Wack Weather
The mountains ranges stretching far north...got their fair share, too...enough to close down the I-5 at the Grapevine, north of LaLa...the artery to the rest of the state...shoved all that traffic, or lots of it...over to the beach roads...the 101...ah, right thru Santa Barbara...where the kids were trekking back home...with the gads of cars, semis', and whatever...trying to get north...took like 12 hours to get home...in a normal 3 1/2 to 4 hour ride...gosh...
The Blazers were making the comeback of comebacks...down 23 to the home team, the Utah Jazz (yea right, Jazz in Salt Lake City?)...closing due to outstanding shooting by their dynamic duo of Lillard and McCollum...unfortunately, they shared the rock with Melo...sorry, but it's true...he clanked it...they lost...but, get this...they are hedging on the high screens!...by design or accident?...ha ha...
A 'bowl' game...Eastern Michigan and Pitt...good lord, why?...teams that are like 6-6...or 7-5...why?...I can't tell ya the name of these multitude of 'bowl' games...anyhoo...the game was on it's last legs...the final minute...and the QB from EMU LOST IT!...I mean he went bonkers...punched one dude, and then punched another...this time the ref got in the way, and down he went...yea, he gone...as well as the game...haven't seen this before...at least they now have a name for it, 'The Punch Bowl'...
For some odd crazy reason there are those out there in the Facebook world, that want to show their devotion to Donny...put their mug on a sign that says Trump 2020...oh my...wait, kids, wait...you have plenty of time to show your allegiance...but now?...too early...unless you must...
I'm being cynical on this...but for the many of youse out there in the pixels land...who watch the miracle work of Dr Phil...and are believers...why doesn't he do the 'what happened after the therapy' shows?...give us proof of his wisdom...
Teerump has raised the age to buy cigarettes to 21...who says he doesn't get things done?...
5 pm the Holiday Bowl out at the Q...USC and Iowa...there are a lot of Trojans roaming the Gaslamp...maybe I can find the dude that tried to duke it out with Snooki...teach him a thing or two from down here...
Following that game, on the tele, is the weird matchup of the entire Air Force and the pass happy Mike Leach's Cougs of WSU...air traffic tower to the ground control...run vs pass...who ya got?...
I am also an extreme skeptic...but, those beautiful helicopter rides over the state of Hawaii...seem to go down more often than they let on....did just that yesterday...I would rather watch the view via the pixels, then go up (down!) in those copters...7 people missing...
Back in the day...it was THE thing to call in to the local radio am station and dedicate a song to someone...and then wait for it to happen...hey, you can still do that on Cousin Brucie's Show on XM...anyhoo, I want to dedicate 'What A Wonderful World' by Louis Armstrong, to all my readers...
