TROUBLE

Monster word, huh...you are in TROUBLE, mister...the TROUBLE with that is...double TROUBLE...you get my drift...this time it applies to the Brooklyn Nets...formerly known as, the New Jersey Nets...moved the franchise...and got themselves a gunslinging owner...well, he throws his $ around...from Russia...really!...anyway...they hired a rookie coach...who had never done that job anywhere....ANYWHERE!...believe me, it is an acquired trait...one thing is to play, it is a totally different thing pulling the strings...Jason Kidd...and he is floundering...yes, he has had a bunch of injuries...and they went out and got some veterans to make them a solid contender...RIGHT NOW...but these blokes are old and brittle...and the team is losing...like lots...and now even worse stuff...he fired, er reassigned, his right hand man, Lawrence Franks...difference of opinions...Franks had been an NBA Head Coach, twice...read between the lines, kids...yup, TROUBLE in Brooklyn...

You heard of these things called Google Glasses?...it appears that one gal got a ticket from a police officer...for wearing them while driving...here in SD...my Q is, how on earth did he pick that out?...she is in big TROUBLE!...

Hey, I get why the player would sign for 7 years...and he is going to the hated rival NY Yankees, from the Bosox...but why would the franchise pay that type of $ for that long a contract?...CF Jacoby Ellsbury...by the way, a Native American...because they spend $ like that...what salary cap?...doesn't apply to the Yanks or Bums...

Went kind of crazy and filled up my Xmas recordings on my Apple TV...downloaded some of my CD's...and then added the likes of Connie Francis and Doris Day....what?...go to iTunes and you'll see, er hear, why I did...legendary...and beautiful...

It's Wednesday and it's time for the LINE...hey, one that sticks out big time...the Bolts are favored over the Giants...what?...history here...before Crazy Horse invaded this area...back in '04...SD drafted Eli Manning and then traded him for Phillip Rivers, of the Giants...cuz daddy Manning wouldn't let little Eli play for the Chargers...really...and since...little Eli has never, ever, beaten SD...and the Vegas guys know that...and SD is  favored by 3...take the points and NY...

The Padres...the GM Byrnes said he was going to improve the bullpen...and get a lefty hitter...well, he did it with one swift trade....to Oakland...picked up OF Seth Smith for setup guy, Luke Gregerson...who CH thinks is way past his prime...and that's being nice...

The Blazers host the Thunder (Supersonics) tonight...and are favored by 1...what, one?...make it a toss up...wasn't that long ago that the Seattle/PDX game was THE RIVALRY...until the new OKC owners pulled the plug and moved the franchise...

Hungry...time for some grub....

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...
