National Softee Ice Cream Day

Dairy Queen, here we come...wait...I dunno if we have them down here in SoCal...drat it...yesiree Bob, it is National Softee Ice Cream Day...hmmm...I think one can still get them at Micky D's...but, fuggit about 'em at the buffet restaurants...I don't think I have had one in 10 years...maybe more...and Horse, does lurve them...just betting you, like at 2-1 odds, that you will have one today...you can thank me...

The follow up to the absurd story that the Lochte kid and his compatriots drummed up in Rio...lies...the one bloke, James...paid Brazil $11 grand to not prosecute...and got outta there...the two who were taken from the plane, apparently recounted their story...and this time...flew home...the mastermind of the fable, has yet to be found here in the States...give us all a break...

The gals USA Oly hoop team....won again and are in the finals...for the gold...thank you NBC...I couldn't find it anywhere in your telecast...the star of the team, former UCONN player (aren't most of them?), Diana Taurasi, suggested that they ran around naked, and they would then get coverage...hey...no...tell that to NBC...we want to see you play hoops...BTW, the guys play Spain in the semis today...somewhere on the pixels...have NO idea where...

Is it "too late baby?"...Carole King...for the Donald to take back some of his most bizarre statements?...he said yesterday, that he wish he could...lawdy, how much time and space does he need?...er, airtime?...have to be an hour long show...here you go...put it together...tape it...and let NBC broadcast it...nobody would ever see it...he would have it off his chest...and the race could go on...

Just a few seasons back...the face of the Del Mar Racing Season was the gal jockey Chantel Sutherland...she was having a great year...and then went back east...to ride...actually Canada...Woodbine...well, she is back...has been struggling to get good mounts...got herself a much needed win in the 6th yesterday...and Horse had her in the Exacta...paid like $50 something...a good day for moi...went over to Striders rather than to the track...dang it, if they didn't charge the $15 to enter...they give it back to you in drinks and food...er drinks, ha ha...Bud Lights...tall cans...I digress...

It is hot hot hot on the west coast...up an down it...and dry...fires are a worry and a reality...one just north of here...and one north of Santa Barbara...one south of Sacramento...that's weird...all places that my son and his new wife own property...look at the map, and you'd think all of Cali was ablaze...we've been lucky so far, lacking the Santa Ana winds...

To be fair and impartial...doesn't somebody else have that slogan?...Hillary has decided to unleash her...campaign ads...bring it on!...please, say what you are going to do, not what he isn't...please...

The battle for the bottom...basement...cellar...the worst...the end...OK, you get my drift...the Dbacks are here at Petco Park...whoever can win the series, escapes the dreaded doldrums of "last place"...it's a 4 game series...I figure they will split 'em and be tied...anyway...the Pads survived game one...9-8...a brutally played game...featuring a load of misplays and head shaking moments...too many to go into...really...quick, name any ONE of our starting pitchers names...right...thank you, Trader AJ...

Hungry...time for some grub...and we have to get a packing...

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...
