Superfluous

There are no better words...to describe the show that Little Big Town put on last eve at the Del Mar Fair...than SUPERFLUOUS!...not only, starting very near the announced 'show time'...but NO opening acts...it was all them...of course, it may have something to do with we were in the 10TH ROW!...this pix I have is taken in the latter part of it all...

They kept knocking their hits out...amazing us all...like 20+ of them...started the night with Elton John's 'Rocket Man', acapella...and is was on...the favs?...'Loving You', 'Day Drinking', 'Wichita Lineman', 'Boondocks', and 'Girl Crush'...but really, there were so many others that were grrreeeaattt...the harmonies were fantastic...

The fair itself was slammed...typical stuff, but lots of it...the rides, the food (duh), the booths of
endless things to buy, and the PEOPLE...everywhere...this is the pix of the infamous 'Chicken Charlies', who is known to fry up anything...getting there and back from downtown, was a bit sketchy...Uber was the answer, but getting to the site was not easy...but we made it...

I will end this bit with...one of the ladies in LBT can really sang...Karen Fairchild...she is absolutely awesome...if you haven't yet, check them out on iTunes...

Other...

The ever loving Padres did it again...after losing their first game in a set, won the 2nd...in the last 6 now, that has been the pattern...even breaking the curse in Hotlanta...Mgr Green get a bit feisty with the home plate ump and got tossed...ya gotta do that every once in a while...the ump?...the dreaded Country Joe West, easily the most despised one in MLB...so full of himself, well, he is big...ha ha...

FOX is doing the Open at Shinnecock...of course, they followed the key groups that had Tiger and Lefty in 'em...Tiger missed the cut, and Lefty made it...however, the guy in charge is Dustin Johnson...it's his to lose...as he is playing beautifully on a very difficult track...many of us, are in amazement how quickly that Jordan Spieth has lost his touch around the green...as he choked like a dog on the 18th hole, needing a par to make it...chunk chipped, and missed badly on his putt chance...he gone...

Not lost in their broadcast...was an inadvertent 'pick up' of a couple of blokes...like fans in the stands...talking brutally honest sexual thangs...which FOX has apologized for...dammit Pops and Gary, keep it DOWN!...

POTUS wants 'his people' to stand up like what the North Koreans do at the behalf of Kim Jong Un...apparently, his idol in the field...there are so many ways to go on this...

Kim K said something very scary...'never say never to her not running for political office'...listen, I can't make this stuff up...you KNOW she would get votes...

The campaign chair of Trump, for like 140 days or so...you get fired if you are there longer...Paul Manafort...got jailed...'witness tampering'...wooah...he is going confidently...really...as he expects to get a PARDON from POTUS...did I say this before?...I can't make this stuff up...

ICE at work...the number...1,995 of the children that have been separated from their parents near the Mexican border...are you proud to be an American?...

OK, calm down Horse...let's talk hoops...the SDSU star...Kawhi Leonard...injured most of last season, for the San Antone Spurs...wants out of there...exit stage left...to LaLa, is his desire...ah ha, rumors are rampant...that the Lake Show will sign him and LEBRON...who also, wants to relocate in SoCal...perfect, let THEM play with the Lonzo...which of them can shoot it from 3 land?...well, certainly not Lavar's kid...

Finally...try LBT's 'Better Man'...there are just too many choices, kids...

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...

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.....

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...
