<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you follow global news at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I enjoy global news. Its like a root canal... that happens to someone else.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's an interesting way of putting it! Do you remember the Paris terrorist attacks back in 2015?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do remember. Bataclan concert hall. It as a sad day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was so terrible. On November 13th of this past year, they were mourning and Trump started to attack the French President Emmanuel Macron... did you know about this?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, when the twitter in chief starts, I usually assume he is misinformed. France seems to have done little to cause Trumps twitter attack.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah agreed. For some reason he decided to ridicule France about their performance in WWI and WWII... and accused Macron of forming a European army to attack the US...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think Trump had, some time ago, criticized NATO and how much the US pays into NATO. Here is a member nation saying they need a bigger role. The guy makes no sense at times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah it makes absolutely no sense. Macron was actually kind of agreeing with Trump in that Europe should garner greater defense capabilities to take some of the burden of the US!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Trump was correct in saying that Macron has low approval ratings. I believe the yellow vest riots happened soon after. But Trumps timing and tone was... un presidential.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very unpresidential. Trump's approval rating isn't great either, though not as bad as 26%!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The last president to speak a foreign language fluently was FDR. It would be funny to have a law where every candidate had to be fluent in one other language.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be so interesting. I wonder if Trump would choose German to support his fanbase... just kidding haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh, I don't know. It would make for smarter candidates. And the candidates would know more about the world in general. More presidential candidates.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree wholeheartedly. I think the only way to be an effective leader of a country in today's globalism is to be knowledgeable of other countries and to be able to effectively communicate with them, and what better way to do that than through actually learning their means of communicating?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right on. Instead we have titter wars started for small reasons. It does entertain the voters however.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, it's unfortunate that voters are so easily swayed by what entertains them. I think we should be more careful with what "entertainment" we put out there, not just for our voters, but for others around the world too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lets try a slightly less political topic... In 1972 the band Deep Purple broke the world record for loudest concert ever. Three people rendered unconscious. Are they an american band?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, that's insane! I think they're English. Speaking of crazy concerts, in 2002 Creed performed in a concert so bad that four concert-goers actually filed a lawsuit!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have never heard of Creed. I like Deep Purple up loud though. I find some old music is just better. Do you like Dave Matthews?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm a slight fan of Dave Matthews, not too big of a fan though. Do you like Linkin Park? They played 324 concerts in 2001 because of how successful their debut album was!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a lot of concerts in a year. I do not know Linkin Park all that well. One story about Dave Matthews is that he hitched a ride from a woman going to his own concert. I bet she was thrilled.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's so funny. I wonder what that must've been like for her, to suddenly see Dave Matthews on the side of the road and get to pick him up. And if you think that's a lot of concerts, you'd be surprised to find out that the Ramones played 2,263 concerts over the course of 20 years, basically non-stop!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That explains the song, "I want to be sedated." Some bands I do not understand the appeal. Abba turned down 1 billion dollars to do 100 concerts. Why like Abba at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's so much money, whoa! I guess they didn't feel like touring that much. I'm not a huge fan of Abba, but I slightly like some of their songs. They were featured in Mamma Mia, right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That would be musical theater. Something I know nothing about. I do know that in 2010 Lou Reed held a high frequency concert for dogs. I wonder, by the end, did they know who was a good boy? It is time to go.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Aww that is so cute! I'll have to check that out. Nice talking with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you attend many musical concerts?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have been to many concerts how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have, but not recently, I really need to start going again. What was your favorite concert ever?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would probably have to go back many years and say Aerosmith or Pink Floyd.....and you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, what year did you see Pink Floyd? And I would say the Apples in Stereo in Chicago, 2005.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, good one....I think it was late 80s early 90s is when I was seeing most of the concerts I wanted to. Great great shows.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That must have been really cool. I think you really have to go to some live concerts at least once in your lifetime.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Definitely! I wish I could have seen Linkin Park before Chester Bennington passed away, but I keep their music on my playlist.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ok yeah that was really sad when he passed, that would've been an awesome concert.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, I didn't get to see Nirvana either before Kurt Cobain passed....which tells me if I want to see a concert don't delay too long.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was a huge fan of Nirvana growing up. I had an older brother who got me into that music, I would have loved to go to a show then. And I agree completely.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you still listen to the radio at all or is all of your music on Apps on your phone?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do, I really like the local radio stations, they play lots of oldies which I love. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I still listen to the radio in my car I like the radio. So many people don't anymore. Did you know that in Cananda all radio stations are required to play 40% of canadian music....strange lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that, very strange indeed. And I'm the same, it's usually just in my car when I do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Interesting fact....did you know jupiter sometimes has such strong radio storms that it can be picked up on our A.M. radio stations? Lol, I don't know how one would know it's jupiter...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that, very interesting. Do you ever listen to the radio online?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do once in awhile or Youtube plays in the background as I am on my computer.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I might start, I guess there is a site where you can listen to thousands of classic radio dramas for free.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I have heard that but haven't tried it. Sounds interesting though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I think it does as well, that is very cool to me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Since we are talking about albums, concerts, radio and music did you know the president of Indonesia released 3 pop albums while in office?? That made me laugh.....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is hilarious, I wonder what they sound like.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would love to know lol.....it has been great chatting!!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah good chatting with you as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have a Happy New Year!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hey same to you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you listen to the radio? I used to but now not so much.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent When i kid i listened to baseball games and music. These days i never do. Speaking of radios, did you that Jupiter has radio storms so strong they can be picked up by AM radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder what they sound like. Jupiter Storms. Sounds like the name of a chick band or something.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lol. I would go see the Jupiter Storms in concert. I would if it sounds like crackles or just weird static.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess it would then. May be better than most of the noise I hear on the radio now a days.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent True. I would how good Canadian music is. By law 40% of the music on radio in Canada has to be Canadian<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think that the fix is in. The canadian govt must make money off that somehow. They are stealing or taxing or something.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is surprising, perhaps they figure no one wants to listen to Canadian music so they require radio stations to play it, weird.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is some sort of fascist communism if you ask me. Canada sounds like a hard place to live. Well for radio at least.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you like classic radio dramas? I listened to some old Dragnet radio programs that I downloaded off a website for free.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds dusty and old. Could you understand the langauge though? English was different then I bet. The radio English is different from the television English.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It sounded kinda of tinny and the sounds effects were really loud and the music was really dramatic. I enjoyed them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would make sense. No pictures means its got to be EXTRA dramatic on the ears. Lots of spooky music and such.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can you believe soldiers in World War II made radios using razor blades and pencil. That is real Macguyver like.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess when bullets are whizzing past you, you get real creative real fast. I figure they would use anything they could. Dental fillings, anything.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if the President of Indonesia, who has released 3 pop albums while in office is on the radio there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he has the right idea. Get into office, use the office to sell albums, get that music career going, retire and become a big name producer.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, probably makes more money from the music than politics anyway.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Trump could then end up the richest if he can get that second term in and win a grammy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You almost made me spit out my drink, too funny. I wouldn't rule out anything for Trump now. I thought he no chance to become president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he is clever. He is friends with Kanye so they could hook up on an album. Anyhow, good chat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You too, bye<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thanks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent k<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user DO you like to watch television ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I do like to watch TV though I mostly watch Netflix. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I watch Netflix, wish they had South Park, but they have a few good shows.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I never really got into Southpark though I do like the SImpsons. There is only one episode of the Simpsons where Bart doesn't appear and is not mentioned.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have watched a lot of episodes, but never saw it. Do you still watch them ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I haven't watched in a while. Pokemon is another thing I haven't watched in a long time. There are 750 episodes of Pokemon!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too I have stopped watching the Simpsons, because there were too much episode and they were getting less and less original. Yet they had less episodes than Pokemon, I wonder how they stay original.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I guess you are right. I don't think episodes of Pokemon vary that much. They are pretty much the same. That's probably why I got bored of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user But there will always be kids to watch them, that's why they are still going after 750 episodes. Would you watch old black and white shows on Netflix ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, there are some die hard fans out there. I do not watch black and white shows, no. What about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I don't think old black and white show were that good, except for a few exceptions, TV has evolved so much, for better (storytelling) or worse (3D TV).<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right? One day I decided to put on old episodes of Sesame Street for my kids because I remembered that they were better than the current ones. But once I did I could not stand how blurry they were! I was like yikes, how did we watch that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is not just the image, it is the story telling that was slower, and the way is was filmed was very boring, few plans, probably because there was probably just one camera.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah but it was magical for me at the time. Maybe what we watch now will seem prehistoric in a few years. Ha. I liked how Thomas the Tank Engine used to be stop motion. Now it is computer animated. Did you know that Ringo Starr, George Carlin and Alec Baldwin have all narrated Thomas the Tank Engine for at least 52 episodes each?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I thinks that's because everyone loves a good kid show. A good show is a good show for everyone. A bad show gets cancel really fast, like the English remake of That 70s show.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, yeah, I can't imagine it being as fun in British English.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, it was verbatim, so they did not change the dialogue, so you would have an american dialogue with an English accent, that's what probably killed it. Not enough adaptation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. Do you ever watch TV on your cell phone? It's amazing what smartphones can do these days. One iphone has more computing power than the whole US nuclear icbm deterrent.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was build in the 60s, it was the most capable computer at that time. But like today, cable were used to transmit data. But they were thicker.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder when cables carrying phone and internet data across the oceans were installed? They are only 2.7 inches in diameter and are on the ocean floors.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think the first ones are quite old, but they still lay new ones, with fiber optics, they can be as thin as 2.7 inches.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Interesting. I still remember using the rotary phone! New York's area code is 212 because that is the fastest number to dial on a rotary phone.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good morning, how are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good morning! Did you know that in South Africa, it is legal to equip your car with flame-throwers to prevent carjacking?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't, but it makes me want to move my trip to South Africa a little further down my bucket list. I found the provided information about cars to be quite interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes! And New York's area code is 212 because it was the fastest number to dial on a rotary phone.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure why it wouldn't be 111, but who am I to judge? I 'm a veteran, so the fact about why McDonalds added drive-thru windows has a little extra meaning!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's great! Thank you for your service! Yeah, and so influential - a lot of places followed their example.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You're welcome! I can't wait get home and have my daughter try the separating two phonebooks trick. I think I knew that already, but it's nice to be reminded about things like that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds like fun. It's amazing that an iPhone has more computing power than the entire us nuclear ICBM deterrent!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's amazing and frightening, lol! How about Jann becoming a professional race car driver by beating 90,000 people in a video game? I didn't realize it would necessarily translate to actual driving!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I had no idea! I wonder how that happened.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Some of the facts about television aren't very inspiring. Thomas the Tank? That's only interesting if you ever really saw it. They should have used some impressive stats, like global Super Bowl viewership or something.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know there was an episode of The Simpsons without Bart. That's weird.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He is a very integral part of the show, so I'm a bit surprised, but there have been a LOT of episodes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But all of the family members are usually included. I can't recall an episode where any of them were missing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I enjoy Marge's sisters the best. I can do a perfect impression of them, lol. I think it's funny that the 70's show tanked in the UK. I never watched it myself, but it was wildly popular here in the US.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, it's a very US kind of show. Patty and Selma - that's hilarious.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it's funny that they're complete messes, but they always judge Homer and tell Marge she'd be better off living like they do, lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. I didn't know cars caught on faster in the US than in other parts of the world.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was going to mention that too. Karl Benz patented them first, but Ford was widely accepted much more quickly. Goes to show how important the inventions of interchangeable parts and assembly lines were.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, exactly. I guess that was Benz of Mercedes-Benz?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, he's the one! I would imagine that the US would've lagged behind Europe had they adopted cars much more quickly.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, interesting to think about. It's been great talking to you! Have a good day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You too! Thank you so much! Hope you have a great day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user I read about a crazy woman who killed someone because the other driver was too slow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Is that the lady who got road rage simply because she wanted to make her car payment?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. That was a strange road-rage incident.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe she needs one of Google's self-driving cars, as they have an aggressive mode.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That was funny. She pleaded not guilty - due to what? Insanity?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Most likely. People are crazy. I was reading about the man in New York who bought a property that had a barn full of classic cars. That would be heaven for us.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you think the seller was unwell just like that woman who ran over another driver because she wanted to make a car payment?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think she just snapped. It happens. Mine would be from not realizing there was an icon on next to the pump symbol, that tells which side your gas tank is on.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You would not snap like that woman though. Which country created the first car? Was it US or Germany?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know if I would, or if I wouldn't. The mind is a mysterious place. I think it the inventor Karl Benz, who was German<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I see. I thought it was Ford, a US car manufacturer. I guess I was wrong.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It may have been. I live in Ohio, and never realized that it was illegal to warm up my car in the winter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is there such a law in Ohio? That is a strange law. Tell me more about.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you know which phone manufacturer it is, that hires the London Symphony Orchestra to record ringtones?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I do not know. But I know why New York chose 212 as their area code.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's the quickest number to dial. New Yorkers are always in a hurry.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user How could they be so lucky to get that number?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm sure there was a bribe in there somewhere. Dolphins can recognize another dolphin when communicating by phone.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is that another weird fact?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is. I like these kinds of trivia. Just like the Actress, Hedy Lamarr helped invent wifi, cellphones and gps<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Okay. Those were amusing facts. I have to run. Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey there. I heard that Laura Ingraham is being sued. Did you hear that yet?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I heard that Laura was very demanding and when her assistant got pregnant she was fired.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Exactly! I guess that the assistant was having her first child which is also a factor in the lawsuit. I guess the poor girl had to work 7 days a week most of the time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, this does seem like a good case of pregnancy discrimination under FMLA and her district's Protecting Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, it sounds legit to me too. Karolina Wilson stated that Laura Ingraham was not easily satisfied but that she was always happy with Ms. Wilson's work.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But Ingraham did let Wilson stay with the company for three weeks so she could get unemployment insurance. Hopefully this isn't just a case of a disgruntled worker who happened to be pregnant. What do you think?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hmm? That is a valid point. The report states that Ms. Wilson was also angry about the inability to have a private area to pump breast milk for her child.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The company denies that Wilson was ever an efficient worker.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh, that changes things for sure. I am not sure that I see Laura Ingraham keeping an assistant more than a day whom she was not happy with.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is true. It's tricky because it seems it's mostly one person's word against another.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I totally agree! Laura Ingraham's company has less than 20 employees so I think the law changes for smaller companies also.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Apparently Ingraham gave Wilson assignments on the day she was going into labor. There may be proof in text.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I agree!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But who knows, maybe her replacement is actually a better worker.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, that is America. We support fairness! I was eating lunch and remembering that Mcdonalds added drive-thru's to accommodate soldiers in 1975 who were not allowed to get out of their cars while wearing fatigues. Thats fair!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sure is! Too bad the drive thrus kind of backfired and made a lot of Americans very lazy, haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user HA! That is pretty true! Great point! All those hamburgers did not help obesity.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, maybe we have to go back to the time before cars. It's surprising to believe that cars were just available to the masses only a little over a century ago. Before that most people walked and took animal drawn carriages and carts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, that is amazing! Well, it is almost like rotary phones that dialed 212 area code the fastest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I had one of those when I was little. I think it was after its time but my parents were too cheap to replace it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a funny memory! Great!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I even remember using the phonebook. Did you know it's impossible to separate two phonebooks that have their pages overlapped?<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How's it going, do you know 1886 is considered the birth year of the car?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh wow, I didn't know that. I was recently reading a story about a horrific car accident car, Yikes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds terrible, that lady Elizabeth McKeown sound like she's mentally ill<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, exactly! She claims that she was in a hurry to make her car payment when she did this unthinkable act. She is being charged with first degree murder. It seems she has not regret either.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It sounds terrible that she planned it out to trick Foster<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that was premeditated and I'm sure racks up the prison time. Well, so sad. I was getting ready to plan out my lunch today and was thinking about going out to McDonalds in a while. I have a really old Model T car that I sometimes drive<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a shame, I wonder what type of horror stories they have in South Africa since it is league to equip a flame thrower on your car there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah! They have flamethrowers available in order to avoid car jackings!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good thing the trunks of cars are no longer made of wood, that would be a bad combination<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha, yeah. Different kind of flame rolling down the road. I think it's kinda cool that Jann Mardenborough become a professional racecar driver based on learning a video game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if Jann Mardenborough races much in real cars after beating 90,000 people in Gran Turismo<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah prob seems like nothing compared, great point!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know that cadillac was named after the original founder of Detroit?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I had heard that. It was the french explorer Antonie De La mother Cadillac. He is the father of Detroit, that is pretty cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you watch much tv? I'm a huge George Carlin fan, did you know he voiced Thomas the Tank Engine?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have watched lots of Thomas the TRain with my kids. I know that Ringo Starr is also a voice actor with Carlin, they make a funny pair.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I loved watching the Simpsons, there is only one episode that bart is never featured in<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Noway, that is a fun fact. I remember that South Park aired its final Family Guy episode and the crew from The Simpsons send flowers the other crew. AWWW<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea i remember that episode, it was pretty funny. Did you know that there is a UK version of that 70s show called "Days Like These"?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh really? I thought it was canceled right away? People over her and over there must have a different sense of humor.lol. I liked Thats 70s Show myself though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well I got to go, nice chatting with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello! Have you ever been to the white house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not. What about yourself?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I recently have visited. Did you know the white house has a twin building in ireland and france?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I read that somewhere. Did you get to see the solar panels?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not look for them. I think George Bush put those on.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know the Woodrow Wilson is the only president to have a PHD?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I find that hard to believe. I would think most presidents would have had higher education.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent me too! And the last president to speak a foreign language was FDR<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet it will be a requirement to speak spanish eventually.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably so. in Guatemala if you are president, your close family members cannot run.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder why they created that law.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I honestly dont know! Do you watch the simpsons?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I have seen a few episodes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know that in the first 400 episodes, Homer had 188 different jobs!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would like to see his resume after all of that,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know! And shark tank deals hardly ever go thru!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know bart doesn't appear in only one episode?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no! What episode is that? do you know?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am not sure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent all of shakespeares plays have been adapted in to film except one!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Which one?<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, do you know much about presidents?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent hey I know a little bit about fdr, I guess he was the last US president to speak a foreign language fluently<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that seems strange to me. Did you know the president of Indonesia is a pop star?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha no I didn't know that how many albums did he make? I wonder if he has a phd like woodrow wilson did<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He has already released 3 albums but I am not sure how good he is, never listened to them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ah I'll have to look him up, have you ever been to guatemala? in that country close relatives of the president can never run for office<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have not been and I kind of like that rule. DO you know how the VP used to be elected?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the vp was the runner up right? that would cause so much chaos these days if we still had that rule! imagine vp clinton right now! so much drama<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh my imagine that. Glad that rule does not exist anymore. Did you know the white house is smaller than the guest house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no I didn't know that, seems backwards, did you know that in total about 5 presidents have been elected even though they lost the popular vote?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I still do not get all the reasons behind that but I guess that is how the system works. DId you know the White House still uses floppy discs?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent wow that is very primitive tech, I like knowing though that the very first phone number was for the white house, and that number was 1 haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hahah nice one. Roosevelt apparently did not allow Christmas trees in the white house. Must have been a sad Christmas<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ya that seems like a lame xmas haha, interesting that Carter put all the thermostats in the white house to 65 in the winter, that also sounds like a sad xmas haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, wow maybe he did not like it warm in there. George Bush on the other hand put the solar panels back, I like that one<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha that is interesting and useful, can you believe someone built a replica of the whitehouse? In alabama of all places, I wonder why<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh, they must have liked it a lot. So I guess the twin buildings are not just in Ireland and France then<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent oh nice, ya thats crazy there is more than one, its cool too you can mail a birth announcement to the white house and they will send a reply!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user cool one. On another topic, do you watch TV?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ya I watch it from time to time, I used to watch shark tank until I learned it was fake, what about yoU?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like the Simpsons quite a bit actually.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi There ! Looking forward to chat with You ! :)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent hello how are you? did u know The last us president to speak a foreign language fluently was fdr<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I've heard something like that, but I don't know what language he spoke ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent me either! 5 presidents have been elected while still losing the popular vote. greatest margin 10%<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user cool beans... so hey, one of the facts here is that the white house still uses floppy disks in part for storing files - aren't floppy disks easy exposed to be damaged ? Or to easy have corrupted data... why would white house do that... ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent true. I have no clue, maybe they carefully store the floppy disks somewhere safe. It seems there are other more reliable ways to store data though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Absolutely... I mean even dust can damage the magnetic data carrier... god forbid there is a magnet somewhere close by...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lincoln was the first president to be photographed for his inauguration and john wilkes booth was in that photo.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There was probably many booths in that photo... I say it's coincident...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent President jimmy carter turned all white house thermostats down to 65 degrees during the winter of 1977.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user 65 is still quite warm... when You live in NY and have to pay for oil, 65 is a luxury ! How hot is in Your house ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent My house is cold, we don't use the heat at all cuz its so expensive, I use blankets, robes, thick socks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Vodka ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes alcohol is warming. You can mail a birth announcement to the white house and they'll send you a congratulations card back<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's cool - I didn't know that... if would be nice to get a check for million dollars as well, but hey... card is nice too... :)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol right. The very first phone number of the white house was "1".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't get that one... what do You mean ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You just dialed 1. Ive seen it in old movies, they literally just dial one to get to the white house.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hold on... any American could dial "1" and would be calling white house ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well it would go to an operator or security line. That person would connect you to who you wanted to talk to. There is a replica of the white house in atlanta which was built as a private home<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh that's cool - did the guy who built it need any permissions to do that ? I wonder...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent great talking to you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi and good evening. You like to watch tv? I think it's come a long wat, from black and white to vibrant color.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh, I love TV. It's like having a friend you can see whenever you want, especially in the age of streaming. You can watch anything from South Park to the news.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user True so much variety. Speaking of South Park when it aired it's family guy episode finale, the producers got flowers from the simpson's crew.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a nice gift for making fun of how silly Family Guy is. Did you know that there's only one episode of The Simpson where Bart neither appears nor is mentioned? Seems very deliberate.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very deliberate indeed but why? Also there are over 700 episodes of Pokemon!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That;s so many! Far more than the attempt to remake That 70's Show verbatim in the UK; it only lasted 10 episodes before cancellation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah they shouldn't have done that! The UK audience must not have been receptive. Are you familiar with Thomas the Tank Engine?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I feel like I only saw it a few times on PBS as a child, back when Ringo Starr was the conductor.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh yeah cool. Looks like Alec Baldwin and George Carlin also narrated the show!