Projections

Seems like the newsies decided to give us all some prognostications today, in their quest for headlines...pretty much all over the board, as one might say...well, I am that one...in reality, it's pretty easy to do that...PROJECT what will happen...and not have to be held accountable, other than to say that they were right...and IF wrong, oh well...some say this, one dude said that, and the other gal whispered this...right...

So, here we go...the 'rumors' that are out there...well, the educated guesses?...now, listen kids, these are not for sures...just notions of not so grand times...in some cases...

After all this is said and done, that housing prices will fall 30% to 40%...hmmm, with the interest rates at rock bottom, that would make it a 'buyers market'...listening to this, apparently you can do nothing about it...

Then another bloke said this...that there would NOT be a drop in prices of homes, just the number sold would drop 30-40%...see?...easy to say...

Good gawd...here is this...and, is reportedly more than just a rumor...Trump has ordered a shoot down order to 'his military', of any Iranian boat that is threatening ours...or, his...doesn't he have to ask Congress, for acts of war?...

Into the NFL draft, that happens tomorrow...that somehow, the NE Pats are going to trade up to number 13, and get the UO QB Herbert...now, that is dreaming...for all...

Invest in the stock market...NOW...the oil prices rebounded today, er this am...the market will surge...gosh, we took a ride yesterday, looking for some cheap wine...yes, a necessity...two things popped...the price of a gallon of petrol varied from $2.49 to $3.49!...WTF?...the other, as we drifted thru the ghost town of La Jolla, how devastating this is to all those businesses...I guess, a 3rd...that all boardwalks are shuttered...sure, and the beaches...

In marked contrast, we had a Zoom mtg with some Orygun friends...one couple played golf 6 of 7 days, and took one day off...to float the Deschutes...a little jealous I am?...more than a little...

Here me out...the Cali Governor has huge amounts of people to govern...pockets of huge amounts of people in cities, that has as many as some states...makes sense to me, that he releases the governing to those big city mayors...did I say that right?...I guess, I am just trying to get back out on the golf course...

OK, let's get on to some truths...as the Horse sees it...

NFL...expect a lot of interest in the Tom Brady version of the Tampa Bay Bucs...who has lured Gronk (TE) out of retirement to join him in Florida to play for the Bucs...ah, retiring in Fla...where the beaches are open...now, he has to strap on the helmet and play...I did say, play, right?...

Is there going to be a meat shortage?...the illusion of that is out there...carried by at least half of my sources...hmmm, much like the over-production of milk?...where they had to throw it away?...I need to come up with a term, like 'panic mongers'...

Snooki's song of the day...'Life In A Northern Town'...by a conglomerate of folks, Sugarland, Little Big Town, and Jake Owen...terrific song choice, Snooki...it's live, from one of them country award shows...and you can get it on Sugarlands best of...hey, the lead on that group, Jennifer Nettles, is absurd...does not get the accolades she deserves...just listen to her 'Stay' as an example...

The hair cutting razor arrived...and Marsh tried it on me, then Sammi...should have been the other way around...as I got butchered...the splotch missing from my backside, is NOT from lack of growth...as I watched a big divot of hair hit the floor beside moi...

For my smut piece of the day...an item that keeps popping up...that Ellen DeGeneres...is not what she seems...that she, in fact, is a mean person...now, I am not saying that that is true or false...but, that it keeps popping up...

Also, when this pandemic started...and you couldn't get TP....I ordered it online...well, it arrived yesterday, too...here is the product!...words, can't describe my feelings...unless, we lived in a miniature home...notice, the 'glass' of whatever, beside it, too...just to give you an idear of the TP size...

Oh my...and NO, still without a stimulus check...
