Morning, kids...don't we all get caught up in this bloody language, once in a while?...'figuratively speaking' is one of those phrases that can have loads of meaning to it...like, with my figure, er, shape, I talketh to you...probably not...try, exhorting imaginative thoughts thru a myriad of jumbled up words...a little closer, I imagine...maybe, the proper way to deliver a message, but I didn't use the correct verbiage....whatever...it is something that writers use, whenever they are at a loss of proof...
'Loose lips, sinks ships'...a phrase used in the second world war by our allies...be careful what you say, to whom you are saying it to, and better yet, don't talk to anyone you don't know...ah ha...relevance?...'loose lips, and she quits'...hmmm, she got fired...the close confidant to Trump...his personal assistant...Madeleine Westerhout...who has been right by his side throughout his regime...well, not RIGHT by his side...was at a dinner and spoke 'trash' about the royal family...ha ha...this is a bit sketchy, but it got to some press people...wait a minute, Horse...not royal, but the present inhabitants of the White House...they got wind of it, and she is OUT...geez, how old is she anyway?...The oncoming storm, Denali, oops, good lawdy, Horse, Dorian!!!!...it is named...(my first mistake of the year...)...you do know that they call them by the first initial to signify what number this is, for the season, right?...its the 4th one...I may have just insulted your intelligence...sorry...but, it is on a beeline for our Floridian Condo in Cocoa Beach...the guesstimates are that it could be a category 4 hurricane!...like 140+ mph winds...we watched a broadcast out of there, last night...where the reporter was right in front of our building...and get this, at Alan Shepard Park...which is the name of my pappy...I digress...set to hit maybe Sunday nite?...around then...and yea...one more thing...from the Orlando airport (MCO, why?) via the highway to Cocoa Beach is called the 'beeline'...I can't make this stuff up...
I watch with some interest the UCLA football team...as their coach is Chip Kelly...who was part of the resurrection of the UO pigskin prowess...he added some extreme speed to the makeup of the Ducks...excitement...then left to try the NFL, in an aborted attempt...settled back in the collegiate ranks down here is LaLa Land...and curiously, the swagger and speed from his coaching is...gone...weird...they played at Cincinnati last eve...and were quite frankly...awful...the line was porous...and the Bruins are now 0-1...
The nowadays Ducks...have been part of a transformation to strength...beefed up dudes in the line...the speed of the team, has gone the way of the real power house teams of the SEC...the theory is to maul the opponent in the pits...gotta go with their thoughts...we will see the results on Saturday nite in Arlington...taking on Auburn...the line has been steady at 3 1/2 which still bewilders moi...got a call from my Duck expert last nite, and he seems to think...he really does...that one of the better blokes we have, just may be injured...and the Vegas boyz know this, but the public doesn't...hmmm, that in itself is mighty shady, if true...my confidant is Snooki, who you must trust...well...
Funny how stories get out there...one had to do with the La Lakers...back in the Kobe/Shaq days...that the two were constantly feuding...there were rumors of that, then...but no reporter would stick his or her neck out and put it in print, or talk about it on the pixels...well, now there are no holds barred...some dude let it out that he too had a confidant...that said that there was a sign that the team used, to freeze the ball from Kobe...as the bloke would shoot the rock too much...ha ha ha...love it...
The lil worman, and I did walk over to the off track...had some lunch (tasty) and some cool beverages...as it is hot and muggy here in the Q...not like 115* or anything like that...but, hot for us...and bet on Del Mar...stayed for 3 races...and the ponies were not nice to the Horse...listen, kids...I take great pride in reading the racing form...2 of the 3 races, my prime pick was in the hunt for the first part of their race...and then faded to DEAD LAST!...last...OMG...it was a sign to get outta there...which I did...there are days like that...
The Futures are up...again...have no clue why...so, if you are in the stock mood today, go ahead and make some cash...if the pattern I see, holds up...on the other hand, another store going to go bye bye...will declare bankruptcy...Forever 21...the hits just keep right on a coming...
One of my least favorite people in the world...well, the US...is Donny, Jr...who tries in vain to mimic his daddy...talk trash in his Tweets...you know the drill...likes to do the 'bigger than ever' crowds that want to listen to him speak...well now...got his comeuppance in a 'big draw' in Pikeville, Kentucky....stumping for the Repub Guv Matt Bevin, who is seeking reelection there...thanks, but not thanks, Donny Jr...7,000 seat stadium, and maybe, just maybe 200 showed up....ha ha ha ha....Odd to not see any PGA on the pixels...I guess they really are through for the year...wait, for the season...they have that bloody wraparound thang...well, you could watch the ladies in Portland, Oregon...they are still at it...
Hey, it's a Friday...find some fun things to do...maybe a nice swim...some bubbly...a rib eye...garlic mashed taters...and a strawberry cheesecake, figuratively speaking...
