Devastation

The after effects of the largest fire in the history of the state of California...barren land...and the dreaded worry of massive inches of RAIN!..which causes mudslides...my son and I have talked about it for weeks...well, ever since the Thomas Fire was mostly contained...Mother Nature did her thing again...exactly, what we feared!...

Horrific mudslides...from all those burnt out areas...and the land just gushed toward the Pacific...oh so close to his practice...Montecito, in particular, has shown the most destruction...it is the headline item on most pixel news shows...plus, the details of many people stranded...couldn't get out in time...scary sh---...

Pictured here, is the road that Dr Cris has his practice...oh my...

15 are known to have lost their lives...many more are unaccounted for...Cris keeps reminding me and themselves...of how many times they have looked in that area for a home to buy...he is fortunate to be where their condo homesite is, safely tucked within...I believe the storm is winding down...and the cleanup begins...let's only hope the death total is finite and not infinite...

Other...

We have had our fair share of the rains...listen kids, the people around here have no idea how to drive in it...sounds similar to the snow thing, huh...but, the oil from the highways seep up, and make them so slick...yet, the crazies keep right on a truckin' at their normal speeds...egads...

The coronation of the 'Bama Coach, Nick Saban, as the grandest of all collegiate coaches ever...has begun...after his 6th title...maybe deserved...but, hey, it's all about recruiting...I mean he had a legitimate first string QB on his bench...BENCH!...and had not started one game...and this...humongous cheers went out from the entire D-1 coaches...that Nick may be heading to Manhattan to coach them Giants...hmmm, I guess they play in Jersey...whatever...

Is this not a broken record?...I have yet to find the book...'Fire and Fury'...read (ha ha) somewhere that there were 29,000 copies sold already...not and ONE....gonna try today...I'm hearing that the story is OK, but the quotes in it are...priceless...well, worth $30 bucks...

Rumors abound...that the new, er, new version of American Idol...now on ABC...rescued from FOX...will not show the auditions, that for better words, were awful...ah come on...really?...are the producers the same?...wondering out loud...

I'm bewildered...there were the gala after parties for the Golden Globes in LaLa Land...noting the stars that were basking about...and the KFam was listed...wait, they are stars now?...give us all a break...

ESPN covered, both visually and in words, the Ball Bros in Lithuania...their hoop game with 17 yr olds...say what you want, but this LaVar is milking every single drop out he can....and somehow, ESPN is the dairy...

South Korea and North Korea are talking?...what?...kudos are going out to Prez T for enabling this...if true...Olympics are part of the reason?...I dunno...any step is a good one...for these two...

Well now, the weather is turning back...to normal...70*s by the weekend...YEA!...

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...
