The Way It Was

One of them pixel channels, was replaying some old MLB All Star games...I was mildly interested in the '85 fray...as the announcer was doing his thang, and boom boxing the celebrated players...something got me goosed up...in the National League, there were, gulp, FIVE starters from the...Padres...ah, the San Diego Padres!!!...ie, the manager of the team...of course, it had the legend, Tony Gwynn in it...now, this was back when I did not give a rusty hoot about them, but still...the history is there...in the present, we get one all star, as per every team in the league...wouldn't it be nice to get back to the glory years?...that is, when all this starts back up...

Continued  'The Last Dance'...only got thru a bit of the first part of last night's show...it is getting a bit heavy on Michael, er, Jordan...true, he be the star, but a team...takes more than just one...duh...the country does go overboard on making superior athletes bigger than they actually are...'role models?'...perhaps...this is the agenda of the show last eve...showing how big he actually got...and is, apparently, still...don't get me wrong, he was an unbelievable hoopster...

Tried...and let that be a relaxed sigh, too...tried...to go to Costco yesterday...oh my... the line was clear around the building!...to get in!...we, took a look at each other, and said 'nope'...of we scurried to our hidden gem of a super...not telling you where...in and out...plenty of food and whatnots...of course, not as cheap as Costco...but, no line...no waiting...

This is like what we are doing...watching some shows that maybe, just maybe, we wouldn't normally...the Property Brothers...as they redo a house in like 5 or 6 weeks...for a 'celebrity'...it's good fun...last night was a casa in Minneapolis, Minnnneessooota...luv to see the transformation...replacing the insulation was way cool, er warm...but the little thing that caught me eye?...they added a couple of turntables to the remodel...as the occupant was into vinyl LP's...visited a vintage vinyl shop in that city...that was off the charts, rad...makes me want to go there...yea, when this is all lifted...

I have mentioned this before...but, it's worth going back to...playing music while you cook...turn off the tele, well, mute whatever is on...pick out some groovy tunes...and get jiggy while you fry up some eggs...

Snooki's song of the day...and how apropos...'We Gotta Get Out Of This Place' by the Animals...the World wants to do just that...right?...the Animals were led by Eric Burdon...who still sings at the 'British Revivals'...well, did...their biggest hit was 'House of the Rising Sun'...right?...good tunes, nonetheless...

Nothing more repulsive to moi, than watching big Orange on the tele...ranting and raving...spewing hatred to everyone and...blaming everyone ELSE for what is going on...I digress...

What's on the menu for today?...I mean, what other item of interest is there?...we talk early in the day, about what it is...plan for the dinner...plot the timing...we eat at 5...sharp...yea, so it is going to be a pot roast...cooked in our Le Creuset...that is the spelling, right?...takes 3 hours, at 310*... check at 2...might need to add broth...fall apart goodness...with taters...salad...voila!....

I'll see you tomorrow, on the web net...thanks for reading...

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...