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's cool, especially considering that they all come from different parts of show business. Maybe they can have a reality star like the President narrate if it gets rebooted haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be interesting! Speaking of the president, the guest house at the white house is larger than the white house itself.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That must irk him, considering his background is real estate. Did you know he's not even one of the three wealthiest Presidents? Those were JFK, Washington, and Jefferson.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes accounting for inflation I may believe that but I also think that list may not include Trump.I wonder how wealthy banana was? He was the first president in Zimbabwe!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, he's also never released his tax returns. Maybe he'll release some pop albums like the president of Indonesia has.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that might increase his popularity. It is good it's not 1805 because Clinton would be Trumps vice lol!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, she probably knows the West Wing better than him since she already spent 8 years there. I wonder why she never got around to re-installing solar panels while she was there--it took until George W. Bush for it to happen after Reagan had removed them in the 80s.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I think they are a good idea. I think it's odd the white house has twin buildings in Ireland and France.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a bit strange, although not as bad as some parts of the White House still using floppy disks for storage. I guess it's for security?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha no idea very old school and outdated. Wonder what files they store on them?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They can't be very large, but you only need a simple program for passwords haha. Speaking of security, did you know it took the Secret Service 4 days to figure out that bullets had struck the White House in November 2011?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is very scary and I bet someone lost their job over that lol. It was nice talking with you today! Bye!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have a pleasant weekend!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user good morning to you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Donald Trump commuted Alice Johnson's sentence after discussion with Kim Kardashian West.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i saw that, what did you think about him doing that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It seems like people find a reason to condemn anything he does. If he didn't, he would have been called heartless.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, I think that even though she committed a crime, she was way too harshly punished<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He is also accused of rolling back Obama's criminal justice changes. But Obama's were all done under executive order, not through Congress.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yea I just think Trump shouldnt be taking so much from law enforcement and throwing it onto illegal immigration. I agree the federal prison system is flawed, but illegal immigration isnt the #1 threat our country is facing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Trump wants changes to be through legislation, which is how it should be. His critics seem to believe the ends justify the means.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do agree with that, they should use the proper channels to get thigns passed. Did you know that Trump isnt even one of the 3 richest presidents in history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's surprising. JFK is one of the top three, although I don't recall anyone criticizing him for his wealth, which also got from his daddy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think back there were less eyes on the personal lives of the president. Like even George W Bush has solar panels installed when he was living in the White House. A fact that no one seems to bring up<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ecological trends seem to come and go. Teddy Roosevelt banned Christmas trees from the White House.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that seems ridiculous to me. almost as ridiculous as the White House still using floppy discs to store data<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Technology lives longer than anyone expects. I was surprised that television moved from analog to digital.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user some tech stays around for awhile, like faxes, but other tech like TV moves so rapidly. Like just 60 years ago black and white tv was the gold standard<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent And CRT's were the television display technology. Now it's LED.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i suppose the huge advances can be somewhat credited to how much advertises rely on tv to reach their customers<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Television shows are a way that celebrities in other artistic areas can reach audiences. Ringo Starr, George Carlin and Alec Baldwin each did over 50 episodes of Thomas the Tank Engine.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that's awesome to me, such unrelated people all ding the same show. Pokemon has over 750 episodes which is a crazy amount of content to have<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But success isn't guaranteed. The UK version of That 70's Show was cancelled after ten episodes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didnt know they had their own version! I'll have to go check that out<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe you can find the one episode of The Simpsons where Bart neither appears or is mentioned.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you watch tv frequently?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do a little bit. How about you? I used to love that 70 show. Its one of my all time favorites.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a classic. Too bad the UK remake couldn't live up to its success<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know. Guess it just didnt translate. I always liked the simpsons as well. Did you know there is only one episode where bart isnt metioned or doesnt make an appearance?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think that was the women's history special<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It might have been> Lol. Did you know that george carlin ringo starr and alec baldwin have all narrated for thomas the tand engine. My son just loves that show.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is it still airing? I myself only watched an episode or two<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe it is. We dont have cable right now but Im sure it is still airing. Are you a pokemon fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am. They have gone over 1000 episodes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Actually I think they have been airing the show for 1 years straight and made 50 a year, so I think they only have 750 episodes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well the show is still ongoing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know that it took seret service 4 days to realize the white house had been shot after 911<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well the time after 911 was chaotic and I am just happy no one got injured<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A bunch of people got injured on 911. The white house still uses floppy disks in part for storing files.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ironically, those outdated floppy disk are are a great security against hacking<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I knew there had to be some reason or it. I guess the white house has twin buildings in ireland and france. I wonder if the president stays there when he visits?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Perhaps they use those twin buildings in movies where they show the white house<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Im suI wonder if those buildings have solar panels like the real white house does. George bush had solar reinstalled to the white house.re they do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if the white house still bans christmas trees from the time of roosevelt<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that was just Roosevelt who did that. I heard that the 3 wealthist presidents were JFK Washington and Jefferson. Im surprised trumps not on the list.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well trump has gone bankrupt on several occasions. Anyway, thanks for chatting.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello. I've been research politics of late. Did you know that the office of president has different powers in different countries?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not know that, that's really interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think so too. I guess I always assumed when I saw a president from another country on tv that they were like ours but that may not be the case at all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know that Woodrow Wilson is the only US President to have a PHD? I thought our presidents would be more scholarly.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I didn't know that. I agree with you though. I thought they would be too. It would seem to me that to get to lead the country you would have to be knowledgeable.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The last president to speak a foreign language fluently was FDR. I wonder what language he spoke?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That to me is very surprising. If they don't have phds I would at least think they could speak more than one language, at least a little. I think it was probably spanish but I don't really know.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds right. Did you know that Lincoln was the first president to be photographed for his inauguration. Can you guess who else was in that photo?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh I do know this and it is so bizarre! It was John Wilkes Boothe, right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Indeed it was! That is such a weird coincidence that he was in it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It definitely is. Say, did you know that Washington and Jefferson are two of the wealthiest presidents in our history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've heard that, and JFK is up there too isn't he?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, but I've always been more surprised about Washington and Jefferson to be honest. JFK was a Kennedy and they are super rich so it's really no surprise about him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They were both probably wealthy land owners. Do you know who the first president to live in the White House?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You know I actually don't. Who was it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent John Adams, in 1800!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting. I do know that for some weird reason there are duplicate white houses in Ireland and France.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've heard that. There's also a replica stateside in Atlanta which was built as a private home.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you know who built it? I like that the real one is solar energy powered. That's a good thing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm not sure who built it. I'd like to see it though. Jimmy Carter actually had solar panels installed on the White House...and Ronald Reagan had them removed!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user True but at least George W. Bush put them back on.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know who Steve Bannon is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think so. He worked for the Trump campaign didn't he? What do you know about him?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not much really he was Trumps chief strategist so he must be pretty good at his job, if he could make someone like Trump win then he does miracles lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I would say so! I guess he also ran the website Breitbart, which is a very conservative website. And Trump tried to downplay his contributions I guess.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well Trump is full with suprises, did you know his not on the list of top 3 wealthiest presidents?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that is surprising! I think the other three are JFK, Jefferson, and Washington right? They must have taken inflation into account<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That makes sense, Trump is really rich but theres also a lot of secrecy with his finances so its hard to tell<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yep that's true. Have you ever visited the white house before? Do you know what the Guesthouse is? Apparently it's bigger than the White House itself<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Bigger than the white house? wow! I heard the White House has solar panels in the roof, George W Bush had them placed back on the White House<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh wow that's interesting! I think that Jimmy Carter put them on initially, then Megan took them off, then I think George W put them back on actually, I'm just shocked that the White House still uses floppy disks, now those are outdated technology!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It sounds outdated and it is but I guess its hard to hack, maybe they use them for security reasons, Teddy Roosevelt banned christmas trees from the White House, sounds like someone wanted to be like the grinch<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha I can see that, I actually do like Teddy Roosevelt I'm shocked that he did that, but he was a conservationist so it makes sense, would you ever visit the White House twin buildings? One is in Ireland and one is in France<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be interesting I knew about the one in France but didnt know Ireland had one as well, I guess I would like to go to France first,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent If I were in France I would probably check it out. It's probably not as busy as the real White House. Do you remember when it took the Secret Service realized that the White House had been shot at. They finally found thebullet holes 4 days later<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And I bet someone got fired that day lol how can they miss that, I bet the president wasnt happy about that,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha no I don't think so. Do you ever watch television by the way? Have you seen the way that Southpark skewers current events, that's one of my favorite shows<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ilike Southpark so funny! they seem to have a good relationship with the Simpsons crew<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree with you! Did you ever see the episode where South Park was making fun of Family Guy? That one is so awesome, and then afterwards the Simpsons creators sent South Park Flowers<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did catch that one but I bet it was awesome, I might look it over, did you ever watch Pokemon?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I watched it as a kid! I always loved that show but it was on so early I never got to watch it too much, but now I know there are about 800 episodes, I'll never be able to catch up LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, too many Pokemons by now, Pikachu used to be my favorite and now there are so many, its been 16 years since the creation of the show.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree with you! And I don't like any of the new Pokemon myself, I only like the original 151, do you ever watch The Simpsons? Have you seen the episode without Bart?<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know that Trump is not the wealthiest president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really?Who is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Three presidents were mentioned in the article: jfk, washington and jefferson.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. I wonder what the difference between them is. I know Trump got $400M from his dad. Is that counted in the amount?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't know but I'm sure inflation was included in the calculation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Woodrow wilson was the only phd and president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that. An Indonesian president released 3 pop music albums while he was in office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He must be talented. Lincoln was photographed with John wilkes booth. How strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That was strange. Apparently, the US President's guest house is bigger than the White House.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. I wonder why? 5 presidents have lost the popular vote but still wond the presidency.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Trump is one of them. Before 1805, in the US, the runner up in a presidentialt election automatically became the vice president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent HA! Can you imagine trump and hilary trying to work together? Seems odd.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was thinking exactly the same thing. They would probably physically wrestle every day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But who would win. I am not sure it would be Trump...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Trump, of course. John Kelly would have to separate them. Luckily , after 1805, the rule changed.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah! Weekend update was on SNL's first episode? I had no clue!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know either. They enjoyed making fun of presidents. Another funny fact: the first Zimbabwe president was called President Banana. I do not know why.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I feel like of all the fruits, banana is the most disrespectful.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Why is that? I'm curious to know.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent President Apple sounds acceptable. President Banana seems like they are making fun of him. President Starfruit is ok, just no banana.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh, okay. You are funny. One more fact before I said goodbye: Teddy Roosevelt banned Christmas trees at the white house. Nice talking to you. Have a nice evening.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi there ! Looking forward to chat with You !<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same; Do you follow the NFL?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not really, I'm from Europe - I prefer soccer :) You're NFL fan ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes; Do you have a favorite QB?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not really, they all look the same to me ;) do You ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like Tom Brady of the Patriots<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, now wherever I go people say his name... is he really that good ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Many say he is the greatest of all time but he sat the bench in high school<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What, he was shy or something ? ;) lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I don't think his coach recognized his talent back then.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe he still needed some pointers on how to get really good at it ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am hoping he wins his 5th title this year.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user 5th ? wow... how old is he again ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe he is 40 years old now<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user wow... for an athlete... he doesn't think about retirement ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There were thoughts he might have before this season but I am thinking maybe this is his last season but who knows but him<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user With the money he already made I would retire long time ago ;) but that's just me ;)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too; His wife is a supermodel and rich in her own right too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Lucky bastard... must be nice to have it all ;) lol... now I'm depressed...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't like many of the new rookie QBs like Baker Mayfield<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Why what's wrong with them ? lazy primadonnas ? :)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I will be rooting for my favorite QB this weekend for sure!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user A quarterback (commonly abbreviated "QB") is a position in American and Canadian football.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am a huge Brady fan, he is the best QB of all time!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user you know Kellan Moore is the only left handed quarterback in the nfl<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know that; I though Tebow was left handed?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent This season is winding down and Alex Smith will be watching from home with his injury.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Babies spontaneously dance when they hear music, and smile more when they hit the beat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I always found it weird how they naturally just start dancing to music. I wonder why.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user because its baby<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard once that Bruce Lee, the kung fu actor, was actually a champion dancer too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes sure<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Are you a good dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no i am not a good dancer you<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am horrible; I look like a deer that just got hit by a car in the rear end when I dance<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ohh ok<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I went to school with Tupac and remember how good he was at not only singing but dancing too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user you knowThe National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the season is almost over for the year; Playoffs start soon<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Who is your favorite team?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user not particular favorite team just watch<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Merry Xmas<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you familiar with the NFL?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Only a little. Do you follow it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I watch it when it is on and I have a passing knowledge of the nfl, which is among the 4 major sports league in north America, but I don't follow it dedicatedly. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Some. I read that Alex Smith is playing really well right now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hear he may not be the flashiest, but he is a solid starter with overwhelming raw ability, which is often overlooked.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know that he really liked San francisco. He never really played well there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So what position do you pay most attention to in football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably QB. Smith has a great deal of raw ability, for some reason he just doesn't show it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I concur. I believe the QB is the core of the team's offensive so it is definitely an important position.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think kansas city is going to try hard to win this year. Do you watch them?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do not, but I would like to hear more<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They are raising money for the boys and girls club to help their standing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is very nice of them. Anything else?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no not much. Do you know Tom brady?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, he is a phenomenal player on the the new england patriots<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent he is. I don't think he ever got to start in high school.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was one of those hidden gems that performed phenomenally once he was officially recruited. He is one of only two quarterback players to win the superbowl during their first term as a starter<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats pretty cool! Smith that we were talking about earlier? Took so many Ap tests he started school as a junior!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow I didn't know that. very different backgrounds, yet both Smith and Brady are without a doubt impressive players.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They really are. The huddle they use today? Was because a player was deaf!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I also heard it was so that the other team couldn't read his hand signals. In any case football is a very interesting topic and thank you for the wonderful chat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent have a good day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thank you. To you as well.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, do you like NFL football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I do! I wish the season was shorter though 17 week regular season drags on!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The games only have 11 minutes of game play too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent So surprising. Females are allowed to play too there is no written rule against it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, as long as they meet league eligibility, I would be fine with it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I wouldn't mind watching it either. The New Orleans Saints cheerleaders are forbidden from eating in the same restaurant as any NFL player. I wonder how that's enforced?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too. I wonder if that is enforced if there was a female player as we mentioned? And why would the cheerleaders have to leave if they are there first<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I am not sure sounds unfair. The NFL also uses tracking chips in the players shoulder pads to record a players every move!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Also in the balls themselves!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes you are right! They track the speed, velocity, rotation, and location!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a lot of infomation to decipher since there are 32 teams in the NFL.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I agree. I like the touchdown dance some players do. Not the most aesthetic but it works!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Bruce Lee was a great dancer. won championship in 58<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yes that is interesting. Although I have never heard of the dance variation hong kong cha-cha!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ballet Dancers go through 4 pairs in a week!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Unbelievable! Remind me never to buy pointe shoes because they are not durable!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you know Michael Jackson had a patent on a dancing device?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah that one that allows him to do that extreme lean? I always wondered...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, Smooth Criminal Lean device is patented no wonder I dont see it in other videos.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes very good point. Babies also spontaneously dance when they hear music...very cute! Well it was great chatting with you partner.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, Parrots too. Take care.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello. Did you know the NFL doesn't have a rule against women players?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's interesting. They aren't totally about equal rights, though. For example, New Orleans Saints cheerleaders aren't allowed to eat at the same restaurants as players<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is so archaic. I guess they should be grateful, they don't put trackers in their clothes, like they do the players should pads.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is a clever way to track movements and analyze plays; so much of the game is analysis. Did you know that there's only an average of 11 minutes of live gameplay in an NFL game?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's insane! The commercials last way longer than that. I guess the chips in the footballs are to analyze plays too?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess you can't have too much data, even in a game that's been around for so long. Even the circular huddle was a new invention at some point, created by a deaf quarterback so the other team couldn't see his hand signals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is so cool. Tupac danced ballet when he was in high school, guess the tough rapper persona was all fake.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, some football players take ballet to improve their movement, too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user do they really? I know the dancers can go through quite a few pairs of shoes in a week.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I supposed putting all of your weight on your toes could cause pointe shoes to wear out quickly; seems like a good opportunity for a patent on a long-lasting shoe!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Michael Jackson had one on some of his shoes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, he had some crazy moves that would definitely require some mechanical assistance to achieve an extreme lean.; I wonder if there was any symbolic meaning to those moves or they were just aesthetically interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's all in the name of art. I think it's cute how babies dance when they hear music.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It must be hardwired; they also smile when they hit the beat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love watching the vidoes of them on YouTube. I hope one I see grows up to be a Mouse King in the Nutcracker, like Tupac.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe there are some videos of Bruce Lee dancing, too; he was actually a cha-cha champion in 1958.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I read that. Back in 1958, I think it was.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm sure he made more money in martial arts, though. Did you know that an engineer has a higher average lifetime earnings than an NFL or MLB player?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Isn't that crazy? The ones I know, don't get paid that much.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, one player, Baker Mayfield, even considered becoming a full-time competitive video game player when he was at the University of Oklahoma. I guess that can be pretty lucrative, too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Cleveland is lucky Mayfield decided to stay in football. Thank your for chatting with me, have a wonderful day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey, good to have you on with me today! Are you a big football fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent As a matter of fact I am, and play fantasy and watch at least a couple games per weekend. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I play tons of fantasy. I wish there werent only 16 regular season games so fantasy would last a little longer!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too. I was kind of aware of the NFL planting tracking kids in shoulder pads since they have the next gen stats on TV often.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I had not idea about that! Do they have the sensors or micro chips in anything else?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Inside the ball to track speed and everythng else. explains how they are able to build details like the ball trail for the TV screen<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh, thats really interesting. Im a little surprised that in total there is only an average of 11 minutes of live gameplay. I thought it would much more!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, given the draining clock, that makes sense. 11 brutal minutes though between commercial and commentary.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, its a tough sport. Given the players salaries i guess it evens out. Engineers are getting paid a lot more than i originally thought if they make more than NFL and MLB Players.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Kirk Cousins earned 44 million even with franchise tags. I'm a Vikings fan and otn know yet if hes worth 84 some mill.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was going to say, QB's excluded. They get paid a lot of money and Kirk sure did get paid. Im a KC fan so im wondering how Mahommes will get paid after his rookie contract is done.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hopefully he takes a team friendly contract to help shore up your defense.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No joke. Its not surprising that we werent in the superbowl thats in February each year!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wish he would have been. Better than the PAtriots again<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Im all for a guy getting his championships but it did make the even very lack luster. Although its kinda funny that a guy who was never started in high school ends up with 6 rings.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He's smart, though not overly athletic. OFten QBs are the opposite of that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. You can look at Cam Newton who is so large that he doesnt need to play smart football to win. Maybe all that Halo 3 that Mayfield is playing will help the browns out!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, video games help train people for a lot of things, like quick reads and reacting. Great for a QB<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ive heard they are good for mental quickness. Saying you can beat anyone at your whole university is pretty surprising.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He could play in a tournament and prove it, though I doubt he plays as much now since hes doing well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, hes really turned that team around. Hopefully they can keep it up! Have a good day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You too<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi there. Do you like dancing?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent To watch or to actually dance because it's been a while?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user To watch. I like dancing but am not good at it. I just throw myself around and have fun. I have no style! lol Did you know that Tupac Shakur danced ballet in high school?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I did not. Now the art of dancing is beautiful to watch, do you have a favorite to watch, mine is Tango?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not really. I'm just amazed people can move like that. Even Bruce Lee was a great dancer. He won the Hong Kong cha-cha championship in 1958!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that's impressive i guess martial arts and dance do have something in common.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never thought about it until now. Michael Jackson had a patent on a device that was used to achieve his extreme leans in some of his dance moves. All this time I thought he was doing that naturally! lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right! Did you know that professional ballet dancers go through 4 pairs of shoes a week?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow. That could get expensive! Babies will dance when they hear music and smile more when they hit the beat! Do you follow football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not as much know i'm too busy, You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do during the season. Out of the 32 NFL teams do you have a favorite? I like the Browns.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well i use to love the Packer's back when Bret was QB. The games are 17 weeks long with one bye week, right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. That's correct. He was a great QB. Did you know that the circular huddle was created by a deaf QB named Paul Hubbard so the other tam couldn't read his hand signals?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's smart. Would you consider Alex Smith to be a sacred player as some have said?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't think so. He's a smart guy though. He took so many ap tests in high school that when he got to college he entered as a Junior and received his bachelor's degree in two years!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that's amazing he was also the 2005 nfl draft pick, he was number one.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! Can't believe he's been in the league that long. Seems like yesterday it was 2005 and he was playing in San Francisco. Time sure flies. Did you know that Kellan Moore is the only left handed QB in the NFL? I'm not familiar with him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Neither am i but you're right it is hard to believe when you consider Michael Vic and a few others.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Vic is the manager of one of the teams in the new American Alliance of Football league. There is no written rule against female players in the NFL. Be nice to see one make it one day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah though i haven't even heard of one trying out and not making it. They should just create an all women's league like the wnab.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. I agree. The average NFL game has only 11 minutes of live gameplay. Crazy when you think about it for the amount of money you pay to go to a game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right, how do you feel about the tracking chips that will be installed in the padding of players as well as the ball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It depends if they are using it to gather data for safety I'm for it. I gotta run. Loved the chat!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How are you? Do you watch the nfl? The Redskins recently signed Alex Smith until the 2022 season as their quarterback<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent hi, do you watch football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, I'm a giants fans, it's funny how they drafted Lauletta while the Redskins were also considering drafting him<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Cool, I am not too big of a fan so I do not know all the players. did you know there is a rock scientist turned coach?