CRAZY HORSE

Hey, it's time to get away! ...push back all them hard hours doing whatever you do and go where the sun is...and head on over to SPRING BREAK! ...for us, it's the desert...and meet up with the other blokes who are tired of the rain, wind, snow, and other evil parts of the weather. ..put on our shorts, lather up the whitish skin with some Coppertone 30, find a lounger close to the pool...and live the life we think we deserve.... drink, eat, swim, golf, talk...repeat...repeat...repeat... Of course, most of our buds are no longer working...like them retired types now ...but we can't get the time out of our system... in our minds, we are still young, in shape, and full of vim and vigor. ..what the hell, let's PARTY! ... I think back when we used to load up the VW Camper Van ...mostly with beer and chips...a map, cuz we had no clue where and what SoCal was all about...and bolted just as soon as we could on Friday. ..got as far as the body would let...pull off at a ro...

When life is getting you down...you can always go ... Downtown ...there you go...the hint for the day...get your duds on...get in your rig, or put your tennies on...head out to the coffee shop for a fresh, dark cup of Joe...and spend your time in... Downtown ...you still have one, right?...diff from the Mall, the decaying part of the country...but...down to Main St, or Broadway, or whatever the street is that is...the hub of Downtown ...go thru the tiny shops that were and are the back bone to the city structures...have some lunch at a quaint little deli... sounds fun, huh...do it... Speaking of Petula Clark ...I was, wasn't I?...she was the one who had this monster hit... 'Downtown' ...it was even a subject of a Seinfeld episode. ..where George and Jerry got emerged in the meaning of the lyrics...anyway...a few years back, I bought this vinyl that had Pet's Greatest Hits ...a 2 disc set...a rare find...and she was a doozy... 'Don't Sleep in the Subway' .....

Morning kids...have a late start as I had, gulp, another golf lesson at 8 am...there is promise...really... forgive me for being tardy with my blog...I'll make it up to you somehow... Tops on my list is the concern I have over the state of our country...wooah...I mean the Capitol and the White House...it's time that we beef up our security ...at whatever the cost is...too many repeated attempts at breaking the barrier down ...we are but one crazy away from doing some major damage ...and, it makes us look weak...which we are not...but it gives the knot heads ideas... attack the issue NOW!. ..before it's too late ... I'm tired of the likes of the late show host, CBS's foo, Stephen Colbert ...when a 'comedian' turns to a serious speaking bloke...it doesn't work... he was hired to be funny, not obnoxious ...right?...is it too late to censure him?...I dunno, maybe you feel differently...that is OK... Dancing With The Stars. ..maybe this show has run...

How you liking the daylight savings thinger?...well now, if one has an early tee time...we could just be swinging in the dark ...maybe, just maybe, we might delay our times a bit... This will be just a meet and greet and get on with the show session ...as I have an early one, so...for better or worse...FORE!...somewhere, it's never straight... The UO gals season came to an abrupt halt ...as they met the queen of the gals hoops teams ... UConn ...who were marvelous...as the Horse has said often... there is no better team out there ...and proved it again against the Lady Ducks...terrific run by Oregon...still... The Cavs. ..are in a spiraling end to their regular season ...hmmm...if you listened to 'em, you'd think ho hum...when the real part of the journey actually starts, they will respond...does it work like that?...another loss last night in Texas...brutal one, in fact... as Leonard handled James, easily ... It took almost the entire day of workings...as the...

Are you all set for a powerful week? ...busy times ahead...and we are blessed with the sun to guide us...about time...have loads of golf, here and in the desert ...ah, someone has to do it...might as well be moi... The stage is set for the semis in guys hoops... Oregon vs North Carolina and... Gonzaga vs South Carolina (?)...really... one could make a case for any one of them 4. ..I am just going with me heart...I do have one...and pull for the west coasters ...haven't seen the Vegas odds yet... Breaking...the odds... UNC giving 4 1/2 (Horse said 4 or 5!) and the Zags giving 6 1/2...hmmm Pro Hoops ... PDX keeps playing better...of course, they got a W handed them on a silver platter last night in LaLa Land... the Lake Show has done the tank job to try to get the top pick in the draft...they are just awful with very little effort given...oh my... Golden St narrowly beat the Memphis Grizzles...in Alameda...geez, another lazy play day of Curry ...he doesn't get...

It's taken the Oregon Ducks 78 years...let me repeat myself, 78 seasons of play to get back to the Final 4 in hoops...shoot, did they even have such a thing back then?...whatever, an absolute marvelous ride thru the T, they have had...and no bigger upset, was last night's...victory over the highly favored Kansas Jayhawks... STUNNING! ... Kansas was fresh off of a monster game over Purdue ...which can give a team too much over-confidence...taking on an Oregon squad that most pundits kind of liked...but would not endorse...some did, one being TBS's Kenny Smith ...but most, not...and from the get go, the Ducks were for real ...and dominated...especially the big, Jordan Bell ... who controlled the inside ... Here is the reason ...that none of the experts talked about before, during, or after the game ...for the win... Oregon gave Kansas just ONE SHOT! ...and gobbled up the miss... led by the aforementioned Bell, and the rest of the crew ...their domination was the fact...
