Blizzard

BLIZZARD!

Not here, silly...but all across the North East part of the USA...and with the hub of the pixel news coming from NYC, it will be splattered all over our screen...not complaining...it will be pretty to see...much more difficult to be in...so far from way down here in San Diego, it is a visual treasure...

Kind of funny...when I looked up "blizzard", one of my finds was this ice cream concoction from Dairy Queen...yea, right...I used to lurve them...can't say I have had one since moving down here...now, over 10 years...what?...really?...

The book I read was indeed "Gray Mountain"...thanks Ms Sue...and it was an eyeopener...about the strip mining of coal in the Appalachian Mts...yes, I went online and checked out the topic...very real and very now...seems like Congress wants to turn their eyes away from the issue...a tragedy...the book, another fast page turner...and if you haven't, a must read...

The NBA announced it's starters for the All-Star Game...the fans...they do the selecting...of course, always an issue...and the one glaring dude included?...Kobe Bryant...named for his 18th time...in his farewell season...c'mon...he was going to be named anyway...but as a starter?...this year he has been far from a star...and the fans took away a real spot for a deserving player...and...the way many of these blokes have their contracts written up, may have cost them mucho dinero...ha ha...they make too much anyway...

Don't look now...but the leaders in the Prez races for both parties in Iowa AND New Hampshire?...the Donald and Bernie...hmmm, Horse has been telling you this for some time...it's early...but the stage seems to be set, right?...my oh my, I'm sure that gets the hair straight off your head and bolting up...you get the idea...it's already been a long ride...my, this is fun...

Shoot, and now that Sarah has endorsed Trump, how can YOU not?...hey, I am showing humor here...BTW, is her voice annoying, or is it just me?...

Another find...like I told you about the reruns of Johnny Carson...last night they had Elizabeth Taylor on as guest...she just had turned 60...he, BTW, was a fantastic interviewer...her only time ever on the show...and it was a gem...to see legendary people in their prime...just unbelievable...check out when you have it showing...5 stars...

Music...since the tragic death of Glenn Frey, people are re-discovering his and the Eagle's tunes...harmonic wonders...too bad we don't embrace these people when they are living, more often...JLo is killing it in Vegas...that's the word...you know, she will give it her all...we have never seen her in concert...hmmm, a Vegas trip has to be put in the schedule...and...finally...a new singer that has some oompah...check her out...Morgan Myles...go to iTunes...trust Horse...

This, whatever I have, is going away...yeah...unfortunately, M still has it...so, in a way, it lives on...boo...I get to hit the links tomorrow...man, I am going to be extra bad, I suppose...

I have told you my struggles with Blue Apron...they got back to me yesterday, and refunded my money for this week's box of food...very impressive...BTW, it's just not our thing...I need not go back into this...

My search is on for another read...I go thru times like this...will read voraciously for a week or two...

Make this a great day...

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...

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...
