Finally

It's the final day for this session's horse racing out at Del Mar...and guess what?...we are going!...and there is this way cool method of getting there...it's called the Pony Express...

Travel by the Coaster Train (Amtrak) from downtown to Solana Beach...home of the race track...and then catch a shuttle...the tix includes admission...and Voila!...we are there...saves the problem of driving...as it gets a little crazy going  and coming....let alone the price of parking your rig, $15...

The cost for the round trip is $11 each...so, it's a great deal...and we will inhabit the infield...so some of us (me) can smoke a stogie to boot...we are meeting our amigos, the Allens, there...Pick 5, here I come!...

The Pads won again...albeit a walk off...HR...by the newly called up 3B, Cory Spangenberg...who has had two straight game winner hits...in the only two games he's been here for...let's say it's a bang for him...and a very good thing...thank goodness for the DBacks...

My fantasy football team consists of two of my top 7 choices...QB Rodgers of the Pack and WR D Thomas of the Broncos...and guess who my 1st game is against?...my son...so sorry for him...ha ha...I'm actually debating about sitting my top guy, cuz GB is playing at Seattle...and use my backup, Kaepernik...hmmm...what?...

It's Wednesday and time for the line...er, betting line...the Ducks are holding firm at 13...SDSU getting 15 at North Carolina...really?...I say take all them points...Army and Navy, both favored...when has that happened since the 60's?...Stanford by 3 over USC...OK...Notre Dame by 4 1/2 over Michigan...at ND...Ore St traveling to Hawaii and giving up 12 1/2...sure, take that...and the odd line of the weekend....Arizona by only 7 over UTSA...what?...

Speaking of that type of thing...do you wager on the NFL?...not me...as I get totally lost on the games....I might as well throw my $ out the window...

Well, I have to download the past performances and start studying...wish me luck...

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...
