The Plot Thickens

Nothing like the smell of hotcakes in the morning...the beauty of living where we do...as the trendy breakfast spot in the Gaslamp District, Richard Walker's Pancake House, is on the street level of the home...er, the condo...in reality, we are in the Marina District...a few blocks away from the fabled Gaslamp....so, just for generality sake, I use the GQ...easier for folks to find and recognize...and yes, oh by the way, the food is awesome and a must do while in the city...

There are so many times that I am surprised by whom actually read me blog...a lady friend came up to moi last eve, and said that she does...not every time, but it dependeth on the title I give for the day....hmmm, interesting...I need to be more creative, I reckon...gets a bit hard to do, when I write most every day...but, I will give it the old post collegiate try...

The plot thickens...rumor mill from within the White House...why do the leaks appear so very often, anyway?...this trust thing, is harder and harder to control it appears...that Trump is nearly going ballistic...and the brain trust, wait, there is one?...has great fear he is going to go off and say and Tweet things that may just damn himself...naw, not this guy...

The special envoy to the Ukraine, Trumps' own guy, Kurt Volker, has resigned his position...ah, what?...does that mean, he has gone rogue?....geez, that term went into being common place when way back when Sarah Palin was the VP candy woman for McCain...'she went rogue'...ha ha...true, tho....back to the point...does this mean that Volker, when subpoenaed to Congress will spill his guts?...oops, talk?...or does it mean nothing?....toe the line of most of the Trump people and read a prepared statement that 'he will divulge nada'....

The weekend in DC is calm...as those in the power are meeting up to schedule who needs to sit on the Congressional floor this next week....will those who may be called...might they ignore the subpoena?...as per request of Trump...can they do that?...doesn't seem right...there must be a penalty...it's all very confusing to me...

But, relax friends...we have the college football to take up our time...drats, my Aztecs and Ducks have byes this weekend...so, I turn elsewhere for interest...Stanford (fresh off a UO loss) at the Beavs...4 1/2 point fav (now 3!)...hmmm....chance for OSU?...Rutgers at Michigan...where a loss by the Wolverines, spells D-O-O-M for HC Harbaugh....USC at the Dawgs...what's the weather to be?...Ohio St at Nebraska...slight interest...are the Buckeyes really that good?...I fear yes...WSU at Utah...which could be the donnybrook of the night...

Oh, and for you who are still following the mighty Padres...they got whupped in Zona...2 games to go, and the season is finis...90 losses again...egads...and for the final time...the team is switching their colors back to...brown...the mighty Padres...

Hey, that hotcake thing sounds like a plan...

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...

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.....

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...
