A Day At The Races

Morning, kids...it's been hustle and a bustle for the past couple of days...had an emergency dental trip up to Santa Barbara, to see our dentist...well, the kids...and have some work done...ah hem, this time on Marsh....I have to tell you...he is the best...if you are in need, look him up...no bias, just fact...pictured here is Cris's first dental exam...on my mother...

The travel from here to there is not easy...whenever you drive thru LA it is a mess...so many cars...the 405 is brutal, the 5 even worse...took us 5 1/2 hours to return...toss in the 5 o'clock traffic just north of SD...and there you have it...total frustration...


Today...is one of leisure...as we head on out to Del Mar...for a day at the races...can't believe it's my first time out this season...it's the one with Marsh's Work Force...at the Turf Club...you know the drill...ladies in dresses with pompous hats...dudes with sport coats, long pants, closed toed shoes, and gregarious caps to get by the stuffy checkers in the elevators...Pick 5 is calling me name...her boss takes care of us, and it's a celebration in itself...really a lot of fun...

The west coast has had it's share of heat and humidity...with that comes the air turbulence...like T storms...a rare occurrence down here...go east of us...just like 40 minutes and they are a popping and shooting...and flash flooding...

I saw an article that came across the Twitter wire...it is a wire, right?...that the Faith Hill and what's his name Tour is on hold for a bit...she has lost her voice...told ya...they are soothing hers, until they get to the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville...

Speaking of there...Carrie Underwood's hubby...the captain of the Nashville Predators...the hockey team that came in 2nd...Mike Fisher...announced his retirement...37...and retired...hmmm...keep your wife a working, dude...works for moi...

A lull in the storm of negativity...as most of my eleven sources have had some trouble ripping apart something...they wouldn't or couldn't possibly post something positive...so they mull about the Prez and his policy on people getting across the border...old news...oh yea...and the thrilling comment 'allegedly' made by Prez T, that the White House is a dump...does he sleep there?...

Hey, back in Salem, Orygun...that's right...back home...one of the blokes I did radio with...Jerry Gilman...announced his retirement...class guy...did the commentary on high school football and basketball games forever...a shout out to him and trusts he enjoy his next phase...

I refuse to comment on any of the ludicrous comparison comments that the Ball kid's dad makes...about his son or himself...a foo...or worse...

Eleven days in July...Scaramuchi...his book is titled this...'My Rise and Fall in the Trump White House'...has but one chapter...and it's a short one, to boot...

Let's see...gots to clean up around here...as them Snookies invade tomorrow...buy some humongous quantities of bourbon and now, get this, tequila...download the past performance of the hosses running today from the Daily Racing Form...do some studying...gad zooks, I better get going...

Your song for the day?...how about 'You're No Good' by Linda Ronstadt...

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...
