American Idol

Did you watch your American Idol?  The gals performed last night and I was NOT blown away...in fact, I doubt there is the winner in that group...a few of them have potential...the 1st gal out had a booming voice, the curly head looker surprised me with a nice "Oh Darlin", and the folk rocker did a great Alanis Morrisette...as one says, it's too early to tell...

There is this one high school in Kansas that is under-performing, according to it's superintendent...in a lower income area...drop out rate high and so on...so she wanted to reduce the staff's income...they protested...and voila!..the supt. fired them all!!!  OMG!  88 of them...I'm smelling a lawsuit...get her outta there...

A shocking sniper shooting in Colorado, just 3 miles from the infamous one at Columbine High, that took place less than 10 years ago...a teacher tackled the shooter and stopped the carnage that follows...a true hero...

The Toyota empire is crumbling right before our eyes...the most popular car maker in the world, apparently, grew too fast...man, I have a Solara and a Lexus...they got me...

One of the 2 shows I watch in the afternoon is the PTI show on ESPN...one of the 2 combatants on it is Tony Kornheiser...recently a member of the announcing crew on Monday Night Football...anyhoo, he is full of himself...and he finally stepped into it when he called out Hannah Storm about what she was wearing...it was going to happen sometime, with something he was going to say...I think it was imminent...he's suspended and I figure he's on his way out...yup, good riddance...

Back to Idol...the guys are tonight...there are not  12 worthy ones, but the top 3 are mighty good...mark my words...

A little pitchy...

Totally agree on the mediocre quality of idol last nite. Ellen is a fish out of water and has nothing to add to this show. This is the last season for idol.

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.....

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...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
