The Leap Year

Image
Funny how things are...as almost NO one has been talking about this once in a 4 year phenomena ... the Leap Year. ..where for one out of the four years, an extra day is added to the calendar...thus, this year we have 366 days...in reality, we have 365 and a quarter days each year. ..so, we add an extra day once every 4 years to compensate...got it?...from the believe it or not files, this was started by the one and only Julius Caesar ...yea, he was the one that started up the casino in Vegas, too...well, tongue in cheek, but this whole process started in 45 BC ...c'mon, really?...so it is written...and now, YOU KNOW the reason for the season... the Horse rests ... Why oh why the month of February has but 28 days, and then the 29th ...well, it is the way it is...I no likea, cuz I have to pay the bills a couple of days early...think about the poor soul that is born on Feb 29...has but one birthdate, every 4 years... almost as bad as being born on, or, around Christmas ...w...

Frenzy

Have you been following the Stocks?...expect yet another day in depth, and destruction...the Futures are rock bottom and so will the real market...I guess you have to find the ones that you will actually use as you stay home...and be free from the coronavirus...find those stocks...hmmm.... Are you going to purchase a mask?...the reports out yesterday, is that most of them do no good...that the real gooduns are in the hands of the hospital folks...there is that word again, 'folks'...who uses that anymore?... The civil war in hoops...OSU at UO...the Beavs have won the last 3...that streak is over...as the Ducks pummeled the Beavs in the 2nd half...don't get me wrong on this, but the Beavs are severely mismanaged....their team is every bit as good as the Ducks...at least talent wise....they don't press, they don't change up D's...they don't do a lot... PDX in another miserably played game in Indy...the lack of defense is legendary...I know, a broken rec...

Tepid Thursday

Must lead with the debacle in the stock market ...expect another disastrous day for the unpredictable place of 'investing' your money...it is said that it is all due to the coronavirus...exactly why?... the Futures have the Dow another 450 down ... Dow be down ...gosh...just not sure how this affects the cash flow...I guess cuz it's worldwide...right?... Your guy Trump finally has admitted it's an issue...not so much in the USA...but, just in case, he has pu t his right hand man, the current VP Pence, as the trigger man. ..to head the...well, whatever he is to be called...to fight the virus here in our country...let's hope he does better than when he did so in Indiana...when he messed up that's state virus...back when...check it out...or maybe, don't...and just have faith in what this regime will do to protect us all...egads... CNN has been doing town halls for the top Demo candy peops...I will say that Mike Bloomberg appeared a whole lot lika...

Calm Down, Kids

The gloves were OFF last eve for the South Carolina Demo debate ... attack was the mode ...in lieu of saying what they could do, they were in the 'what you can't do' one...just CALM DOWN, KIDS! ...of course, the leader up to this point, Bernie, got the most jabs ...'do the math'...oh my...and what got into Eliz? ... she went ballistic on Bloomberg ... Joe was ticked at everything ...even had over 150 million USA peops dying due to gun violence...well, his figure may be a bit off... Mayor Pete was more impressive by what he didn't say , as he looked bewildered by the audacious comments of Bloomberg...which were to be blunt, crazy...as much as I like Amy , she is too far out of it, to make this bid happen...and the other rich dude, Tom , made sense, but is too, on the outside looking in... My take? ... Bernie and Joe are the leaders ...but I still harbor this thought... more time should be spent on what they are going to do to take on Trump ...rather than on...

Palmetto State Concerns

Image
Wait a minute buster, before you get into this...you must tell me what a Palmetto is...it be the tree that is recognized as the official one of the state of South Carolina ...every state has some nickname, that is theirs...so, ah, what?...this is the debate for the eve...in the Palmetto State ...of course, the Demos are in a donnybrook...who is gonna be the candy man or woman?...the leader is Bernie ...and the hope of Joe , is that he can carry the Palmetto's...the polls are close for the 2...figure the outcome of tonight's talk, could be the diff... Let's say that after all the primaries, that Bernie does NOT have enough delegates to get the nod...even if he is the leader...what happens?...we have to trust the judgments of the delegates ...egads...here we go again...could be anyone that wins, then...make fun of what Iowa went through their chaotic caucus scene , but it could be eerily similar to that...who coerces whom to vote for ???...let's dig that the ot...

Stock Market Woes

Image
Hi, everyone! ... we are back from our Vegas trip ...more about that in a bit...but, the news for the day is the devastating opening bell in the stock market ...those in the know, er, say they are...say it's due to the coronavirus ...as they are letting on, a worldwide epidemic...dramatic hits to be taken...I just don't understand the why's...and how this affects the market (s)...it stops trading?...what?...stay tuned for the lack of action and thus, reaction... While in Vegas , we were amidst lots of political chaos ...starting with our arrival...as we were harbored on the tarmac for almost an hour, as Air Force 1 was either coming or going ...we could see it outside of our starboard side...ah, well, to the left... Trump's plane ...I guess that is what happens...as the laborers all said the same thing, 'he has been going in and out of Vegas, for his rabid revivals, for the past 2 or 3 days...it shuts down the airport...'. ..he must be staying at his Vega...
