Culmination

Hey, kids...as we dig out of our frigid temp down here in SoCal...the mood is improving...egads, the use of the heat mode on our Nest is near a constant...have you switched over to the auto thermostat replacement yet?...can be altered by your 'smart' phone, or by YOUR VOICE...thru 'Alexa'...well, look into it...man, I could never figure out the old one we had...this is sooo simple...

My blog title today of 'Culmination'...refers to some thangs that are about to come due...some court cases, the Oscar stuff, the Mueller Report...to name a bunch...as they play out in the next week or so...reportedly....

The first...is the calamity in court in NY, where the one and only...Roger Stone makes an appearance...this, after him publishing a picture of his judge, with her pix in crosshairs...he MUST think he is above the law...and, figures he is going to get a PARDON from his good friend, the Boss...thus, he can say or do whatever he wants...stay tuned to this, as it's an indicator...of things to come...

Michael Cohen is to make an appearance on the Congressional floor...the date I saw was Feb 27...this is prior to his stint in prison, I believe that starts in May...now, both of these blokes are about to get incarcerated because of Trump, or their affiliation with him....

Reports that the Mueller Report has finished...and it now will go to the new AG Barr...who will review it and give a condensed version to Congress...maybe...this is to be next week...but WILL HE?...of course, my great fear is that we won't see the Report...but, the way things LEAK out of the government, there shall be disclosure...fingers crossed...

All the while, Trump will be in Vietnam meeting with the North Korean dictator...as the breaking things are happening in Congress...coincidence?...

We are going to a way cool party at the new Theater Box on 5th...where the Oscars are going to be shown via the big screen...that's on Sunday...really, Jimmy Crack Corn who wins, but, the site is cool and sounds like fun...count the Horse in...

Speaking of awards, the country music has a whole gaggle of 'em...the latest is the ACM's...can't keep up with all they have...it's OK, cuz, the plethora of sangers sang...the country field problem?...its all on the radio...as most of the tunes played, are from the male side of things...and the ladies are ticked, deservedly so...

Have you been following the Smollett case?...where, he wanted to be noticed, allegedly...and had himself be 'attacked'...and now?...he has been arrested...just sad...

The highly anticipated matchup in guys hoops...North Carolina at Duke...number 8 versus number 1...since 1976, they are virtually tied in wins...who's who were there...the avg price for the resale of the tix, were at more than $2500 per...wowser...Prez O was there...anyhoo...the 'star' of the season, Zion Williamson, went down with a blown out shoe, did the splits, and then wrenched his knee...was out and the Tar Heels took advantage and whupped the Blue Devils...I dunno, but I think it would have been a NC win regardless...they were primed...

Then, there are the peops who say that Nike should take a big hit on this...I'm sure they never played in Chuck Taylors Converse shoes...where you ALWAYS turned your ankle in...and, then, the pundits who say that Zion should not play another second in college...give me a break...play while you can...

With all the euphoria of the SD Pads signing Manny Machado...the Padre Store brought out Machado Jerseys...they were selling like 'pancakes'...ah, wait a minute, dudes...he won't officially sign until tomorrow...so, the store took them off the floor...and stored them until then...ha ha...so, if you bought one prior to that, you are...aw fuggit about it...

The Futures this morning?...slightly UP...however, the Market is down right now...maybe I am off...

Your SMUT time...to follow up yesterdays...I know YOU find this intriguing...KK has split from TT, and the gal that he hooked up with, Kylies BFF, has moved out of KyK's home...back to her mommy's home...dang, all this during All Star weekend...where TT was not involved...ah, with the hoops stuff...but the other?...allegedly....

Are you a 'The View' watcher?...I confess I have in the past...ha ha...well now, a conspiracy has emerged...Whoopi has been missing...MIA...and the rumor?...is that she is in hiding, preparing for her next gig...the surprise HOST of the Oscars!...might it be true?....

There you go, just another Tequila Morning...oops, make that 'Tequila Sunrise'...now if we just had the sun...we have the Hornitos...
