Easter as I know it

-
Dependent on your faith (if any)...oops, there I go, inflaming you non-believers...Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus, 3 days after his crucifixion...which has carried it's symbol all this time to...nowadays...truly amazing, as the numbers have fallen of those who attend a church like area...with all the problems of certain religions and the like...it is a wonder that it still exists...but, in reality, commercialism has taken over...the eggs, the brunch, the clothes, the money making schemes...hey, I'm being real here...think of most of the holidays, they are perpetuated by the almighty dollar and the advertising of the same...for whatever you believe (or not), family is the most important part of this life...so whatever it takes, make it be this Easter Day, and believe in your family ...
Speaking of believing, who could have done so with the underdogs, the over-achievers, the Cinderellas, the Hoosier like,...Butler squad getting to the finals of the Big Dance!  And my oh my, dare I say this, the Devils (Blue) are to be their opponents...thank goodness the finals aren't played on this day...no way a devil can win on Easter Day...but tomorrow?  Probably...
It's opening day for MLB...Boston vs. NY...must be non-believers to play on Easter...the naysayers are still barking about the Padres and their lack of $ to produce a winner...take heed you doubters, it will happen...
The Blazers survived a mighty effort by the Kings, and continued their road to the playoffs...albeit a 7th or 8th place...watching Andre Miller run up and down the floor reminds me of well...me...he is ancient...
The weather was great my friend, and I again survived the links...actually had a stud partner and won $ at the course...praise be to the driver as the putter sucks...
Sorry about that...

Very well written Peter, and sometimes its scary how much we think alike. Well except for the baseball shit. Bought a new truck yesterday for some reason and now feel very manly. Easter with the Grand kids and life is good! You and Marsha will always be the best!

The trump criminal trial is now set to go on Monday ...try as he may, he couldn't get it delayed...how many tries?...4?...it's a go, Bozo.. .and now, it is Perry Mason time ...does he have Perry?...I see he is without the lady attorney he had in his last court case ... a thought for us all...seems like whenever we are watching the 'famous people' in court, the prosecution has a tougher job ahead of them ...we shall see...and the item of 'odor' has emerged again...what the heck?... Bizarre outside the courthouse...a guy set himself on fire...he died ...the last time I can recall something like this... was in South Vietnam, with the Buddhist Monks doing the same, in the Vietnam War...egads ....we just don't value life enough... Congress...it's another odd session...with House Speaker Johnson (Mr Peepers) going against MAGA, and trying to get $ for Ukraine and Israel ...yes, MTG is not only fighting that, but attempting to get him fired from his job...why o...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......
