CMA's

Some of you out there are NOT country music followers...shame on you...it's a true and forceful collaboration of sounds, lyrics, melodies, and catchy fun...with many of the "stars" in the biz, now crossover hit makers...it is the best going...with the likes of Taylor, Miranda, Tim, Faith, Sara, and on and on....couple that with recent studs and studettes, Alabama, Brooks and Dunn, Dolly, Lynn,...shoot, the list goes on and on...anyway...the country music industry honors their best...the CMA's...hosted by the highly entertaining duo of Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood...I think for the 6th time...as their wit and charm take over the program...as you know, I am always in bewilderment about the voting process...in all awards programs...BUT...that is not the idea driven here...the show itself is great fun...with the newer stars performing their hits...LIVE...not lip-synced....it's on tonight at 8 on ABC...I think that time is right...dig it...

PBS had a show about Jimi Hendrix on last eve...I was surprised...with all the reading background I have on that musical time...and actually living through the era...what?...I had no idea that he was really a normal type...I always that he was a doped out, 24 hour druggee...which was not the case...interesting piece...yet, he still succumbed to the drugs on an overdose...which many of the musical peops fought their entire time...of that genre...

Got home in time to watch the Blazer feed of their match with Dwight Howard and the Rockets...let's be frank here...it was in PDX...Portland is a second or...third tier team...LA and their sophomore PG, were eaten up and spit out...by a team that is reportedly a poor defensive one...and Dwight looked like Superman...did whatever he wanted...sorry PDX fans, but it's true...a real downer...oh yea, Houston won by 15....could have been 30...

The line...what is jumping out at me?...the Ducks have gained a half point with their Thursday match at Stanford...at 10 1/2...New Mexico over the entire Air Force by 2 1/2...what?...Alabama over LSU by12...take that one...in fact, this is the only test on the sched for the Tide...and Arizona is a home team dog versus UCLA...hmmm...

I am playing in a T out at Sycuan in an afternooner...ha ha...which means we will finish in the dark...at the rate of speed we play...have no idea what the format is...I get there...will find out who I am with...and then get the rules....once a month they have these "1st Wednesdays" thingers....haven't been in one for at least 6 months...are you new here?...I'm expecting that query...

My FF team lost yet again...am propelling my way to the cellar...without a doubt...I have some incredibly bad guys...that routinely score less than their projected stats...and my subs are even worse...I would like to say there is some light at the end of the tunnel...nope...it's my plight...geez, I went through the same thing in beisbol....FIRE THE COACH!...oops, that's me...there is movement on this topic...

Wild Thing, All Along The Watch Tower,...

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...

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...
