The Next 25

Is it just me, or the space between Thanksgiving and the beginning of the Christmas Season, was longer than ever before?...I mean, it is just NOW December...me memory must not be the same as in days before...ha ha...duh...man, which means I have to do the inevitable, pay them damn bills today...later on today, is the Marsha Xmas WORK Party...yes, I have to put on some fancy duds...as does she...listen, it really is a fun, festive time...as long as the Horse doesn't talk politics...

A sad time for the country...the passing of the 41st President...George HW Bush...whose wife died earlier in the year...I guess that's the way it has to be...a full, rich life...for sure...he was a good man and good Prez...he will be missed...

Something I have never accomplished before...yesterday...walked over to Striders...the off track betting site...some say it may be too close to us gamblers...I digress...well, that's not the 'never' thang...it was this...I picked ALL 8 winners of the races at Del Mar...yes, hit the early Pick 3, the early Pick 5, and the late Pick 3...it's a feather in me cap...think about this, kids...try to handicap 5 races before the first one goes...I think it's the 6th time I have hit it...normally, those who hit it, and the Pick 6, too...are conglomerates...groups of people putting lots of cash, and options, in...but, I do it all by me self...it was a good day, kids...

The Pac 12 had their champ game in the SF area last nite...the Dawgs vs Utah...football...and it STUNK!...the game was marred by a number of questionable calls, or lack of calls...too bad, as the winner gets to go to the Rose Bowl...yup, the Huskies of Washington survived...something was up...and yea, I didn't care who won...

The NBA...quit with the comparison of LeBron James and Michael Jordan...stop it...there is none...LeBron doesn't play defense...loafs about, and looks for an occasional block or steal...Michael played EVERY moment, hard...looked into your eye, and matched you...mano a mano...absolutely NO EQUIVALENCE!....

I'm going to tell ya, that the Blazers are a lot better this season...in all phases...but, there are other teams that have picked up their game, too...the Nuggets, for one...it's the bloody 3 ball...which has changed the game so much...everyone shoots it now...in my mind, the game has regressed...

Terrifying news out of Alaska...a 7.2 earthquake...off the shores of Anchorage...about a minute...egads...reminds me of when we first moved down here...we were walking the dog...and the ground shimmied about...45 seconds or so...me no likea...

An observation....with zero facts behind it...Trump has gained a lot of weight...and he seems to be straining when he speaks, er shouts, to whomever he wants them to hear...his oration...

Michael Cohen...after his opening up to the Mueller folks...who says folks anymore?...I digress...is hoping that his 'conversations' will get him a stay from prison...cuz, he ain't getting a pardon from Donny, now...

Try this one on...Nashville is having it's annual Christmas Parade today...the Grand Poopah, er, Grand Marshall, was to be the one and only Kid Rock!...well now, he kind of spoke his mind about thangs, via the Horse blog type...called out the View's Joy Bahar, as a bitch...oops...he gone!...the new GM is...James Shaw, Jr...the Waffle House shooting survivor...

I can't make this stuff up...a Cleveland radio station...WDOK, 102.1 on your radio dial...who plays primarily Christmas music...is pulling all of their 'Baby It's Cold Outside' versions...some ONE called in to complain that it referred to rape in the lyrics...ah, here you go...you tell me...

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...
