Back At Work

This media world just happens to live in the NEGATIVE...the top 10 items I have read for the day...in my eleven sources...all negative...let's start with the top story for the nation the last 3 days...the SHUT DOWN...

Well, it is now back OPEN...albeit, it is for a couple of weeks...as Congress works on a more substantial compromise...not sure why it is so hard to do...but it is...yet none of my sources have this as their lead headline...not one of them...but, if the day got to 4...it would have been...apparently...

The Oscars...the ultimate pretty person award if you are an actor...listed this year's nominees...alas, the headline was not that, but that James Franco did not get one...they are blaming it on his sex stuff...there you go...something about 'Water' got like 13 noms...of course, we have seen none of the flicks...zero...nada...zilch...

A huge earthquake hit Alaska in the early am...like 7.9 or so...and gave the tsunami warning up and down the west coast...like at 4 am...and since has been lifted...all done while we were asleep...mother nature at work...

Neil Diamond...has now been diagnosed with Parkinson's...so sad...he has gained recent fame for his song 'Sweet Caroline'...that the MLB's Boston Red Sox featured during their hey days...I really like 'Cracklin' Rosie'...it reminds me of the time when I just graduated from college...and was playing pool at 'the bar'...'The Museum'...a place that soon after got shot up...one of the first reported mass shootings...really...so tragic...

The NBA...it's the time of the way too long season, that teams start trying to fix their problems...ha ha...the Bucks gave their HC Jason Kidd, the heave ho...yea, that'll work...the Cavs, did the closed door team meeting...yea, they NEVER work...air the grievances...the reported whipping boy, Oregon's own, Kevin Love...oh my...yea, he's 6'10' playing center...can't jump...his fault...

Gotta stay with the Cavs a bit longer...there has been a virus in their system for a couple of years...their G, Kyrie Irving, wanted out...and got traded to the Celts...in came another problem...Isiah Thomas...short, hogs the ball, can't defend, and worse of all, has an attitude...one word to describe 'em...implode...

My Tennessee Titans hired their new HC...Mike Vrabel...isn't there some vowels missing in his name?...I digress...made a statement to the press...that ruffled some feathers...called the NCAA as the 'farm system' for the NFL...ie, the two best at it...'Bama's Nick Saban and the Buckeye's Urban Meyer...I suppose he is right...but, if you look at the rosters of the teams in the league...they are from everywhere in the Nation, ie, the D-3 teams...hmmm...

A tid bit...that is included in the sides of many web sites...one on AOL caught me eye...'Stars Who Can't Stand Oprah'...there you go...click on that...and it will show you the names...with countless amounts of ads...that one has to sift through...name the names...not too sure YOU want to be on that list...

We watched a show I bought through iTunes...'Carrie Underwood's Storybook Tour'...she is...AMAZING!...if you can get it, it is worth every dime...er, dollar...filmed in Madison Sq Garden...NYC...hmmm, odd, but we've never been there...you can thank me later...

The talk around town....well, in the golfing part of it...is that Tiger E. Woods is playing in the Farmer's out at Torrey Pines this week...a place that he has won 8 times...egads...eight?...we are going on Sunday (maybe Saturday)...with them Gahrs...they are true golf nuts...well, they are true nuts...period...great peops...let's hope there is one Woods in contention...

Finally, is it that hard to get the paper delivered on time?....or, at all?...we have had issues repeatedly with the Trib...is it the carrier or the paper company?...man, they ask a lot of cash for it...any more of this...and we may be like most of the country...paperless...it is aggravating...

Can't we all just get along?...

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...
