Blazers!

All you rabid anti-Clipper fans, you had your night last night...as the mighty PDX Blazers got a huge win at home versus the hated Heat of Miami...yup, the LeBron led group from Florida...Portland got very good efforts from 4 of their starters and won it at the end...duh...at the end...and much to my surprise, are actually playing better D...their PG Lillard is a lock for ROY...and Batum is a force with his long arms and solid play...Aldridge is still soft...sorry kids, but it's true...if he is in the mix by the hoop, it's purely by accident...OK...it puts the Blazers in the discussion for the playoffs...way ahead of the Lake Show...who, if you listen to the scribes, are going to correct themselves and take over for Portland...ha ha...no way...so enjoy the win...

What does it mean to a golf T if the one and only Tiger Woods commits to it?...it is said to boost the attendance up 30%...I think that is under value...more like 50%...as he did so for the upcoming Farmer's out at Torrey Pines in a few weeks...my son is coming down and we will go on over for a day...seriously, you get to see him for a couple of holes...the entourage is incredible...he brings a whole new feel to the course...really...have you ever been to one when he was there?...you can hear his crowd all over place...and if Lefty gets going, it is magical...

Well, we got the Nespresso...and don't like it...the amount of Expresso that comes out is too small for our robust likes in coffee...we need the big ones...it is a fantastic machine...pop in the pod, and the liquid comes out near instantly...but, with our limited space in our condo kitchen it would be an add on to the normal coffee pot...back to the drawing board...

The Academy Awards...the most foolish of them all...I can't tell you how many times I have looked at the winners and wondered how in the hell they won...anything...and the lack of pats on the back for a comedy film...which is basically ignored by this goulash group...we watch to see the pretty people being pretty...and some yahoo gets a trophy to go along with his or her $15 million for making a film...geez, I am one negative dude today...

It is so cold down here...it gets to like to 39* at night...and will even get to 32* later in the week...we are not talking about El Cajon, but in downtown...!!!...throw in the wind and it feels like I am back in the frigid PNW...this is the worst it's been since moving here...boo...of course, it gets back up to the 50's later on...but still...

Another school shooting...this time in the LA area...and a teacher talked the kid down...man, I just don't know...we talk about this all the time...first of all, we have to get the guns off the streets...the rabid fire ones...it will take time...but must start now...and invest in security in every school...my wife said, how about NRA volunteers...they all seem to be armed and ready...most people talk about band aid approaches...get the guns, then go from there...

Watched the Ducks beat the previously undefeated Wildcats of Arizona...ragged, ugly type of game...both teams just not that good...have I told you how much I don't like the way that basketball is coached anymore?...fundamentals are a thing of the past...dribble dribble...pass...dribble dribble...pass...dribble dribble...on ball screen...dribble dribble...shoot...repeat...booo...

I'm looking out at the sky right now...not a cloud in it...yet bloody cold...

 PS...Quick Wampum ...WON...the 2nd race at Santa Anita yesterday...man...

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...
