Balk Off

And now...I've seen it all...the Padres won the 2nd game of the series with them Giants...in a fashion that I have never, ever...EVER...seen before...let's talk...after a terrific win over MadBum the nite before...there was not a lot of optimism that we could actually win 2 from San Francisco...seeings we hadn't beat them before that one...ha ha....

Curses to them...as we were beating 'em up...cruising, so to speak, up 5-3...and we pull our starter...well, Mgr Green did...the kid...got thru the 5th unscathed...then trotted out our middle reliever dude for the 6th...I should say dud...Carlos Villanueva...who promptly gave up two home runs...get this, numbers 11 and 12...why he is in the majors, I have NO IDEA...gone is the lead...and gone is the momentum...he gets rocked...

The score stays at 5-5...goes into OT...then, their All Star catcher, Buster Posey, does in fact, bust one over the RF fence...we are doomed, so it would seem...not so fast, ye of no faith...it is Sunday, right?...well, it is today...I digress...Dickerson and Norris single to start the bottom of the 10th...our catcher, Derek Norris STEALS 2nd...which is big...well now, this is getting mighty interesting...

Adam Rosales singles to left...we tie the game up...with runners on 1st and 3rd...hmmm...and this happened...as the SF closer, Santiago Casilla, is about to throw a pitch to our SS Alexei Rameriz...his cleat gets stuck in the ground...and falls off the mound!...BALK!...game is over...what on earth?...whatever...another win...geez, the series win...

The Open...it's almost like a match play T now between Lefty and Stenson...right?...they have distanced themselves from the rest of the field...and took turns being in the driver's seat yesterday...geez, the way they started today was atypical of the match...now Lefty is on top...back and forth they go...

Gots to feel that Mickelson has the edge...as he has many majors under his belt...Henrik is still looking for numero uno...and these blokes are both not young, by golf standards...HS is 39 and PM is like 60...well, mid 40's or so...turn on the pixels and you can watch this...in reality, it is a toss up...pick'em...

I spent a goodly portion of 3+ hours watching a special on DB Cooper...remember this dude?...he was the guy that hijacked a plane...then ransomed off the $ in the process....then jumped from the airliner...wooah...I had no idea of the process involved...

Cool, was the interview of the co-pilot and the stewardess involved in the event...can we call it that?...by involved, I mean that they were saving the plane from being blown up...by assisting the perpetrator...there, that's better...turns out...that the guy that these investigators came up with...was not the guy that the stewardess remembered...took 3+ hours of my time to find this out...boo, History Channel...

Hey...the Repubs start up their convention tomorrow...in Ohio...is there enough police in that state to control what this country deems important...to protest whatever?...guess that's the only way the politicians actually feel the pulse of the public...or what, the Demos want the Repubs to ponder over...don't worry, the feelings will be matched in Philly later on...when the Demos do theirs...

The attempted Turkey Coup...the numbers that have been involved and rounded up are at 6,000 people...imagine what is going to happen...appears that their surviving government is trying to point the finger at the US, too....stay out of that area, kids...

You know, the original Ghost Busters film was awful...can you stomach a do over?...it has to be painful to watch...

What is this Pokemon Go craze all about?...geez, I don't want to know...does it affect me?...then no, I could care less...

Time for some grub...have a great week...

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...
