Your Stocks

So do you understand your stock market?  Me, not so much...as we witnessed the downturn last week, including the 1000 point mid-day drop...fear gripped us again...as the naysayers said, "see I told you"...and we go through the process of putting our money in "safe" spots...then give yourself the weekend, and!  poof the market corrects itself over 400 points...the experts say the downer happened due to the European market....and then without them knowing, the Euro has a bailout, and up back comes their market, thus ours...

Strange day for the Padres...1st the scheduled starter gets a family emergency (his younger collegiate brother died}, and departs...the replacement guy is coming off a recent blown game...he actually does well, including driving in the go ahead runs...then watches in frustration as the pen struggles and gives up some runs...many of the normal starters are rested as we play our "B" team...and then give the game away on a routine grounder to the ss...beisball, oy vay...

The Players...more strange stuff....1st of all, the come from nowhere win by tiny Tim Clark...only one of two guys to beat the course up on Sunday...the struggling of the final group ie. Westwood and Allenby....the non- charge of Lefty...and the curious on course quit by Tiger...a foot note here, the scribes talk and show pix of the latter rather than the former...let it be already...

Did you see the finals of the Amazing Race?  The names the pairs call each other would be a problem anywhere else...regardless the brothers win, as the cowboys and the dating couple finish 2 and 3...the lowlight was where the lesbians verbally attack the beauty contestant once the race was over...see, I told you their names were something else...

It's Monday so it must be cleaning day...

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...