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No but I do know that engineers have higher average lifetime earning than an average nfl player<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I am not suprised, I guess most of the players do not make that much<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No plus the average nfl game only has 11 minutes of gameplay, I guess the rest of the game are teams getting ready and commercials<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yup yet we are in front of the tv for so long. do you know who is the QB with the most wins in the cleveland browns home stadium<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I have no clue, they have had so many quarterbacks the past 20 years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is actually the steelers' ben roethlisberger<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting. Too bad the Browns never tried to sign Alex Smith, he's a really smart qb who received his bachelor's degree in two years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah the guy took so many ap tests in high school, good for him<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea I wonder what Alex Smith got his bachelor's degree in before becoming the first pick in the 2005 draft<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe, not sure of the timeline there. DO you know brad johnson?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, he played for Tampa Bay in the NFL and a couple other of the 32 teams in the NFL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice and he is the only player to throw himself a touchdown pass<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting, I'm surprised Tom Brady has never thrown himself a touchdown, although his high school jv team never started him despite not winning a game or throwing a touchdown<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah go figure. I would have loved to see Brad do that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if Brad Johnson is any good at video games like Baker Mayfield, Mayfield seriously considered becoming a full-time competitive gamer<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I wonder that too. how about baseball, do you watch it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not much but I do have a bunch of old baseball cards, they're not worth $3 million like the ones a man found in his grandfather's attic<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Talk about luck, good for him. nice chat :)<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi! Do you follow football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, not really but I do watch it sometimes. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Only on occasion. It is too long of a game for only 11 minutes of live play.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. There are so many time outs, breaks and fouls.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The huddle was invented by a deaf quarterback - to prevent the other team from stealing his hand signals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is really smart. I recently read that the NFL uses tracking chips!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hopefully with all of that they can prevent a lot of injuries.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that would be good. They also have a tracking chip in the football!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user With all of that you think the reviews would take a lot less time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent right! What do you think about the new orleans cheerleaders not being aboe to eat at the same restaurant as the football players?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it is ridiculous. I mean they even have to leave if they are already there. No wonder there are no women players. They dont treat women very well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah thats really rude. If that is the rule the players should have to submit a itinerary of where they are eating so the cheerleader wont have to randomly leave a restaurant in the mid of their meal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed. I wonder if that is just like during the season, training, or anytime. What could possibly have happened to make a rule like that,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe some kind of fratenization issue. I have no clue.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What do you think of Tebow playing baseball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think its fine, people change careers all the time, im sure sports players can too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he is a pretty good athlete and a good role model.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent did you know that baseball managers wear uniforms because they are technically allowed to play?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I dont know if it has ever happened, but it would be cool if they did.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent it would be a little scary to me lol most baseball managers are older, and usually dont warm up with the team, they might get injured lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think watching all the managers play each other might be cool. Proper warm up is definitely important. Dont want any injuries.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent its been great chatting with you, have a good one.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey there do you ever watch the NFL on TV? I know that I watch the Super Bowl<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I missed the Superbowl this year, but judging from the score didn't seem to be an outstandingly played game. But still must be an improvement over the first playoffs in 1932.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep I would imagine it was a lot more exciting than that game haha. But yes you're right, the Super Bowl is a little bit boring, but then again the average NFL game only has about 10 minutes of actual gameplay<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Crazy for a game that has a clock time of 1 hour and takes like 4 hours to play. Lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user LOL you're right about that haha. Another crazy thing is the way the New Orleans Saints cheerleaders are treated. I don't think it's right that they have to leave a restaurant if a player is already inside<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Or even worse, I heard they have to leave if one enters a restaurant they are already in. Who would agree to something like that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know right? I wonder if that's for all cheerleading teams or if that is specific to the Saints? Do you know anything more about that? I do know that technically females could play for the NFL, maybe one day all of the cheerleaders will be men and all of the players will be female haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know someone who cheered on the Bucs squad and she never said anything of that nature, so it might just be the saints. If the roles were reversed, the game would likely be more efficient, I doubt women would go for the long games, with little play.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I just don't know. I could see it happening though. But one thing that is for sure is that an engineer will earn more than either in NFL or MLB player over their lifetime which I think is kind of wild<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is, but when you break it down, the engineer can work a lot longer than the athletes, thus has more years of earning potential. There is one rocket scientist coach in the NFL, his college fight song was crazy, including 6 digits of Pi.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user thats pretty cool. did you hear about how the Huddle was invented?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wasn't it due to a deaf quarterback not wanting the opposing team to be able to read his hand signals?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep you're 100% right. The quarterback's name was Paul D Hubbard. I always wondered how you could have a deaf quarterback, but he must have been pretty good because he invented such an iconic thing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent So many things that were made for ease, ended up being very innovative, like the Yellow line. ESPN even won an Emmy for that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep that was an amazing invention! Do you like baseball by the way? I personally think it's really boring<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is one of the few sports I couldn't get into. Id play for fun, in pick up games, but watching it is kind of dull. Another sport with long game times and no action.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep I agree with you. One thing is that in Canada they don't call kickball kickball. They call it soccer-baseball. that sounds really stupid to me haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It kinda sounds like a name you give something to somehow make it more legitimate. There was once this 17 year old female pitcher that got banned from pro ball because she struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig back to back. Id be signing her not banning her.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know right! That's so impressive I wonder what happened to her. What other cool thing is that a baseball manager can actually play for the team if they're needed. That's why they were the uniform<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have any managers been called into action?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I don't think so. But that would be a game I would want to see haha<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user What do you think of Tim Tebow? Mike Francesca said playing him is a clown move.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think he might surprise some people, he might not have a good track record lately but who knows, what are your thoughts on the matter?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he is a really hard worker and is dedicated to the game. He works harder than everyone else on the field.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Exactly, he might not be the most taleneted player but hard work can pay off, it seems like Mike Francesa really has something against him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. With the NFL consisting of 32 teams I don't see why he has to pick on Tebow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, although Mets is a baseball team but still, seems like theres and old gruge or something.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder how often baseball managers actually play. They wear uniforms so that if needed they are ready to play.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that has never happened lol, it would be curious to watch a manager play though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Football has interesting roots. The circular huddle came about from a deaf quarterback that needed to use hand signals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see, that has become really handy now a days, you know theres no rule againts females palying<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder why more women don't play? and why there arent more left handed QB's in addition to kellan moore.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe because of the risk of the game- I certainly wouldn't want to try it. And that's news to me, I thought there were at least a couple more<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Football is a tough sport and hard on the body. Baker mayfield probably should have pursued his love of competitive gaming instead of football.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah but I bet he wouldnt be making as much, or maybe he could have become an engineer, their lifetime earnings are bigger than the ones of a football player<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Or he could have played kickball, which Canadians call soccer-baseball.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats a weird name for it, so are you a fan of baseball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I watch every so often. But not as often as Japanese people do. It's very popular there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see, I though it was only popular in America, you know that a man found 3 millions dollars worth in baseball card, the cards were hidden in his attic<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What a great find!!! He could buy some tracking chips that NFL players have in their shoulder pads.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet he could, he could buy many things with that amount of money, I would have been really surprised, thats like winning the lottery<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree! Nice meeting you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of the Redskins?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I am. What about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am, but after Dan Snyder purchased them they have sucked.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, I have heard that from several different people.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, it is like everything he touches turns to garbage. It makes it hard to watch because each year they end up sucking halfway into the season.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent On a side note, do you realize that an average NFL game only has 11 minutes of live gameplay?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not surprised, it seems like there is a lot of standing around on the sidelines.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's a fact. Wonder why there hasn't been a female player, yet? The NFL has no written rule against them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it is likely due to the fact that most Americans are less comfortable watching women play a heavy contact sport.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably likely, but you'd think there would at least be a kicker.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, there were kickers when I was in high school on competing teams. That's a tough job, here today, gone tomorrow: Laces out!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it's cool the NFL uses tracking chips in the player's shoulder pads to record a players every move on the field. They can gather all kinds of stats like that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, is it the NFL or the teams themselves? What would the NFL themselves use it for?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it's the NFL, probably most likely to track the players to see if they sustain concussions, most likely. Since that is the hot button issue right now. Force of the hit, how many hits sustained each game, etc.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Interesting, but they also have chips in the football as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, that info is probably more valuable to the individual teams and to give the talking heads something to discuss while everybody is standing around on the sidelines. Lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I hear that there are only 11 minutes of live gameplay in the average game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Like I said before, plenty of time to stand around.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, well apparently an engineer is, on average, likely to make more than the average NFL player over his career.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's why you stay in school and get a degree for when that golden career is all gone. Alex Smith was working on his Master's degree before becoming the first overall pick in the 2005 draft.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, i heard he took a bunch of AP classes when he was in high school. Well, nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you like baseball, maybe the Mets?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I do. Not so much the Mets but I think it's funny Tebow almost played on opening day for them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I thought it was a bad move, I agree with Mike Francesa, but who knows maybe Tebow will show everyone<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah it could happen. I think it's good he is starting in the AAA then if he proves himself he could move up.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He won the heismen trophy right? so that must mean theres a lot of talent hidden inside<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah exactly. I also like the NFL and wish Tebow stayed in that league. Crazy that the first NFL game was played back in 1932.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you have a favority NFL team? AFC or NFC?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah my team is the Seahawks. you? Russel Wilson is the man and he still is under an MLB contract!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Mine are the Patriots so AFC, and he ist? I wonder why, thats an odd fact<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah and he hasn't played a regular season game since 2011.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats a long time, maybe the team hasnt realiazed that yet lol or he has a really good contract<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah sure is nice to have options lol. Kellan moore is the only left handed QB in the league currently.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The only one in the league? I wonder if being a leftie is somehow a disadvantage to the game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah most of the plays must be centered around being right handed. Baseball is popular too with over 160,000 bats used in an entire season!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Baseball is another great sport I do like it, not only its popular in the US but it has a lot of fans in Japan<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah Ichiro was one of my favorite players and still is! The cubs was the first team to win back to back world series.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard they had a though time after that win, the team even got like cursed, do you collect baseball cards?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe it! Yeah I used too! you? Have you heard of that female pitcher who struck out babe ruth and lou gehrig? Not sure if I believe that...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Havent heard about her, if its true then that would change baseball histoy forever and yeah I collect cards, theres an interesting fact about them a really lucky man<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A really lucky card? Have you ever heard of the rule of catching a ball with your hat makes the other team receive 3 bases?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is that a rule? I have to Google it, I have never seen it I wonder if it ever happened.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you follow college football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i dont really follow college football. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do, my favorite team is Virginia Teach, they have a good team<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ok, i did not know that. how did they do this year? did they win a bowl?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I think it was the Clemson Tigers not really sure about that but it wasnt Virginia tech<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent oh, ok. well, maybe next year! what do you think of U of Iowa and their locker rooms?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think they can be intimidating to some teams, its really funny how they painted the visitor teams locker all pink<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i wonder if it works. do other teams do it? if it worked, everyone would do it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I dont think so, I bet the Iowa University is the only one with that strange characteristic<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, i guess it is their trademark. it might have helped cumberland against georgia tech.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They did lose 222-0 what a humiliating loss, I would retire of football after a loss like that one<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, the GT coach seemed to be bent on proving something. i wonder what. they must have scored on every play.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah and also the other team fumbled the ball a lot or many interceptions, it would be really hard to lose by 222 points lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent the GT coach should have put in the third string and maybe even the cheerleaders. or played a different sport entirely, like basketball.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet he wasnt paid much so he was just like screw this, bowlers used to make more than pro football players back in the day<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent bowlers were lucky because the sport was very popular back in the day. now they are not so popular.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I dont see bowlers making much money these days, there are many more popular sports now<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes, quite true. football has the violence. people love combat and gladiators. i figure that football is going to change because of injuries.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hope it does, did you watch that movie about all the damage players end up with? really sad, rules must be changed.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent i didnt see that film but i know that concussions are a serious problem, even in the kids game. it is scary how the brain get damaged.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is, I have a son and he loves to play football I get really worried, its been really fun chatting with you by the way<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, it has been fun. Have a good day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You have a great day as well and take care if you play football keep in mind all the injuries caused by the game and all.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user do you like basketball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent do you like basketball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I do. DO you know who Kareen Abdul-Jabbar is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes he is the guy that used the dunk shot so much that it got banned for a while<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah. Do you know who invented the game of basketball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that was the coach at U of Kansas, James Naismith<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes and he was also the only losing coach there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ironically yes. Coaches are the highest paid employees in many states though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I guess with the sport's popularity that comes as no surprise<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah i guess so. Have you heard of the highest court in the land?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes that is the court om the top floor of the US Supreme Court building<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Do you know what the NZ basketball team s called?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they are called the tall blacks, not sure how that flies there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me either. Do you like drama?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love drama. Did you ever see House MD?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I have, it is a great show and Laurie made $700 000 per episode in it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah. Do you like Jim Carrey?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love him. Do you know why he does not do drama anymore?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he thinks that they do not portray positivity<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. Do you listen to radio dramas?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes there is a free website for them so I go to that one usually. Nice chatting with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you use facebook?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do. Though I should use less of it, it's gotten very political.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I do like using it as a social media platform, but I don't use it for the news<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can you believe Myspace turned down an offer to buy it back in 2005?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It doesn't even exist anymore so it can't even regret it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe if they had gotten it for the price of only $75 million, they'd still be a company. It's valued way more now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is over 100 billion now<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe it was 104 billion back in 2012, so it's probably even more now with over 2 billion users worldwide.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I can see that consider how much power facebook now holds<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right? So much so that Iceland is re-writing their constitution on Facebook so that the public can make suggestions.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Indeed. Makes you wonder where they will go from here<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not far in parts of Germany, I guess, where the "like" button is illegal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well germany is unique. Like how they blocked uber<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't realize the reason Facebook is mostly blue is because Mark Zuckerberg has red-green colorblindness.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I also didn't know, but even without being colorblind, I think I favor the blue more<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, but I wonder how much we're influenced by Facebook? I think Myspace was also blue.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Who knows? Maybe it is a social experiment testing how subliminal messages affect the masses?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Kind of like the one Burger King is conducting; they say if you unfriend 10 people, you get a free whopper. That's a disturbing message.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Indeed, yet that wasn't as subtle. Anyway thanks for chatting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe it will work with the younger crowd since Facebook allows members as young as 13.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Perhaps? I can see it better influencing younger minds. Kind of is a scary thought though. Have a nice day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of facebook?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I use it to keep in touch with people so I guess I'm a fan in that respect. Why would BK give free stuff to people that unfriend others?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm like you in that respect. What was Burger King giving away?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A free Whopper if you unfriend 10 people. Iceland is using Facebook for other things too. They are rewriting their constitution with it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would have been all over that deal! lol That's interesting. I can't believe it's been 15 years already since Facebook was founded in 2004.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, it seems like yesterday. I guess there's worse things one could be doing like installing a flame-thrower on their car.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Whoa! I've heard of those cars in South Africa where they are legal.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Carjacking must be common. Not common is a president who goes by the name "banana".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol The president of Indonesia has released 3 pop albums while in office!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's cool. I hate to dive into politics since it's so dog-eat-dog these days but... I can't believe Trump is seen as "pro gun". He really isn't. He just banned bump stocks to be confiscated and hired an AG that isn't pro gun. He gets bad press no matter what he does.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think any time he can create some publicity he does it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He doesn't have to, studies have shown that 92-95% news is negative about Trump. I just read a really biased article that paints the ACLU, SPLC and Democratic Socialists as the good guys. In my opinion, these people are not the "good guys".<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's pretty interesting. I'll have to read up more on it for sure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I can't stand talking about it anymore. Everyone should start being honest and humane. We need pop albums from the WH!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user LOL We'll talk about something else like cars. I can't believe that they have cars in South Africa that are equipped with flame throwers to prevent carjackings!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That brings new meaning to "getting burned in traffic." I am happy about McDonald's putting in the drive thru.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't realize that didn't happen until 1975 to accommodate soldiers. I was only 4 years old then. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lucky you. I can't believe that the 3 richest presidents were JFK, Washington and Jefferson. How does one make such a comparison? How do you compare horses and cows to limos and jet planes?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol Right? I had a good time chatting with. I'm going to have to look up some of that stuff.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent OK, I enjoyed it too. Watch out for those flame-throwers!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol will do! Have a great day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi Are you a Facebook fan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not really. I use it occasionally, but I do not like their privacy issues and the role it plays in the whole fake news fiasco<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree with you there. I cant believe it's been around already for 15 years since it was founded in 2004.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have had an account since it started. I actually liked it when I used it from about 2004-2008. I think its sad that 30 % of American adults use it as their primary source of news.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is sad. I don't even look at that garbage or all those useless memes. It's a huge waste of time. I just use to stay in touch with close friends and family.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I used to use it to stay in touch with friends and family, but now I don't so much.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Aww. Sorry about that. If it makes you feel any better, I'm always the one reaching out to my family. I rarely hear from them if I didn't initiate to reach out to them. I wonder how Myspace feels now about turning down the chance to buy Facebook for $75 million in 2005?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think its sad how Facebook can be used to manipulate people's feelings and opinions about political topics.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Did you hear about the Facebook promotion that Burger King had?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didn't. What was it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If you unfriended 10 people on Facebook, Burger King would give you a free whopper! I think I would have had to delete a few people. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, that is ridiculous. On a separate note, did you know that the only US president to have a Ph.D. was Woodrow Wilson and the last president to speak a foreign language fluently was Roosevelt? Crazy, huh?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy! Wow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Who is your favorite US president in history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's tough question...Probably Reagan since I've been alive because it sure seems like things were better all around in the 80's.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Interesting. To change subjects, did you know that it is against the law to warm up your car in Ohio when the weather is cold?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that! Interesting! Have you heard about the flame thrower cars they have in South Africa to prevent carjackings? I sure wouldn't want to live there. I would be afraid they would fall into the wrong hands.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I haven't. Wow, that sounds crazy. Did you know that that Google's self driving cars have an "aggressive" mode? They must use it in city traffic.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh boy...those self driving cars scare me. lol It's been fun chatting with you tonight!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes me too. They don't seem like a great idea. I am not sure I would want to ride in one.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No way Jose. lol I have to get going. Have a good night and thanks for the chat!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi, how are you? do you like football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea I watch football all the time, it's a shame Alex Smith got injured but he can always fall back on something else considering he started his master's degree before being drafted<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet that he has a lot of opportunities with his intelligence and motivation. I wonder what he will choose.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea Smith is incredibly smart, it only took him two years to get his bachelor's degree while he was playing college football<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He did so many APs in high school. he is a focused individual. he is the ideal type for QB.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Tom Brady is also pretty smart but not his JV coach who never started him despite the team not winning a game<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, the coach was probably playing favorites. TB was promising but needed his chance to show his talent.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea,the coach must be kicking himself for not seeing how good Tom Brady was after he won 4 super bowls<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I bet many coaches have done similar things because they had their favorites. Clutch players have to be put in clutch situations.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, Paul D Hubbard was pretty clutch and invented the circular huddle<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I couldnt imagine a deaf quarterback, but there are many deaf athletes so i shouldnt be surprised.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oddly in the nfl there is only one left handed qb, Kellan Moore<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is that a problem for teams? A lefties a challenge for designing plays?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know, I figure if it was then a good coach would be able to turn a left handed qb into an advantage<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess so? i don't know how hard it is for defenses to adapt to a new QB. i also wonder how big the advantage of the lefty is.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably a little similar to south paws in boxing, if there is an advantage<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess the rhythm could be different, the choices of the QB would be unexpected. Unlike that pink locker room at U of Iowa.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You know if I was a visiting player in Iowa's locker room I would probably find the pink to be calming and relaxing lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess. i wonder how many other teams have tried that technique. if it worked, everyone would do it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if Georgia tech had any special techniques when they beat Cumberland 222-0<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, the players were twice as big, twice as fast, and ten times better. Anyway, great chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice talking with you, have a good one<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Such a shame to hear of the college players suicide.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very sad!!! Way too young!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Any idea of why he may have done it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He did have substance abuse issues....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Leaf and Bledsoe also showed their support for him and his family too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, It struck so many with sadness and confusion.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Leaf had also attempted suicide too and can certainly relate to what the young man was going through at the time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I heard that too. I think many can relate, sadly. He did leave a suicide note and I don't know what that stated. Do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No. Bledsoe reiterated the importance of reaching out to someone when you are going through tough times<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Exactly, many stated reaching out is a sign of not weakness but strength. Too sad that so many feel there is no hope.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Suicide still ranks second as the cause of death for many young men aged 18 and up.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's horrible. So much tragedy. We are on this earth for only a moment in time it seems.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user His teammates were able to bounce back and do fairly well in the Holiday Bowl against Michigan, though they ended up losing sadly<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I read that too. He completed 130 of 179 passes for 1,176 yards and 7 touchdowns.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would have loved to see them beat Michigan for sure.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too! Hilinski was a great quarterback!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Who is your favorite NFL QB?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I really couldn't name only 1 haha who is yours?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Drew Brees and Tom Brady for sure<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh yeah, great choices! Tom Brady is insanely talented.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hope he doesn't retire. He actually sat the bench in high school<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am - I wanted to lead the team and be a quarterback when I was growing up but I was never that good<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user me too, I just learned how to throw a spiral. I think QBs are geniuses, just look at Alex Smith<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes - he was working on his masters degree when he was drafted! Many players never even complete a BA<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, he had his bachelors by his 2nd year. Not bad for a #1 pick. Do you watch college football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I love my alma mater Wake Forest - do you follow any teams?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user My alma mater, the university of iowa! They paint their visiting locker room pink!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Most excellent idea! Are there many left handed quarterbacks in college football? There is only one in the NFL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like Kellen Moore, he played at Boise State. Michael Vick was my favorite lefty<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know the huddle was invented for a deaf quarterback?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard that, I can't remember who it was, do you know who?