The Royal Wedding

Image
Morning, kids...I missed it...the pixel carried it LIVE!...but, I was in sleep mode...yet, the Royal Wedding went on as planned, anyway...shoot, Oprah was there...the pix of the event appears that there weren't any hitches in it...looked like a success...and now the happy couple can move on to...well, whatever they do...represent the United Kingdom?...something like that...bully for them...how many of youse, got up early in the am, and marveled at all the pomp and circumstance?... Dang if Pippa didn't steal the show of another of them British weddings...she has the audacity to show up preggers!...kids these days...anyway, the new couple has names...the Duke and Duchess of Sussex ...nice ring...better than Crazy Horse?...I was just thinking...what does it take to be a Countess?...like the gal on the Non-Housewives of NYC...how is she a Countess?...she married a Count?...the only one of them I can think of is Dracula... The aftermath of the newest school shooting ...more ...

Scooter Wars

Image
They may NOT be in your area, er city...yet...make that YET ...but, they are probably coming...the hotly debatable ELECTRIC SCOOTERS ...there are 3 major companies that have begun the phenomena...I guess that is what you would call it... LimeBike appears to be the largest of the 3...I have included a US map of where they are today... Good or bad? ...as most, meaning 99% of the renters...are without a helmet...well, I have NEVER seen one with...the cost is $1 to activate the scooter, and 15 cents a minute ...they can go as fast as 20 mph...and MOST riders either use the sidewalks, or meander thru the cars on the roadways...imagine...there is an accident just waiting to happen... So many peops lurve the convenience of the thingers...especially the ability to get from here to there, quickly...at a cheap rate...and it takes but a minute to download the app...ah yes, modern technology and the use of the cell phone ...just try to take them away, now... Well, THAT is exactly wh...

Thursday Tidbits

Right about now you are a wondering why we are so lucky?. ..we have weathered a most provocative Prez , probably of all time...the country appears to be running as usual ... the stock market is as volatile as ever, yet still giving us positive dividends...go figure... Congress has backed off from going ballistic on most everything...that is presented...there is no panic in the streets , that many feared...the promises of redealing, 'the awful trade deals' of the past regime...so far, have not come to fruition...and we have yet to see the grandiose building of what Trump is truly known for... his wall ... However, his wailing thru the source of Twitter ... is monumental ...firing off the cuff remarks made are non-presidential...often, embarrassing...maybe, as some may say, 'it is entertaining!'... so we do, what we can ...sit back every single morning...read my eleven sources of information...marvel at what is said and happening...and watch 'the ____ Show......

Speculation

Let's see, the candy man has just won the Republican Nomination for Prez ...and there is a feeler out, that there may be damaging info on his opponent...Hillary...of course, he is interested...the problem is that the entropy is from a source that comes from Russia ...ah ha...this is in '16, kids...so he sends his crack team of supporters, his kid, his daughter's hubby, and some campaign biggie (Mueller) to meet up with the 'informants' ...where mind you?...in Trump Tower in Manhattan... So what was the outcome? ...well now, that is the question...and the Congressional Peops want to know...is there collusion?...workings with the Russian?...his 'crack team' have dealt with this already...but NOW...the info on the meeting, has been released to the public... let's let the Post, the Times, CNN, and FOX sift through it all...stay tuned... What is supposed to be grandeur of the greatest marriage of this decade... the Royal Wedding in Great Britain...i...

Warriors

Just a wunnerful start to the west finals...as them Golden Staters did a number on the favs and home standers, the Rockets ...team play...won over the individual style of the Beard and his mates...I think Chas, Kenny, and Shaq said it best at half time ...which was tied then...Houston's style frustrated them and would in the end...falter...yup...as KD , Steph, KT, and the enforcer, DG, led a 2nd half near rout...now THIS, is a good thing...yes, I am a believer... With your Supreme Court knocking down the 'sports betting law'...there will be a stampede at the local congressional areas for each state...to write up 'state rules' for allowable sports gambling...a HUGE takeout will do wonders for the money that they can get...wonder what Vegas is thinking right now?...there goes their monopoly... Let's go to 'the Leakgate' ...where the Trump person, let out the McCain blurb...alas, the country wants an 'I'm sorry' from the gal who said it.....

How understanding are you on the move of the USA Embassy to Jerusalem?...a good move?...a questionable one?...well, if you ask the Palestinians there...you would have a definite answer. ..as they are protesting it, in waves... Israel is dealing with that...in a most stern method...the reports are that 37 (now 45) dead and over 900 wounded or injured!...there are just so many ideas and moves that our POTUS can make...without the Congress voting on it...was this move one of them?... So...what is the outcome?...will it subside and no more problems arise?...NO!, not now...as the Palestinians are dedicating this week to their 'Great March of Return' ... their motto to remind themselves of the forced move they had to make...when Israel was formed and took over the land...May 15, 1948 ...there will be continual clashes at the Gaza... The new embassy will be just a part of the issue...which, will take almost 8 years to make?...maybe a decade ...the timing of the change is sig...
