Ecliptical Timeline

Ah, I'm not sure there is a word, 'ecliptical'...I know there is an elliptical...that's the way the auto correct wants to go...but, I'm fine with my NEW word...so when does this phenomena begin?...of course, it depends on where you are...like your area code...in the west, 9 am starts it all up...let's hope there is (are?) no clouds...the actual full eclipse lasts 2 minutes and 43 seconds...what?...but the partial lasts about an hour...hey, one gets the same thrill in Maui, when the sun goes down...I have taken some breathtaking shots of that...it's like get ready...cause you may miss it....

Just how can we have a Naval ship (the USS John McCain, of all named) get rammed?...and lose 10 Midshipmen in the process...the waters around Singapore must have more crafts afloat than need be...or, was it more than an accident?...this is just early talk...more info to be released today...

Is this a true story that the USA Today released?...that our Secret Service agents, will not get paid cuz of the elaborate trips that the Prez and his family have been taking...really?...how did they get the story?...I dunno, something smells fishy to moi...

USA!....the American gals won the Solheim Cup...defeating the Euros...capped it off with the points needed to get the trophy, by winning enough of the singles events...after building up a substantial margin in the 2 person play...the stars?...Cristie Kerr, Paula Creamer, and well, almost all of them played well...Danielle Kang was super as a rookie...there you go...

Our local pixel station still plays the Chargers games...pooh...and the telecast is flavored with the taste of fake chocolate...glossing over the inadequacies of what the new Bolt's team has to offer...the tiny stadium has a max of 27 grand...the numbers last night were the same as the week before...however, if you turned into the broadcast after half time, that is exactly the numbers there...half the stadium...listed at 21,000...in reality?...probably 10-12...in the NFL!...and in this case, means 'not for long'...bitter?...you betcha...

Just an observation...back a bit, the mighty Pads were closing in on a pennant winning season...really!...we had half season tix ...and then the management did the unthinkable...figuring that we were playing too many rookies, they brought in some vets to finish off the season...we did a nose dive and lost out on the final game of the season...guess what the Bums are doing?...eerily similar thing...propping up AGonzo...buying an aging OF from the Yanks...and sitting or dropping down the rooks who have got 'em in the mix...the Horse is sensing something...

This is the week that I do get out to Del Mar...finally...especially since there is a Pick 6 carryover...hmmm, I have never hit that bet...and I am destined to do so...anyone interested?...

Oops, she did it again...your girl Britney...figuring it was time to show off her....vocal chords for real...not lip-sync...did a cover of a Bonnie Rait song...oh yea, you gots to hear it...this was in Vegas...let there be no doubt as to her abilities...who is bringing up Milli Vanilli???...

Hey, here is the pix of the new, well, 2022 VW Microbus...I have already put my deposit in...

On a serious note...the PGA Tour had it's final tune up for their season ending tournament...it's like boring to moi...too much for what it is...granted, it's a lot of dough to the participants...but really?...some guys are already perched in the upper echelon and DON"T have to play in all of these...it is a  4 tourney playoff...hey, these dudes make a LOT of money...

Hey, it's cloudy here in the southland....questioning the partial view that we are supposed to have...of the eclipse...my song?...'Blinded By The Light' by Manfred Mann's Earth Band...

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...
