Merry Christmas

Man, we have loads to be thankful for...don't we all?...the kids have escaped what could have been devastating...the Thomas Fire...now ranked as the biggest fire in the state's history...imagine having to start over from the ground up...well, we are celebrating the goodness...

Sometime today I have to pop in the turkey in the oven...is there not a gazillion methods of success for this?...I'm gonna try it at 325* for approximately 3 hours...we only have the two sides of the breast...no legs and wings (and necks and beaks, inside joke) to cook up...I dunno...any hints I should be using?...please share...I am a rookie at this...

Not often I get surprised...I did yesterday...as my son and I went out golfing...for you PNWers you will lurve this...we were on a FROST delay...so went over and hit some balls to pass the time...away...got back to my golf bag...and took out a wedge and a 7 iron to swing...and Cris said, 'hey, hit this one, too'...he had snuck in an M-2 Driver...!!!...best gift and best son EVER!...yes, I do hit it further than me old, mashed up, dilapidated previous 1 wood...ha ha...

So...my college bowl picks...now at 10-4...this is a good thing...but 2 of my losses, are the teams that I write about and follow the most...them Ducks and Aztecs...go figure...I had them as sure bets...which, my good friends, is a an absolute joke in itself...just one game today...Houston and Fresno St...not sure why, but I have the Bulldogs...I think this was an eenie, meenie, miney mo thinger...

The culprit of the 'brooch gate?'...the Princess Michael of Kent...the Queen's cousin...yup, she has since apologized for her lack of good judgment...but, hear me out kids...she has feelings that are real...I'd like to be at their Royal Christmas Party for the confrontation...er, is that coronation?...ah yes, the benefits of the Brits tax dollars...wait, is that pounds?...not sure...

14 straight wins...got that?...the streak that the PDX Blazers have on the LaLa Lakers...really?...continued last eve, even without Dame Lillard...hmmm, go figure...I like the improved play of the Lake Show...but something is still missing...

I bet...if you bet...on the Denver Nuggets...beating the Golden St Warriors in Alameda...last night...you are counting your cash right now...GS was like 3 fer 27 from the 3 ball line...yessiree bob, that'll do ya...

This is smelly...Steve Mnuchin...you know who he is?...the US Treasury Secretary...got a suspicious package sent to his house in Bel Air...wait, I thought he was working in the DC area?...anyway...turned out it was bag of horse manure....from some sorry bloke who called himself, the 'American people'...well, someone was upset about the tax plan that YOUR Congress passed...

Well, that's not in the spirit of the season, now, is it?...let's get passed these types of emotions...find the good things that are out there...

Listen kids...I hope you get the chance to enjoy your family and friends in the Christmas time...share the passion of the season...watch a good time 'Home Alone' flick, or something like that...laugh, and be jolly...listen to some Johnny Mathis stuff...

Merry Christmas...

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...
