Friends

Hey,  Lance Armstrong , isn't that your FRIEND ,  Floyd Landis , throwing you under the bus ?  In a very creepy world of bicycling , one of his team mates said that his buddy, too, was drugging while performing...I know it's a big deal (bikers) in Europe, but not so much around here...like the game of soccer (boooooring)...nothing surprises me about PEDS ... My under-achieving fantasy team just picked up...the one and only...DH from the Red Sox... David Ortiz ... Talk about futility....the Pads go up to Seattle and lay a huge egg...still trying the arm of Lefty Ramos ...who gave up 7 more runs in one inning ....after doing the similar fate a week ago in SF...just when does Buddy go out and save him and us from this non-sacred cow ... A bit of a save from the stocks yesterday as the European market still affects ours... I vowed that when we sell our Orygun home we are going on a month long stint to Europe...you know this is a huge deal as I'm not the world's ...

Lu Lu Awards

OK, I'll admit, these are the lamest awards of the moment ...and some of these recipients are carry overs from some of the other awards that I have given in the past... These are given to the L east U nderachieving L ousiest U nworthy people (s) in the planet at this moment...for their popularity... The Jonas Bros ....I know it's the teeny bopper thinger...but they can't sing, can't dance, but, think they can...remember them caterwauling with Stevie Wonder last year...OMG... Lindsay Lohen ...spinning out of control...defying the legal system...up against a female judge...with a parent group that has their own issues...jail time seems imminent... Sarah ...for opening her mouth anywhere...her countless moments of speaking on behalf of ???  I guess herself, 'cuz nobody wants to get a tag from her... The tall lady from the Witches of NY ...for the attacks on anybody that she comes across...and doesn't see that she's a wack job...witch... And this is just t...

Surprise

Image
How about this for a link you'd  be surprised about...this feller <<<<<<<<< starter with the Princeton hoops squad, led the Padres to a 10-5 shellacking of the surging Dodgers ...the 1st time as the leadoff hitter, he was 4-5 and set the table for AGonzo's big 6 rbi night ...right, it is Will Venable , without hair...and, can you believe this...the Pads actually have another with the same hoops/bb background...from the same school!  Chris Young ... Idol ...I don't really want to talk about this...but, the goldilocks got his bags packed and is out of the building...it's down to Crystal and Lee ...the best of this year's not so good version... So how does your Lindsay Lohen look at herself in the mirror every morning?  Wow... 5 days until the CSN show... The stock market is taking a huge hit right now... What am I going to do with out my Survivor fix on Thursdays? The bachelorette cranks up on Monday...good on her as she got...

Baby Steps

Image
Well now, all you Orygunians , you have a real dilemma on your hands...in your choice for the next governor, the conservative side came up with, get this...a former Blazer center, CHRIS DUDLEY ...with no, nada, zilch, never, nunca, zero, absolutely an empty slate of political experience in his quest to be the state's leader...these are baby steps for such a huge man...of course, he is pitted against the dem's Kitz , who has to be a prohibitive fav...cool stuff, let's just see where he goes in his maiden voyage... Turn away I'm hideous ...the mantra for the Pads in their first loss to the Giants...SD was going with the only pitcher they had left in the 12th...Ramos, who got rocked and socked...on to LA for a 2 game series with the Dodgers...fingers crossed... DWTS ... Ocho-cinco got the boot...yup, it is the correct result, even though it meant the babe Cheryl is gone... Idol ...don't hate me for this...but...they were all AWFUL ... screechy, pitchy, off key,...

Montecito Mansion

Image
You know I can't fathom how the politicians talk one way and turn right around and live a different way of life...your democratic green boy, Al Gore , mysteriously purchased a 9.5 million MANSION is Montecito, Cali...of course it has like a 1.5 acre spread, and all the amenities that is expected...and he hasn't quite gone green on supplying the power to it, I 'm sure he will...he talks about the solar panels and all in the works...let's just wait and see how this one goes...by the way, his name was not on the original buyers list... why the secrecy ? Can you tell me why the stock market ebbs and flows? DWTS. .. Pussy Cat or Olympian ?  Recent history favors the Olympians...me, I can't imagine anyone better than the Hawaiian gal...but he is unbelievable, too... Pads jumped back to a game and a half lead, as they returned to winning against the 2nd place Giants...yeh...brought up their new LF in Donorfio...KBlanks needs more seasoning...terrific outing by Clay...

Panic Monday

Image
My oh my...the panic mode has set in as the hitless Padres got swept by the hated Dodgers ...this time 1-0...so all the scribes are talking gloom and doom and how the Pads are beginning their fall from grace...give me a break...fact is they are not hitting ...and the lineups are bewildering...they must manufacture runs...by any of their guys...which means even the oh so lazy AGonzo has to lay down a bunt to boot...and on it goes...in comes the SF Giants who we have whupped 6 straight... Manic Monday ? Did you watch your Survivor final?  The winner was Sandra ...narrowly beating out Parvati and the rat Russell ...so they go all about NY in their post dance routine... Monday, Monday ... The NBA playoffs ( booooo ) are down to 4 teams (I think) and the Celts won at Orlando for game number 1....now it's the Lakers and Suns in the west... Booooring Monday ... Did you follow the plight of the roids gal Marion Jones ?  With all the rage of the athletes that used roids ...

What's Going On

Image
The lineup has changed in a bizarre fashion the last 2 nights and I am left bewildered on all counts...you know I'm talking the Padres and it's manager Bud Black (Buddy) ....the recent history goes....the leader of the west by 3 1/2 games, coming off a sweep of the 2nd place Giants...using the speed group to secure the wins...and wooah, he starts doing the lefty against righty and righty against lefty crap...which he hasn't being doing... dance with who brung ya, Buddy .... What's Going On ...to start ancient Matt Stairs in the biggest game thus far of the season is a colossal boner...not only is he a non-starter, but is the worst hitter on a poor hitting team...couple that with using Hundley in lieu of Torrieba at C is downright goofy... Mercy, Mercy, Me ...not pulling K Correa after 5 innings, when he was up with a runner on base, was another bone job...use your outstanding bull pen big guy...KC was just coming off a tragedy and did what he could...as he gave up a...
