No More Excuses

The terror...of it all...imagine...you just get off your flight...on your way to the much needed cruise ship getaway...you are waiting for your luggage to come out on the conveyor belt...and boom boom boom...repeat...boom boom boom...an assassin, who was on YOUR flight, opens up and shoots at all of you...

13 shot in all...five are dead...and the coward, throws his semi-automatic hand gun on the ground...and lays down...waiting to be arrested...sound terrifying to you?...it could have been you or me in that situation...this guy actually had his weapon, 'legally', stored in his suitcase...for the flight...and went into the bathroom...took it out and shot all these people...

Happened in Ft Lauderdale. Florida...the airport there, yesterday...could have been anywhere...the people ran...EVERYWHERE...to get away...as we watched from the usual suspect of immediate news channels...CNN, FOX, and MSNBC...seemed to go on for at least half the day...

In the aftermath, the police and the FBI kept us informed as to what's what...kind of...yes, the FBI was aware of the coward...and on and on...here is my take...we MUST make our country safer...whatever it takes...NO MORE EXCUSES!...I think that the new regime, just might make a huge difference...I am hoping...

And all the while, through this unbelievable tragedy, Anderson Cooper, is talking about Wikileaks...give me a break...let's address home land security...NOW!...

Other much less Horse sense...

Much less...

The Warriors blew a huge lead (24 points) and lost in OT to them Grizzlies...at home in Alameda...a stunned crowd...as the GS guys took a whole gaggle of bad shots in the 4th...had some inner turmoil...and showed us...that they are indeed NOT the best NBA team...now...hmmm...

Did get to see the Greek dude that plays for the Milwaukee Bucks...good, but not yet elite...can't even come close to spelling his name...unfortunately for him, he has Jason Kidd as his coach...no bueno...

Jordan Spieth, in the midst of a terrific round of golf at Kapalua...sailing along...hit a bummer on the 17th par 5 hole...actually took a snowman (8)...and settled back into the pack...hmmm...just doesn't have the elite Tiger prowess...

The NFL kicks off their playoffs today...the Lions at Seattle my game of choice...hmmm...closer than the pundits think?...me, too...as the Hawks O not so good...figure this to be a close one...but, shoot, I never pick these games right...never, ever bet on the NFL...

ABC ran a special on the religion (?) Scientology...still say, you make these 'churches' have to pay taxes and you'd see some of these go by the way side...maybe I'm too cynical...

Not sure how the people survive in China with all that smog...BTW, the levels of it (smog) not nearly as bad in LA as once was...but, China...oh my...

Hmmm....all these are fluff in comparison to the tragedy in Florida...

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...
