Books

Finally, yes, finally a book that is intriguing me...will be out on Tuesday...written by a professor from Amherst...tales about the occupation of France during the 2nd World War by the Germans...how the collaboration worked...and the need to survive...hmmm...called "When Paris Went Dark"...hope it's on Nook...ah hem...pre-ordered it...$8.99...

Have you read "Unbroken" yet?...absolutely spell binding...and a movie is being made of it...will knock your socks off...

I can't think of any John Grisham book I didn't like...

I just can't imagine reading the novel, wait, nonfiction one by Hillary, "Hard Choices"...

And the absurd, Abby Lee Miller...you know, the Dance Moms luny....she is signing this week at Coronado...have to get over there...NOT!...

Did you know that the NFL kicks off this eve?...the Hall of Fame game...eegads...and the rest of the league gets going this week...

You used Uber yet?...it just got started in the Salem area while we were there...and get this...Marsh left her invaluable "reunion photo" in the car...and the driver actually sent it to her in SD...wow!...

Brag rights here...made a lasagna last eve...and it was so good...the key?...cooking the spinach before...of course, it was in butter....but come on....so bueno...and using whole milk Ricotta...

Almost gave up on the Pads...took 12 innings...OT...and we pulled it off...against the "Braves"...some of them idiot fans were using the "chop" as they were leading early...ha ha...guess it's better than flipping the finger...turrible managing by Atlanta's skipper...as he used his ace closer for 38 pitches...and was out of gas...good for us...

We are getting much needed rain...well, you might call it drizzle...and when the weather guys and gals call for storms here...it's kind of a joke...PNWers, you KNOW what I mean...

Sergio and Rory...right now the class of the PGA...wouldn't believe that Garcia could resurrect his career...but he has done it...

Saw a great interview of old PGAer Lanny Wadkins...a real one...I mean, he told the truth...and it was a glimpse of what it was really like, back 30 or 40 years ago on the tour...on the show, "Feherty"...catch it...

Concern...another horse went down at Del Mar...this time on the regular track...are these just run too often?...drugs?...has to be a reason...the surface of the track?...hmmm...

We are but a month away from our annual excursion to Maui...

Somebody gots to do it...might as well be us...

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...
