Game 7

You want your high drama in sports?...you got it...as the visitors WON again!...the Nats beat the Astros in Texas...and Verlander...wooah be to that young man...got dinged twice in the 5th...ah, just sets up a grand day for beisbol, don't you think?...that be this evening...I know I should Google this, but has a series ever gone on, with the visiting teams winning EVERY game?...

Not so often in the game ANYMORE is the manager/umpire brouhaha...where the captain gets heated about a 'blown' call...come running out of the dugout and screams in the ump's face...eventually, to get thrown out of the game...kicking dirt, shouting obscenities, spit comes out gnarly during the rampage...well now...it happened last night...even though 'instant replay' has pretty much shelved the spectacle...

And it happened over the rule that bewilders me...always has...that a runner going down the 1st base line...has to veer off the direct line...run to the right of it, in foul territory...even though the base is situated on the line...has never made sense to moi...and if YOU do...and the ball either hits you, or causes the ball to be missed by the 1st baseman...YOU are OUT!...happened last eve...and it took like 5 minutes for the replay center to come up with their decision...gross...

So, the Nats were the victim of the crazy rule...the manager got heated AFTER the inning was over...did the aforementioned shenanigans...got tossed...and the game went on...

Back in DC, where the Nat fans are going crazy with delight...there are different modes of euphoria in the House of Reps...as the latest guy being interrogated by the committee about the 'quid pro quo' in the tele call by TeeRump to the Ukraine Prez...the 'perfect' call, so he said...ah, Donny's words...the call was not so...

Alexander Vindman, the Ukraine expert and IN THE ROOM, with TeeRump...as the call was made...said yesterday that key elements were left OUT of the 'transcript' that Donny released to the World...sure...as I have said over and over...you can't believe a word that he says...and I am NOT talking Vindman...

The vote in the House of Reps is maƱana....wake up Repubs, HE is using you, not representing YOU!....

As I so brazenly quipped at the conclusion of my blog yesterday...I mistakenly used the wrong word...got called out by Madam Butterfly...and now, will scrutinize me production a bit more ...you see, the bloody English language has some of these homonyms that creep up a bit, while one talks and writes...heals and heels...soul and sole...write and right...there and their...hear and here...him and hymn...knew and new...well now, the list is long and laboratory....you do get me drift, and the Horse is not without mistakes...ah, just this usage of '...' drives some people krazee....

Moving on to the Getty fire...as many of the LaLa people have had to temporarily relocate...find a hotel to stay at...one being the Lake Show's own LeBron James...a gesture that he made, was to send a 'taco truck' to the workers, who are trying to put the fires out...class act...have not heard the condition of the fires this am...

We watched a great flick on Netflix...'Echo in the Valley'...a journey into the past of the 60's singers and groups out of Laurel Canyon in LA...led by Bob Dylan's son, Jakob...who had a group of singers and musicians, that heard of the past...would interview living members of the Mamas and The Papas, Buffalo Springfield, the Byrds, The Beach Boys, John Sebastian...the list goes on and on...and then, his new group would cover the songs...was way rad...check it out...

Jakob sings better than his daddy...ha ha...

Mass shooting at a Long Beach Halloween Party last eve...3 dead and 9 wounded...the killer on the run...my God, this has become ho hum...NOOOO!...deal with this, Congress...it is persistent and rampant...

Surely this can't be right...Kanye is getting back $68 million bucks in a tax refund...just has to be one of them 'fake news' thangs...right?...

For game 7...the pitchers are for the Nat's...Max Scherzer...for the Astros...Zach Greinke...Max vs Zach...with the bullpens a waiting their call...I figure often...

Finally, on our bike ride yesterday on the bay...Mission Bay...we saw this which is the feeding and training of a dolphin, that patrols the Navy base at Coronado...way coo...

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...
