Maybe we should call it VENTING...er, well, I dunno...used to be you'd call someone up on the tele, and say what disgusts you...or, maybe, do the same and say what it is so great about something...now, the famous people...who depend on the masses for popularity and fame, call it haters...if you say something bad about them...and, in this age of social media...it's all out there...and the same thing that made them what they are...they are talking trash about the medium...

There are good parts...not sure of anything more "right now" than Twitter...and it's used by anyone...not just a biased news service...but, it's unfiltered and that may be bad...and Facebook...where you can see what others not only say, but what they look like, and what they are doing...which is kind of cool...and there are others that you may be aware of...

The web net triggers me mind most every day...I have a number of sources that I gander at before I write each time...

BREAKING...we are having thunder and lightning...which is so rare here...very dark right now...needed rain, kids...

And I have listed the best sites before...and I use all sides of the spectrum for info...right, left, sports, life, and well, everything...not sure that I don't sift through and find things that are different from my normal thoughts...maybe I'm stubborn...or dumb...well, certainly not that...

Idol...well now...there is only one left that has any chance to have an impact on the biz...and make some $...does not mean she will win...usually goes to some southeast guy with a guitar...that is the apparent target of the majority of the voters...which is seemingly a very coveted item...that no one needs to know...I say Jax should be the victor...

Deflategate...the QB in question...Tom Brady, he's defiant about the findings of the league...that he had general acknowledgment of the reducing the pressure of the footballs that he used in the game...c'mon...is that not what the path of the biker dude used?...when he was accused of PEDS?...something smells to high heaven...and is this going to court?...I bet not...he wants it to go away...fat chance, Tommy...you will be fined heavily...and so will your team...just a hunch...

A throw away game...what the Pads did last eve in Zona....a pathetic effort by the SD pitcher...and Buddy just left him in...give the game up after 1 inning...down 4...and let Odie continue on for a shellacking...11-0 bummer...save the bullpen...eegads, I dislike this effort by the player and the manager...turned it off early...imagine if I spent money watching that fiasco...or anyone did...

The Players...did you take a look at who is leading?...the bigs are back in the pack...and if you like your Tiger viewing, you're in luck...as the Golf Channel shows every hole of his...even if he's over par..."good for the sport", is the cry...still...you must look at the 17th hole with the infamous island green...them blokes hit 'em like all of us hacks...and it's but a 9 or wedge...geez...

The Stocks...surging up 175 pts...as the unemployment rate drops to 5.4%...the lowest rate since 2008...who is responsible for this, Repubs?...you ?...I digress...

Can you fathom what the parties are in Britain?...Margaret Thatcher's Party won...do they only have two like us?...wait, we have 3...counting the Tea Party...

Imagine if the NBA Playoffs were one game...like in the college ones...now, THAT would be drama...instead, we have a long drawn out series of the best of 7...in each round...lasts forever...even for a hoop's junkie like me...

For those of you who know me well...we have vehicles that are 2004 makes...and have not had a newbie, well, for over 10 years...some type of personal record...they are in GREAT shape...nice not having car payments, I must say...and...I watched a number of episodes of Fast and Now...last eve...you know, where these blokes from Dallas Texas...find old rigs...rebuild them...and sell them...I like it...

The local rag...The Union Trib...has been bought out by the blokes who own the LA Times...and we'll see what the changes will end up being...they say little...I doubt that...leave the sports section alone...it's a good one...

Time for some grub...and the housekeep is on duty this am...
