Putin Ousted?

Image
The barrage of commentary on Russia...that hit the web net...is that Vladimir Putin was in danger of being OUSTED as the leader of Russia ...his lack of closing the attack on Ukraine , the reason...in fact, the constant hits on the capitol...Moscow...not sure how the regime changes happens there...but, it may happen sooner than one thinks... hey, if he has to go, release what he has on trump ...thus far, it is all speculation...as this am, the chatter about it, has lessened... So much for 'The Ceasefire'...with trump and Iran ...as there are strikes both ways...my fear?...Iran is feeling like Ukraine...we can handle the big dog...of course, the main item is the OIL ...and the passage through the Strait... The trump regime is now all out in total defense mode of the upcoming November mid-term election ...even to the point that his ultra pawn, SOH Mike Johnson released his statement "I run the protection program" of all the trump empire...empire?...ha ha...his very ...

The Calm

Image
Here it is, the gateway to the weekend...and alas, there is nothing...well, headlines, that dominate the web net ...this, that, and everything...that's a good thing...so, let's do the Horse bit (ha ha)...it's a time to celebrate the Beach Boys ! ...they are here, ah, over at the Shell...playing WITH the San Diego Symphony ...say what?...man, that spelling of symphony looks weird...wonder what bloke came up with that?...I digress...the lone Beach Boy left in this group, is Mike Love ...we are in the outer banks of the stadium...in the grass...with a blanket and beach chairs...kind of fitting, right?...at least I know they will play all their hits, not like the Dylan dude ... We took Cosmo in to get his annual physical. ..it will be spendy, kids...none of this type of maintenance insurance for a rig...might even get new tires...we shall see...in the meantime, we got a memo that there was some disturbance at the plaza of our building...uh, oh...and were assured that we could ...

Song Sung Blue

Image
Let's take a short trump break, well, at least to start ...we watched the flick ' Song Sung Blue ' on Netflix...man, I can't recall the last time we went into a movie theater...years for sure...many years...back to the screen...we were reluctant to watch it, thinking it may be cheesy...my oh my, surprised!... Lightning and Thunder. ..it was fun, mostly...then drama... Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson were the two stars ...he really was worthy of awards, which he did not get...she was nominated and then, got zero...the surprise was the role of Michael Imperioli ...and his abilitites to play the guitar and sing...had no idear...he was a strength of the Sopranos ...and another Montecito guy...based on the two singing the songs of Neil Diamond ...who has a monstrous amounts of hits, that he sang and others did too...my personal one, was in my post-collegiate days...groovin to ' Cracklin Rosie '...and my days at the Museum...holding court on their only pool table, drin...

Feels Like A Monday

Image
You ever get the feeling that a day doesn't match up to what you think it is?...like today, FEELS LIKE A MONDAY ...but it's not...which means yesterday was Sunday...hey, kids...do you go to a church?...the tally is at 20-22% say they do...and yet, in reality, accordiing to AI , it's more like 5 to 6% of the population in the USA...do... Not sure where I am going with this, so let's just let it flounder... The NY Democratic vote was yesterday, on Tuesday, that seemed like Sunday...and the consensus tells us that the socialists won out...egads, the worst name that the conservatives can hear...socialists...which brings me to this...we should vote on the weekend, nationwide.... trump says he won, and Iran said they did...but, the trump WAR appears to be at a lull... ceasefire ?...tell that to Netanyahu...is the Strait open?...judging by the disastrous stock market , I'd say it is still closed...c'mon, leadership...do your job... The bloody reflecting pool ...back...

Albanian Protests

Hidden from most of the headlines....is this country in the...well, it's across the Adriatic Sea from Italy...considered in Europe...bordered by Montenegro, Kosovo, Macedonia, and Turkey... ALBANIA ...and in this country's coastline...is a piece of property that some USA people are mighty interested in...as making a RESORT out of it...however, the people are up in arms over this...PROTESTING!...ah ha, you see the investors are none other than Ivanka Trump and Jared Kirshner !!!...yes, the bloke who is part of the 3 'man' delegate that is dealing with Iran in the trump WAR...part of this is Sazar Island ...which was at one time a Communist Military Base ...say what?...I dunno, kids...guess that is how one gets rich...er, richer, while your papa is running the country...isn't that the plan 'they' had for the shores of Palestine?...if it smells to you, it does to me, too... Hey, how about this algae in the reflecting pool ...is this a big deal or what?...tru...

Bizarro

Let's hold on to whatever is going on in Switzerland ...the meeting, er pow wow, with Iran and the 3 delegates from the US ... the trio of JD, Wit, and Jared ...these blokes were handcuffed as the Iranians walked out...due to the bizarre rant of trump ...while his guys were to meet...he threatened the Iranians...my gosh, what a foo...what else would one call him?...anyhoo, according to this morning's reports...the two sides are back and are dealing...who knows?...stay out of it, poopah... Another BIZARRO!...last nites fiasco at the Shell ... The Bob Dylan Concert ...there were 2 opening acts... John Doe , I kid you not, was the 1st one...elder cat singing, I don't exactly know the genre...3 piece band...and then, came out Lucinda Williams ...helped out, I shall say...rumor was that she recently had a stroke...the crowd info...and sang her opening song without her microphone on...no lie...her band sounded fine...she wasn't bad, but definitely past her prime...after a 45...

Happy Padres Day

Image
Well, that sure is confusing...I meant to say 'HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!' ... to ours in heaven, and to our grandson's daddy right here on earth ...padre means father in Spanish, so it does make sense...sort of...I have been milking it as much as I can, with Boss...as tonight we celebrate with a jaunt over to the Shell for a concert with Lucinda Williams and Bob Dylan ...yup. that one... 'Everybody must get stoned' ...a very popular lyric from the great ' Rainy Day Women, #12 and #35 '...some toke up, some drink their alcohol, and some, well, do whatever...it's a song, kids...a song...Dylan has a rep as a non-talker at his concerts...just sangs...many think his voice is turrible...he really is a stylist...we have our limited expectations...the Horse likes many of his tunes... The Strait is closed ...what?...poopah sent VPJD (and Jared ?) to Switzerland to pow wow with the Iranians on a deal...why didn't trump go?...he is the art of the deal dude...wa...
