First Friday


This month, has a feel...like heat!...warmth...maybe too much of it...ha ha...up and down the west coast, this Labor Day weekend, the temperature is going to swelter...perhaps, triple digits in some areas...prepare for it, as it is coming...

Now THAT is how to draw up a 0.5 second play!...in the Raptors/Celtic conclusion to game 3...unlike what the Jazz did NOT do, the night before (The Beatles)...double back screen, with a lob pass to the open dude, as he hit a 3 ball to win it for Toronto...kept them in the series, now down 2-1...

Still in the bubble...Denver, coming off of a 7 gamer, were squashed by the Clippers...could be the Nuggets were tired, or, the Clip Joint is mighty good...a combo...probably...

The mighty Padres were toting heavy bats, I reckon, in the afternoon game at Anaheim...did not score...lost 2-0...very unlike them this shortened season...oh well, off to Oakland for a pair, I think...

Labor Day weekend...used to be my last hurrah before school started back up for the year...I'd go to the State Fair, and wager on the ponies...grand fun...now, of course, we are no longer there...as there is question as to the schools, too...and the ponies no longer run at the Oregon State Fair...

Alas, due to the pandemic and all...this weekend does feature something that has not been in this spot before...the Kentucky Derby...THE horse race of the year...much like THE Masters, in golf...of course, it will be fan less...and NO, I have not handicapped it....yet...

The guy who (allegedly) did the killing in PDX, was himself killed by US Agents in the neighboring state of Washington...thus far, sketchy details as to how...will be released whenever...

If true...and I emphasize, IF TRUE...the article in the Atlantic...about the comments made by Trump in '18...about his thoughts of fallen soldiers in Europe...WW1...will have devastating consequences...I would think...

Snooki's song of the day...'Any Major Dude Will Tell You' by Steely Dan...you know them...'Rikki, Don't Lose That Number'...yes, M, Snooki is from Oregon...not the Jersey shore...

I am going to tell you the obvious here...but...there is no doubt my concerns about the country as it is now...with the present leadership...at times, I may make jest of, in my mind, ludicrous things...and if you disagree with me...it's like watching TV...either turn it off, or switch channels...quit reading me...it's OK...as one of my very close REAL friends quite often said, when we bickered...especially about the ponies..."you have the right to be wrong"...

Make the best of this Friday, will ya?...

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...
