A Clang Fest

Clang, bang, boom...went the sound of the hoops...as the basketball caromed off the rim...in one of the poorer played and shot...Playoff games you'd see...yup...the Blazers and the Clip Joint...let me tell you about it...

First there were the pundits...the Golden St Warriors star guard, and league MVP...Steph Curry is out of action for at least 2 weeks...bum knee...and the "experts" had them losing this season to the Clippers...finally, they said...hmmm...wait a minute Charlie...LA is embroiled in a donnybrook up in PDX...NOT a pushover...however, to the sports goons, it is...er, was...

The Trailblazers played with passion...albeit with little luck on their shooting and their plays...but...it was better than their "anointed" opponent, the Clip Joint...who were a bit worse...looked like it would go down to the last minute...kind of like an old time NBA game...

Then...pop!...LA's star PG, CP III, goes down with a broken hand...got caught in a jersey...their star PF, Blake Griffin, hobbles around with a hammy...and...Portland takes full advantage and mops the floor...wins by 14...BOOM!...the pundits are reeling...

The series is now tied 2-2...heads back south...however...Chris Paul is done...Griffin is a maybe...and don't look now...but the team that could, and I mean, could maybe, beat the Warriors...is the TrailBlazers...hmmm...now THAT is a long shot...

Have to admit, the audacity of the sports writers may have fueled the PDX team...would have me...maybe too much...still...the stage is set...hang on to your Rip City gear, kids...you may be wearing them longer than anybody thought you would...

Well...it is Super Tuesday 4 today...and I am heading out to the links...see ya...

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...
