Peaceful Easy Feeling

Just close your eyes, and take a big deep breath...and let your cares fade away...just for a little while...relax...saunter on over to the kitchen counter, find your favorite coffee mug...and pour a cup of your finest French Roast...add some cream and sugar, if you must...take that sip...the first is always the best...now, settle in and let your mind get involved with the reading of the Horse...

One of the huge advantages of living in the city...is all of the restaurants and bars, so close by...the mountains, the airport, the bay, and the ocean...in particular, this area called San Diego...as we got the itch to go to the beach yesterday...the top down, we cruise over to Mission Beach, a scant 15 minutes away...take out our beach chairs, our Padre towel...earphones and the books...and groove for a couple of hours...as the waves pound on the sand...now THIS, is a peaceful, easy feeling...

The rest of the day...watching the dudes play the Genesis Open in LaLa Land on the pixels...of course, a high percentage of the viewing was dedicated to following Tiger and his other two...Justin Thomas and Rory McIlroy...who somehow weathered the onslaught of Wood's adoring fans...my takeaway...Tiger can't hit it as far as the boys...like 20 yards diff...that has to mess with his mind bad...there is a lot of pride involved...hmmm...and Rory is so close to getting back...and could be the top in the world...again...close...

So...we decided to head on out for some bubbly and have some happy hour goodies...a few blocks away...over at the Headquarters...hit Seasons 52 and Eddie V's...the latter is terrific...humongous bar, and plenty of help...can't say enough good things and we will return often...that good...

Other...

Can't get this outta my head...assuming that we are not going to get any change in our gun laws...at least not until there is a new vote for the Congressionals to get into office...the absurd 'thoughts and prayers' mantra stays alive...but not the people killed...we look at what needs to be done to counter yet...another attack...which, of course, is imminent...

I have come up with this plan...do not find me silly...if you post more security at the gates of events, schools, churches, and wherever many people are gathering...if the security only has a hand gun, or a rifle...it does little good...as the assassin has a rapid fire gun...so, the security must have a rapid fire gun, too...hmmm, when is the last time you flew into Mexico?...isn't that what they have posted everywhere you look at the airport?...military with rapid fire guns...think this, the path of most resistance...kinda demoralizing huh...

And...

I know you are readying yourself for the Big Dance...ah, the college hoop tourney...geez, Thursday a whole host of the top 20 teams got whupped...believe me, kids, it is a shot in the dark...even YOU have a chance of winning the pool...

Is Jamie Foxx real?...somewhere down the line, somebody told him he was famous...he seems more like a Foo, to moi...

Back in to Prez Clinton times, the scandals were near impeachment...nowadays, it is more of a ho hum affair...right?...

Jennifer Aniston is single again...JJ, there you go...now this little tidbit...there is no evidence that she was even married to the bloke...man, them Hollywood cats...

Fox News...host...Laura Ingraham...was a little disturbed at the King, er LeBron James...as he spoke up at the lack of leadership...in his eyes of Prez T...she took offense to his comments, and told him 'to shut up and dribble'...this is acceptable journalism?...you tell me...

Well, I am off to the off track for some pony watching at Striders with Hdcp Andy...just might lay a quid on the Pick 5...at Santa Anita...

Now if I HIT that, I'd have a for sure...Peaceful Easy Feeling...

Oh yea, and do this for me...go up to your File marker, just right of the Safari sign...and 'share' me to one of your contacts...I thank you!...