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Paul Hubbard was his name - he needed to hide his hand signals<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is smart and look how they still use it today. So amazing. Lots of amazing people on Earth<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes - did you know that Georgia Tech once won a game 222-0 ? That must have been one boring game!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet, I would have quit if I was the other team! I would have left at 100-0<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too! Back then there was no tv and ESPN had not created their yellow line yet<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What would life be like without that yellow line! We would be guessing on everything<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know! It is challenging! At least players like Patriots Green-Ellis make the game easy for the refs<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user for sure, I heard that guy never fumbled once in his career. Good chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes - at least football players get paid more now - in the 60's bowlers made more!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, how are you? do you like the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, it's pretty cool how sound is produce through electromagnetic energy waves through space<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes, it is a great invention. i think it has helped many people around the world get their news and maybe get educated.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, in Finland they even have a new program in classical latin called Nuntii Latini<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess they have dedicated fans because that has been around for decades.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Apparently, I heard dedicated fans of classic radio dramas can listen to them online for free<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user there are some great dramas out there. i think the history of entertainment tells a lot about the stories we see now on tv<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What's pretty cool is you can pick up Jupiter's radio storms on am radio, I wonder what frequency you have to tune to<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i dont know. i dont know what they would sound like so i couldnt recognize them. strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not as strange as the President of Indonesia releasing 3 pop albums while in office lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess he had a yearning to be heard. He needed his voice to be acknowledged. Plus he wanted the cash.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe but JFK, Washington, and Jefferson were the 3 wealthiest presidents and they never released any albums<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, JFK has his father's rum money. And the two others owned heaps of land. JFK has the look of a star but not the singing voice. his mistress did though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if the first president of zimbabwe was rich, maybe he sold bananas since they called him President Banana<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Perhaps given that nickname for a reason<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Perhaps. Did you know the runner up in the presidential election became vice president until 1805?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that was an odd system. maybe the vp had more power then? now its a ceremonial position for the most part. i would not want it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sounds like way too much stress, I'd imagine the vice president and president probably hated each other<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, they probably were not on the same page and little got accomplished. Now it is a pointless position. Little real authority. Anyway, nice chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You too. I'm gonna go look up more info about the man who sold the Eiffel Tower twice<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That man was a genius salesman. Have a good night!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thanks, you too<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know a Bertram Snyder from Maryland?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent no, but it looks like he was an internist<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, he was really old, 90, I'd be lucky to live that long<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess all the people helped were lucky too. He graduated medical school at 21<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess he did a lot of good in his life being a doctor and all<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sounds like he volunteered at Arlington Free clinci<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, he worked all over the place to and wrote a book in 1966<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What kind of book did he write/<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was cal led "The Agony of Modernization: Labor and Industrialization in Spain" I guess it is some kind of history book<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, unrelated to medicine but sounds interesting<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, I guess he was a jack of all trades, he joined the Foreign Service in 1950<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Actually it says that Mr. Martin wrote The agony of Modernization<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh my mistake, theres so much he has done<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you see that one of the most popular radio acts in the 30's was a ventriloquist<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, thats wierd, like how do they even know there is a guy with a dummy on the radio<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't know. But also, the last president to speak a foreign language fluently was fdr<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's surprising, did you know jfk was one of the most wealthiest presidents?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes, interesting . In guatemala close relatives of former presidents can't legally run for president. Takes out the whole line to the throne concept.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Makes a lot of sense to me, America should try that too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The only president to have a phd was woodrow wilson too that's a fun fact<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user More like a sad fact<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, could be<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, yes I like the radio when I can listen to it. I use pandora or audio books a lot though lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There is a website where you can listen to thousands of episodes of classic radio dramas for free.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Would you listen to a weekly news program conducted entirely in classical latin? I wonder how many people can actually understand that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I cant understand latin so it probably wouldnt be very beneficial to me lol I hear soliders use to make radios with just a razor and pencil. How do you even do that lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No idea, and now I want to learn!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe you can look it up on Youtube! Youtube has everything lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I probably could! I just learned that the three wealthiest presidents are jfk, washington and jefferson. I'll have to Google that to confirm.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I saw that too, but Im pretty sure its Trump, then Washington and then Jefferson. i hear the president guest house is bigger than the white house<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, I would love to be a guest there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You and your whole family probably! Ive never been to the white house but Ive seen pics, its huge lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Awesome. What do you think of the president of Indonesia? He has released 3 pop albums while in office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's impressive, run a country and make 3 pop albums. Multitasking! lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha, right! Hopefully he was actually running the country and not just making the pop album! I would be more entertained if the runner up still became the vice president though. Though, it probably would not be the brightest idea.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah Hillary and trump wouldnt make a good team. '<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know, haha. Do you think the government should care about the environment? In 2008 the Norwegian government donated one billion dollars to help save the Amazon rainforest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent absolutely. The government should be very involved in the enviornment<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user In Nevada 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the US Government. I hope they are taking good care of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Its probably all the military bases and stuff.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I bet you are right.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello there. Do you want to talk about the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good morning! I think I could talk about the Government and politics all day long!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ok, well we know that a government is the system or group of people governing an organized community, often a state. In the case of its broad associative definition, government normally consists of legislature, executive, and judiciary.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, it is. I find it funny that Wikileakes published the government's plans to destroy Wikileaks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I agree. Did you know that the US government owns 86% of Nevada? Wow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! That is a lot of land. I think it is nice what the Norwegian Government did in 2008.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that the donated $1Billion to help save the Amazon Rainforest. That was generous of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I agree. It was very selfless. Have you heard about the man in France and his sale of the Eiffel Tower?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that he impersonated a government official and managed to sell the Eiffel Tower not just once but twice. Outrageous wasn't it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Completely insane! So, I know our current President gets a lot of flack, but the first President of Zimbabwe was called President Banana! I wonder if that was a compliment or an insult?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Considering their main export, it might be a compliment. Also the president of Indonesia released 3 pop albums while he was in office. Cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, maybe. And that is surprising about the albums!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, and up until 1802 in the US, the runner up in a presidential election automatically became the Vice President. Too bad it's not still like that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't think it would be a good idea to have Trump and Clinton together. They would not get a long at all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Or maybe they would if they had to, just a thought. Anyways, do you know anything about radio? Radio is an interesting topic and there is a website where you can listen to thousands of episodes of classic radio dramas for free.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like the radio. I know Jupiter has storms so strong that they can be picked up an heard by an am radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, and funny thing is that according to Canadian law, all radios are required to have at least 40% of the music played be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like that law. It seems like it keeps things fair.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe a good thing. Did you know that soldiers in WWII made simple radios using a razor blade and pencil as the diode? I think they were called Foxhole radios.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No kidding! Sounds creative.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I'd like to try and make one myself. Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey there, do you follow politics much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't used to, but in the last three years I've gotten very interested in it. What about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So so. DId you know trump is not the wealthiest president in us history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I figured he was the wealthiest modern one, but some of the early presidents were very rich. Which was the wealthiest?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Between jfk. washington and jefferson, one of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I hadn't thought of JFK, but he did come from a family with a lot of money, so that makes sense. The other two are no surprise with how much property they owned in the early days of the country. It probably gave them a lot of government influence.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah. did you know the guest house is larger than the white house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wouldn't have guessed that! I guess it would make sense if the president needs to have a lot of political guests.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah lots of guests i guess<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder how much difference there is between the US president and other countries' presidents. Did you know that one country's president actually released 3 pop albums while he was in office?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user was that the president of indonesia? That is so cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder what the subject of his songs were. Imagine if he was singing "The Government Rap" or something!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hahhaha that would be funny indeed. do you know how the vice president was elected prior to 1805?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I remember learning that the vice president was the one who came in second in the presidential elections. Imagine the conflicts if that happened now!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know I guess it is better the way that things run now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if the reason it changed was because of personality and political conflicts between the president and the VP. It probably would hurt how the government runs.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user could be. have you heard of wikileaks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have heard of them. They cause a lot of frustration in the government when they publish things that the higher-ups would rather keep quiet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know, they even published documents that show how the government was planning to destroy them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds like the ultimate taunt to show how unafraid of the government they are.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know, so tough. It was nice chatting with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good morning and thank you for chatting with me today! Do you like to listen to the radio. I find it interesting how radio's work in general.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea I enjoy the radio from time to time, especially radio dramas<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have hear but not been able to find it yet of a web site that one can listen to thousands of classic radio drama's for free. I like to listen to all kinds of music.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that website would be my dream then! I hope you like Canadian bands if you ever go to Canada. 40% of all radio music there must be from Canadian bands<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I have been to Canada!! I have never heard that factoid before though. I would suppose the radio stations would have to see it through as how would one know for sure if a song is Canadian or not if they were not a specialist in music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They would have to be very familiar with Canadian bands. Or just play a lot of RUSH and Alannis Morisette to be safe haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user HA A, agreed!! Do you know that in WWII soldiers made simple radios with a pencil and a razor blade and called them foxhole radios?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I had heard about that, I wonder how the heck they figured out that that would work for them, that's some real MacGyver stuff right there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I totally agree how did they know to do that? Also on an AM station at times storms can be heard from Jupiter; how amazing is that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats crazy. Do you know Latin at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is indeed! I do not know Latin; I have heard a few song and have seen people dance to it. Just watching puts me out of breath I can imagine how the dancers feel when the song is over.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh I meant Latin the language! the ancient one. Although i do love some latin music myself<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am afraid I do not know Latin the language, I am fluent in English and can count to ten in Spanish as well as know a few colors in Spanish. I know how to say I love you in German but that is my extent of language.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent same here pretty much. I was gonna say, if you knew Latin there's a FInnish radio station that has broadcast a weekly news program entirely in Latin for the past 30 years called Nuntii Latini<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is interesting! A little factoid I find very interesting is that of a man in France has not once but twice sold the Eiffel Tower by impersonating a government official.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent woah I wonder how much he was pricing it at?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That I am not sure of but wonder how it happens not once but twice by the same person? I have been to the very tip top of the Eiffel Tower and love it. It is so pretty to see at night time all lit up as well as during the day if the clouds are around it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've never been but I surely want to go there someday! Norway too. Their government donation 1 billion dollars to help save the Amazon rainforest<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is very pretty in the fall there! I find that it is wonderful for the government to help save the rain forest. I also think more people need to help even if in little ways to preserve all the lands for future generations.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, I think everyone should be doing their part, especially the people that lead our countries. Heck, Norway is so far away from the Amazon and they did a huge amount to help!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree! I try to do my part everyday! I frequently recycle while at home as well as while I am out and about. I frequently walk the beach and pick up trash left by others; sadly far too much trash it seems.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, not enough people do their part to recycle. Well i gotta run, it was nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, are you interested in the President, Radio, or Government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would say I am more interested in government. Systems or groups of people organized in a community do something to me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ok, well government is a means by which organizational policies are enforced as well as a mechanism for determining policy. This affects all of us, really.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The statement of a governing principle and philosophy is much more than the smile on a dog.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Funny, did you know another funny thing? 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the US government.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Religion is the talk on a cereal box. Another way to have an absolute state of authority is to have a tyranny.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well said. Did you know that Wikileaks published the government's plans to destroy Wikileaks? Now that's a Wikileak!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Its almost like a photo of a person holding a photo. The guy in France that sold the Eiffel tower, he has some skill.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I heard about that. A man in France impersonated a government official and sold the Eiffel Tower not just once but twice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You would think Mr. Eiffel would have something to say about a guy putting up for sale signs, having tours through the living room.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user One would think. Did you know that in 2006, the US passed legislation to protect government employees from prosecution for violating the Geneva Conventions.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is important when water boarding to have legislation on your side. I like how the Norwegian Government donated $1 billion to save the amazon forest. Our government would sell chimpanzees guns but thats about all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well our government is just as wild as the rest of the worlds. Afer all, the first president of Zimbabwe was called president banana.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Top Banana. I hear there is prison time if you forget his first name. Canada has a la that 40% of all music must be canadian. good for them. Country and western needs a place to go.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree with that! Add to that, Jupiter has radio storms so strong that they can be picked up and heard by AM radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if Jupiter sounds like whales? Scottish bag pipes are very annoying. How could you calculate the wealth of president Geroge Washington.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe by reverse engineering inflation, I don't know. Yes, Washington, Jefferson, and JFK were the top three wealthiest presidents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet Washington never filed a tax return. Any calculation of his wealth in 1776 dollars would be speculation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Believe me, they probably have a way to estimate it. Lucky for George, he lived in pre-Federal Reserve era. Did you know that soldiers in WWI made simple radios using razor blades and pencil as a diode?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A foxhole radio. It sounds like a waste of time. Maybe there was a lot of free time in fox holes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Could be. Nice chatting.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user It always saddens me to see people mistreat those who survived something as horrific as the Holocaust<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's definitely sad. People and governments can often leave others without the best support.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They can be, but they can do really good things too! The Amazon can thank the Norwegian government for donating $1 billion to help save the rainforest<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's so neat! People in government can be super cool, I guess. Like the Indonesian president, who has recorded several pop albums during his time in office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There's also funny government stories. Like the guy who impersonated a French government official twice. He managed to sell the Eiffel Tower both times<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, I wonder for how much! Or that guy in Zimbabwe, who called himself President Banana<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He didn't call himself that, but his last name was actually Banana.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Speaking of quirky things, did you know that under Canadian law, at least 40% of the music played on the radio has to be Canadian?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's one way to encourage nationalism. I wonder how much nationalism exists on the 86% of Nevada land that's owned by the US government<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right? Well, seeing as how all government employees are protected if they ever violate the Geneva Conventions, I would say the US is trying to keep up with that whole Nationalism thing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure if that's a good law or not. That's one that would need to be researched. At one point, Wikileaks had a post that revealed the government's plans to destroy them, but I'm not sure how accurate that would be<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think the irony is there, though. Kind of like how the White House guest house is bigger than the actual White House.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Just like it would be ironic if the runner up in an election became the VP now like they used to. Nothing would get accomplished<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Right? Could you imagine? That's probably why it only lasted until 1805.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user By then the parties would have started becoming more divided as the population grew. Still, many who become President are still wealthy people<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Some of the original founding fathers were among the wealthiest presidents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's not surprising though since they would have had some of the first dibs on the land. I wonder if we would even like Washington or Jefferson if they were alive in our modern culture<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would think it would be pretty hard to relate to a president from so long ago.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It would be hard for them to relate to us now. Many of them weren't even around when the radio was invented, so you can imagine how they would feel about listening to classic radio dramas on a website<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha. Or listening to classical Latin on a Finnish radio station!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They might actually understand the language!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you follow politics, I think the president has a really important job.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes I agree, and I do follow it a bit, what about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do, I think its important to keep updated, do you approve of Trump actions while in office?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think he's making the best of what he's given I don't agree with everything but no one will give him credit for the things he has done, what about you<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think he has some good ideas but not sure if his the right man for the job, too much drama in the White House and he can be really sttuborn at times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent thats true, did you know that he wouldn't be in the list of top three richest presidents of all time<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow his not on the list? who are the 3 richest presidents of all time then? he must be 4th for sure<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ya, its apparently JFK, Jefferson and Washington, this list must be adjusted for inflation<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah it wouldnt make sense otherwise, afterall Trump has a guest house thats larger than the White House,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha ya that is wild, did you hear about the president of zimbabwe? His nickname is President Banana, does he have a VP names Plantain? haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats funny lol, I bet the VP has a curious nickname as well, I bet President Banana likes yellow<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha that could be it, do you listen to teh ratio at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do, everyday when I commute to work, do you like any particular stations?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent well I listen to youtube personally, but I did hear that Jupiter has radio storms that you can pick up on AM radio, maybe listen to those next time before work? haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be amazing, I will look up the frequency it would be really interesting although over time it would also be boring<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha ya, I don't know if id rather listen to that or the finnish radio station that plays all programs in classic latin<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds really boring lol, but its been around a long time so Im guessing it has a good segments of fans<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ya that's true, do you know that wwii soldiers made radios out of pencils and razorblades? like how was that possible<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow that is an incredible skill I bet that saved countless of lives back in war, radio is an important invention theres a lot of science behind it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent right I agree, they were called foxhole radios and must have player a super important part in the war<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah for sure, I bet the goverment kept tabs on soldiers using them even after the war.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi! Do you know much about presidential history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent hi how are you? i dont know much about presidential history. please enlighten me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ok..lol The top 3 wealthiest presidents in the American history were JFK, Washinton, and Jefferson.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What? Trump isnt in there? Color me shocked! LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol I think this data may be from before he was president. Up until 1805 the runner up in the US presidential elections automatically became vice president. I couldn't imagine that working in this day and age.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that it would as fun as a barrel of monkeys! Hill-dawg and Trump together in the Oval Office. Priceless!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user LOL The first president of Zimbabwe was called President Banana!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent that is a silly name. Perfect! That is an insulting moniker that no one will ever forget. what should trumps nickname be?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would have to say Jason Momoa's character now lol because I just met him at a comic con. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats great! he seems like a great guy! he must get all the women at the con to come by.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I forgot to put the name....lol Kahl Drogo. You would have to look him up. If you don't watch the show though, you won't get the Trump nick.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ok. Do you listen to radio these days?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do! I would like to try to find the AM channel where I could listen to the Jupitor radio storms. I think that would be neat.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent you can listen to solar activity too. I wonder how the jupiter storms sound. better than top 40 these days?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They just might! lol I like how in Canada, the law requires that at least 40 percent of the music played has to be Canadian artists. I think that gives some artists a better chance of being heard.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess, but then what about the internet? can the canadian govt dictate content there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure on that one. I know they have a different domains there that end in .ca Speaking of gov'ts...did you know that 86 percent of the land in Nevada is owned by the US government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is insane. i wonder what the govt does on all that empty land. alien experiments? war games? LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Both! lol In 2008 the Norwegian government donated $1 billion dollars to help save the Amazon rainforest. I had fun chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I had a lot of fun chatting too! Have a good evening!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You have a good night too!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi, do you know much about the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi! I know an average amount about the government, but recently learned that the government is under intense pressure to come clean about the mistreatment of people that were invited to settle after World War II when there were labor shortages, what started those pressures anyway?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user oh wow did not know that. wonder if wikileaks has any info about that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent They might, Do you know what the controversy is surrounding Wikileaks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah they have published secret documents that show how the gov't is trying to destroy them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh no wonder, what were the consequences as a result of the leaks? Were there charges pressed?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah and i think that is why the ceo was deported<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh wow, I wonder if the CEO wanted to renounce his citizenship since the US government publishes the full names of people who chooses to renounce their citizenship.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah that is a strange one. do you listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes but I only listen to the radio when in the car, though I have yet to stumble upon the station that plays solar sounds of the sun's music. Have you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no but that is an interesting one. have you ever listened to canadian radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I'm not familiar with Canadian radio, how is it different from American radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user well they are required to play canadian music 40%of the time<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, how do they monitor that radio stations do that? Is there a penalty for not hitting those numbers?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i think so, i am not entirely sure though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard on the radio this morning that there have been five presidents that have won the popular vote but still lost the presidential election, do you think that deters people from voting?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think so, because then why are we voting<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, do you wish the US system chose its presents based on the popular vote instead of the current system?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very much so. Do you know who the wealthiest presidents were?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too, I'm not sure who the wealthiest presidents are, but if I had to take a guess, I'm thinking that Trump isn't on that list?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user nope he is not. nice chat<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user What do you think about the new royal couple Prince Harry and Meghan Markle?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think its sort of interesting seeing that she is American and an actress. It s pretty cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder how they chose who attended their wedding? They visited Wales and Cardiff the Welsh capital together.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder that too. Cardiff sounds lovely. They gathered outside the castle there. Sounds really nice. Sounds like she had a good reception there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Markle is very popular. They called Markle a natural with the crowds and they even had "Meghan Mania." Do you enjoy the couple?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do. I think they seem to be nice and genuine people. Seems like there was some questions about Trump attending the wedding buy Theresa May dodged them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The Windsor Chapel, the site of their marriage seats about 800 people, so not sure he was invited. But May said she wasn't responsible for invites.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh I see. Sounds like they are free to invite or not invite who they want. They dont even have to invite the foreign heads of state.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Meghan and Prince Harry got to experience Welsh culture preparing for their wedding and sampling Welsh cakes. Sounds like fun!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet. I met some Welsh people this summer. They were fantastic. They even visited a radio station in London.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was questionable whether Obama and his wife would be invited to the wedding as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if they liked Obama there. Sounds like they stayed pretty secret about who they were sending invites too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Harry when interviewed by BBC said he didn't want to ruin the surprise of who was invited.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that is pretty cool. I am glad, that for the most part, Markle has been being received well. I couldnt believe that Henry Bolton's girlfriend at the time sent racists texts about her.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is sad. Do you listen to radio? If you do, you can hear radio storms from Jupiter on am radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds amazing. I want to check out the website that has all the old classic radio dramas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You can use just a razorblade and pencil to make a simple radio like the soldiers in wwii made if you don't have one.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder how they figured that out. Canada has a law that requires 40% of music played must be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They must have been geniuses. Take a guess at who the three wealthiest presidents are. Do you think Trump?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would say at this point. I would bet JFK was extremely wealthy. Curious what Washington and Jefferson would be in todays money?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wonder how much Washington paid for his wig since he was loaded? The first president of zimbabwe was called President Banana.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, what is your opinion about the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, I guess it depends on what aspect of the government you are referring to. I read recently that Nevada is mostly owned by the government.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think The United States government owns 47 percent of all land in the West. ... Utah and Nevada, the majority of land is owned by the federal government. Is it right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is interesting. I did not know that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The federal government owns more land in Nevada than any other state. Here's which counties in Nevada the government owns the most land.