CRAZY HORSE

Ya'll recall when the response to a 'how ya doin'?' , was 'CHILLING!, just chilling' ...er, maybe that was 'wassup?' ...of course, it changes all the time...and who does it?...I mean, who starts the slang?... what guy or gal comes up with the phrases, that seemingly EVERYONE uses? ...do they sit in a cubicle and devise what the rest of the population will sing out for the next few months?...does it start on the television?...perhaps...or in a colossal flick that just comes out?...I dunno... far out ...well, rad ... groovy? ...man, it takes a super hipster to say the lingo , then people think it is right on...then, they follow suit and start repeating whatever that may be...right?... dig it? ... If you respond, 'fine' ...then you must be a square ...and NOBODY wants to be a square...you know I once thought that I had it 'made in the shade' if I could afford a $10, 000 car...or a place of me very own, a 'pad' ...and who d...

Doesn't happen too often around these parts...you'd think it would...getting FOGGED in...living so close to the bay and the ocean...but, this am, the sound of the FOG HORN was the impetus in me waking up...the other sounds of the city, usually dominate...the train and it's bloody whistle...the cars...the occasional screams of a street person...one of the jets taking off over at Coronado...those are the normal... pictured here is a beautiful shot of above the Coronado Bridge ...rising above the FOG ... BREAKING NEWS! ...from the mouth of Trump...about the none casualty count in the Iran counter missile strike...the TRUTH is otherwise, of course...CNN just reports 34 soldiers with brain injuries ... If you were watching the Farmer's out at Torrey Pines yesterday afternoon on the Golf Channel...you saw the FOG rolling in and delaying the play for about 20 minutes ...mysteriously right after Tiger finished his round...ha ha...he plays by different weather than...

Seems like I do this a lot...do the Throwback Thursday Thing ...yup, borrowed from Facebook ...and who knows where they stole it from ...but still...when you look back at what was going on 5-10 years ago ...it does jaunt your memory a bit...and, for us elders, how we looked back then...right?...pix here is the cassette ...the condensed musical marvel from the 8 track ...which preceded the CD ...you DO know what I am talking about, right?... Have you imagined what this whole Impeachment Show would be like if it were done in a REAL COURTROOM? ...picking a jury that had no previous knowledge of the bloke...er, accused ...must have the witnesses come forward...and testify...then it would be up to the JURY to decide the fate... not the present SHOW of 100 partisan 'jurors' ...yea, I know, it's not the way of the Constitution...just a passing thought...and a tickler for the day ... There have been some passionate responders to the past couple of days events in the ...

Curious, yet anticipated ...the opening act of the 'Senate Trial' of the Impeachment of Trump ...make that acts...the United States ELECTED House of Representatives Monitors ...delivering the articles of Impeachment to the 'JURY' of 100 Senators ...whereas 53 of them, Republicans, staunchly united behind their 'leader' ...also, the 'JURY' then listen to Trump's lawyers, no ELECTED people , mind you...in rebuttal...THEN, the Republicans( er, JURY ) VOTE down anything that the House brings forth...in a nutshell?... There are those of the minority that are calling this whole debacle a SHAM ...perhaps, but it is the government at work as it shall ...on the other side of the World, Trump addresses the media...oh my...which he WON'T do in his own country...and labels the Impeachment as a HOAX ...at least he is consistent on this name calling... 'Mr. President, can obstruction of justice be an impeachable offense? ... depends , he retor...

The government will work as it shall ...are we, the public, privy to what is really going on?...alas, I could have been saying this for some time now...sure, and not just in this regime ...but, we are focused on the here and now ...just exactly HOW will the Senate run the trial of the century... the Impeachment of Donald John Trump ...and WILL the television lenses be allowed on the Senate floor?...there already is a near gag order in place...no Senator may use her or his cell phone, nor speak to one another as the 'whatever' is going on... The 'whatever' is the issue here... witnesses or no witnesses? ...who gets to speak and then, how long?...the number of Republicans are greater than the Democrats...is that going to be the deciding factor?...are the House of Representatives monitors to be allowed to state the case that they have brought forth?...I keep hearing this from so many of the judicial 'experts' , that this is not like a real trial that wo...

Did NOT see that coming...the brilliant performance by the San Francisco 49ers! ...total domination of both lines...and that was it...if you were looking for a competitive game, it was not this one...as the Green Bay Packers were completely beaten...if you are a SF fan, you were delirious!...off they and you go to the Sooper Bowl...versus the best team in the land...oops, there I go, tipping my hand...the Kansas City Chiefs ...so many options offensively...that handled a very game Tennessee Titan squad...a much better match, at least for awhile... throw in a couple of weeks of hype, and it is on... MLK Day ...not sure about why it is this day, but whatever... to honor him is needed and he was the voice of the people...one of our best orators of all time ... Martin Luther King ...his assassination was yet another disaster during my collegiate days...as well as Robert Kennedy...man, it was a horrific time in our country's history... The calm before the storm... the Impeachm...

In a rather benign sports weekend , where the rest of the games, matches, duels, whatever, are just not that BIG ... the NFL will dominate it, on this Sunday, January 19, 2020 ...with the playoffs. ..beginning in Kansas City, Missouri ...then, heading over to Santa Clara, California ...for the 2nd and final game...both are outside stadiums, so the weather will be a factor...KC will be in the low 20's, with no precipitation...just freezing cold!...Santa Clara will be mid 50's, also with no wet stuff...there you go, if you can believe the weather people... The upset minded Tennessee Titans will be in KC, facing the host Chiefs ...I am bewildered that the spread is only 7 1/2...I am pulling for the ground purge, and clock consuming game plan of the Titans...but, reality takes over...KC is really really talented...too many options to score...and quickly... figure the score about 34-14 ...in that neighborhood... The 2nd game is another deal...as the Green Bay Packers trave...
