Mind Games

So my good friend, Snooki, and I were going back into time and trying to come up with old names of burger joints in our youths...and then I asked others from that era...and the results?  Well, the names that were given still didn't ring a bell!  Which brings me to the question, when do we start forgetting?  Snooki, being slightly older than me, obviously has lost a little bit quicker...but outside, of like real problems, like dementia...is there going to be a resurrection?  I ask you, is there hope?  So to try to keep my mind sharp (er) , I play Soduko, everyday...and constantly read the what happened way back when on this day in the sports page...and eat plenty of vegetables...maybe I need to do what Cary Grant did to stay so aware...according to Dyan Cannon...

Which brings me to my next Q...when does the body become hopeless?  Sure you can adjust your face with botox and stretches and all...but is the cost of that prohibitive?  Or, is there anyone out there that looks better doing it?  They all look like freaks to me...imagine somebody as young as Kim K doing it...what?  Good lord, imagine her at 40...So don't you age gracefully...think of this, most gals cover up their hair early on and that's the way it is...I have tried to color my stache...it always looks fake...but, the gals look great...so I say, that is OK...but the rest?  Stick to what you got and try to get in shape...

So I am sounding so negative and that's not my point...however...I got this phone solicitation from the Padres yesterday...trying to get me to re-enlist in their season tix...I started by being fake and saying the normal, we can't afford it stuff (real)...but he pressed and I unloaded...told him the Pad product has gone poor...blamed it on the management...he was aghast and started to defend all the actions....oops, not to me, young man...I laid it out...how the team lost it's huge lead last year due to the guys they had to pick up to bolster their O...and the young guys who were doing so well, just sat...and the trade of AGonzo was a mess, as they should have waited and got more for him...all points he disputed...we left amicable and he knows I'm hopeless...tee hee...

DWTS...sure, it's pure TV...but I like it...and the worst dancers were saved by the voting public...and one of the better ones was knocked out...so, I guess you have to vote...but really!  Chubby Checker was on and he can still sort of rip it up...how old is he?  With the amount of folks watching this show, the "stars" must make a goodly amount, huh...

Time to workout...

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...
