Hot Topics...2010

Mid-Term elections....the expected rise of the republicans during a democratic regime...the unnamed backers of the "Tea Party" that are permeating that group...the colossal amount of money in it...the unguided naming of certain reps..."I am NOT a witch"...and your gurl, Sarah, hoping to commandeer the ship...

Out of sight salaries for movie stars....they keep churning the flix out...but with the cost of sitting in the seats...just how long can the $ hold up?  $22 for a pair, add on $12 for popcorn and coke...that's a hefty amount to shell out...

Out of sight salaries for sports stars...even more puzzling than the afore mentioned...especially shocking is the price per seat of the NBA...with this financial stressed out era, I just don't get it...is it that the owners have soooo much money that it's just a drop in the bucket?

Lindsey Lohan...man...is there a more visual mess than this out of whack gal...she thinks she is bigger than the law, and constantly flaunts how she can beat the system...am I missing something here?  It took all year for this train wreck...

The demise of the Padres...I know... a lot of you, could care less about this...just one game out of the playoffs, and the new, young gun GM, Jed Hoyer, figures he can restructure the team...with inferior talent...OMG...gets rid of the top players for average, below average, and double A maybe's...

The stock market...nobody talks about it...but the market has been in a steady rise...and if you had your money in the right stuff, you did very well...but do the networks emphasize it?  Not a negative story, so they leave it alone...too bad, it's a great thing...

The ongoing war against the Al Quida...even though the "leader" is nowhere to be found, there is enough evil people out there to keep us busy...try as we may, we can't dig up Osama...the times they are a changin'...always have to keep a step up on them...and it's not just in the US of A...evil, horrible, scum buckets...

The cost of gasoline...for all the reported change in the way the cars are being made...higher mpg, lighter frames, part battery powered, totally electric...the petrol just climbs...over $3.20 per gallon...I'm not offering a solution, just stating the facts, mam...

Well, kids, there are a bunch more out there....and probably more important to you...but these are the ones that have kept me thinking...it is a good thing...

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...
