the photo). We’ll also be putting finishing touches on our Fall convention set. At worst, we’ll come in third in Gadsden! Until next time, KTWWS! Steve Grubb

So far we have 2 requests for a Quartet to sing Carols for free for someone with a medical condition restricting "getting about". Members, please let me know of anyone like this who you might recommend. The date is Saturday, December 14.

Planning to have one Quartet ready to sing 10 times that day. If we get perhaps 5 member requests we will offer free Caroling for past Valentines patrons until we get 5 yes replies.

Please text at 423 310 5334 or let me or Pete know at rehearsal.

I did not have a photo for this week's newsletter so I decided to try Photoshop's AI for the first Christmas Chorus picture. You describe an image with words and let Photoshop generate it, and the image above combines three images using these search words; 50 year old man on phone, home office (could have combined these), and speech bubble.

I don't know how they did it, but look at the hand where it joins the arm and you see an artifact. They are not artificially generating the image but are finding appropriate sub-images in a large database and piecing them together. Not so different from the typewriter where, say for a script font, connectors were added to individual letters such that a typed word looked like it was written with a single stroke. Photoshop's connectors are many times more sophisticated. Steve Wixson
