THE Hippie Fest

Listen dudes, it was a far out time...the Hippie Fest...surprisingly, not a packed house out at Humphreys...so what they did, was not set up so many chairs...really, it was cool...the background to most of the first set was Rick Derringer...?...he was one of the McCoys...what?...'Hang On Sloopy'...amongst other songs he was part of...the Badfinger bloke did his thang...and then wandered about the 'party' having one or two brewskis the rest of the night...mingling with the the hippie dudes...the surprise of the nite, was Mitch Ryder...minus his Detroit Wheels...well, he had one Wheel with him...beat throat cancer a couple of years back...and sounded GREAT!...

Of course, the event was bolstered by the ultimate hippie and Dead Head groupie, Bill Walton...he was 2 rows up from us (again) and man, is he a tall bloke!...wonderful pix here with our very own flower child, Marsh...he kind of drove the crowd...when he stands up and wows the performers, so do the rest of the clan...really....

The final act was a real band...Vanilla Fudge...listen, we have our guys, our age...who can still belt out the music...far out, man...good time...hmmm, one thing missing?...no tee shirts sold...imagine how many tye dye ones they could have moved...missed opp...

Other...

The bewildering Pads brought up one of their prospects to pitch in Milwaukee...got shelled...gave up 3 dingers in the first...as we lost 8-4...A+ for trying something new...let's give the youngins a chance...see if they can stick in the bigs...

For you Tiger fans...he started miserably in the PGA Major...bogey, double bogey...let's hope he rebounds...so many peops want him to succeed...ie my son, who will be there tomorrow to see the T...don't drop out, Tiger...hang in there...shoot, I often start bogey, double bogey and I finish the round...ha ha...well, I usually start like that...

The NFL starts their pre-season games tonight...can you believe that there are blokes who actually bet on these?...imagine...nope, can't...

A frightening story in the USA Today...that a number of businesses throughout the USA may start LAYING OFF workers, as a by-product of Trump's Tariff War with China...you still a believer?...

The NCAA...is it just me, or have they lost ALL control of their clients...collegiate sports...?...they are dabbling into the one and done issue for potential NBA kids...to skip any college...they are going to make a decision by 2022...what?...ho hum, yawn...

Omarosa...yes, her...has a book coming out on the 14th...a tell all...guess who she is telling all about?...Donny...and the hint is that she may have secretly 'taped' her conversations with him...another nice hire, DJT...ha ha ha...

Finally, after so many years...Las Vegas has a new greeting sign...what you think?

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...
