Memorial Day

This is the day in the USA, where there is time given to honor those who gave their lives for the freedom of our country...Memorial Day...and to also honor, the Veterans who survived, too...I'm not sure the better name shouldn't be Military Day...it is what it is...however, in the 21 sources I read, each and every morning, there were just a scant few that made this the headline...shame...

What took most of the headlines, was the trip of Trump to Japan...his day of golf is THAT important?...a misguided comment that he made was in the fore front...that he wasn't bothered that much by the launching of short ranged missiles by North Korea, in direct disregard to what his aides had told him...take a look at the map, and see how close Japan is to that country...and, of course, he followed that up, with his agreement of Kim Jun Un about calling Joe Biden, 'low IQ'...

An item of interest that may just affect you...depends on where you live...but the Trump restrictions on the Chinese Telephone Tech Co, Huawei...has some major implications in the lower populated places in the USA...what?...it seems that many of the phone carriers, used the Huawei technology to establish the base for the cell phones...that will have to be replaced...ah, yea, you may lose service for awhile...

At the Colonial, the name of the T has changed...depending on the sponsor who will pay...PGA...lots of $...the winner was the kid that had the lead after the 3rd round...Kevin Na...the analysts did NOT pick him to hold on...he won breezing...I did not realize how short that track is...many par 4 holes under 400 yards...for Pros, a drive and a wedge...by winning, he also got a vintage Challenger car...which he gave to his caddie...cool...

Right on cue, was my assessment of what happens when a team scores 19 runs...one was scored the next day...as the mighty Padres got ripped by a 10-1 score in Toronto...couple that with the scratch of the sheriff...we were not going to win with Erlin and Perdomo, taking his place...well, off to NYC...today at 10...another test...

As we near our Cosmo trip...the thoughts are 'what have we forgotten?'...is the weather gonna be cold?...rainy?...sunny?...food, is such a gamble...how much to take...they do have stores in many of the sites...we have 4 different ones going...have not figured how many on the return...sounds a bit harrowing?...yes, to me, too...

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...

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
