Freedom Riders

In the groundbreaking times of the 60's...there was the racial equality movement of the Freedom Riders...in the south...er, southeast...and the beginning of the television coverage of the same was in it's infancy...regardless, it was a terrifying time for those on the buses...

Just as so, is another of these similar things...happening right now...as there are busloads of young immigrants being transported to parts of the US...to be assimilated...a fact that protesters abhor...and their way of dealing with it is by blocking the passage ways of the buses...

Hmmm...the theory must be to scare the daylights out of the immigrants right back across the US border, right?...and the bus driver, too...in lieu of the real issue...the policy of the country...seems to me like this method of confrontation is the worst way possible...

People, these are people, who want to be free of harm and danger...and you want to deny them this...by instilling your own harm and danger...eegads...

And...

The US in the World Cup...get beat by Belgium...I watched this...got outplayed...the Belgians have better blokes...albeit, the US goalie was marvelous...looked to me that the youngsters that played minimally for us, gave a big lift...by the way, who wins this event?

Just after closing out a most disgusting month of June...def a June swoon...the Pads unleashed a season high 16 hits!...in ONE game...and won their 3rd in a row...it's a long season...and well...we have some parts that need to be upgraded...not in the pitching area, though...duh...

As we get closer to the next major...in the PGA...over the pond...the British Open...I have to find 5 guys who have a chance at the win...no brags here, just facts...I have won 3 of the 4 events thus far...sure seems like the vets do well in these...so...that's the way I am leaning...shhh, don't tell anyone...

This is a very busy month for concerts for us...get this...Cher...Boz...and the 60's, i.e. the Turtles...amongst others...and then we have trips to PS...and to Orygun...and the race track opens up out at Del Mar...a filled up time...all and all, should be a groovy set of gigs...

Finally this...as I was coming back from golf on Monday...in my rig...I noticed this at the local speed hospital...like they are called something other than that...a gentleman was in a wheel chair, waiting patiently at the front door...I was at a light...you KNOW how long they are...nobody would let him in...and walking down the street was this 10 (about) year old boy...stopped...opened the door for him...it was SO COOL!...just a bit from the other side...

Hey...YOU...have a wack Wednesday...
