The Rest of the Story

Who to believe?...that is the first question...as we, the USA, meander about the airwaves...trying to sift through the abundance of clues that permeate the scene...assassination and the aftermath...the reasoning?...justified?...based on true evidence?...or...another sinister plot by the leader, in his awkward way of showing force...his...?...what we were told, the common man and woman...is that there was evidence that the Iranian General was targeting 4 embassies...to blow them up, I surmise...yet, this am, the Secretary of Defense...ah, ours...was being questioned on Face The Nation...and a different story came about...Mark Esper...his words, "didn't see specific evidence showing threat to 4 US Embassies..."...let's go back...Trump and his closest cronies, er, his cabinet...said otherwise...it was part of the reasoning for the killing...so, who are we to believe?...right...it scare you?...yea, me too...

Questions number 2 and 3...probably another example as why Trump won't let anyone in his cabinet testify in the impending Impeachment Trial...whenever it comes about...you tell me, is this obstruction of justice?...or, is it the protection of executive privilege?...

Yes, so we wait...for the rest of the story...might I say, the rest of the stories...cuz they change daily...

I brought up the extreme taxation of the Brits...but, they do get universal health, right?...as well as paying for their pride and joy...the Queen and her family...hey, we have lots of payment, too...well, some of us pay...another story for another time....but, we are seeing our tax bucks go for Trump and his entourage to play golf...at least one out of 5 days...I kid you not...and we have no universal health...and no Queen...some story that one is...

How about those NFL games yesterday!...must talk about the mighty Titans, to start with...humongous upset over the highly favored Ravens...the power games prevailed and even though, my Mariota was on the bench, I still supported them...terrific win...and the 49ers...took care of all the doubters and the Vikings...like the first game I mentioned, the line play was the difference...yup, I loved both of them...

Today's games have the Texans at the Chiefs, and the Seahawks at the Packers (in the snow?)...with my Carnac wisdom full throttle, I see KC and GB as the win dogs of the day...but, per usual, do NOT bet on my pix...only a foo would...I don't even...I ain't no foo...

What is being published out of Iran...with the counter demonstrations and all...the uncovering of the stories of the people aboard the downed plane...such a horrific end to their young lives...tragic...and the Iranian people rising up in mass to show their feelings...that is, if what we are getting is the truth...and believe me kids, I don't know what to believe...do you?...

Seems like I am going round and round this am...going here...going there...my mind keeps doing that...

Hoops...the elite is not that anymore...there are too many teams that, on a given day, can beat anyone else...College guys...for clarity....but, one thing is certain...the SDSU Aztecs keep rolling on, undefeated!...17-0...whupped Boise St last eve, 83-65...

NBA...two that popped out...the LaLa Lakers mauled the Thunder in OKC....without LeBron and Davis!...oh my...and the Blazers lost in PDX (again), this time to the much better Bucks...still...there was a time that coming to Portland was a big advantage for the PNW squad...not any more...

We were listening to the 50's or 60's XM yesterday on the way home from the store...on the radio was this bloke, Engelbert Humperdinck...his real name?...Arnold Dorsey...ah what?...who was struggling about in England in the 60's...his manager suggested the new name, borrowed from the 19th century composer of Hansel and Gretel...there you go...'Release Me'...

Finally, from my 'I can't make this stuff up' category...'star' Gwyneth Paltrow...says she came up with a candle that smells like....ah, 'her female genitalia'...it sold out in hours...

Nice Horse, what IS that aroma?...

F-R-I-E-N-D-S

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

O Yeah!

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......

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...
