The Survivior

Image
This blog title could apply to so much now...right?... the Sole Survivor ...but, I am talking the tele show... 20 years of a series ...who does that?... Monday Night Football? ... 40 seasons of telecasting a group of peeps, stranded somewhere...lying, cheating, scrambling about, to convince their cohorts, that they should be the winner. ..of a million bucks...as the Sole Survivor...the host, Jeff Probst, is a constant thru all these two decades....that's the setup...as the last one, was a conglomeration of all winners...and cuz, they were, the cash winning prize was $2 million dollahs ... The winner was so deserving...the jury consisted of ALL the voted out contestants...which they have not done before....the production of the show is magnificent...the scenery is splendid...just can't say enough positive things about it all... Tony won it ...a cop...if you haven't taken it in, go to your 'On Demand' and take a peek...you will see what I mean...good stuff... 3...

Mercy Me

Have mercy ...what song was that from?...maybe it was Have mercy, baby ...anyhoo, I don't know...it is a real Q...did you know that there was, er is, a real rock band called Have Mercy? ...yea, me neither...out of Baltimore...I think...OMG, if you are depending on me for facts, this is the exception to the rule...day...maybe that lick was from the Guess Who? ...hmmm, I am not saying guess who?...but, the band that is called... aw, forget it...forget I even brought it up... Well... James Brown cut a record of 'Have Mercy Baby'. ..is that what I referring to?...so did, Clyde McPhatter and the Dominoes. ..sure seems that I am hearing something else in me head...who else could it be?...I am stumped... As we were in celebratory mood last nite for the Solidarity ...shortly thereafter, it RAINED! ...not forecasted anywhere...as I could smell it prior ...as I told the little woman, that I smell rain...we laughed, cuz you couldn't see any clouds...thought it to be a jo...

Tempestuous

Image
Just another example of the character of Big Orange ...as he embattled himself with the press, who has the audacity to ask him probing questions in a press conference... TEMPESTUOUS is my description of him...as he belittled and badgered a couple of lady reporters. ..and, in his way with dealing with them.. .tried to shut them up ...and then he abruptly ended the 'oration'...yes, all, further samplings of the incorrigible 'leadership' of his regime ...hey, I thought he wasn't going to do the briefings for awhile?...couldn't help himself, I reckon...it's like a circus coming to town, and he is the ringleader...and the clown, all rolled up into one ...how do I really feel?... Such a huge dilemma... opening up a society ...with protection...to think that each and every Nation is doing the same...just so hard to imagine...all of this... I keep wondering this...why would one, the police, or whomever... put people behind bars , in a place that is totally o...

Make Up Monday

Image
As I think back to me working days...the clean up, was always on a Monday... the loose ends , tied back up...what was left over on Friday...well, now they were put back together...the best laid plans...now a reality...thing is, in the now...there is no Friday...days are all the same...I know, this is a bit morose, but damn it all, a truth...so, kids, do the best you can at picking yourself back up...start a new...make that, anew...figure out a pattern to make you and yours, happy...seek the future...I know, it is hard to do...but, it is a must... Nothing like a pep talk to start off a week, right?... In our quest to improve our daily lot...we ordered an electric bike pump ...and now, we see how worthy it actually is...you have to plug it in...get power...and voila...supposedly, the tires get inflated...to the pressure you set...it will be a learning curve, I am sure... Snooki's song of the day ... 'Running on Empty' by Jackson Browne ...geez, more of the same talk,...

Happy Mother's Day

Image
Albeit, very tough to call it 'Happy' , it is time to pay tribute to all the MOTHERS out there in our great land... Happy Mothers Day ...I zone in, especially on those closest to me.... me mum, Cris's mom, and Cyrus's mom ...we give thanks to them so much... Verna, Marsha, and Leila ...'we' are going to celebrate the day, by doing what 'she' wants...a dindin from the one Chinese Restaurant in our area, that 'she' liketh...yes, kids, Panda Express ...for some odd reason, the numbers of that type of food are few and far between down here in SD...at least, in the downtown area...go figure... We did, in fact, do the home pizza thang yesterday...which included a bike ride to Little Italy, to get the fixins needed...made it the culmination of a work out ride, too...big mistake...as the jaunt, was an uphill ride at the end...that via car, you never notice...to an Italian Market...where, 'she' had to stand in line to get in...then, stand i...
