Monday Fully Caffeinated

Hey kids, it's the week of weeks...right?...when I was a teaching/coaching it was some time off...and time for the fam...and doing what the normal people did...get out and shop...and make sure the gifts were just right...did not have time prior...I'd give the team a week off, too...it was time to be with the ones you love...

Stress...mostly self imposed, it  was my take down...don't get me wrong here... I loved what I did...I stressed as much in the class room as the basketball floor...really...you always had to be right...so I came in highly prepared...hey all teachers do this...it just was taking a toll on me...that's all...my outlet was the sports...and get this, TV sitcoms...well, and an occasional Jim Beam...

"Hootchie Mama"...yup, I was a Seinfeld nut...BTW, I had no idea what that phrase was or meant...is was just funny...now, I know...ha ha...it was said a couple of times...Frank C used it...and I swear Kramer did, too...anyway...Cosmo was my soul survivor...I would belly laugh when he would show up...and talk and do his slap stick schtick...

I even had a tee shirt with his pix on it...you know, the framed one..."the Kramer"...you do know, he was always giving advice...to whomever...and he was NEVER RIGHT!...I would cackle...still do...and to this day, if I need a mental getaway, I'll watch some Seinfeld...

Not so funny was the tragedy in Vegas...where a lady went on a rampage yesterday...drove her car into crowds of people...killing one and injuring like 37 others...they were just walking the strip...the LV police say it was not a "terrorist act"...it was a terror like act...they caught the killer a few blocks away...and get this, she had a 3 year old in her car...OMG!...stay tuned for this one...

One of the shows I watch on a regular basis is at 4 o'clock in the afternoon...Family Feud...hosted by Steve Harvey...who I also think is funnier than heck...that's the setup...he just got through hosting the Miss Universe Pageant...you know, the show, that was taken away from the Donald last year...oh my...anyway, Steve made the biggest gaffe one can...he announced the wrong winner...geez...cleared it up...but oh my...

Reminded me of back in my high school days...when they would announce the winners of the rally squad over the intercom system...and yup, shortly after, I was in the hallway outside of the main office...and the gals were jumping up and down...not so fast...they announced the wrong name of one of 'em...I thought how cruel...you know, I have never ever talked about this before...hmmm...

The NFL...it was the last day for the Chargers to play a game in San Diego yesterday...and they actually played well and won...kind of serene...as some of the players took it hard...ie, the All Star, Weddle...who after most people left the Q, just laid down in the middle of the field and took it all in...for the last time...I want to say much worse things than this...but screw the ownership of the Bolts...greedy bastards...

And...I have been talking a lot about the lack of quality officiating in the league...no where worse than in the NY Giants/Carolina Panther game...where the oft mentioned best wideout Odell Beckham...got away with punching his opponent...and then hit him another time with his helmet...and nary a flag was thrown...either time...he should have been tossed...and then fined and suspended...it was brutal and an embarrassment to the league...make that, another one...

Whew...the Repubs just sighed a big one...the candy man, Lindsey Graham, announced he is dropping out of the race...remember, he was the dude who wanted W back...oh me oh my....c'mon Carly, follow suit...

Wow!...GMA's weather gal....worked up til last Friday...and gave birth on Sunday!...Ginger Zee...hey, I never knew her name...congrats...and well, wow!...

Well now...my leg issue is gone...I'm feeling dang good...and I am thinking that the golf world is about to get the Horse back into it...

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...
