Friday Morsels

The headlines are pretty much the same, this morning...the added commentary, is the number of jobless...another duh...as we are mostly shuttered down...must be that the newsies like to see numbers in print...make very easy lead ins...this is nothing new to you or me...as one of the blokes on PTI (Pardon the Interruption), the talkee show on ESPN...Tony Kornheiser, said 'I watch 20 minutes of the news, and that's all I can take...then I watch something else, anything else...'...it's what I do, too...but, I read me 23 sources in the am, and...get damn depressed...takes me a while, to get going after...

As much as I despise Trump, the addition of his son in law, Jared Kushner, to his 'team'...and to actually allow the bloke to talk to the American public...is a slap in the face to us all...a new low, that only this guy, can pull off...with all the books I have read about this regime, there is not ONE thing good, that has EVER been said about Kushner...not ONE...and this is from a multitude of sources...gosh, I have to get off this...

Let's go to Survivor...ah, the TV show...it's such a relief...this season's group has nuttin' but past winners...so, we kind of know them...the inner workings of those who survive, are the same...who lies the best...I guess that is the ticket...anyhoo, the production of the show is top notch...and, I wish they were showing this more than once a week...anybody out there remember Boston Rob?....

Lot's of talk about the NBA...how they might finish off the season, sooner than later...hmmm...in time, of course...boarding all the players and staff, in Vegas...doing the playoffs there, with no fans...just televising the games...?...I dunno...wishful thinking, I reckon...

My sketch supplies have arrived...so, the new hobby will commence...have been wondering about what to draw...fruit, animals, people, scenery?...being a total novice, I am probably gonna try a face...famous person?...or someone, that nobody knows?...ha ha...then, I promise, I will publish it on this blog....this all in lieu of a jigsaw puzzle, that is apparently lost in the mail...

I am writing, and the sun is rising in the east...so wonderful...brings such promise with it...the little things...

We had to venture out to the super...tried Costco...as you see, we went adorned with masks...I would say that 2/3rds of the shoppers were doing the same...they had everything, but toilet paper and paper towels...so, yes, we are set for awhile...I am hearing of others that have had success with delivery services...must be the area, as ours keeps showing 'out of stock' on too many items that are needed...

Why?...when we have gone to other supers, the non-fat milk was always gone...why?...as Costco had their normal amounts there...makes no sense to me...none...tell me why...

Snooki's song of the day...'Superman (It's Not Easy)' by Five For Fighting...as he said, "it's all about the lyrics...about a hero, that just wants to be normal...for our Drs. and nurses, and all first responders...they are the Supermen and Superwomen!"...well said, I can not add anything else to his description...

Another diversion....a match game proposal in the golfing world...where some can still play (in the desert?)....jealous that I am...Tiger Woods, Lefty Mickleson, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning...no fans...a made for TV event...sometime and somewhere in May...with the social distancing and all, would they tote their own bags?...perhaps, have their own cart?...

My often mentioned country sanger, Sara Evans...has done an album of covers...that will be released in it's entirety in May...I think I read that...did release one of it's songs, this morning...'I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry'...kind of eerie, huh...a Hank Williams tune...

We passed by the bakery stuff...and there was this luscious looking tin of cinnamon rolls...as we are both watching our dietary consumption...NORMALLY it is a sniff and a pass by...nope, not this time...it went into the basket and we will be consuming said product this morning...don't give me any grief...we feel guilty enough...maybe skip our shakes at lunch...then, prepare for the Zoom mtg...later on...bourbon in hand, as yes, I got some Beam there, too...lordy, I was breaking down at Costco...hmmm, it's like I'm in a confessional...

And this...disgusting...the US Navy Captain, that sounded the alarm of his crew that were sick with the virus...his command of an aircraft carrier...was relieved of his duties, by the Navy brass, as dictated by Trump...as he disembarked, the sailors went ballistic in SUPPORT of him...

Got to finish on a highlight....not that...OK, here goes...as I was flipping thru the channels, happened on TVG....the horse racing one...VOILA!...there was this hoss, that was named 'Pete's Play Call' ....put $2 across the board...and yes, kids...a solid winner...more money in my account....

Now, a walk and then...a cinnamon roll!....

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...
