Lefty

Something crazy good happening over in Scotland...in The Open...Phil Mickelson...alias LEFTY...who is actually a righty...is weathering the rain and the rest of the field...10 under at the midpoint...as the 2nd half of the blokes are just now teeing it up...he should be at or near the lead...which, my good friends, is a pleasant surprise...not to him, I suppose...as he is the extreme optimist...

On the other hand...horrific scene in Nice, France...allegedly another terrorist move...using a truck on a mile long killing spree...the numbers are yet again staggering...84 dead...lord, there are too many cowards on this earth...that find a way to kill...what can we do?...

And this piece of a nugget...70 miles north of Seattle...in Skaggit County...a teriyaki restaurant owner has asked the police there...to QUIT eating at his establishment...what?...the customers don't like them being there, the cops were told...hmmm...refusing of service?...of course, the web net is a blaze...there are sides to this story...kind of scary...how do you feel about it?...it won't take you long to find the article, most anywhere...and just read the comments by the people...think we don't have a divided nation?...

I'm one of the confused ones on this...the illustrious Padre GM, AJ Preller, has traded another one of our All Stars...Drew Pomeranz...for a prospect...to the Bosox...hmmmm, my son thinks it's a good move...me, not so much...as we have a severely depleted starting pitching core...Drew was our salvation...he gone...I guess the theory is that this season is lost...so let's stockpile players in the farm system for a couple (or more) years and back on the future...when we turn the corner and can really compete with the Bums and the Giants...my thinking is that the AJ will be long gone...before these "prospects" mature...

We went back to eat at our local Italian Restaurant...on 5th...we were told it was mighty tasty there, again...the last time was not good...OK, kids...the food was exemplary...our waiter said that they hired their old chef back into their kitchen...yup, it was right on good...Chianti's...you must try it...BTW, had a wonderful bottle of Pinot Noir...from Oregon's Dundee Region....

Opening Day...out at Del Mar...handicapper Andy and I are gonna figure out them nags over at Striders...our local off track...speaking of that, at the track...they are anticipating a crowd of over 40,000...you heard that right...horse racing is big in SoCal...you KNOW I'm a Pick 5 guy...the opening race is a doozy...so is the 2nd and the 3rd...egads, I just may pick 'em race by race...

All signs point to the Trump VP as Guv Mike Pence of Indiana...he was a late bloomer in the releases of the Donald's Camp...as you know, I had Newt pegged as the guy...I'm OK with this...he didn't ask me though...you maybe saw this...that one of the speakers at the Repub Convention is gonna be Ivanka...one namer, like Cher (wrong party)...Barbra (oops, wrong party, too)...Madonna ( who cares)...hey, you get my drift...

To be fair and impartial...the Demos and their candy woman, Hillary, are blazing the trail...picking just the right VP selection themselves...want Horse's pick?...mine would be Bernie...ain't no way she will pick him...no way...can she name Slick Willy?...oops, there is a rule against former Prez peops serving again...I'm confused...

Some might say I'm always confused...

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...
