Trickle Down?

As we have long accepted the generality of the  differences of our two parties in the US of A...the rich cats of the Republicans, and the common man of the Democrats...the Horse was the one that saw it differently...first and foremost, there is lots of money in both...there once was a boatload of unions...not so much anymore...the fragmentation within both parties is confusing...whatever happened to the Tea Party?...the ultra rich, have gotten richer...what was suggested a mere 50 years ago, by Prez Reagan...that feed the upper tier, and the common man would benefit, too...the TRICKLE DOWN...???...

I dunno...I'm just talking here...with 1/3 of the eligible people NOT voting...at the best of times...well, this confuses moi...why not?...and 50% of the people not paying taxes...is there a trickle down?...how many are still on food stamps?...the homeless and or, street people appear to have multiplied...all over the place...

Politics...so bewildering...but, this I find a truth...that most people can't be persuaded to change parties...regardless who is leading them...this I find very odd...so much for debates...as you are not swaying very many peeps, if any...the 'non-committed voter' is a misnomer...prove me wrong, kids...

I missed the clash of the former Duck QB's...the LA Chargers playing the Las Vegas Raiders...two transplanted franchises...the LV QB, went down and was replaced by Marcus Mariota...who has not played all season...the Charger's dude, and highly probable ROY, Justin Herbert, led them...to an OT win...both Duck QB's...had peops texting me, that they were on...UO be proud!...

Yup, them Ducks are in LaLa, in the Pac 12 champ game vs the Trojans...who are favored by 3...5 pm...lordy, I hope I can see that...

Staying in that area...Snooki's song of the day...'Walking In The Rain' by The Ronettes...and Jay and the Americans (my most under-rated group of the decade) and the Walker Bros...the PNW elder is mired in countless days of rain...I feel your pain, dude...

A highlight?...VP Pence and his wife got the Pfizer vaccine today...live and in color...trump was no where found, or seen...probably in his bunker, still...

Guliani, the minister of madness, arrived back from Russia...hailed a bus, and was turned away, no mask...was seen walking in the snow...trying to thumb a ride...

When Congress writes and passes a bill, that is Prez proof...that he can't veto it...makes me wonder why they don't write them all like that, with you know who is in the White House...

Our Xmas present to ourselves...we did order a TV that has earc in it...well, Marsh is not too crazy about that....but...whatever...

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...

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