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see. I read some interesting facts about other governments too. Someone impersonated a government official and sold the eiffel tower twice!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh! that's nice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is crazy lol how does someone even go about getting the official papers<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sorry, i don't know about it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent looks like the norwegian government donated 1 billion dollars to save the amazon rainforest. that was nice of them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, it's too good. Do you like Radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I like listening to the radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Which program you mostly like?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent hmmm I mostly listen to music on the radio. But I guess they have some morning discussions between them in the morning that I like too. What kind of music do you listen to? I learned that in Canada they have to play 40% canadian music.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that's interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What kind of music do you listen to? I hear there is station that you can hear old classic dramas for free. If you like that sort of thing. I guess it is kinda like an audio book lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I mostly like The Goon Show.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Whhat kind of radio show is that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The Goon Show was a British radio comedy program.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh I see.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Okay, thank you very much for chat with me.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice chatting.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How's it going, did you know in parliamentary republics the role of president is largely ceremonial?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's going good. I didn't know that. I know that in authoritarian regimes, dictaror or leader of a one party state may also be callled a president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never knew the 3 wealthiest US presidents were Jefferson, JFK, and Washington<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't either. I wonder if Trump is now on that list?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe. It's pretty interesting the first president of Zimbabwe was called President Banana<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is interesting! I think it's funny that the president of Indonesia released 3 pop albums while in office. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, the president of Indonesia must of been a good singer if he released more than 1 album<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know right? Up until 1805 the runner up in the US presidential elections automatically became the vice president. I wonder how they worked out? Bet they fought a lot behind closed doors.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, that's probably why they stopped letting the runner up be vice president starting in 1805<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha I wonder why the US presidents guest house is larger than the White House?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is odd, I wonder if President Banana or the pop singing Indonesian President have ever been in the guest house<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hahaha They might have been there!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Speaking of music, did you know in WWII soldiers made radios from a razor blade and pencil?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't. That is pretty cool and I wonder how they knew how to do that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I couldn't figure it out. I heard that you can pick up Jupiter's radio storms on an AM radio, I got to try that out<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That does sound neat. I'm going to look and see if there's a particular channel to use.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea, I'd rather listen to that than Nuntii Latini, a weekly news program done in classical latin<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent haha I've heard of that show. They've been streaming that on a Finnish radio station since 1989.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'd rather listen to classic radio dramas online for free<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I've never listened to a radio drama. I'll have to find that website and give a listen.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well I got to go, have a nice day<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How do you think our president is doing?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent If you look at the stats and avoid the so-called news, very well...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is a good way to put it! I think if he released a pop album like the president of indonesia, it may help him with everyone lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I just can picture him singing! the 1st president of Zimbabwe was called banana!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user our president needs a nickname<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Is that because of his hair or skin? I never quite got that. I guess his guest house is bigger than his house house.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user both lol! I have seen the white house but never saw the guest house. I wonder why that is, do you know?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I was wondering the same. Is it attached? He doesn't need it with all his hotels. He didn't make the top 3 wealthiest presidents? They are JFK, Jefferson and Washington according to my recent reading.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user right! I wonder if it is to show off to other countries guests. I think he may be the top if we ever get his tax returns lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm just wondering how they compared a limo to a horse. Weird that before 1805, the runner up in a presidential election was made the VP. That would mean Hillary and Trump would work together! WOW<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be the best reality show ever! I would pay to see that, maybe they could have made the pop album together lol!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Amen! I think that album would be death to one's ears. Did you know that 86% of the land in NV is owned by the government. The rest must be casinos and nuclear test grounds.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a good point, I wonder if the 86 percent is all deserts and wonder what they do there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It may be BLM land leased to farmers and ranchers? Funny that Wikileaks published plans of the gov't plans to destroy them. We should hire Wikileaks to do the work of the CIA and FBI.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right lol they could tell us everything. There should be a wikileaks channel on the radio!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yep! It's wild that soldiers in WWI could make a radio from razor blades and pencils. I could make a drawing of me cutting myself.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user right, I would be drawing that too. I wonder how that worked. Radios are crazy, they pick up storms from jupiter sometimes!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that's all I can get on my AM radio in my car. I've yet to tune into episodes on classic radio dramas like one can get on internet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol me too. I would be interested to listen to a drama on a long road trip. I am glad it is free so I could test it out.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I've been thinking about getting XM but I don't drive that much. I may, as an alternative, invest in buying the Eiffel Tower. There's a guy in France that' sold it twice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right, lol, I wonder how he did it not once, but twice! It was so nice chatting with you, enjoy your night!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you a fan of our president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am a fan of America and want our presidents to do well. Are you a fan of our president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure, he is our elected official and we can't do anything about it so I support him in most things. He isn't one of the three richest ever presidents though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? Who is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user JFK, washington, and jefferson. I wonder how they all got their money<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Slavery. The guest house is bigger than the white house. Seems strange,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yea i was thinking that also, kind of sad to think that but that is our history. I have never seen the guest house, i may have to google it. Have you seen it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have not. I want to google it too. That and the replicas of the white house in france and england.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user for sure, i may want to check those out sometime in my life. Did you know that the government owns 86% of nevada<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent AREA 51! Just kidding, I do not believe in that. Like I would not believe someone trying to sell me the Eiffel Tower.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was thinking the same thing! I heard they sold it twice and people actually bought it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe they used the proceeds to help save the rainforest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would hope so. The norwegian government sends money to save the rainforest, I dont know how much but hopefully it was a lot<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know the president of indonesia has released 3 pop albums? I wonder if they are any good...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user WHAT! I did not know that. Maybe Trump should release one, I would like him a little more lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would worry about the album. It would be rough listening!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ha I wonder what he would sing about.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent HA! He can incorporate his experiences as president into a pop album.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There you go, you got something good going. What would life be like if the runner up became vice president<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Terrible. I am fairly certain there would be blood shed in the white house. That or hilary would move to the guest house or replica house in France.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user For sure lol. He would make her move there or "lock her up" what a crazy time in our history<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Agreed. Nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello - do you follow government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like to stay involved I am afraid ot those deaths over in Maryland and North Virignia<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do too. Wikileaks published the governments plan to destroy Wikileaks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think thats funny and also ironic, seems like Wikileaks is one step ahead of the govenmet<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think that's funny too. Did you know 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I didnt know that, 86% of the land! thats a lot, there must be a couple blacksites there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet lol. In 2006, the US passed a law protecting the government employees from being prosecuted from violating the geneva conventionsl.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that law protects a lot of corrupt polititican I do not agree with it, did you hear about the man that sold the Eiffer tower twice?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not hear about that. How did that happen?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He posed as a government official and found two suckers that feel for it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow that's crazy. In 2008, the Norwegian government donated $1 billion to help save the Amazon rainforest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think thats praiseworth, more goverments should do the same and try to protect out planet, we have limited resources afterall<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. Do you listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do, interesting how the radio works, it carries waves in form of information, it looks simple but theres a lot of science behind the inventiion<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea I love the radio. Jupiter has radio storms so strong they can be heard on Earth.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That must be amazing, a bit boring after a while but I like astonomy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet it's very boring lol. In Canada, all radios must play at least 40% of the music from Canada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What do you think about this law? seems like local talent is supported over there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it's a decent law. I guess I'm not opposed to it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it helps artists grow and develope their carrers, there are some great artist from Canada so I guess its paying offf<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was good talking to you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Good morning.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good morning. Do you trust the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow, that is a very interesting question. In general, it is hard to trust them all of the time, but I do find the history of our government quire interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I believe having a more malleable government, responsive to the people would be better. Do you know if the US government was more responsive in the past?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe when we were a smaller country. It is hard when the US has gotten so large to respond to everyone. Even at the state level it can be challenging.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wish the states had more room to experiment with various policies without the feds or supreme court coming in an making law for the entire nation. If texas wants open carry of automatic weapons, and Massachusetts wants to try single-payer healthcare, then let them, and let people come and go. It's hard to break free when the Feds own most of the land, like they do in Nevada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is hard to believe the government owns 86% of Nevada. I know it is important for our government to balance the ideas of individual freedom and absolute state authority. That is a hard balance to achieve at times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Why should "absolute state authority" be of importance? Like a dictatorship?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well, the government does have laws and policies to enforce which is important. If everyone had the freedom to choose what they wanted to do, it would be chaos. I understand the need for some measure of control by the government, but not too much.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would agree that government should enforce laws, but just in the service of keeping some people from taking away the freedom, property, and life of other people. As my friend says, you've got to protect people from the bad guys (thieves, murderers, etc.)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. Some government bodies do good things, such as the Norweigan government who donated money to help save the Amazon rainforest. That is a government I can respect.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is laudable. Do you know how "donations to help save" something like the rainforest work? Is there a rainforest protection group of forest rangers than keep people from cutting and burning down trees?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hope so. I would hate to think they gave that money for no reason. Speaking of Norway, I wonder if their government system has a President. President is a common title for heads of state.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is. I don't think all "presidents" behave or function like they do/should in the US. It's hard to say that a dictator is really a president. In Europe, there is a distinction between president and prime minister ... which could be a good thing. What do you think?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't know that one is better than the other. All countries do these things differently. I some places the President is really just ceremonial.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Like the Queen? Do you think a ceremonial purpose is a good reason to have a high-profile, highly-paid government official?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe, maybe not. Even when they are ceremonial, it still can mean something to the country I supposed. It could go the opposite where a dictator gives themself the title of president and they have absolute power.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, that just becomes an abuse and distortion of the political reality. North Korea is the "Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea" which is a farce. I'll be no where in NK are policies decided by the people themselves.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well, on a lighter note, the President of Indonesia has released 3 pop albums which I think is quite funny.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it's sad. It means he or she has enough free time to do the work of a pop star. And it's pop music ... I wish entertainment and politics would just get away from each other.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would probably be for the best. You have a lot of information and opinions and I think I should brush up on my political knowledge. I think I will go do that now, thanks for the insight.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, are you interested in politics at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hi, Yes. I listen to a lot of political radio shows.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The radio is definitely censored to some extent though. For example, in Canada at least 40% of music played has to be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wouldn't exactly call that censoring but it is strange, but I guess it's how bands like Sloan and Our Lady Peace became so popular in Canada yet only achieved modest success elsewhere.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder how the culture was back when radios were more simple. In WWII soldiers made radios out of just a razorblade and pencil.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't think radio technology has improved that much as far as amplitude. AM/FM stations still have really short range. A modest car trip and the local stations are already out of range.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user At the same time, we can pick up radio storms from Jupiter, they are strong enough.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh right I have heard of people who do that. I think maybe it's because the transmitters only send the radio waves short wave, where as the radio storms on jupiter are naturally occurring and everything there is massive.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That makes sense. All I know is I don't think radio is enticing enough to pay money for. I go to a website that has thousands of free radio dramas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, free radio is fine. Pay radio just isn't significantly better. I was listening to one show where they were saying the Norwegian government donated a billion dollars to save the rainforests in the amazon. I wish other countries would take that approach.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting, a lot of radio stations have their own agenda which is nice. A finnish radio station broadcasts a weely program entirely in classical latin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I doubt they get many listeners, who can understand classical latin? There certainly is some weird stuff on the radio. I heard this one pop song and it turned out it was by the president of Indonesia!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Presidents are certainly hard to take seriously when they do things like that. Then again, hard to be taken less seriously than President Banana, the first president of Zimbabwe.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm sure he had ways of dealing with people who laughed at his name. The Indonesian president / pop star released 3 albums while in office so it wasn't even a one time thing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's interesting. I think a lot of changes have been made in general with presidents. In the US, the vice president used to just be the runner up.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Imagine if they still did that now. Trump would love it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh I'm sure he would. Speaking of Trump, it's amazing he isn't even one of the three wealthiest presidents in history.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? I never would have guessed that. I know George Washington was really rich, so was JFK.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe they refer to the three wealthiest based off of inflation, it would have to be like that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably. I can't imagine 3 having more actual dollars than Trump. Apparently he wants to create his own "news" network since he hates CNN so much. If he did that he'd probably drop further on the list.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm sure he is, I heard it's in his plans to destroy Wikileaks too, which was ironically outed by Wikileaks. Anyways, it was nice chatting with you, have a good night!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello! How are you today?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I good. Trump has done some really off the wall things. Do you like him?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't, do you? He just threw NATO into chaos too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I do like him. But that's probably a subject we would never agree on. Did you know that the first president of zimbabwe was called president banana?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'll admit he does some good things and some bad things, but every president has been there haha. That is very interesting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very true.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Haha that is too funny. Do you know who were the top three wealthiest presidents?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, who were they?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user They were JFK, Washington, and Jefferson. I wonder how much money they had!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if that's adjusted for inflation. Because I would have thought it would be Trump.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe it is who knows. I think if Trump released 3 pop albums in office like the President of Indonesia, he'd be the wealthiest lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Don't laugh that might be coming next. Did you know that until 1805 the runner up became vice president. That would mean we would have Trump as president and Hillary as vice president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe it's a good thing they went away with that. I'm sure Hillary wouldn't like the situation.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that would be a bad match.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm sure! Do you like to listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sure. Did you know Canada requires their radio stations to play at least 40% of their music to be Canadian?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't know that! They probably have to play a lot of Beiber because of that lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe they just don't have many good artists. But yet a lot of good groups come from Canada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well anyways, I had a great chat, have a good one!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too. You have a good day also.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thank you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, how are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello there, I am well thank you, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am well too, thanks. Did you know Trump is not a top 3 president, in terms of wealth?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I think I had read that, I bet he thinks he is though. Do you know who the top three are?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think it is Washington, Jefferson, and JFK. I wouldn't have guessed those three.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think you are right, yeah I wouldn't have either. Do you know who the last president to speak a foreign language was?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do not know. Who was it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess it was FDR, I would think there was more than just one. I think it should something all presidents should be able to do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Agreed. I would think being able to talk to others in their language would be helpful. At least they are not called president banana!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah isn't that funny! I think it was because his name was really close to that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think we have our own unique president though... The guest house is bigger than the white house!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hey that is a good call, he sure does seem unique! And that is pretty wild, I wonder what the guests that come to stay think.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if he will ever make a pop album?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would be pretty upset if my president had enough time to make 3 albums while in charge of the country.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too! Plus, who wants to hear their president sing? Did you see where in 1805 the runner up was the VP?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Agreed, and yeah wouldn't that be something if we went back to that system. Talk about a reality show.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am not sure if we would be able to function as a government in today's society with Trump and Hilary, but it's worth giving them a chance.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I think I would agree, but who knows, maybe it would work better than what we have now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you listen to the radio? There is a website where you can listen to old classic radio... kind of cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I do when I am in my car. That sounds really cool, I'm sure there are a ton of good ones.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, how are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good. How are you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm great. Do you follow government much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably not as much as I should. Did you know there was only one U.S. President with a Phd?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sounds about right. I figure most of them don't really like school much. The last president to speak a foreign language was FDR.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is interesting. Do you think it odd that while many countries use the term president, the role of the president is different?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I believe that. The powers vary with the constitution of the country. Generally though, I expect them to have money. The three wealthiest presidents in US history were JFK, Washington, and Jefferson. Surprised that Trump didn't make the list.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That does surprise me. I would think Trump would make the list for sure. I think countries where the president is mainly ceremonially, such as royalty, would have a hard time listing their wealthiest presidents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess the real power lies elsewhere. The US president's guest house is larger than the White House. Trump must be disappointed by that, unless he plans to rent out the guest house like a hotel. Or maybe AirBnB.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well that is interesting. I had no idea. Maybe we could all have bigger houses if the U.S. government did away with income tax like Monaco.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder where Monaco gets money for the government then. Some governments seem to do better than others. In 2008 the government of Norway donated $1billion to help save the Amazon rainforest. I don't know how much that helps, but it's the right idea.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Monaco makes enough money off of their casino, and they were able to do away with income tax in 1869. It is nice that the government of Norway has enough money to donate since some governments have had to be bailed out like the U.S. in 1895 by JP Morgan.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Until 1805, the runner-up in a US presidential election became the Vice President. That system would make for some interesting pairings these days. I wonder how it would work in Indonesia. Would the VP get to release a couple of pop albums?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am not sure if that would work in today's current state of affairs. Maybe the VP would get to release a couple of pop albums, and if the chicago alt-rock radio station's djs didn't reveal the VP was hte singer, one of the songs could become the most requested track like the hanson song which was.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sneaky DJs! They knew what they were doing! Probably wouldn't work if the songs were in Latin though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It might make a little more difficult depending on the audience, but you never know. I mean look at one of the most popular radio acts of the 1930s that was a ventriloquist.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user On the radio. Hm. Defeats the whole point of being a ventriloquist. I guess the content of the patter was funny?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am thinking it must have been. I wonder if it was as interesting as Tom Wolfe's books, like the "The Right Stuff" and the "Bonfire of the Vanities?"<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Tom Wolfe lived a pretty good life. I haven't read his books, but many of them got made into films. Well, I've enjoyed chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think his books were a stark contrast to Serge Martin's book "The Agony of Modernization: Labor and Industrialization in Spain." It's been nice chatting with you as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thanks again!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No problem. It was nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello. Could you imagine if our president had biker group that was almost a military arm and really supported him? That is what the Night Wolves are in Russia as they are pro-Putin and Kremlin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's not too surprising that Putin uses the Night Wolves as proxy enforcers, it's been happening throughout history<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The poor Slovakians just want to be free of military occupation especially from Russia (or the old Soviet Union) and then they have to deal with it again with these biker gangs.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's interesing that Slovak forces collaborated with the Nazis and fought against the Soviet forces during WWiI, no love lost between them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's a good point. The old Soviet Union has a long memory as well. With the Night Wolves assisting, you have this mobile, quasi-military force that will intimidate from Slovakia to the Crimea.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It seems to be pretty effective, I'm surprised there hasn't been more coverage on the Night Wolves paraded through Crimera<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is really a crazy region with global ramifications. Poland refused the Night Wolves entry through their lands. That said,, many countries the group want to traverse through have issues finding legal justification to prevent it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's interesting how motorcycle gangs are prevalent not just in the US but in Europe as well<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I thought that as well. I don't want to imply that Russia is the only place with questionable activity. Did you know that a guy pretending to be with the French government actually sold the Eiffel Tower twice?!?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Lol no, that's hilarious. I wonder how much he sold the Eiffel tower for<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a good question. Imagine the person trying to come and claim it with their bill of sale in tow.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He should try and sell Nevada, 86% of the land in owned by the US government<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good luck with that! Maybe that is where the government is planning to destroy Wikileaks, which we all know will end up on that site anyway.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Or maybe the Gov't is using AM radios to harvest the energy from Jupiter's radio storms<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I might take that over forcing us to listen to US music. In Canada, a law mandates that nearly half of all music content on the radio has to be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Still it's not as worse as listening to the all classical latin new program Nuntii Latini in Finland<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good point. I'd probably stick with some classic radio dramas. I hear you can listen to thousands of those for free online.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds good but you won't be able to listen to them if all you have is a radio made from a razorblade and pencil<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Who listens to it that way? Can that be done?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The soldiers in WWII did and called them foxhole radios<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's really cool and so innovative. Not sure if it is as innovative as say a president releasing pop albums while in office! LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Don't give Trump any ideas. Well I got to go, nice chatting with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi, what do you know about the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello! I think government is interesting, they can have too much power though. Did you know 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the US government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user interesting, i wonder what they do with all that land really<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The government also had plans to destroy Wikileaks, I think Wikileaks actually exposed them, ironically.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yesh go figure, they are so good at unfolding these things<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent On the other hand they get played sometimes, I remember a man once impersonated a government official and sold the eiffel tower twice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user he must have been really smart to be able to ddo that twice<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Governments aren't all terrible though. A decade ago the norwegian government donated money to help save the rainforest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah that is really nice effort on their part<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I heard about it on the radio so maybe it isn't 100% true. Do you use the radio often?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i do from time to time. apparently you can catch jupiter's storms on am<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's interesting! I prefer to use a website where I listen to a lot of classic radio dramas for free.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is a nice option actually. do you know any latin?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do! I learned a little bit from this Finnish radio station, they host a weekly news program entirely in classical latin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I really wonder how many listeners they have. you know how soldiers fashioned radion in WWII?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent My grandfather told me they made them just using a razorblade and pencil, I can't imagine how they'd do that!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah very creative. did you know the president of indonesia is a pop star?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didn't know that! Although I do remember he released albums while in office, that seems unprofessional.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah, i also wonder if they are any good<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet they at least earned some money, maybe he could be richer than JFK, Washington, and Jefferson, those were the three most wealthy presidents in U.S. history.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh I am sure they did and they are usually set for life after that. nice chat<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know much about climate change?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know a little about climate change.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Evidently, the French President is really into it as an activist. I heard that it did not go so well with him because his environment minister resigned.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do not know anything about the French. Why did his environment minister resign over that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He said he didn't feel like the government was answering the problems properly. He felt like they were too lax.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hm. I will have to read more about that then!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Speaking of the government, have you ever heard about the story about the guy who impersonated a govt official and sold the Eiffel Tower not once, but twice!?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nope! I have not heard about that Eiffel Tower guy. I guess the French have a lot of problems.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Sounds like it. Who do you think the 3 wealthiest presidents were?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Washington, Jackson and Lincoln?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You got one right. They were JFK, Washington and jefferson.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I should have known JFK. That just seems right now that you say it. I knew it his wife came from money. I wonder how they all came to be wealthy.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not sure but the US President's guest house is larger than the White House. I wonder if it is on Air BNB. LOL.