99...Way Cool

Mighty early this am, don't you think?...the Horse is up...hurt me knee golfing...what?...yup...sometime on the 9th or 10th hole...really...have no idea how...just became very painful...and it felt like the kneecap...anyway, I could not plant on the left leg...as I was having my best round all year, of course...started with 5 straight pars...

Took some Alleve...and grunted it out...still finished with an OK score...would have been really good...and iced the bloody thing...it's too tight to go today...give it a bit of rest...and should be fine...thanks for asking...

OK, it was only 99* out at Sycuan...felt like 100*...

A feat that had never ever happened before for the Pads...a dude hitting for the cycle...a single, a 2B, a 3B, and a HR...EVER in the history of the club...many have had 3 parts of it...until..last eve...in Colorado...as Matt Kemp accomplished it...go ahead and compare the bloke that took over for him in LA...right...we did good...BTW, these Padres tell us to give them time to gel...these are all new guys that have to meld...as SD got a W...

Speaking of W...why does Jeb have to defend what the former Prez Bro did?...he wasn't part of it...it's nothing but historical facts...that's all...get on with it...what is Jeb going to do?...that must be the Q...

BTW, the other thing the Pads haven't done...EVER...is pitching a no hitter...well, not on this version of them...not these blokes...maybe next year...

NFL Network had the Seahawks/Bronco pre-season farce on last eve...as I am lying in bed, whimpering over my hurt knee (sorry)...I watched moments of the game...what on earth are those fans doing?...it was in the PNW...and they were screaming their heads off, like it was a counter...c'mon people, get a life...

Just when you couldn't tell me anything more about ISIS that would hate them more...the story about their gal captive...how the leader continually raped her prior to killing her...totally subhuman...(s)...

Back to school...shivers down my back...as all the stores are stocking up for the opening day...so many ads...

Timing....it's all timing...as the day after I went to Del Mar...the longer shots came in...and there were some decent Pick 3's and 5...dang...all timing...

The PGA...whoa...there are a bunch of blokes near and at the top...ie, my pick, Jason Day...Spieth is a couple back...amongst a whole gaggle of 'em...good stuff...and why oh why does the lens have to follow Tiger any more?...he has fallen off the charts as quickly as David Duvall did...look for Rory to make a run today...just a hunch...

You have to catch the melt down of the one and only John Daly...as he was doing his version of Tin Cup...he kept slamming the ball into the drink...and he finally got the ball over the canyon...and then threw his club into Lake Michigan...er, one of them 1,000 lakes...been there, done that...

This next week, Marsh's office is going on a trek to the races...in the upper level...where you have to wear dresses (gals), I presume...and the dudes have to wear Sport Coats and closed toed shoes...this is from her boss to me...I have only flip flops...do they make them closed toe?...what is a Sport Coat?...time to go shopping...

OK...the sound system is in...the new TV, too...and it is a spectacle...unbelievable!...I keep telling you this...but you have to look into the latest stuff...it is way diff and way cool....

I say you can't do this...compare players from different eras....MJ said he could beat LeBron one on one...and then the King, said he could...well, he could right now...

Am I sensing something here...or are the Demos trying diff flavors?...asking for the bloke who invented the internet, Gore, to join the race...and enlisting the VP Biden, too...are they thinking, that there needs to be options?...just a thought...

The horrific explosion in China...what was it?...I still haven't read what it was all about...

Not sure I have written about this...but the latest drinking devices...Hydro Flask...out of Bend, Orygun...is AMAZING!...I got a water one...put ice in it...and the ice lasts 24 hours...like in 99* heat, even...not kidding...not lying...no fooling...it's real kids...for you down here...look for it on Amazon...

Look at the time...6:30...geez, I am really an early riser...you KIDS, have a great day...and...don't worry at all about my poor knee...

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...

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.....

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
