99...Way Cool

Image
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 ...

No Cigar

Hey hey...I was dang close...hit the first 3...and that was it...too many favs...and the Pick 5 passed me by...and did get two Pick 3's...but little $...as the top hosses ran the way they should...and it was one of them days... The table at Cafe del Sol ...well, it was in the Turf Club area...which means it costs $4 more to get there...boo...the food?...the same as the other...boo...however, the Coaster is a big yes...and makes the trip so much better...the car trip back from Del Mar can be and usually is, brutal... The Demos ...Bernie has pulled ahead of Hillary?...hmmm...in New Hampshire...a trend...as he draws thousands when he meets with the peops...she needs to get in the arenas...she had a huge lead 8 years back, when Barack picked up momentum...deja vu...maybe?... Pre-season NFL ...here tonight in SD...as the Carson Bolts host the Cowboys...in years past, this was a big deal...there may be protests and all...as the league is trying to justify moving the Chargers......

Untucked

My golf course... Sycuan ...is like many others...that call themselves "Semi-Private"...whatever that means...at least, we can wear our shirts untucked ...unlike the stuffy private clubs...it's way cheaper to pay as a member, than as a guest...totally depends on what the initial down payment is...anyway...my point today is...the track has now cut off many of the sprinkler heads...er, water to many parts of the land... Which makes for very dry and tougher play ...one could be in the fairway, and have a brownish, near dirt lie...OK, by me...as this complies with the ongoing state of emergency for the lack of agua in this state...and if that is what it takes, to keep a golf club running, I'm all for it... Yesterday, the starter blurted out...on the tee next, is " Members Lintvedt, Shepard, Morgan, and enjoy...your round..." ...so when I went to check in to him...I thought I was a comic...and told him I don't care to play with Joy...thinking he said, ...

Monday Decaf

Image
Another day in the hood...and there are grumblings all over it...as the listless Pads lost the 6th straight...got swept...AT HOME...versus the Phillies...made average pitchers look like Sandy Koufax...and bumbled around like a very bad beisbol team ...which is exactly what our group is...we make errors that astound me....that no other MLB franchises do...I don't get it... Listened to your guy get a telephone interview with ABC... the Donald with George S...could never spell his last name...and the bullying prophet continues his ways...does not consider what he said about the Fox gal moderator as demeaning...good luck all you Repubs...you have quite a ride ahead of you...think this will be the last guffaw?...it started with calling Sen John McCain as not a war hero...oh my...then the Mexican thing...the list will grow...and...apparently, will do so as his numbers do too...all yours... Think there isn't high tension in Mizzou right now?...Ferguson again...the racial li...

Fun Day Sunday

Finally back in print ...wait, I don't print this...but, I am writing again...it's Sunday the 9th...of August ...there you go...and I have lots to complain...er, tell you about... The Debates ...first Fox had the JV event ...where there was like NO ONE there...just like a jayvee game...you know, the parents and family...and that's it...the gal Farino , appeared to make a case to move up to the varsity...I have to say...you could pretty much put a blanket over most all of them, as they have the same views...it's all in the delivery... The VAHSATEE ...Horse senses that Marco Rubio , Sen from Florida...made up the most ground...has a great way with words... Jeb was better than what the pundits said... the Donald continued his assault on everyone and everything...including the gal moderator...and his flippant tone about her, his raised more eyebrows... Which may be his downfall... his bullying and treatment of women ...haven't seen the latest numbers....should ...