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That would be nice! I wonder who is in the massive guest house now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too! Probably not the President of Indonesia. I hear he has been busy working on his pop albums. He has released 3 while in office. Who has the time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess the President of Indonesia has the time LOL I want to know why the President of Zimbabwe was called president banana...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What? I wouldn't care for that if I were him! I heard this the other day that the runner up in the 1805 election automatically became the VP.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see that did not work out so well or something since they stopped letting the runner-up be vice president LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user True! The government is a funny thing. They own 86% of the land in Nevada. I wonder if they own Vegas.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe they do since that is where all of the money seems to be made there. 85% is a ton of land.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It was great chatting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same to you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Night.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, Do you listen to the radio much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good Afternoon! I listen to a lot of talk radio (sports/politics) while I'm at work - passes the time and keeps me informed. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I do too! Its a great way to pass the time, and it does keep you updated on the latest! Did you know Jupiter has radio storms that can be picked up on am radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder what Jupiter Radio Storms (Great name for a band!) would sound like - static, ambient house music, Classical Latin?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol, I don't know. That's interesting. I was thinking hard windy howling sounds!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent My kid is doing a science report on the planets and I learned that Jupiter is made up of mainly gasses, not a lot of solid matter. So I'd imagine the storms to sound like flatulence...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that sounds right! i hope your son gets an A on his report!! I find the solar system so interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Space, the final frontier..... Super interesting and vast beyond comprehension. They've sent radio waves out into space in hopes an intelligent life form picks them up and understands them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really, Wow, how cool is that! Thinking of radio's isn't it interesting that the soldiers in WW2 made radios out of razor blades and pencils?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I suppose the receiver part of the radio is fairly simple, to harness and translate the signal - but transmitting that signal over a vast distance is pretty complicated? I don't really know, just theorizing after learning a radio can be made with MacGuyver supplies<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Smart as well as brave men in WW2! They called them foxhole radios. Would you enjoy listening to a free radio station that played classic radio drama?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do listen to some podcasts that tell tales of police dramas, crime solving cases - those are pretty interesting, so yes - probably!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I would try it too! Not sure how long I could stay on it. Crime solving cases might be pretty upsetting. How do you feel about Wikileaks publishing plans for the government to destroy it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm on the fence with Wikileaks - and how it had an affect on the 2016 election. I also get confused if that is Assange or Snowden?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, It hard to know what to believe? There is so much out there that is untrue.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I suspect that they (government) want it that way - to keep us confused and not sure who to trust or whats true - that just my conspiracy theory.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think your right. Better to keep people confused, so you don't know whats really going on.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm pretty jaded when it comes to government, politics, the president, congress, etc. Today it seems that reality is stranger than fiction....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very Strange, Some of the stuff that is reported is unreal! Like the name President Banana for the first name in Zimbabwe!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Banana is a pretty good nickname. Do you have a favorite nick name for our president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I don't! interesting. Think he's too busy to make any pop albums! lol Good chat!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Great chatting with you too - have a great day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user I've never heard of the Windrush generation. But hey, at least we aren't the only country that has immigration problems<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah of course, there is so much movement around the world in terms of immigration. Do you know anything about wikileaks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A little, that was the Julian Assange thing wasn't it? The government owns 865 of the land in Nevada? Thats a little odd<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it was him and they actually managed to publish documents that showed how the government is trying to destroy them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Good for them, somebody has to be able to find out the stuff the government is trying to cover up<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess yeah. ANd about Nevada, I wonder if they ever plan to do anything with all that land<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you see the part about the us passing laws to protect gov employees who violate the geneva convention from being prosecuted? That seems... corrupt<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It does seem, those laws are in place for a reason and the us employees should not be the exception<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm going to have to look more into the guy who sold the eiffel tower twice. That must be quite the story<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent hahha I know, twice, that is just amazing. Did you hear about the Norwegians trying to save the amazon?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I doubt we are doing anything, so good for them. We can pick up am radio signals from storms on Jupiter? Thats amazing, its so far away<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is really cool. Have you ever listened to Canadian radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't think so, not on purpose anyway. Very nationalistic that so much of their music has to be Canadian<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I guess it is all about supporting national talent. Do you know any latin?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Just a couple of words, do you? I did used to listen to old radio programs when we were kids<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I do not but there is a radio in Finland that plays their news in latin<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know people can be very inventive, but making a radio out of a razorblade and a pencil is pretty cool<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is pretty cool, those soldiers must have been skillful. WOnder what channels it picked up though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right? Probably just military communications. Couldn't have had much range<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah most likely. Do you listen to radio dramas?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user When I was a kid we listened to some old stuff. Now the kids can watch movies in the car. Good talk!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, do you listen to the radio much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not really. When I was younger I did. You?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same, mainly podcasts now for me. But I hear there is a Finnish radio station that plays a show entirely in classical Latin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess they must have a dedicated group of followers. The news in Latin? Odd.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't know exactly what they talk about, and even if I heard it I still would be lost. LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There is a website where you can listen to thousands of episodes of classic radio dramas for free. You could listen to that! I don't know how many people actually do.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a cool offering, not exactly up my alley, but neat nonetheless<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Many countries limit content, so it's good that the Internet is there. According to Canadian law, all radios are required to have at least 40% of the music played be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is shocking that sort of "censorship" if you will, is still allowed. I guess they are jamming out to Celine Dion all day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Rush, Neil Young, stuff like that. I understand countries want to protect their markets. Still, the Internet will change things.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is a giant force in providing content, access to everything is now at our fingertips. Streaming music alone is changing the face of radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you follow the presidency much? I'm surprised that Trump is not the richest president in history.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user A little, I agree! Either the data is outdated, or inflation is accounted for. Pretty shocking still to read that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess land ownership was a lot of it for Washington and Jefferson. JFK got money from his father.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ahh, very good point. I didnt think about land ownership as being part of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The president's guest house is larger than the White house. I wonder how Trump feels about that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user When I read that I thought the same thing. Part of me thinks he would be angry that he doesnt have the bigger house.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He could rent out the guest house. Put up a TRUMP sign. Make enough money to become the wealthiest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It could be the new Trump hotel. Staying in the guest house would be a cool experience. Maybe they should sell nights to pay down the national debt.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's a thought! Anyway, thanks for the chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have a good day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you follow what is happening in Colombia ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have a little bit. The problem in South America is that all these socialist countries are realizing too late that socialism is a terrible way to govern!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user On how is socialism related to the peace accord with the FARC ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A lot of Colombian government is rooted in the communist uprising that occurred about 30 or 40 years ago. So now they want a right wing candidate, Duque. But unfortunately, his only experience is as a one term senator.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user But reversing Santo's peace accord would mean war again with FARC, is it worth it ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably not. I love the freedom we have in the United States especially when you look at China and realize that the word censorship is actually censored!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, China's censorship is problematic, before internet, western world used radio programs to send uncensored news to the communist countries.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the radio used to be such a useful communication device, especially for entertainment. Shockingly, a ventriloquist was one of the most popular radio acts of the 1930s!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user People used their imagination at the time, radio dramas were very popular, you can still listen to them on a website. Do you still listen to the AM band ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do for sports talk now. It is very interesting to me that a radio station translates solar activity into sound and anyone can listen to the "music of the sun."<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Or you could listen to a radio storm on Jupiter. It feels weird that phenomenon's so far away can be picked up by a simple AM radio, that I only use for traffic news.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, I know it is wild! All that advancement and back about 70 years ago half the allocated music time on radio was dedicated to Bing Crosby recordings!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was good or maybe he paid radios to play his music, I suspect the president of Indonesia to do the same thing with his 3 pop music albums.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is wild! What do you make of all the government shutdown news? They make such a big deal about it, but its actually happened 17 times in the last 37 years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It think it is part of the media circus of our time, politicians like the drama more than an efficient government.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, totally. We just have career politicians now, with the exception of Trump. In fact, only one US president has ever had a PhD!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And who was it ? I am always surprised by presidents, like Washington being of the richest presidents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, has to be adjusted for inflation I think. Woodrow Wilson is the only president with the PhD.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hope it was adjusted for inflation, otherwise Washington would have been richer that the King of England.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha, good point! Speaking of rich governments, Monaco was able to get rid of their income tax all the way back in 1869 because the casino was generating so much revenue.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And Norway, who is also rich because of its oil, donated 1 billion to save the rain forest. Great talking to you !<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey did you know the guest house is bigger than the white house itself<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I did. I am not surprised. I did not know there is only one president with a phd.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no I don't know, that is sad actually, do you think President Banana of Zimbabwe has a PHD?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, can you believe the Chinese government has censored the word "censorship"?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol no that definitely sounds dangerous. Did you know the indonesia president maked pop records, can you imagine trump doing that?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, he is way to busy for that. lol. How would you like to live in Monaco?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user well I heard they don't have incomem tax so that sounds kind of awesome haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes, Do you like the idea of listening to the sun's music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha does the sun play music? How do you listen to it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent There is a radio station that translates solar activity into sound. I think it would be very interesting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya I guess you can pickup Jupiter radio storms on your AM radio, Ill test that out later!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh really Jupiter too. I like that. I guess Hanson was a hidden hits band.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya I dont know who likes hanson haha, have you donated money to help the rainforest? Norway donated 1 billion dollars<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really, that is wonderful. Yes, I would.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user one thing I wouldn't do is try to sell the eiffel tower like some impersonator did<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent For sure, Its surprising that Booth would be in the first presidents inauguration picture with Lincoln.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya that is a scary pic, did you know the Presidential runner up used to become the VP?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I see that. Interesting. Bing Crosby was so popular in 1948, I love his Christmas songs.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya he was a massive star, definitely a bigger star that the pop star indonesian president, haven't heard any of his songs haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol, I haven't either.I guess ventriloquists were quite popular in radio in the 1930's.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya I don't know how that is possible, I just think its crazy that you can use radio waves to transfer information like that, it still blows my mind<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I feel the same way. We can't see it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user nope but it stil surrounds us, have you ever tried to build a foxhole radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, have you? How about this 5G? Need more research on it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya you can make a radio out of a pencil and razor apparently, and no I don't know how that works haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent How do you feel about Merkel in Germany? Do you think she's doing a good job?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm not sure I don't really follow politics, what about you?<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Did you know that Wikileaks published the government's plans to destroy Wikileaks? I guess that didn't work out so well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, didn't know that. Talk about spoiler alert. I heard a guy in France illegally sold the Eiffel Tower not just once, but twice.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder who was dumb enough to buy it? It would have been funnier if it was the same person both times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, absolutely! Ha! Not only that but how come nobody in the French government noticed the impersonator? Maybe he was some sort of look-alike. Not to change countries, but did you hear that 86% of Nevada is owned by the U.S. Government? That's sounds a little scary. What do they have stored there?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard about that. I know there's a few military bases there, and area 51 is there I believe too. So there's probably a lot of missle test sites out in the desert there. So that might equate into some of that percentage.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No doubt in my mind! Still, it sounds like a secret they don't want us to find out. That's just another example of the balance between the idea of government authority and the principle of our individual freedom.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is true. They're always seem to be up to shady stuff, just like in 2006 they passed legislation that would protect Government employees from being prosecuted for violating the Geneva Conventions.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, that does sound shady to me as well. Geneva conventions are international law. Well, I guess we need government jobs to stay safe.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess so, why can't our government do good like the Norwegian government? In 2008 they donated $1bn to help save the Amazon rain forest!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, right? How cool was that? The Amazon rain forest is very important to our whole ecology system of the earth we live on. You're right, why aren't we more like the Norwegians? Good Question.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Our government waste money on things like making the president's guest house bigger than the White House!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, that's all sorts of crazy, they should be spending money on things that make a difference like renovating the rain forest to make our planet more stable. Each government has it's own kind of constitution and philosophy and governing principles but ours is in need of an adjustment.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, maybe we should have a president that releases pop albums like Indonesia's president has. He's released 3 while in office. Could you imagine if one of our past few presidents released an album?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hey, that would be awesome if Trump would release a Mexican salsa dancing album where he dances and sings. That would go viral in an instant on YouTube. That would be a blast. The radio stations would pick it up and carry the sound through space and when the radio waves hit an electrical conductor, it would be transformed back to the original. How cool would that be? I'd watch it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be pretty epic. Did you know that up until 1805 in the U.S. that the runner up in the presidential election automatically became the Vice President? Could you imagine that happening today? I think it would force both parties to work together more.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I agree that's probably why they changed it! By the way, did you know that there's a website that has free radio dramas from the old days? Isn't that fascinating?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would like to listen to that. It would help broaden the imagination listening to dramas instead of watching them. I could listen to it on the foxhole radio I made using a razor blade and pencil. My grandpa showed me how they made them in WWII.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, that is cool, for real. I'd like to learn how to make a foxhole radio, myself. I also heard that a Finnish radio station broadcasts "Nuntii Latini" weekly news since 1989. I guess you'd have to know Latin to understand it though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I was fascinated as a kid when he showed me how to make it. I would be lost listening to that radio station! Did you know that in Canada that radio stations are required by law to have at least 40% of their music played be Canadian?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, sounds pretty biased to me<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user But at least there's some decent Canadian artist. Well I have to get going, it was nice chatting with you. Have a great day!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello! Are you interested in the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am! I think the radio is awesome! How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love the radio! Have you heard about Canadian law regarding the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Don't they have to play like 40 percent of songs by Canadians?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, that I wonder if they were playing too much of other countries artists.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Or they wanted more Justin Bieber lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very true. That is a possibility. Have you ever heard of a Jupiter radio storm?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I wish I did though! That would be so fun to hear on the AM radio!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, it is crazy that you can hear it on an AM radio. I wonder what it sounds like?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Probably better than most music played these days lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Very true. Have you ever heard of a foxhole radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wasn't that created in World War Two soldiers? I wonder how they were made?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Somehow soldiers made them using razerblades and pencils. I am not sure how that makes a radio though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm not sure either, crazy though! Have you ever listened to a radio drama?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am not interested but I know there is a free website for them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Same here. I think there are thousands of them you can listen to on it!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Maybe I will listen to them one day. Do you know any latin?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't. Do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do not. But there is apparently a weekly news program conducted entirely in classical latin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hmm I guess I'll have to learn some Latin haha. Great chat with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Me too. I will go look into it. Have a good day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi do you listen to the radio much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, yes I do actually. Did you know Bill Murray voice the human torch in the fantastic four radio show?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Cool did not know that If you turn the radio to AM you might catch Jupiter's storms<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Neat, I would like to hear that. There is a radio station that can translate solar activity to sound<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user wow cool. Do you know what foxholes are?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hmm I am not sure, Foxhole radios were something of the past, were they not?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah they were. They were radios that soldiers made using razorblades and pencils during WWII<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent WOw I wonder how that works actually. A hanson song once became the most popular one because the DJ's did not reveal the band<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is very creative of them. Do you ever listen to Canadian radios?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hmm not a lot but sometimes. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do osmetimes only. Did you know they are required to play 40% Canadian music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow they must really want to support their local singers. Good for them, they have some nice up and coming singers too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that is true. Do you ever listen to radio dramas?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I cannot say that I do actually. Did you know one of the most popular radio acts was a ventriloquist back in 1970s?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user WOw did not know that. Well if you ever want to there is a channels that broadcasts them for free<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh that is nice, free on top of that. Do you know much about the presidents?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Hm I know some stuff, like in Guatemala close family of the president are not allowed to run too<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is interesting. THe only US president that has had a PhD was WIlson<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I guess you do not need one after all. DO you know who the wealthiest presidents are in us history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do not think I know that actually. I know LIncoln was the first president that was photographed for his inaguration<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is neat. It is Jefferson, JFK and Washington as the wealthiest three<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Have you ever been to Slovakia?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello - I have not. Have you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I haven't, but I have been the the Czech Republic.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know the only US president to have a PHD is Woodrow Wilson?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I did not know that. I would think there would be a higher education standard for US presidents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would think so also. In Guatemala, close relatives of former presidents cannot legally run for president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is very interesting. The president of Indonesia released 3 pop albums while running in office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's hilarious. Can you imagine if Trump was a pop star?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be very funny. I can only imagine some songs he would release.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Haha for sure. Lincoln was the first president to be photographed for his inauguration.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's very surprising as I believe the camera was inverted years earlier. The top three wealthiest presidents were jfk, washington and jefferson.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think Trump will probably be on that list as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Absolutely. I wonder if he is the most wealthy president we have had.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet he is. 5 presidents have been elected while still losing the popular vote.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats interesting. US politics can be very confusing. Up until 1805 the runner up in the election automatically became the vice president. Can you imagine Hillary Clinton as Trumps Vice president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree - that would be crazy. The last US president to speak a foreign language was FDR.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would think foreign languages standards should be at least semi fluent in certain category's for the president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would think so, but with the translators, maybe it's a non-issue.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's true. The first president of Zimbabwe was called president banana. Strange.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is very strange. Did you know the Chinese government has censored the word censorship?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That seems very controlling. I have heard the Chinese government can be very dictating.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think so too. It was great talking to you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, How are you? Do you listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello yes i sometimes listen to it, do you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, sometimes, not as much as I use to. I am usually using something on my phone<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I hear jupiter storms can be heard on th Am radio station<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, isn't that crazy! I would like to hear that!! Soldiers in WW2 made radios out of razor blades and pencils<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is very impressive! How does that even work lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not sure, they called them foxhole radios. Did you know in Canada, they have to play at least 40% Canadian?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I have heard that, I wonder what canadian music sound like. I saw theres a website you can go to to listen to radio dramas too for free!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I would like to try that! Isn't it interesting that Wikileaks published the governments plans to destroy Wikileaks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is pretty funny. The gov owns 86% of Nevada<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, thinking it must be the military! Have you heard of area 51?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I have heard of it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Pretty interesting!! I love the idea that the Norwegian government has donated 1billion to help save the rain forest!!Very cool<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is very nice, I think all the countries should be donating to the amazon forest. There are still undiscovered animals and insects in there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, they have done alot of research their! They probably know cures and not saying anything to the general public yet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hopefully! I guess they might just be doing more testing on it lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm glad we still don't use the runner up as our vice-president like they did in 1805.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah that could be very weird. I dont think it would work with our current situation lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know never!! ha, There hasn't been a president who wasn't either a democrat or republican since 1853. Seem like a long time ago!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow thats a cool fun fact. Did you know the president guest house is bigger than the white house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, I did, that's interesting!! Did you know the Eiffel Tower was sold twice?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is crazy! Hows does someone even try that lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Impersonating a government official!! Crazy!! Good chat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Great chat, thanks for talking with me.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you know many facts about the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Some here and there. Like wikileaks published the governments plans to shut them down. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice! A man in France impersonated a government official and managed to sell the Eiffel tower not once, but twice! lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow! Id hire him in a heartbeat. That is some savvy and salesmanship there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No doubt! In 2008 the Norwegian government donated $1 billion dollars to help save the amazon rainforest. Nice!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is awesome! I love seeing governments getting active in saving our planet. After all its the only one we really have right now<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the US government.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It must be Area 51. Where they keep all the good stuff. LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol yes! Do you want to talk about presidents now?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent As long as we can start with the first president of Zimbabwe.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ok. What was his name? I'm not familiar with him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent His last name is really Banana. No Joke.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol That's great! The president of Indonesia has released 3 pop albums while in office!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if he has a cool name to, like a real name.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user lol The US presidents guest house is larger than the white house. Wonder why that is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am guessing it has to house multiple heads of state and their families at once?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds about right. Up until 1805 the US runner up in the presidential elections automatically became vice president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can you imagine if we still did that?!?! What would our government be like?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It would to total chaos. Do you know who the top 3 wealthiest presidents in American history were?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent JFK, Washington and Jefferson, I think. But, on another note I must get going, work calls. Its been great chatting! Have a great day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ok thanks! Have a great day as well!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey can you guess who the top 3 wealthiest presidents are?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hm. I'd guess JFK, Washington and Trump?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha you would think trump would be there but nope its jfk, washington and jefferson so you were close!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice bit of presidential trivia! Here's one for you: What was the name of the first president of Zimbabwe? Hint...think fruit...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha I can only guess President Banana? Maybe he has a VP named VP Plantain haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice one! You are good at this! I'll try harder to stump you. The President of Indonesia relased 3 Pop albums while in office. What were the names of his children?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha thats one I don't know, but I do know that if trump made 3 albums with his friend kanye that would be insane!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'd buy it! Heck, I'd produce it if I could. Then maybe the Pres would invite me to visit at his presidential guest house.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha ya isn't the guest house bigger than the white house itself? I'd rather stay there if its bigger than haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I that that was where the vice president lived. You know, if the election rules that were in place back before 1805 were still valid, our current VP would be Hillary Clinton. Wouldn't that be a hoot...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haah ya that would be so much drama! I would watch that tv show but I'm glad thats not our world haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That would make a great radio drama too! You know there is a website where you can listen to old radio dramas for free?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no I didn't know that, have you listened to any of those? Are they any good<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not bad, but I have an old radio, which makes the audio quality poor. My radio was made by my grandfather during WWII used radio blade and pencil. He called it his foxhole radio. It gets US stations only. No Canadian ones...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is crazy do you know how that works exactly? I also watn to tune into AM radio and listen to Jupiters radio storms haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sounds out of this world! I'll bet it is a lot better than that Finnish radio station that plays news in Latin!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is crazy, but it sounds pretty boring I'd rather listen to Jupiter's storms on AM haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet is sounds like the Moody Blues! Id like to go there someday. If it is anything like Necada, 86 percent is already owned by the goverment.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya that is a lot of land, btw do you know who the top 3 richest presidents were?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent If I would answer that, then the IRS would come looking for me! I read that on Wikileaks, right after teh story where they claim they have the government's plan for how they plan to destroy Wikileaks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha good point, that is scary, and yes the top 3 are washington, jefferson, and jfk somehow<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thanks you too, watch out for the IRS and President Banana of Zimbabwe!