Seems like only yesterday, our trip to the Grand Canyon...it was a year ago, today...couple that with the trip to get there...via the Route 66...if you haven't, it is a journey into yesteryear...the burgers and shakes of an era that was filled with happy music...yes, I do mix the sounds of the 50's and 60's often in me blog...guess it is a trait...hang in there, with my only quirk...just kidding...that, with my mangling of the English language...an indirect battle with Orange, on who is worse...could be his ONLY win this year...I digress...
Am I wrong about this?...I believe that one must keep politics out of education...hmmm, as to whether or not...to open up schools...to benefit one's election possibilities...the grouping of kids, students, shoot, a grouping of any amount of people...until there is a vaccine for Covid, is a huge mistake...a blunder of epic proportions!...and if and when they get infected...do they go home?...stay in the school?...isolated how?...tell me...inform all of us...you political hacks, what is YOUR plan?...
The mail in ballot...this crossed my desk path...that the Russians (Trump's personal AG Barr, says it is China) are perfecting the ballot, to infiltrate the states that are sending them out...and they will mass produce them and send 'em in...say what?...perhaps, Orange should have kept his boca quiet...it would have benefitted him...hadn't thought of that...in these sinister times, expect the unexpected...ah, a term used on 'Big Brother'...appropriate, here...
The mighty Padres split both series in north of here, Cali...Anaheim and Oakland...well, back home we are...as I said yesterday...oh for a Covid free time in our stadium...it would be rocking and rolling, like in the 50's...sugar and spice...hip to be square...jump jivin'...even, boogying down...in our quest for the post season playoffs...oops, made a mistake...one more game in Oakland this afternoon....
OK, all you expert hoop officials out there...in the last second play of a game...do you swallow your whistle, or get down with a foul?...yea, don't tell me you follow the book...in crunch time, YOU are either a call guy (girl) or a let 'em play one...well, I couldn't say call girl...that would be just not right...
Ah, the former personal attorney for Trump...Michael Cohen...is baring his soul, with a 'tell all' book about his former employer...this, after he let him rot in prison for a bit...think there is some pent up angst in his story?...and, he probably wrote his memoirs himself...unlike Donny, who had a ghost writer for his books...reminds me so much of the episode in Seinfeld...where Peterman had Elaine write his 'story'...of course, Trump's base will call it all...Fake...
It's already 76* here in SD...on the way up to 93*...this is totally a fluke in our weather pattern...TG for the pool...as to lay in it, is a dream...the only blip?...some dead bugs a floatin'...too...that, also, never happens...so much for perfection...
The Kentucky Derby...the Baffert trained hoss, won yet again...and yes...the Horse had him on the nose...Authentic, with John Velazquez aboard...yup, cleared $30 bucks on the race...would have bet more, but my TVG account had limited funds...ha ha...you know, on a fixed income...
Snooki's song of the day...'Will You Be Staying After Sunday' by The Peppermint Rainbow...hmmm, recallin' olden days, Snooki?...well, a '69 hit for them...and him, I spose...
Game day...the lead in to the collegiate football games of the week...due to the lack of teams, they featured a Zoom Mtg of some players...on the topic, 'Black Lives Matter'...one such delivery, by a Texas Longhorn FB player...how he was taught at a young age, to expect to be pulled over by the cops...just because...keep both hands on the wheel...answer with a yes sir, or yea ma'am to all questions...they then switched to the analysts doing their own Zoom mtg...Kirk Herbstreit starting crying...others followed suit...how things really are...
We received a video phone call from the kids and their kid, our grandson Cyrus...he is growing so...words are purnt near passing that of Orange...soon...anyhow, he showed love to Gammy Marsha...and when he saw me, Pappi...he CRIED!...I have that affect on many people...
It's been 8 months, but we finally got our passports in the mail yesterday...kind a looked like a mail in ballot...which I thought they were...part their fault for lazy processing, and part ours for sending our own photos, in lieu of store taken ones...we had to have BONAFIDE ones...gosh, I love that word...well, they are in our possession now...Europe, here we come!...what?...they won't let us in?...damn it, Jared...
Stay cool...
