Labor Day


I don't suppose you really know the reasons behind ... Labor Day...
It started back in 1882 (Snook's birthday) in the little town of New York...where there was this little dispute with labor owners and the beginning of union types...the state of Orygun was the 1st to actually put in to law in 1887, and then Prez Cleveland convinced Congress to make it a national law in 1894...totally 'cuz it would benefit himself in the elections...(duh)...well, it's kept it's title and is generally accepted as the end of summer and the beginning of the school year...and most everybody has the day off...except my mate of the year, Marsha...who is searching for your new condo in San Diego all day today...me?, I'm celebrating by going to the races at Del Mar (it's true love)...

I can't make this up...the Bolt's defensive star (and hope), Shawne Merriman, in preparation for the upcoming season gets arrested for slapping (allegedly) his girl friend, Tila Tequilla (yup)...

The Pads won 2 of 3 at LA behind Kooz and AGonzo hitting and Tim Stauffer and the pen pitching...
Do you think the Dux will give Blount a reprieve if he controls himself for a couple of weeks? By the way, the Dux have already been invited to the "Punch Bowl"...thanks to Jo Ritchey (Bunny) for that...

Studette Suzanne Petersen smoked the field in Canada for a 5 stroke victory in the LPGA...

Had my online draft for my fantasy (my whole life) football team...Reggie was my key...Bush and Wayne....my QB is none other than Jessica free, Tony Romo...

Oops, I got to get to work...

poor effort at humor re: my birthday which is Wednesday. Great pic of Marsha and could she get me a condo with view of ocean for 200k?
Jo wants to be one of your readers but doesn't kow how. Call her and walk her through it.
How about the idiots that don't want their kids watching the Pres.
Maybe we need a civil war

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
