Vegaz

There is no better deal out there than that at the Mirage...just join MLife and you will get deals that are extraordinary...so much to do...and you don't have to go crazy gambling...the pool is fantastic...absolutely humongous and well worth the trip...high 80's in the am and the sunning could not be better...
We did much of the normal stuff...the dolphins thing was cool...went to Fremont...ate at Monamiegabie...ha ha, what ever it is called at Paris...watched a Blues Bros Act...went to the Bellagio and saw their latest flower thinger...sunbathed, drank, and ate....and did some gambling....
I bet on the mighty Padres....as they were favored for the first time in 8 weeks...you heard me right...and they were prohibitive favs...how'd that work out?...the seller was laughing at me...he couldn't remember the last time SD was on the give side...and, of course, the Pads, were shut out and I lost...
However, I did bet on the Pro Football Champs, on the Bolts and the 49ers...my two hopefuls for the season...great odds on SD...ha ha, really?...25-1....

And my other passion...hoss racing...Delmar opened up yesterday....47,339 people...don't tell me horse racing is dead...I'll go Friday or Sunday...it is the opening act of all down here...ladies in their finest garb and hats...and they all bet huge sums of $...actually a million more than last year...and the weather right now is perfect...you bet I'm ready... I am a big pick 3, 4, and 5 fan...which means I study the form the nite prior...how'd I get into this?...when I was 16 and my buddy Jack Dent and I were at the OSF...we had a "sure thing" for a quinella...ran around the place looking for somebody to bet for us...finally found each other in time to watch the race...photo finish...both were ticked as the results were not looking in our favor...boom!...the numbers were lit up....We won!...little did we know that we both got someone to get our tix...we cashed twice for $45.80...in them there days, and our ages, that was huge...and I was hooked...no idea about Jack...

Are you following the election stuff?...the polls fluctuate more than the stock market...and I'm going to tell you...just don't get too excited until the debates...then go and get your dander up...I know half of you are GOP...just don't get ticked at me for my slant...you can voice your side any time you want...

Off to the grocery store...out of everything...I hear we are on a new diet...starches are history...more fish and here we go again...

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...
