Cyber Monday

Most of you will probably be smack dab in front of your computer, gazing at all the "Cyber Monday" deals...20 years ago, there were very few of us that had these wonders of technology...let alone, the internet...you know, the phenomena that Al Gore founded...his boast as he was named the running mate of Slick Willy...and paid for most everything you wanted and needed by this thinger called a "check"...and listened to the likes of Whitney Houston..."I Will Always Love You"...trying to figure out how to buy a $122,000 home...or a $17,000 car...to keep up with the pace of the everyday family...on a $23,000 a year salary...yup, that was 1992...the year that Ross Perot entered the prez race...and it exploded from there...

Now, you can buy anything...ANYTHING...on the net...and it is a whole easier than running down to the mall and finding that special gift...UPS has to be ecstatic...you can even by a car...and how many of you still have a land line for a telephone?...you know, the corded thing that is connected to the wall...with the spiraling cord that holds that talking and hearing device so nicely in your hand...not me...

What's the best deals out there?...geez, try Amazon, Overstock, Ebay, and on and on...they all are offering sweet ones...seems most everyone is getting a tablet reading device...where you can get a book, in lieu of the hard bound physical object that you hold in your hands...lots of options out there...I still like the feel of the book, Marsh just the opposite...

My oh my...the Bolts found another way to lose...this time nursing a 10 point lead in the 4th...like 5 1/2 minutes to go...and the topper in the last 2 minutes...up by 3...with Baltimore in a must situation...4th and 29...and drop the ball off to their RB, who gets the 29...and tie it at the buzzer, then win in OT...the Trib's writers are merciless on Norvy...

Pink slip day for other coaches...as Auburn (wow, the champ 2 years ago), NC State, BC, Purdue, Cal, clean house...c'mon SD, follow up and get rid of this mess...

Don't look now, but SDSU continues it's rise in hoops...knocking off USC in LA...with two key guys out...be aware...

Think that Rory McIlroy is not the best in the game right now...he just won in Dubai, and is the money winner in the European AND American tours...

Where's my sudoku?...

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...
