Poinsettia Bowl

If you read Kirk Herbstreit's tweets, you'd a thunk last night's Poinsettia Bowl, here in SD, was a clunker...he was right...just an awful display of ineptitude on the offensive side of the football...BYU won...as SDSU plays the game that was played 20 or 30 years ago...power, slow, and unimaginative...boring...and you wouldn't have got it from the telecast, but it was cooooolllllddddd....

Yesterday's topic about the Bedford Boys...I have got further in the book...shocking, senseless, waste of lives...the depiction of the landing on the beach of Normandy in the 2nd World War...sacrificial lambs, so to speak...I can't think of a more insidious way of conquering the enemy...by piling up dead bodies and wearing down the Germans...the more I read, the more incensed I get...what a horrible period of time for the world...

Rick Adelman's Timberwolves...starring former Oregonian, Brian Love...and a collection of European stars...kind of a cool collage...I wonder if they all speak the same language?...wherever Rick goes, he wins...and he will win with this team...as they knocked off the hot Thunder (Supersonics)...and the hottest team in the NBA?...yup, my, yup I said, MY CLIPS...I've been here over 4 years now, so I can change up...in fact, I'm going to get a Clippers Cap today...hate me all you want...I'm going to follow my comedic hero, Billy Crystal...

This is the last day that I shop for Xmas...outside of my selfish Cap gift...and will trudge through the shops looking for some unique little thing that my recipients won't take back or toss away...another of dad's awful presents...you would be shocked at how this area displays itself for Xmas (and Hannakuh)...so beautiful and vibrant...tonight we take the kids to a restaurant that sits on top of a 10 or 12 story building, that is so lit up, you'd think you were at the North Pole...OK, that's a little deep, but it is way cool....Mister A's...

I know you are wondering how I am holding up to my latest work out regimen...so sore...the lifting of weights did me in...but walking the course, was great...my thing of taking the Centrum Vitamins seems to be working...I feel better and stronger...thanks for asking...

And you, yes you, have a wonderful 21st of December...take some time out for yourself...get a Starbucks whatever, turn on the latest Lady A Xmas CD, and groove all you want...

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...