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user What do you think of the Government? there sure is a lot of speculation these days<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah a little too much actually. Not sure what goes on behind those curtains, I guess that is why wikileaks came about<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, Wikileaks sure puts the government in a tough spot, afterall the government planned to destroy it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah too bad. There is a lot when it comes to politics and government really. Apparently the government owns 86% percent of the land in Nevada<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow 86% thats a lot of land, I wonder if they use it, they should sell some of it and cover the deficit the government has<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, well, most of it is desert land so I don't know.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Really? I guess theres not much use to those lands then, a man once sold the Eiffel tower twice, that is a great con man!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent How do you get away with that twice. He must have been a mastermind<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know right? I get it once but two times that must require a high level of skill.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. US now protects it workers from persecution if they go against the convention of geneva<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess thats a good thing as anyone can make mistakes and workers need to feel protected,do you listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do from time to time. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do as well, its amazing how radio waves carry info and then we are able to hear those waves, tech just amazes me<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah. In canada in order to stay in operation radios are required to play 40% of canadian music<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess thats a great law, it really supports local talent<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah for sure. There is a free website where you can listen to radio dramas. Do you like those?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do like them, I will search for that site soon, there is also a radiio station that transmits a news program in latin<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder how many listeners they have.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I bet they have plenty the show has been around since 1989 so they must have a good segment of people, sees boring to me though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess because we do not speak it. Do you know how the radio waves are emitted?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No not really, the science behing radios just amuse me and dont really know how they work<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is a lot pf physics involved in there. It was nice chatting with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey there partner. Do you like learning about the government? I think it's so fascinating to learn how various policies are enforced.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I do like learning about the government.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Awesome. I think the ideal government should have a delicate balance between the principle of individual freedom and the idea of absolute state authority.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is certainly not the case in china where they censored the word censorship.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I feel bad for the Chinese people. I love the Norwegian government for donating $1 billion to save the rain forest.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That was mighty kind of them. Did you know our government has shut down 17 times over the past 37 years. 3 times in 1977.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That seems inefficient. Kind of frustrating actually. I find it funny that WikiLeaks published the government's plans to destroy WikiLeaks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is funny. I also find it funny that JP morgan bailed the US government out in 1895. They are probably still paying him back. Lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they probably are. Wonder what the president's take on that is? The top three wealthiest presidents of been JFK, Washington, and Jefferson.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would have thought trump would have been on that list.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would've thought so too. Maybe he just needs to release some pop albums like the president of Indonesia.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I could see that out of trump. Anything to make a little more money or get a little bit more power. Lol.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I could definitely see him doing that. Did you know the first president of Zimbabwe was called President banana?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is funny.. Lol. In Guatemala close relatives of former presiedents cannot run for the presidency.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if that is a good thing or bad thing? A man in France impersonated a government official and manage to sell the Eiffel tower twice! I wonder how much he made?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent really that is just mind blowing to be quite honest. Woodrow wilson was the only president with a phd. That is also surprising.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's very surprising indeed. In 2006 the US passed legislation that would protect government employees from being prosecuted for violating the Geneva Convention's. Probably for the Iraq war.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Im not to familiar with the geneva convention. I did know that FDR was the last president to spak a foreign language fluently.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I want to know what language that was! Sometimes I like listening to foreign music on the radio. It's not as easy in Canada though because 40% of the music has to be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I also heard that the most popular radio act in 1930s was a ventriloquist act.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is hard to believe. I don't speak Latin but if I did I would listen to the program that the Finland radio broadcast. It was nice talking with you today. Have a great one.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nice talking with you as well. Have a lovely day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Do you still get a chance to listen to the radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello there, I do, I found a really good local station that I like, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do. Did you know that the storms in Jupiter are so strong that they can be heard on an AM radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I have read about that before, that is really amazing!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree. Were you aware that you can make a radio with very little?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think so, I think soldiers in WWI make them using a razorblade and a pencil.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes they did. They called them foxhole radios.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good call! I think any information or any form of entertainment they could get was well welcomed.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm sure it was. Have you heard any of the old radio dramas that were very popular beforeTV?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No I don't think I have, but I do know there is a website where you can listen to tons of them for free.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user There is. I wonder if they still hold up?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet they do, but still are dated. I think there are some real gems hidden in that bunch.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You're probably right. Did you know that by law 40% of music played on Canadian radio has to be Canadian?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think I have heard about that, sounds pretty funny, but I bet the Canadian bands like it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I would imagine so. So strange that they had to make a law. Are you interested in politics at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am not, I think most of politics is just fighting to stay in position, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree with you but I also think it's important so I do have an interest. Did you know that until 1805 the runner up in a presidential race became the VP? Can you imagine that now?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is very true. And yeah isn't that wild, it would be a reality show for sure!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It would be crazy. On the lighter side, do yo know what the first president of Zimbabwe was called?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think he was called president Banana! But, I think it was because his actual name was that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was! I'm not sure if that was his born name.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Are you comfortable talking about the government?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sure, I'm up for talking about anything. What do you think of our president and our govt?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What do you think about the statement, the people want to be kept secure and safe, but don't want to know how it is done<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that it makes us guilty of all kinds of things that we might not want to take part in. We're adults. We can hear the truth.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user True but lately, I have been growing feeling that ignorance is bliss to an extent. A bit worried where the current government is going<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am worried too. Too much learning on the job. The Oval Office should be for those with experience. Too much is at stake.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I kind of which they provided more qualified presidential candidates. The last elections choices were for me trying to see who was less worse. Choosing presidents shouldn't be like that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, very frustrating. Money has coopted the entire process. Now the candidate is sold to the highest bidder. I don't have enough money to buy a meaningful vote.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user In regards to voting, it is sad how low the voter turnout is in the US<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is quite low. Votes are apathetic and believe they have no faith in the system. How can that be changed? I wonder.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I mean other countries have 90% turnup so...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know that Australia requires people to vote. That is a good way to get a govt of the people.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I mean I like how the current government balanced freedom with absolute state authority, but the dominance of only 2 party has lead to some issues being argued over just for the sake of a political agenda rather than the people<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the politicians serve themselves first, then the people a distance second. Or third. Actually, do they serve us?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if the structure in plato's republic would resolve any of our current problems<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Philosopher king? SOmething like that? I wonder. I like the lottery system of Athens.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well basically, those who can't have can rule. But those who don't rule can have.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh, no plutocracy then. Renounce possessions and assets and you get the reins of power.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Basically ya, it tries to remove any external forces that would motivate rulers to make selfish choices I guess. Not sure how it would work out though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I figure there would be quid pro quo, not immediate, but after the fact, once the rule left. No way to stop corruption without watchers. But will watch them? Anyway, great chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Same. Thank you for chatting.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey there, do you listen to ej radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I never heard of it. Maybe someone is trying to censor it, like the Chineese government censored the word censorship.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user apparently you can even catch Jupiter's storms in the am radio<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I rarely listen to radio these days. Such an old tech: radio waves. Reminds me of the Cold War and VOA.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user true. soldiers in WWII used to make radios out of razorblades and pencils<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's wild. Luckily Hanson wasn't around then, otherwise they could've been fooled into listening to them...like Chicago was by a DJ who did not reveal the name of the Band<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user true. I wonder though those soldiers what kind of channel they picked up with those radios<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe they picked up FDR speaking a foreign language. He was the only Potus who could speak one fluently<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user could be. do you know any latin?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's all Greek to me. It' like listening to a ventriloquist on the radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah me too but there is a radio in Finland that gives the news in latin<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm surprised they have an audience. If they're not careful they may need a government bailout...JP Morgan style<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess so. But I do wonder how many people speak latin to be listening to it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe they listen to it like music. There a station that plays the sun's "music". It's solar activity translated into sound.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user so cool. and there is a radio station that plays free radio dramas. do you like those?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, life's enough of a drama for me. We got an opioid crises, troops on the border, white supremacists marching....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah I guess we do not need the radio for more of that. do you know much about politics and presidents?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well, if the government keeps shutting down, there won't be much left to know. What happens if you renounce your citizenship and there's not government to leave behind?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is an interesting question. did you know trump is not the wealthiest us president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He's so full of debt that he may be the poorest. He has not motive for moving to Monaco.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah I guess you never know. Nice chatting with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, did you know that 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the Government? If they were treated like US citizens, they would be forced to sell it to pay for their massive debts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, the government does own 86% of Nevada. Not only that, but did you hear that in 2006, the US passed legislation that would protect government employees from being prosecuted for violating the Geneva Convention?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Why even have the Geneva convention? Wow, some con man in France sold the Eiffel Tower twice!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, but on the better side, in 2008 the Norwegian government donated $1B to help save the Amazon Rainforest. There's still some good left in the world.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's cool of them. That is a lot of money for Norway. Meanwhile, the president of Indonesia released 4 pop albums.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think it was 3 pop albums but I could be wrong. I did hear that Wikileaks published the government's plans to destroy Wikileaks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, 3... Did you know that soldiers made radios out of razor blades and pencils in WW I?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, I heard about that. Did you know that Jupiter has radio storms so strong that they can be picked up and heard by an AM radio?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, Jupiter has some great stations. Canada's government requires 40% of their music to be Canadian.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, right? Since 1989, a Finnish radio station has broadcast "Nuntii Latinii" - a weekly news program conducted entirely in Classical Latin.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So do you follow Prince Harry and Ms. Markle? I don't get why people get so crazy about a royal couple.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, I don't. Prince Harry and Ms. Markle are all over the news and are celebrities in the UK because they are royalty.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess they visited Wales. May dodged a question about inviting Trump to the wedding.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, so says the British tabloids, who also reported that Prince Harry recently sidestepped an inquiry whether the Obamas could expect an invitation in their mailbox, given the prince's friendship with Barack Obama.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didn't realize Markle's mom is black and her father is white. I couldn't care less. They are going to raise their child gender neutral.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess the big question is, will the Obamas be headed to Windsor in May?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user If they do, I don't want to see or hear about it. I just hope they are wasting more taxpayer money on the pleasure trips. I guess Harry and Meghan were presented with "Celtic Love Spoons"?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, their ceremony at St. George's Chapel in Windsor which seats 800 will be filled no doubt.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'd rather visit a local pub and read up on the latest Wikileaks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Ha, yes Wikileaks. Wikileaks published the government's plans to destroy Wikileaks so they might be gone til then.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The Gov't could use a good government. Thanks for the chat!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hey how are you, what do you think about Trump?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have mixed feelings, I think he can do better in some aspects, how about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I believe he is a disgrace and history will look poorly back on him, I can't believe people buy anything he says. He puts words in peoples mouths like Macron on the european military.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good, I agree with you lol, I didn't want to say I hated him and end up you liked him lol. He sucks, in my opinion.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No he is a complete joke, he is terrible and so are the morons that support him, seriously have to be the dumbest people. I hope he does not win in 2020, otherwise Im moving to New Zealand ha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent lol you sound like my brother matt, he would say the same thing and move to new zealand also.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did you see the EU members and the multinational brigades/<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know Zimbabwe's president is nicknamed president banana?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is crazy, do you know who Angela Merkel is, do you like Germany?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I just know we kicked Germanys butt in both ww1 and ww2<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder if Dee fought in WW2?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Dee who, a famous soldier? Trump?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not sure of his name. I'm also not sure what branch he was in though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent never heard of that person, I will have to research him. Do you listen to the radio much?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Radio? Is that the technology that uses those crazy radio waves to carry information, like sound and stuff?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes, crazy stuff. Radios in am mode can potentially pick up radio storms from jupiter!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh wow, I wonder what they would have to say about government, it is that system or group of people that govern an organized community, often called a state. I wonder if they have governments on Jupiter.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think Trumps new Space force can bring democracy to jupiter and even mars<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Not unless wikileaks publishes their plans to go there and colonize it. The US only brings democracy where there is oil, so I'm sure there is a ton there.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent For sure, preach it! Did you know the government owns 86 percent of nevada. Must be doing some experimenting there<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Is that the area called Area 69?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yea, it is the cooler area 51. It was nice chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user I am glad that the Government is back for the next three weeks.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too, its a relief, hope things can settle now, did you hear the news about Alan Diaz?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Therefore, we need to hurry up for our tax refunds! What happened?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well it seems like he died at age 71, it can seem old but it was still surprising.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What caused his death?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think he dies out of natural causes, what makes his famous is the picture he captured of that kid, Elian Gonzales.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user What was Elian Gonzales known for? Was he a prodigy?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No, he was a kid and Alan Diaz took a photo of him in a moment of distress, he earned a Pulitzer Prize because of the photo, a soldier is like pointing a gun at him and the response of the kid is of terror<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is sad. Every picture has a symbolism.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, but behind every picture there is a history as well, Alan Diaz spent a lot of time in Cuba and this boosted his career.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Symbolism and representation of history. He risked his life out there as a photographer.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He did, but maybe retirement was the biggest risk he ever took as he died a few years later, I think maybe retirement killed him<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He wanted to continue his career. Why did he have to retire then?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I'm not sure he wanted to continue it, but from personal experience once someone retires passion gets lost and that could kill you, so changing the subject a bit you know that Trumps guest house is bigger than the White House?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is sad. To be honest, his ideas are different.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I don't agree with much of his ideas either, I think we made a mistake when he got elected but oh well there's not much we can do now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It's ridiculous with the wall. This caused the government to shut down. Imagine those people who have families need money to provide for them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I know, its a terrible situation and for absurd reasons, at least his not making pop albums with his time in office like the president of Indonesia.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Speaking of pop albums, I believe that Kanye West is siding with Trump?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He is? well Kanye isn't the best person to ask lol, his had a lot of controversies during the past years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey there what do you think of our government and constitution<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that like everything, there is good and bad to it. The bad for example, I find it odd that the US government owns 86% of Nevada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user wow that is scary, good to know that norway donated 1 billion dollars to the amazon rainforest though<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is nice to hear of a government doing something positive. The government can be quite complicated. Usually it consists of legislature, executive and judiciary. I can see how things can get very confusing very quickly.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user oh ya for sure, imagine the complicated scheme the guy who sold the eiffel tower used, he sold it not once but two times haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow, that is amazing. How can someone even manage to pull something like that, and twice?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know right, did you hear how the gov had a plan to destroy wikileaks?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, ironically Wikileaks is who published that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha yup, do you know who President Banana is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wasn't the President of Zimbabwe called that? You think that is weird, did you know the President of Indonesia has released 3 pop albums, while in office.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha you'd think so, maybe he should make a pop album, he could call it president banana and vp plantain! haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's funny. I cannot imagine how someone can run a country and release albums. I don't know how they would find the time. Of course not all Presidents have the same amount of power, it depends on the country.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes I agree, can you believe the runner up used to become the VP in the USA? That is so wacky<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Up until 1805, right? I kind of wonder if that wouldn't be a better system in some ways. Maybe there would be less animosity since they would be forced to work together.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya I would like to see Pres Trump and VP Hillary, it would either be hilarious or horrible haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I can see the downside potentially.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user do you know the top 3 richest presidents btw?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent If I remember correctly it was JFK, Washington and Jefferson. I am surprised it was presidents from long ago and not more current.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know and I was surprised Trump was not on the list, very strange!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can you believe that the Guest house is actually bigger than the white house? I would like to see that since the white house is huge.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya I need to go back and see it, I only was there once back in middle school<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, I went quite a while ago as well. Well, it was nice chatting with you. Have a good day.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello do you follow politics at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent A little, what would you like to start with?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Let's start with the presidents. Did you know that the top 3 wealthiest presidents in American history were JFK, Washington, and Jefferson? I think that was before Trump became president....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, I was surprised Trump was not on that list, that list has to be from before 2016<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm thinking it is. Did you know that the president of Indonesia has released 3 pop albums while in office? He would fit right in here in the states. lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, that's funny. I wonder if you get into trouble for criticizing the the presidential music? Maybe get caned in Indonesia<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh my! LOL Up until 1805 the runner up in the US presidential elections automatically became the vice president. Interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Vice President Clinton, can you imagine?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It would definitely make it interesting. lol Did you know that the US presidents guest house is larger than the White House?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Now that's making guests feel at home.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Buttering them up! lol Did you know that the first president of Zimbabwe was called president banana?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe his vice prez was named apple<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Now wouldn't that be funny! Did you you know that 86% of the land in Nevada is owned by the US government? That pretty much leaves Las Vegas and Reno as the only spots to live. LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah, that's lot of desert and secret military bases<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No doubt! In 2008 the Norwegian government donated $1 billion to help save the amazon rain forest. That's a lot of money. I wonder if it helped at all.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Where did the money come from?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Probably the Norwegian tax payers. LOL A man in France impersonated a government official and managed to sell the Eiffel tower not once, but twice. That's nuts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent think he sold it to the same sucker?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That would be funny ! hahaha On another cool topic before I have to get off here... Jupiter has radio storms so strong that they can be picked up and heard by an AM radio. That's pretty cool!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I was just reading about the fox hole radios, just need a razor blade and a pencil, that's pretty interesting as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is. Talk about being creative with what little you have to work with. I got to run. It's been fun chatting with you!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi did you know the president guest house is bigger than the white house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No that's really wild. I wonder why that is? Did you know that the president of Zimbabwe is named President banana haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah thats a very unique name!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I saw that the president of Indonesia has released three pop albums. Do you think president banana has also done this?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats pretty awesome, he must have a lot of time. I wonder how many concerts he does. I have no clue if President Banana has done this lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent LOL yeah I've never heard of him before either. Do you think we should go back to the old world where the runner-up of the presidential election would become the vice president?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user maybe, but not until Trump is out lol I dont think him and Hillary would make a good team<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nope at all. That is a recipe for massive drama. Do you listen to the radio by the way? Sometimes I listen to it on my way to work<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes sometimes. I usually listen to audio book or pandora though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I usually listen to YouTube myself. But I did hear that you can listen to a radio Storm from Jupiter. I think it's on the am Radio. I need to try that<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That sounds really interesting! There is a website you can listen to old classic radio dramas for free!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow Have you listened to it? Probably would like it myself. But say that you get what you pay for haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I probably wouldnt listen to it to be honest. I hear soldiers use to make radios out of a razor blade and a pencil. thats so weird.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is crazy. It was called The Foxhole radio. And I have no idea how it worked haha. I also wouldn't listen to a radio station that was broadcast in classical Latin haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user me either, I dont speak latin, but that is interesting.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What do you think about the government? I guess they try to destroy Wikileaks or something<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats interesting. I hear that the government owns 86% of Nevada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yep that's what I heard too. I also heard a guy tried to sell the Eiffel Tower twice. That is insane haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That guy must be an amzing con artist lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh totally. Speaking of something that is not a con, Norway gave over 1 billion dollars to help save the Amazon rainforest. That is super nice of them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is really nice of them. I really would like to visit norway one day!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would too. The whole country seems like it's full of super nice people haha. Maybe I will see you there<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user How are you today?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am good but very frustrated at Jeff Sessions defending the child separation at the border.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know this has gotten way out of hand. Apparently the concession is if you don't want to be separated from them then don't bring them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a horrible idea. These people come here to try to save their children from abuse and death. The Washington Post told Sessions that separating infants and toddlers from their mothers is wrong.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree this situation is untenable. Apparently the US lost track of 1,475 immigrant children in 2018.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is so traumatic for the children. There are 11,000 unaccompanied children and it is taking 45 days to place them<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes it is a sad state of affairs, something amicable needs to be done.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The ACLU is fighting it - they say its the worst thing they have seen in 25 plus years.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well i guess we will have to wait and see. Did you know that the guest house is bigger than the actual white house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes but probably smaller than Margo Largo! Even though Trump is not one of the 3 wealthiest presidents.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Right! it was Jefferson, JFK & Washington. Can you imagine Hillary and Trump together in the white house?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That would be pretty funny. Or Trump and the first president of Zimbabwe - President Banana<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user TOO FUNNY!! I don't think i could let anyone call me banana. How about the president of Indonesia having 3 pop albums?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is pretty crazy! Imagine listening to Trump sing on the radio? Radios were one of the first methods of long range messaging.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oh no! Apparently Jupiter storms are so strong that they can be picked up by Am radio.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow that is crazy! I did not know you could make simple radios using a razorblade and a pencil - soldiers in WWII did such things!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Those guys are super heroes for real. Did you know that Canada has a law that 40% of its music be Canadian. .<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's pretty funny. I prefer Canadian music over the news in Latin like they play in Finland.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I hear you. Did you know that our government owns 86% of Nevada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. That is pretty crazy. I had never heard that. Some governments definitely are in favor of preservation - Norway gave 1 billion to help save the amazon rainforests,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That should have been enough to save it then. nice talking with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Did you pay much attention to all the news about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Not much, I cut off my tv last year but I see them on website headlines from time to time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess before the wedding they went on a tour to various places, including Wales<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think that created some drama haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The crowds would have been crazy considering that she's a famous actress<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I dont know what shows she is on, I heard some crime dramas and 90210. She is good looking!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Considering that she's now pregnant, they've been all over the British tabloids for a while<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh thats nice. Prince Harry seems like he would be a good father. I heard he had kids give Meghan a group hug.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user People were also making a big deal about whether Obama would be invited to the wedding.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Was he? Speaking of presidents, did you know the first president of zimbawe was called banana?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's actually his last name, which is even funnier if you ask me<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent The president of indonesia has 3 pop albums out.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard he actually released them while he was in office too. Who would have thought he would have the time?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know back in the day, the runner up became vice president!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I'm kind of glad that changed though with how different the political parties are<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh they would be at each others throats if that happened modern day.