Monday Decaf

Labor Day...rich in traditional lore...as we, the common worker, celebrate the last day off prior to the opening of the schools...ah ha...sure, I don't do the work anymore...but, yes, I do continue to honor the day...and how, you ask?...you were asking, right?...by going to the races...another fine tradition that I had way back when...

And...there were a gazillion folks out there...cuz, they honored the Triple Crown Winner, American Pharaoh, with his presence...and walked him in front of the massive crowd...seriously, he could have been any horse...who would have known?...they should have had him saddled up with a jockey aboard...oh well...

My Pick 5 and Pick 3 were blown up by a $66 winner in the first race...spent the rest of the card, making the deficit up...and I did...barely...reminded me of fair crowds...very crowded...not bet friendly, for sure...

Your girl, Sarah Palin...she got an interview...what?...I will not be kind here...she was asked about serving on Trump's Staff...if he were to get the Prez...oh my...and her infamous wording of that if you live on our country, you should speak American...you know, that's a dialect that is a combo of English and Spanish...I guess...or...Sioux...that would really be American...I digress...

The history of THE DAY...organized by a union...and honored by the then Prez...Grover Cleveland...by the Knights of Labor of New York City...in the grand year of 1887...and now you know the REAL story...do we still have unions?...

Germany and France are taking on the brunt of the immigrants' migration... from mostly Syria...I think...and is at their capacity for doing so...highly commendable...and makes me wonder, what on earth is left over in that displaced country?...you religious zealots, have you no shame?...these are YOUR people...numbers are like 366,000...we have no idea...

Honestly, the Demos are working hard at being under the radar...for some reason, allowing the Repubs to dominate the pixels...what?...I don't get it...as it goes, the Donald is converting doubters...and from the other side...as he appears to be a cross between the two parties...his numbers are soaring and GROWING!...

And furthermore... Bernie is closing the gap...and the once huge margin of favor for Hillary is almost totally...GONE!...watch the results of Iowa and New Hampshire for a real indicator...this is a good season for a blogger...duh...

We are a week away from our annual trip to Maui...it truly is a paradise...and the one negative?...having to leave our dog, Sammi...for two weeks...luckily, she stays with her 2nd family (the Mackles) in the penthouse...she loves the view...and gets her own bedroom...and I think they feed her better...at least, that's what she tells us...we are so lucky...

Did you know that Rick Santorum is running for Prez?...right...how'd that go last time, Ricky?...better than this one...ha ha...I'm not a fan....

Ran into our Dr out at the races yesterday...so glad I did...as she is leaving us for Arizona...gave her a big hug and wished her the best...damn, she is a good one...she's outta here in a week...and now we have to train a new one...

Tonight we have the Sara Evans concert out at Sycuan...padded seats and a tremendous venue...and in the 3rd row..."Suds in the Bucket"...you may remember that one...my fav is "I Could Not Ask For More"...check them out...has nothing to do with the fact that she is a fine looking filly...geez, there I go again, HORSE talk...pardon me...

Big Brother...and the twist has become a reality...I do think the brains of the group is the poker gal...Vanessa...playing a game that most of the rest have no clue...maybe Steve gets it...and would be a great final duo...so says me...

Thanks for reading and please...share...

Enjoy your day off...

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...
