Mother's Day

-
Be thankful for the mothers out there...all of you...as I am of mine...as I have stated many times, you can never do enough for them...while they are in the here and now...please please please...if yours is still around, be a good child...which, by the way, you ALWAYS will be...a child in HER eyes...her child...pictured here, is mine...

I was just a thinking...from the good old days of the teevee...what were the best moms?...here's a list with no particular order as the best...
1.  Harriett of the Ozzie and Harriett Show...remember her?...
2.  Aunt Bee...not sure if she was Andy's, but sure acted like a mom...
3.  Donna Reed...are you getting a pattern here?...
4.  June Cleaver...you know, Beaver's mother...
5.  Estelle Costanza...George's mother...
6.  Mrs. Seinfeld...did she have a front name?...
7.  Julia...Diane Carroll...single mom....
8.  Edith Bunker...of 'All in the Family' fame...
9.  Lucy of 'I Love Lucy'...classic comedic relief...
10.  Peggy Bundy of 'Married with Children'...ah yea...
11.  Carmela Soprano of the HBO superseries...reminds me of someone...
12.  Claire Huxtable...of 'The Cosby Show'...
There are many others, but those are the ones I watched and got a kick out of...maybe made an impact...something...

Other...

The mighty Pads pulled out a W over at Petco...took them 13 innings to do so, but TG for ANY win...in the same breath, the team finally let Chase Headley go...time to go with the youth of the organization...some thing...any thing...but, get some pitching here...c'mon GM Preller, do YOUR job...

What terrific rounds for both Jordan Spieth and Tiger Woods!  each at 65's...and moved into contention...well, up the leader board...as it looks like NO ONE can catch Webb Simpson...who leads by a whopping 7 strokes!...I think I heard this right...Commentator Johnny Miller said that NO PGA player had ever given up a last day 7 stroke lead...really?...turn out the lights...

The NBA semis start today...the east is first...as the Cavs invade Boston...unless I am way off base, expect LeBron and his crew to light up them Celts...and the west is mañana...more of a series?...my pick is the Rockets, but my heart is in San Francisco....well, Alameda...let the games BEGIN!...

Sarah Huckabee...what?...yes, a real name...unleashed on HER staff about a leak...she has a staff?...I wouldn't want to be on her bad side...just a guess...

We have had some heated conversations about the Presidency...lately...but this is food for the fodder...the Demos have released the number...of at least 25 possible candy men and women who are hitting the campaign trail...NOW...to see if there is an impact out there to their vision...I call this interesting...

Tonight...American Idol...reached out to Carrie...for guidance of the final 5...and each of 'em are singing a song of hers and one other...the guys sanging a girl song?...I digress...happens...the one that I am hinting...is the gal who is doing 'I Told You So'...should be a ticket on to the next level...

Did I leave out Hillary Clinton?...she is a famous teevee mom, right?...

Have a special day out there, all you Mothers!

The trump criminal trial is now set to go on Monday ...try as he may, he couldn't get it delayed...how many tries?...4?...it's a go, Bozo.. .and now, it is Perry Mason time ...does he have Perry?...I see he is without the lady attorney he had in his last court case ... a thought for us all...seems like whenever we are watching the 'famous people' in court, the prosecution has a tougher job ahead of them ...we shall see...and the item of 'odor' has emerged again...what the heck?... Bizarre outside the courthouse...a guy set himself on fire...he died ...the last time I can recall something like this... was in South Vietnam, with the Buddhist Monks doing the same, in the Vietnam War...egads ....we just don't value life enough... Congress...it's another odd session...with House Speaker Johnson (Mr Peepers) going against MAGA, and trying to get $ for Ukraine and Israel ...yes, MTG is not only fighting that, but attempting to get him fired from his job...why o...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......
