Coffee

If you were to believe the latest "reports", one might think that coffee is good for you...recent studies find many things that support that...ward off cancer, fend off alzheimer...and on and on...fact is...it is a waker upper...a gold jolt for the am...and for most of us, the darker gives the best taste...I prefer french roast, or italian roast...anyway, the fresher the beans, the better the brew...

In the time I have been a blogging, I have gone thru like 4 or 5 different sources of finding the perfect cup of Joe...duh, the slang term for it in the 40's...er, 1940's...and with varying degrees of success or failure, depending on whether you see the glass half full or half empty...the latest is the Black and Decker Mill and Brew...does a good job...but it takes 15 minutes to get the carafe filled...and as you know, dispensed with the Keurig, as I had to clean it way too many times to keep it going right...and it wasn't hot enough for us...

Half empty?...are you one of the blokes that wake up and feel like, lordy I hope the day is better today...you only see the negative all around you?...or are you the ones that feel like this is going to be the best ever?...you either are one or the other...sorry kids, but it's the truth...

The first thing I do...in the am...while waiting for my Joe...is scan the web net for the latest...and most of it is the negative...who shot who...who failed where...you know what I mean...that's why I usually scour the sports...as it's mostly in the pos side...of course, not always...give me the scores and why the game went that a way...who's leading...and that kind of stuff...what the payouts were at Santa Anita...like the important part...

With the demise of the written word in print, it makes me wonder how much longer it takes to absorb all the pertinent daily news that way...you have to be dependent on the likes of USA Today, CNN, Fox, and the Huffington Post...or maybe, you go to a Yahoo, AOL, Google, or MSN conglomerate site...I have one that has just that...a bit of everything...my fav part?...the map of the US, with the weather on it...for the most part, makes me happy I live where I do...is that half full?...

I got told last night it is inexcusable that I fail to write every day...so, my apologies to you who read me...I will faithfully do my chosen skill...but...something has to tickle me to get me going...sometimes...

The Cavs whupped the Warriors...well, it was in Cleveland...and GS is on a horrid road trip...so the excuses are there...fact is, Lebron and company are dang good...probably the best in the league...now...

You do have Apple Stock, right?...

Tonight we will catch up on the taped shows we have...shhh, don't tell me about the Idol singers...

48-41...how about that for consistency...I am not a very good linkster...

The Pads are about ready for the Cactus...in the Trib today, the half empty side emerged...are we strong enough up the middle?...can't have everything, right?...

The tour is in Florida...PGA...and the blokes who win out west, never win in the east...really?...yup, diff type of grass...and there are those who can only play on specific stuff...seems crazy to me...it's tuff everywhere I play...north, south, east and west...

Is Breaking News ever good?...

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...
