Where Are We?

'What if God was one of us?'...you remember the lyrics to a song, that has this line in it?...well now, we went to her concert last eve...and all along the way, we had a journey of epic proportions...it was at 'The Belly Up' in Solana Beach...a venue that has it's good and it's bad...we'll get there...to save our soul, and, er to arrive without a search for a parking spot...and to have a brewskie or two...too...and not face the slight chance of a DUI...

We are in a cold down here in SoCal...and the Lyft ride was a bit uncomfortable, as the driver had it like real hot...when we pulled up, the line was already established...as long...the doors open up at 7...the show at 8...and here is the rub...there are seats available for the GA tix...but, as we were warned...one has to get there at SIX to get the seats...alas, NO WAY were we going to wait that long...

So, as we got into the building, the seats were all taken...we were destined to be standing for the show...so be it...nevertheless, we walked around looking for a spot to squeeze into...went right up front...and VOILA!, found a couple of gals who would let us sit there...ah, FRONT ROW!...as they were waiting for their men to arrive....

And then, the fireworks erupted...just like us, there were some peops that were a searching a spot to land...it was a SOLD OUT SHOW...a couple of gals asked if they could it at the table next to us...and the present inhabitant told them NO...a woman...and continued on, 'I don't want a couple of dikes sitting at our table'...what?...the lady at OUR table got incensed, 'how can you talk to ANYONE like that?'...reacting and speaking to the accuser, I guess that's what one calls it...the accuser then responded 'stay out of this and you are fat!'...Where are we?...

Security was called...and the situation was as uncomfortable as I have ever seen...for something like this...a concert for some good vibes...well, at that moment, there were none of them...the perpetrator was given a stern warning...and we all sat there in stunned silence...with the gals at THAT table...wowser...

Fortunately, the show started up...shortly after 8...and there was no warm up act...thank goodness...to chill up the negative...and bring out the positive...the singer was Joan Osborne...and her gig was to sing songs of Bob Dylan...which she intertwined with her own...hmmm, all that I had not known...all the while, we awaited for her 'One Of Us' hit song from the 70's?...around there...a moment that she warned the crowd...that her version of Dylan's best song, we would either hate it or love it...

'Rainy Day Women #12 & 35'...that's it...and you were right, Joan, I HATED IT!...the song is a beaut just as he did it...not as she did it...slowed it down and pretty much made it almost unrecognizable...well, now, we gave ourselves about 20 more minutes of it all...and we bolted...hungry...

Got a great Lyft ride back...promptly, and went to Little Italy...landed at a brand new restaurant...in a totally revamped area of India St...'Farmer's Table'...terrific food and this was like at 10 pm...BTW, the restaurant is humongous in sq ft....yea, the nite ended well...

This am...I first noticed the Futures...crap...a DOWN day...brace yourself...

Then turned on the pixels to CNN for a little Congressional hearing and query of acting AG McMillan...oh my, he is a piece of work...belligerent as hell...and makes you wonder what he is hiding...duh...we know...we just got to get it out of him....

It's an off track day with the HDCPer Andy...going to be a great one...

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...
