50th

Morning kids...and in a few hours I will travel up north for the...gulp...50th High School Reunion!...have to say, these past few 50 have gone way too fast...ha ha...I can remember thinking that when I graduated, I had no idea what I was going to do...here we go again, I am thinking the same...

When you have over 900 in a class, you can imagine how many ways the people split...and went so many directions...I'm hearing that the number of mates is around 200...22%...kind of like the numbers of the Donald...I digress...is this normal?...I know "the committee" has been working long and hard at getting this date together...must be near impossible to keep in touch with a lot of the kids...

Regardless, we will have a good time...and I'll taketh some pix...playing golf in the 100* temp will be a challenge...and then rest up enough to head on out to the social...asking a lot...you know, the group pix and the food...the memo came out that they are going to take two separate pix and combine 'em...cuz of the size of the class...hmmm...

Other stuff...

With all the hullaballoo over the trades impending for the Pads...I mean, read any of the "informed" pundits...and they said that SD was going to make whole scale changes...so far?...none...have two days left...anyway...as bad as we were two nights ago, we went 180* and looked like world beaters last eve...had like 15 hits and won easily...albeit, one of their blokes hit 3 solo dingers...a mean feat...rubber match this am, our time...

Those who have made moves...the one that shocks me...is the Bums picking up Matt Latos from Florida...they have as good already chucking for them...and, in fact, much better...maybe they are packaging him with others to get somebody else...must be it...

I can't put my mind around the sicko that kills the animals (wild?) for his trophy wall...it just galls me...and there has to be some form of punishment, right?...so sad...

Apparently, they found the plane...at least remnants...unbelievable...

CNN special series...if you liked their Sixties one, you'll like the Seventies, too...behind the scenes is Tom Hanks...he produced both...such quality products...and absolutely great footage...BTW, it seems like the students these days do not have the historical knowledge of the generation of mine...base this on when you ask them about that era...they know nothing...

Deflategate...is it just me, or if the owner declared what the Pat's guy did, in other sports he would get fined a huge amount of $...they cheated...have before...and it's all about the W...am I right or am I right?...no respect here...

Tiger says he's got it figured out now...when I hear that, then I think he doesn't...I have said that so many times, and went out and played miserably...just like he's been doing...not that there is any comparison in this world, other than the statement he made...

Going up to the PNW, I am always on the lookout for cool Duck's stuff...this time is the same...I can't tell you how many times I wear my UO gear, and people tell me "Go Ducks!"...really...lots of supporters in the GQ...

Finally, yup, finally got the heat pump fixed...it was two bad wires...bad thing though...to get at them, we had to take off a door...boo...and then...we drove the SUV, cuz we hadn't for awhile...and we were shake, rattle, and rolling along...not good...took into our tire place...needed new tires, alignment, and front brakes redone...eegads...a thou later and we are set...ha ha...BTW, drove like riding on air, going home...

Great chance that I won't be writing while up N, so figure on some down time here for this blog...check it out everyday, just in case I do...I may gab a bit....

Getting hungry....

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...