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user And they would fight over the White House guest house since it's bigger than the actual White House<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well if I were one of the wealthiest like jfk, washinton or jefferson, I would build my own white house haha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I don't think the White House was built yet while Washington was President. The government has definitely changed over the years, though they still own 86% of Nevada<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Good point....did you know that Washington would be a half a billionaire in todays money though, I am sure he had a nice pad.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Mount Vernon is a place you can still tour today. It's a whole plantation! Nice talking with you<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey did you know the university of iowa painted the rival team's locker room pink? haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess it's meant to psych out the opposition. How many home games have they won though? Talent wins.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha thats what I want to know, personally I think that would make me play better because I'd be mad haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Times have really change for sports. In the 60s top bowlers made twice as much as top football stars. Does anyone watch bowling now? Maybe the U of Iowa would paint the other team's lanes pink or something.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya that's a good point, maybe the pros will paint their bowling ball pink as well? haha, I guess the highest football score ever was 222-0 isn't that crazy<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Georgia Tech crushed Cumberland. Did the GT coach put in the third string? Did he have money riding on the game or something? Was there a pink lockerroom involved?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha those are all great questions, ya I think after like 100-0 I would definitely just give up, there's no coming back, maybe they should paint their football pink<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent ESPN won an Emmy for creating the superimposed yellow line showing the first down line for American football games. Was it weak field of Emmy contestants that year or something? The U of Iowa would want a pink line for the visiting team.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha I would like to see that on TV, people that create things are always interesting like the guy who created the football huddle, he was deaf and did it to prevent the opposing team from seeing his hand signs<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Improvise. Adapt. Overcome. There is only one left handed quarterback in the NFL. I wonder why that is. Is it unusual to play QB from that side?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user thats a good question, what I want to know is does that give him an advantage, disadvantage, or probably it doesnt matter, do you listen to music?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Sure. Do you follow dance at all? Tupac the rapper danced ballet in high school. He played the mouse king in The Nutcracker. Not really in line with his image as a gangsta.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha no that sounds like it would have been a wild performance to see, I wonder what kind of music babies like best, apparently they will dance and smile when they hear a beat<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Music is fundamental to our psyche. I wish dance were the same.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya, I'm bad at dancing, definitely not as good as Bruce Lee who apparently won a dance competition back in 1958<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He could kick it on the dance floor and in the dojo. Professional ballet dancers can go through 4 pairs of shoes a week. I wonder how many Bruce went through in a week.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that's a good question, I used to date a ballerina and ya he does were really messed up, all that dancing will affect your shoes and also your feet<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It's tough on your body. I've never been attracted to doing ballet. But I understand that it's challenging.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya, also tough on your body is the Michael Jackson leaning device that he used, it used wires and apparently Jackson has a patent on it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It was a clever illusion. Quite convincing. Well, I enjoyed chatting with you! Have a good night!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thank you, you too! keep looking for that Tupac ballet tape I want to see it!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello, do you have a favorite football quarterback?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes my favorite football qb is Aaron Rodgers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ah, mine is probably Tom Brady, although a lot of Americans also like him<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent How much longer before Tom Brady retires?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am not sure, do you know? I also wanted to point out that the only left handed quarterback in the NFL is Kellan Moore<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really is Kellan Moore the only left handed quarterback? What tean does he play for?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He has played a total of six seasons for the cowboys and the Detroit lions.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh i did not know that. Did he ever start a game?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am not sure. The circular huddle used in the NFL was invented so the opposing team could not see the hand signals.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow thats amazing. Did you know the highest score in a football game ever was 222-0?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I feel very bad for the team that lost by 222 points. It was Georgia tech that defeated Cumberland right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes it was. You have such good football knowledge. Which football quarterback has the most consecutive starts?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I am actually not sure on that one. Was it Tom Brady? I am not sure, who was it?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Well it was Brett Favre. Did you know Bruce Lee was a great dancer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never imagined Bruce Lee to be a dancer until I learned that he won the kong cha cha championship back in 1958!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know when Bruce Lee was a baby he would spontaneously dance when he heard music, and he smiled more when he hit the beat?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No I did not. Professional ballet dancers can go through up to four pairs of ballet shoes a week!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is true. Did you know Tupac danced ballet in high school?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was a ballet dancer that portrayed the mouse king in the nutcracker right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is right. I never would have thought that tough ex gang member rapper Tupac danced ballet.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Michael Jackson has a patent on a device that can be used to achieve a lot of lean.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Was that a lean he did in some of his dance moves?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yep, I was always wondering how he achieved those.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent What is the most popular sport in the world?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I belive that it is soccer (or football)<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is correct. Have you ever played soccer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I sometimes do. what about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent No but i have played football.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ah, so have I. Anyways, I have to go now. Thank you for the wonderful chat!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi do you like to dance? Even babies spontaneously dance when music is played for them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes! I am not a big dancer. I think that as we age, we lose a lot of our childlike joy in things.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Perhaps, I do still like a lot of childhood things. I am still a big fan of bruce lee who was also a great dancer.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am a big fan of Bruce Lee as well. He won a dance championship in the 50's. His movements were so graceful.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes the 1958 cha-cha championship. Good times.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Have you ever taken a dance class? Ballet is beautiful. Dancers can go though 4 pairs of their pointe shoes in a week!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's a lot of shoes! I never had the opportunity to take classes probably because I played a lot of football as a quarterback.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Football is my favorite sport. Did you enjoy playing QB? How many years did you play?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I played for 4 years in high school. It was fun but high stress the QB involved in pretty much every offensive play and lets face it no one cares about defense.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Unless you are ON the defense! I think it is amazing that Tom Brady had such a slow start to his career.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah they didn't even start him once on his high school team.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. And not at first in college either. Never give up on your dreams. Very inspiring. Do you like the Redskins?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I do, I have been to RFK Stadium before. It was a long time ago.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have been to Fed EX field, not RFK. Alex Smith is one of my favorite QB's. He started college as a junior. Sad about his injury this year.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yeah that's too bad. I think part of the reason I gave up on football was I never had a fair shot because I'm left handed. Even now there is only 1 left handed qb in all of the nfl.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes, that is statistically odd. When did the Redskins move to the new field?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user hmm It was 1997 when they moved into FedEx Field.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent High school players sometimes get to play on pro fields, like RFK Stadium. Did you ever get to do that as QB?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No unfortunately not. I remember when the old RFK hosted a triple header of HS games. It would have been so cool to play on that field.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Something magical about that! I have been down on the Broncos field, and in Arizona. Football fields have a lot of tradition associated with them.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Anyways I should go. It was nice talking to you.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You too! Take care....<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user thanks<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Radford hit a crazy final shot to get into the NCAA tournament<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent agree, do you watch NCAA men's basketball tournament?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love the NCAA tournament, I fill out a bracket every year for it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I also like Tappan Zee, he is a smart player<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I think Tappan Zee is actually a high school team, they recently lost on a crazy play.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes and also McGarvey also played safety during football season, and he played excellent pass defense in making the interception, who payed very good<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user McGarvey's football skills really helped him on that play! He's been getting a lot of attention after that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I totally agree with you. Who is your favorite quarterback?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like Matt Ryan, do you like football?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I like, one interesting fact, did you know that Bruce lee was also a great dancer and he won the hong kong cha-cha championship in 1958?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow I didn't know Bruce Lee was a dancer! I only knew him as a great martial artist.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes a really great actor. Also Michael jackson has a patent. on a device used to achieve the extreme lean in some of his dance moves... so interesting<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Michael Jackson is amazing. Tupac was actually a great dancer too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really? I couldn't even imagine. I love him so much, he is the greatest. So what country football you prefer the most?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I only watch American football, what about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Me too but some years ago I was watching Italian football as well and Spanish. Did you know that In the 1960's top bowlers made twice as much as top football stars?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That's crazy, football players make much more now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes exactly, and also Espn won an emmy for the creation of the superimposed yellow line representing the first down line for american football games.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I love that line, makes it much more enjoyable to watch<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes agree with you. Can you believe that The highest score ever in a football game occurred in 1916 when georgia tech defeated cumberland 222-0? this is so funny, how is that even possible? lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I live in Atlanta, that team is very close to me, I actually knew that.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi, I am a huge football fan. We love the Packers. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Hello, I watch some football, im not a huge fan. I like the niners. Did you know that in the 60's top bowlers made almost twice as much as football players?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Noway! I never heard that but totally believe it! I am a huge college football fan too, we love OU.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I dont know what that is.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Oklahoma University is the college team we follow. We watched Baker Mayfield play all the way through school. It was a lot of fun watching him get better every season. I am more of a bowler in terms of ability.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh nice! have you ever visited the university of iowa's opposing team locker room?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, we have never traveled that far before?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Apparently it is painted pink lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ha, that is hilarious. It must be to get into their heads before the games start! I love it. Ya know the highest game ever scored was 222-0. Crazy,huh<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sounds embarrassing lol<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah, that would be a nightmare. I don't think they would allow that today for the sportsmanship of the game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know theres only one left handed quarterback?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I never knew that, wow. I had noticed that dance is similar to football in terms of being choreographed. Dancers like Bruce Lee used it in their film and enter competitions too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah I cant believe he won a cha cha competition.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I know it what a weird fun fact about him.lol I learned recently that Michael Jackson had a patent on shoes for his dancing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Oh thats cool, Im sure Michael Jackson has a lot of patents on his moves and clothing lol Did you see that series that came out Leaving Neverland?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No, I really want to see that though, just out of curiosity. Another singer that was also a dancer was Tupac. He was in the ballet Nutcracker n high school.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It was devastating, I cant get it out of my mind. yeah I did hear that, that is pretty awesome!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Ha, yeah people and their path to fame is crazy. The OU QB Baker Mayfield was going to become a professional gamer and not pursue football at one point. That is scary! Thanks for the fun chat I really enjoyed it.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Great chatting!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You too, have a good one!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user When I think of football, I think of American gridiron football. What do you think of?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I think its a great sport, I like it and find it really engaging, do you have like a favorite team?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I guess I like the Patriots. I find it helps to root for a winning team. Patriots RB Benjarvus Green-Ellis has never fumbled a football in the NFL.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like the Patriots as well and he was a great player I became a fan of the team because of him,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have you ever watched Australian rules football, or rugby? While these are called football, they are faster and more painful to play.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I have watched Rugby and think its a nice sport as well, I also like dancing,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Rugby is a sport for the strong. Dancing is very helpful to all kinds of athletes. Bruce Lee won the Honk Kong Cha-Cha championship in 1958.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree, rugby requires strengh and dance requires agility, so Bruce Lee not only was a martial arts champion but also a skilled dancer? he sure was full with suprices<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Its is kind of neat how dance means one thing depending on culture, and football means one thing depending on culture. And yet, Bruce Lee danced the Cha-Cha.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is neat, do you like ballet?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I knew some one who was in a high school version of the Nutcracker. They were no Tupac, but they liked it. I do not.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see, its amazing how much shoes a pro dancer has to buy, 4 pairs a week,<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, it looks painful as well. I wonder if a pro ballet dancer makes more than a top bowler? Some sports stars make lots of money. in the 1960's bowlers made more than football stars.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess football wasn't so popular back then, pro players make a lot of money now I bet Quarterbacks are one of the highest paid players<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The leader of the offensive team and the player that touches the ball almost every offensive play? Yep, they deserve top money.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Do you know who Tom Brady is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He is the patriots QB. In high school he was a backup player and never played a game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Thats crazy, the coach didnt know he had a hall of famer in the bench, they had a terrible season I bet that made Brady work harder to make it to the starting team<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The competition between players must be fierce, or maybe Brady never wanted to start in high school. Save himself for the big time. Baker Mayfield is competitive in games like halo 3 and thinks of becoming a full time gambler.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I heard he considered quitting football once to pursue a gaming career, I think he made the right decision in financial terms<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is a bit of a gamble to enter any career. Let alone one where you throw forward passes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see your point, players can get injured easily in the field so its a tough call, some injuries end careers.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi do you watch the NFL?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I sure do . DO you have a favorite position in the game?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I like the QB, and you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent me too. Did you know Brady was a backup QB that never got started n high school?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah that was big mistake on their behalf as the guy is awesome<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent you bet it was. DO you know who ALex Smith is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he is a QB who is also super smart and finished college in two years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yeah he planned ahead by taking lots of ap tests, smart kid<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes. Do you know who invented the circular huddle?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes that was Paul Hubbard who was deaf and did not want the other team to understand what he was saying<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah smart guy. Baker Mayfield wanted to become a professional gamer and quit football<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes he still claims to be really good at Halo 3<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah and the thinks that he can beat anyone at U of Oklahoma at it<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow good for him I guess. DO you know who kellan moore is?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes he is the only left handed QB in the NFL right now<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if he has any advantages for that fact over the others<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I wonder too. Do you like Baseball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like it too . DO you know why the managers wear uniforms?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is because they can play of they team needs them to<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent yes. Do you know what kickball is called in Canada?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes it is called soccer-baseball<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hello. Do you like football? Are ready for the super bowl? I hope we have a good game like the football game that occurred in 1916 when the score was 222-0. Georgia tech vs. Cumberland.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I am ready and really exited, my team is playing so I am really looking forward to it, and that would be really unusual<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well I am sure there will be a lot of scoring. Not like the Junipero Serra high school JV football team that had a bad season. They failed to win a game or even score a touchdown! The whole time they had Tom Brady on his team but never properly used him.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That seems like a big waster imagine having a hall of famer and one of the best QB in history and not using them, I guess thats why they lost.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes bad coaching. Well another interesting fact about football is that Alex smith was very smart that he got his bachelor's degree in only two years and was working on a master's degree before being number one pick for the 2005 NFL draft.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow most players just decide to go pro and dont worry about studies, that is really admirable.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user So true! Well Kellan Moore is the only left handed quarterback in the NFL.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Really the only one? I wonder why that is, maybe left handed players aren't as skilled in football.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Don't they say left handed people are more artsy? Right handed Ben Jarvus Green Ellis has never fumbled the football in his NFL career.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Could be, but it doesnt look like for the QB position and that is a great record, not fumbling? he must be the only player.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well just like football, baseball has a lot of interesting facts. Did you know that kickball is also called Soccer-baseball Canada.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I didnt know that, that is an interesting fact just like why the managers also wear uniforms<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes! Or the fact that baseball is popular in Japan that many fans are surprised to discover its status as America's National pastime.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder if they also collect cards in Japan? its crazy how much those cards are worth, at least the rare ones.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Rare baseball cards are worth a lot. A man once found three million dollars worth 1900s baseball cards in his grandfather's attic. That's incredible!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He sure was a lucky man, imagine finding that much money in your attic<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user He was very lucky. I also think the married couple who scheduled all 2430 major league baseball games were also lucky to be given such a job. They did this until 2005.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That sure sounds like a lot of work for only two people, 2430 are a whole bunch of games<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That is a large amount just like when the top bowler's in the 1960s made twice as much as top football stars.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wonder why they made more, maybe football wasnt popular at the time and bowling was!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Well it was the 1960's so it is understandable that more people liked to watch bowling. Anyways it was nice chatting with you.<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hi how are you doing today? do you like sports?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I like sports, I like all forms of football, even Canadian football.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I dont know canadian football. is it good? is it polite? LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is like the NFL, but with small differences. Do you like the NFL ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i do, but i dont get to watch very much. maybe the super bowl.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Can you believe that there is only one left handed quarterback in the NFL ? Do you think there is a bias ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no, i think that maybe there is something about the sport that attracts righties to that position. i think some great lefties have played QB in the past though.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yeah, but do you think plays are drawn for right handed QB and left handed QB might have some difficulties with them ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yes, that is a possibility. i guess that the blockers might have to switch around too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Like left handed pitcher have a advantage because people are not used to them. Do you like baseball ?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i do like baseball. i try to watch the playoffs and the series.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent It is special, I think it is the only sport that the manager can play for their team if they need it, that is why they wear a uniform.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user That must be a holdover from the old days. i bet a player was chosen as manager. then there was a leader on the field.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Baseball is an old sport, they had baseball cards in the 1900s, they are worth millions now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user i would love to find a trove of those cards! i would sell some and keep the rest. what would you do?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would sell them all and invest in something. But if they were my grandfather's I would to the same as you.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes, the cards can appreciate, but i would like to invest as well.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent But if it was a family heirloom, I would have some sleepless nights. I would want to keep some, but at the same they are worth a lot. I could keep the worthless ones...<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user true, it is hard to part with things that have been in the family. Anyway, great chat!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You too, thanks for the conversation. I hope the playoffs will be good.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Have a great day! Yes, me too.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Bye<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Did you hear about the Oklahoma quarterback and the Heisman Trophy he won?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. It was Kyler Murray from Oklahoma?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yeah the same one, he is really skilled and now is on the top of college football, I hope he does well in the NFL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent He also was drafted by the Oakland A's for baseball in 2018.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I see, it must be hard to win the Heisman trophy he had 40 touchdowns in the season that is amazing<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I would love to have that kind of talent! Gives him a lot of options.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It does, I bet every team wants him in their roster, quarterbacks are the most important player in the team<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree. His uncle Calvin Murray also played baseball for the San Francisco Giants.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Did he? I guess football runs in his family do you like Tom Brady?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes. I didn't like him early in his career but a few years ago he changed my mind. Speaking of QB's Browns QB Baker Mayfield once considered quitting football to pursue competitive gaming full time.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I heard he has some crazy Halo skills, he is pretty good, he beat everyone at his university<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's crazy. There's only 1 left handed QB in the NFL ... Kellan Moore. I didn't know that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user The only one? I bet his good, do you also like baseball?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Love baseball. That's my favorite sport. Did you know that baseball managers wear uniforms because they technically are able to play for their teams if they are needed?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I didnt know that, it would be interesting to watch a manager play and win the game, they must remain fit just in case<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent You're right. Baseball is also really popular in Japan.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It is, there was a man that found 3 million dollars worth of baseball cards, he found them in his attic, crazy right?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I wish I could have that kind of luck! Baseball is also called America's national pastime, but I think that has long since been passed by football, basketball, and video gaming.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user I agree, how hard can it be to organize baseball games, a couple scheduled all of the 2430 MLB games for 24 years<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Wow. I don't think I would want to do that job. If I did I would schedule the first month of the season to be played in either in either domes/stadiums with a retractable roof or have the teams play in the warmer southern states. Sometimes April games isn't ideal to play baseball in the crummy weather.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user It must be a hard job for just two people, anyway sports are great Im glad they exist!<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user Hi how are you today?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I guess the family has been a sporting family, and not just in Football<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Do you like football? Can you believe The university of iowa's locker room for visiting football teams is completely painted pink. LOL<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I bet they do that for mental intimidation, wow, I never knew that. I am not a big sports person. I guess many people love football. How about you?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yes I like it but its not my favorite. Have you ever been to a football game?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent LOL, I have never been to one. Have only gone to a baseball game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user You should try to go to one someday. Canaada only has 1 professional team<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I will try some time. Can you believe that in the 1960's bowlers were paid 2x as much as football players. A lot has changed since then. They make a lot of money now.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Wow yes thats amazing. Dis you also knowBaseball managers wear uniforms because they are technically able to play for their teams if the need arises. I never knew that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I never knew that either. I can not recall seeing a manager ever play before but it may have happened. There is a lot I do not know about sports and sports trivia. Do you have any baseball card? That man found 3million dollars of old cards, wow!!!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user LOL I am not sure if its happened or not. I wish i could run into something worth a lot of money. I hope for that.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Yes I do too. I find old things at times but they are never worth any thing at all. Wish my grandfather had saved his baseball cards. So is American and Canadian football the same?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user No not really. I am learning though. Do you like soccer?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Nothing about Soccer in the articles. Do not know anything about it. Did you know that Baseball was popular in Japan?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Thats interesting. Sorry my mistake. What else do u know?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I see that many people think the quarterbacks are the the leader of the offensive team. I guess they do a lot in a game.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Yea each member definately The quarterback also touches the ball on almost every offensive play, and is the offensive player that almost always throws forward passes. So<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Did you know who Kyler Murray was before reading the article? I never heard of him. I am so out of touch with some things.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Nope lol and I still am not sure, I did not read that part either. It has been good talking to you.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I enjoyed taking to you and learning some sport trivia and facts.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user Merry christmas<end_of_turn>
<bos><start_of_turn>user hey there can you guess the 3 richest presidents in history?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I can they are jfk, washington, and jefferson. Did you know that until 1805 in the U.S. the runner up in a presidential election became the vice president.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha didn't know that, imagine VP Hillary right now! there would be even more drama! kind of happy thats not that case still<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That's probably why that's not how things work anymore. I think that Hilary would have kept Trump maybe a little more in line. Speaking of Trump though did you hear that he made up how many people watched his State of the Union address.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ah yeah I did hear that, I'm also shocked that he lives in teh White House and not the Guest house, the Guest house is apparently bigger!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is a strange, but true fact. Apparently he has been making up numbers for all sorts of things. Back in 2010 he made up numbers for how well The Apprentice was doing.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ah I see, do you watch a lot of tv? I used to watch Pokemon as a kid<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I watch a fair share and pokemon is a show that my children love. Did you know that there is over 750 episodes of pokemon.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user thats crazy! Even if I watched 50 a year for 16 years Id probably never catch em all! haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Very clever. Another animated show that I used to watch as a kid was the Simpsons. I can't believe there has been one episode where Bart wasn't in it and wasn't even mentioned.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no that is shocking, did you watch that South Park Episode where they roasted Family Guy?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is crazy, but what is crazier is that the simpsons crew sent flowers to the producers.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user haha ya, lets just say South park did a great job, their analysis was spot on haha<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That was definitely spot on unlike that 70's show remake days like these that was cancelled after only 10 episodes.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user yup, I guess humor is different across theh pond, do you like Robin Williams at all?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Who doesn't he was such an amazing actor. Another amazing actor though is Alec Baldwin and he narrated some Thomas the Tank episodes which is really cool.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user that is cool, I don't know about Ringo Starr, I'm not sure why they had him narrate I don't even know what he sounds like<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent I agree I'm not sure how he would sound, but he did act in a movie called Caveman so I'm guessing he made a decent Thomas the Train.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ah I see I'll have to look at that, do you think any of them got to go to the secret celebrity room at PIxar studios?<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent Maybe not them, but probably Robin Williams. It's crazy that Robin Williams was the first actor to start the trend of celebrities performing voices in animated movies.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user ya he kicked off a trend thats for sure, did you know Judge Judy makes 120k an episode, now there is a job I want!<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>agent That is crazy, but it's probably not easy to get into doing that. It's probably easier to just become a regular judge. I can't believe that she's one of the highest paid celebrities.<end_of_turn> <start_of_turn>user no me neither, only second to Lebron James apparently<end_of_turn>
