Some Good News

Image
My headline could be like most of the 23 sources I read... the gloom and doom of the day, month, well, the year ...I choose to go elsewhere... 'I'm Into Something Good' , ah, by Herman and his Hermits...Peter Noone ...who, BTW, we saw in concert out at Sycuan last year...hmmm, maybe 2 years ago...fun show...I digress... let's talk about the dude who is leading the PGA T in Connecticut ...the 50 year old...taking down the 20 something years young flat bellies... Phil Mickleson...'Lefty' , who really is a righty, but plays the game from the other side of the ball...hey, how about his 'new shades?' ... Not sure if there is a more personable pro out on the circuit ...at least, to the fans...and, after listening to him, miked up at the charity event a couple of months back...with Tiger, and the 2 QB's...he is...I mean, HE IS!... engaging...humorous...full of fun and energy. ..anyhoo, he has the lead after 2 rounds...and let this gem out...that he ...

Morning, kids... it is Friday the 26th of June ...just in case you are confused as to the day and the number, and the month...and...well, you get my drift...whatever it is...this is a golf day, so I may be a bit brief...have almost an hour to write...so here I go... Following the lead of Lady A, who dropped the Antebellum...the outstanding country singing group...the Dixie Chicks have altered their name, too...now, they are The Chicks ...OK, I get it...how about the NFL team, the Washington Redskins, doing the same, and going as the Washington Skins?...good lord, it could be anything but what they currently have...right?... I have never, ever, tried to figure out the rationale that Huge Orange uses...his latest?...asking the Supreme Court to take down Obamacare...in these times?...he really must have a short circuit between his ears...what could possibly motivate him?...does he think that it would be a check mark on his resume for the election?... You want some poll results?...

Thursday Atavism

How far back can I go? ...on this overcast, Thursday of ours, in the Marina District in San Diego?...well now, I could be anywhere... for the memories ...but, one of my very favs...was when we told our son, that we were moving ...he was a 5th grader...and he protested big time...thing is , we were just pipe dreaming, so to speak...anyhoo, we were in the hot tub the next day...he must have dwelled on it, the news, for most of the day and night...he came to us, and said 'alright, I'm ready to go, let's do it!' ....which we did in the next few months... I could not believe his maturity at that time... The John Bolton book ...is tedious and full of exacting conditions and dates...he is known for that...takes copious notes...thus far, I see that the blokes who first interviewed him to 'enter' the Trump Team...had mostly already...geez, two adjectives together, a no no...pardon moi...they had been 'fired!'...the one that perseveres, is none other than Iv...

You Want Your Baseball?

You GOT it!...the owners and the players union finally agreed to a season... Major League Baseball ...MLB... 60 game regular season...with full playoffs ...hmmm...well, let's see how this goes...as our Padres have gone back to the brown, and discarded their blue unis...which, of course, I have a ton of...the blue ones...have not heard all the particulars as of yet...with such a short set of games, you gots to be on...like right away...in lieu of 162... Surprise!... the John Bolton book arrived yesterday...am dang excited to get into it...let me be the judge and jury...ha ha...gosh, I have not read a book for a bit...odd, as I have had tons of time...but, nuttin' intrigued moi....this one does...oh yea, and Orange is still trying to ban his niece's book, set to come out next month...like anything in it, is going to prejudice the people...he has done enough for that...all by himself...in the past 3 horrific years of 'leadership'... Siena College just released a...

Tuesday Tidbits

Good morning, my good friends...thanks for coming back to read moi...yes, I was missing yesterday...had a 7:18 tee time , which means I depart from the Marina District at 6:18...yowser, that is early...thus, I was AWOL from my blog post ...pardon me...or, like in Huge Orange's terms 'PARDON me!' ...to all his former henchmen in prison...or jail...or wherever they put them... Turned in and turned on to a 'new to me' series... Jack Ryan ...not the type that Marsh likes, but is full of action and drama...that I sometimes dig...Marsh is a no, so it is a singular watch...also...we tried in vain to watch the NEW Perry Mason ...was cool at first, then could not possibly follow the story line (s?)...who was what, who was?...well, we couldn't figure it out...so, we are a NO to it...surprisingly, gory, too...say what?.... where is Raymond Burr?... Statues ... symbolisms of past times...a remembrance ...someone, at some time, deemed that some person needed to be imm...

Happy Papa's Day

To all of you PAPA's out there, it is YOUR day... specifically to mine, and Cyrus's daddy ...in remembrance and in the now... Happy Father's Day! ...Marsh messed up and started with it yesterday...cooked me some breakfast...then, realized that is was in fact, today...she felt schickered...as I didn't tell her otherwise...figured it was a whole weekend...ha ha...anyhoo, hope ya'll have a great day... The Tulsa Catastrophe ...what else might you call it?... Huge Orange at his very worst ...the numbers he was touting for being there?...a joke, as only half the arena was filled...is that half empty or half filled?...maybe 10,000...maybe...mask less?...most of them...98%...good luck, on that...he had scheduled an outdoor oration, for all those who couldn't get in...ah, there was nobody OUT there...so, that was scratched... His revival speech ...I was curious...so, I watched and listened as long as I could stomach it...was absurd... he took at least 15 minute...
