Ride Captain Ride

                        '73 men sailed up from the San Francisco Bay...'

You ever think that there really isn't a mystery ship?...that we really don't know what is happening?...that's the way I feel when I look at the Stock Market...at one time yesterday, it was down over 400 points...in about an hour, it was up 300...finished Friday at +330...to say it was a tumultuous week in NYC, is an understatement...

The beauty of an athlete in the zone...make that THE ZONE!...PDX's Damien Lillard was in his last eve...scored 50 points in 3 quarters...and was hitting shots from virtually EVERYWHERE!...3 balls, mid rangers, and dazzling drive in layups...as the Kings were throwing whatever they could at him...listen, kids, this was in Sac Town, too...even more amazing...yes, the Blazers won...easily...

The opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics...you watch?...I just turned it on at the right time...to see the Koreans march in as ONE...sometimes, sports can do magical things...this is an example...the latest is that North Korea has asked the South Koreans to sit down and talk...any step is a good step...

Collusion?...kind of an evil word, huh...just sounds bad...this is where we are, in MLB...as there are many unsigned vets, just waiting to hook onto a ball club...but, the owners aren't budging...too much $ for too long a time?...by that, I mean, the contracts that the players want, are for too many years...hmmm...so the players are banding together themselves...doing their own practices...while the wait continues...spring ball starts up next week...more to come...

Wooah...the new mom...Kylie...who named her baby Stormi...just maybe this is what is ahead for her...as one of her old boyfriends...wants a paternity test..he suggests that HE may indeed be the father...not the one that takes claim...yes, she should be a mother...not...

Agents...pro athletes type...can cause loads of problems (see above for MLB)...well now...there is an issue brewing in the LaLa Lakers camp...with the newly acquired IT...rumor is that he is to come off the bench...ah ha...the agent of IT, says NO!...he will start...wait, he calls who plays where and when?...as I have mentioned before...I doubt that IT finishes the season in LA...

You trying to watch any of the golf T at Pebble Beach?...the blokes play 3 diff courses...and when Lefty and DJ were making moves up the leader board...we didn't see any of it...boo...cuz the cameras were at PB, only...and they were at some other course...boo...well, they are ALL at PB today...I think...

Speaking of golf...I am teeing it up soon...so off I go...have a spectacular Saturday!...

Blues Image, the gang who sang 'Ride Captain Ride', were considered one hit wonders...which perfectly describes me golf...

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...

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
