37 Years

It's been 37 years since a 3 yr old horse has won the Triple Crown...talk about a very difficult journey for a sport...these animals are bred to be runners...and it's been a very risky business to put your $ in...there is a lot of cost to keep the horses going...and we are talking the cream of the crop...

The Belmont...the longest of the 3 races...and one of the main topics of the naysayers...is that these races are too close together...and it's too hard on the animals...maybe...I dunno...the one thing about this sport, is that the people in the biz, are very stubborn...and have very little change in their system...

The last winner was Affirmed...ridden by Steve Cauthen....and there have been a many that have won the 1st 2 legs...and have been beaten in the 3rd...I think that American Pharaoh will get 'er done...the trainer is So Cal's own Bob Baffert...he has his hosses down here in Del Mar...the win odds will be low...like 3-5...I'll watch the board...I have put him on top of a trifecta key...and took a long shot on a $2 exacta wheel...

Golf...The Memorial...at Jack's place...where we were so used to watch Tiger dominate...well now, Woodsy barely made the cut...and is poised to make a move on Saturday...hmmm, don't bet on it...the leader?...another no-namer...how about me golf?...yup, we won the T...by 4!...which is a lot...and I lurve to see my name up in the top slot on the board...as I told you before, my partners were dang good...

Every bloke got a hit in the Pads win at Cincy...geez, a lot of stuff is happening in Ohio...other than the pitchers...in fact, we had 3 dingers...Norris, Venable (what a season!), and Middlebrooks...and a solid pitching effort by Ty Ross...and there you go...a series opening W!...doesn't happen too often...today, the hard luck Cash goes...hmmm....and don't look now...but we are 3 1/2 back in the west...what?...

All day long, I yearned for a donut...er, doughnut...even thought about making some from scratch...which didn't happen...and still have that void in my mind...and tummy...something tells me that I'm gonna get me some today....

Yes, I still love the Beamer...it's a great rig...and I get a lot of congrats...especially when the top is down...

Hey, this has been an issue for 3 or 4 years...the baseball bats are made out of a lesser type of wood...maple...and they shatter so much easier...and as the Pad's announcers have been saying..."it's only time before somebody gets seriously injured"...well, it did yesterday...in Boston...a lady fan was hit...and is in very serious condition...get your act together, MLB...this can be fixed...

I have time...so....this guy is gonna work on his irons...my goal is to stand a bit taller...and take the same swing I use for my hybrids...will take many, many swings to get it into my memory bank...I need to change it...

Silence...that's what you are going to hear...when the Chargers season begins this year...the owners are frauds...and will get hit in the pocketbook this time around...you can throw up just so much smoke...as they load up their trucks and move north...

How about an egg and cheese san?...

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...
