The Sixties

The 60's...
CNN and Co-Produced by Tom Hanks..."The Sixties"...how can this NOT be good?...a weekly series of that time in the very turbulent US of A...what?...it was love, peace, and happiness, right?...well now...

My teenage days...where we were blessed to have the wonderful orator for a Prez...JFK...and then the assassination...that changed the way the country viewed television...and depth of coverage of what REALLY is going on...

What has revved up my engine is the aftermath...when LBJ took over...and our insane involvement in the Vietnam War...how we were duped...how evil our leaders of the country really were...how many lives of our soldiers were needlessly lost due to pathetic politicians...

Which lead to a revolution of sorts...and the youth of the US rebelled...and joining in were most of the Americans....and rather than do the right thing...Johnson passed on the dilemma and quit...I remember that night so well....I was greatly elated....

You MUST take a look at it...meaning the TV show...it is remarkably well done...

LPGA...
Michelle Wie persevered....and won her 1st major...it was in dramatic fashion...as she had her lead drop to 1...with 2 holes to go...Stacy Lewis came out of nowhere and posted a score of even...and then...Michelle birdied the 17th and had a 2 stroke cushion to finish the 18th...she is now...the BEST of the ladies...

World Cup...
No matter what you say...I just am NOT a big follower...I did watch the last 20 minutes or so...and the elation of the US victory was demolished with a last minute goal by the Portugal team...thus a tie...kissing my what?...go OT...get yourself a winner...

Padres...
Not really sure what's going on...as the owners fired the Prez and GM, Josh Byrnes...and this is going to save the season?...me thinks that there is a lot behind the scenes here...and the real need is much deeper...as I have said before...over and over...and what did the team do?...another anemic hitting day and lost to the Bums...and the series...and off to SF...to get drilled yet again...and this team is in disarray...get this...we have a Cuban going for us today...as Cashner is shelved...hmmm...the 1st move by the new GM conglomerate?...

PGA...
Have to talk about this...Kevin Streelman won the event in Connecticut...birdieing the last 7 holes!...what?...now THAT'S called closing...

Coffee...
Starbucks has announced a significant jump in their prices...starting tomorrow...you heard it here first...the coffee shortage is here...and will hit you in the pocket book...

Summer shows...
You have any that are intriguing you?...the new singing one on ABC?...the Bachelorette?...something odd there...where are you Big Brother?...I need some mindless, er brainless, summer viewing...

 OK, there you go...have a great start to the week...

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...
