The Beat Goes On and On and On

Thanks to the infamous duo of my generation, Sonny and Cher...for the blog title today...yes, saw them in concert way back in the 60's at the Salem (Oregon) Armory...as they sang one of the classics...'I Got You Babe'...to this day, one of my all time favorites...

Game 3 in the NBA Finals...talk about the beat going on...as the Warriors won it, and are threatening an unheralded SWEEP!...this was done, as Curry was having a dreadful nite shooting the rock...missed as many 3 balls, as he made just a few days before...I was shouting at the screen, 'QUIT SHOOTING!'...but...Kev Durant was having an awesome game...pretty much carrying the team...with dagger after dagger...ie, a monster 3 pointer, eerily similar to the one he hit in LAST year's final...

But...one must question defensive strategy by the Cavs...who were doubling up on Curry...and, as the game wore on...were successful in taking his points away...but, you MUST make in game adjustments...and turn the attention to the hot hand of Durant...do one of two things...double him, or, put your king on him...mano a mano...appeared to me, the latter was NOT going to happen...as LeBron switched off KD as quickly as he could...hmmm, MJ would have taken him on...Kobe would have done so, too...I reserve my judgment as best ever...

TBS, too bad a station, like theirs, isn't carrying the finals...I would lurve to hear Chas, Kenny, and Shaq dismantle this series...however, it is also the one that televises the Samantha Bee Show, whatever it is called...they should have fired her, after her disgusting 'commentary' on Ivanka...she knew what she was saying...and she was back on last nite, started with an apology...on and on and on...

The wondrous Pads, got the W and the series versus the division leading Atlanta 'Braves'...using a compilation of relievers throughout the game...I was a doubter, and now, I bow down...to the tenacity and idea of it all...Mgr Green, well done, matey...he even thru in a suicide squeeze for good measure...off we go on a 10 game roadie...is there promise?...

Here at the home, we have been bantering about a Nashville trip...coinciding with a concert or two there at the Bridgestone Arena...nothing was a popping...so we went to option numero dos...Vegas...used a free night jobbie at the Mirage, and a Mariah Carey Concert...and voila!...plans are done...and we are booked!!!

Yea, as I mentioned yesterday...that most of my emails were advertisements...so I went thru and blocked many of 'em...ha ha...turns out that 80% of those, were from golf sites and stores...I do have limited likes, apparently...

POTUS...oh my...maybe in jest...while talking to the Canadian Prime Minister...Justin Trudeau...'didn't you guys burn down the White House?'...ah yes, the facts please...it was them Brits...but that doesn't stop our guy...how to make friends in high places...the beat goes on...

Home selling...according to an ( sounds better with a) USA Today article...the fastest selling cities ie, Seattle and 3 Cali ones...the slowest?...NY...price it right and it will sell...

I suppose that if 'they' make Rocky movies over and over...then 'they' can make Legally Blonde ones...over and over...who goes to these, anyway?...the remakes go on and on and on...

My golfing mates are making the trek to Shinnecock Hills for the Open next week...jealous, I am...but, they are not going the way that Tiger is...in his $20 million buck yacht...yes, he needs a win real bad...

The AP ( nobody calls that out much anymore, right?) reports that only two of the Philly Eagles had planned on going to the White house...DJT must have caught wind of that, and put out a blanket rejection for the whole team...ha ha...the beat goes on and on...

The third leg of the Triple Crown is this weekend in Elmont, NY...site of the Belmont...weird, huh...many dreams have been squashed in this race...usually, the track is heavy...the race is loooong....and the fav gets passed...Justify will give it a go...Hdcp Andy says HE will win...there you go, you have the winner...now, go bet it...

This Kate Spade suicide is tragic...suicides always are...the ones left behind...the reasoning...but, the picture of the husband, wearing a mouse mask is the most bizarre thing I have ever seen...what is he thinking?...pictured today in the New York Post...

I can't leave you on that note...so...the CMT Awards were held in Nashville last night...taped it and have not viewed...yet...but MY FAVS won the key awards...Blake, Carrie and LBT...now THIS is good news...

Have a good one, kids...

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...
