CRAZY HORSE

Here we go again ...this is troublesome from all angles...as we are in the midst of a virus ladened life here in SoCal ...shoot, it's everywhere...and the Cali Guv Newsome , is responding... SHUT 'ER DOWN! ... stay at home...don't travel...NO GROUPINGS!...the closure of all restaurants and bars...take out only ...you can imagine what else is SHUT DOWN! ...as the numbers of Covid are off the charts...like, I am not even sure what the color is used on this...red?...whatever... Deja Vu , all over again...so we ALL pay for people who haven't done what has been asked ... mask, social distance and wash you hands ...here in SD, we have been on orders of being in the casa, from 10 pm til 6 am...ah, except the street people...so, we have been ahead of the curve...curve?...well, ahead of the mandates... I must say, that wherever I go, wherever I watch, wherever I look...I see all people in masks ...social distancing?...appears so...but, who knows what happens behind closed doors...

Did he or didn't he? ...it's the burning Q of this Friday, December 4 of 2020 ...well, it is now...you flick junkies think you know all about Casablanca ...as Rick (eh, Bogie) is talking to his piano dude, Sam (Dooley Wilson) ... WAIT! ...it's really Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) who was doing the conversation with Sam...asking him to "play it, Sam. Play 'As Time Goes By'" ...but never, and I repeat, NEVER in the film does anyone say... PLAY IT AGAIN, SAM ...and YOU thought you knew everything... 30 years laters, Woody Allen did a movie with that nomenclature 'Play It Again, Sam' ...supposedly, Woody was a Casablanca freak...lurved it...this one, had as it's had actors... Woody, of course, and Dianne Keaton ...actually got 4.6 stars...but, per usual, I never rated his flicks as highly as the 'experts'... Yes, I have no idea why I led with this today...it just came to me...must have seen a commercial for it...or something... The song itse...

I have so much to say today...let's start with these 3 former Presidents ... Obama , Bush , and Clinton ...who have volunteered to take the Covid 19 vaccine LIVE , so the country can see the effects and the NEED for it...can't believe there are skeptics, but they do exist.. .listen, kids, we need protection ASAP ...of course, our eyes are on the UK to see how their reaction to the Pfizer product works out... Why this necessity?...the numbers... MY GOD, the numbers ...yesterday was the WORST for deaths due to the virus since it got here ...it has gone to the rampant level... it amazes me that the current inhabitant of the White House is absolutely MUM on the topic ...the most awful leader in the history of the United States of America!...despicable...deranged...the descriptions go on and on... So what does he do, with the opportunity to help the Nation?...goes on a 45 minute rant about the fraud in the election ... nary a word or compassion for HIS people that are sufferi...

'The Chattanooga Choo Choo' , made famous by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra ...back in 1941 ... as the country was needing a terrific swing tune ... the World was at War ...had a monster line in it, 'PARDON ME BOY' ...for a kick, and I do mean, a kick...spend some of your free moments, listening to the songs of that time period...they were fantastic!... I think XM still has a 40's station, too. ..there are options for ya'll... BUT , that word 'PARDON' has one of those double meanings ...in the song, it was 'accept my apologies' .. .'I'm sorry for...' ...you get my drift...nowadays, it has the other meaning... 'PARDON' has the connotation of 'get out of jail for free card' ... 'please disregard me, for all my sins, and set me free' ...try this, 'exonerate me now, for what I am going to be charged for' ... The latest and most mystifying issue that has come up from the White House...is all this talk abo...

I'm gonna take you down another path today, kids... time for some learnin' ...perhaps, you are already privy to the what, why, and where of the most gorgeous plant that is known for surfacing during Christmas, er Holiday, time...OK, I am the one that objects to those who are afraid to call it Christmas time ...so, for the next greater part of the month, don't expect me to shy away from what I think it should be called... man, Horse, you do get carried away ...BUT, what I am referring to is the POINSETTIA! ...mostly found and grown as RED, but there are other colors out there... It was a plant indigenous to Mexico ...and our (the USA's) Mexico ambassador, Joel Roberts Poinsett , who brought them back to the US...like in the 1825's or so...yes, you can see the name change of the plant, at least to us, the US...there is a German family that dug it, and cultured it here...and there...well, and everywhere... the Ecke Family ...still do, one of their spots is actually ...

I would have to say that the company, Moderna , has superseded Cyber for the rights to this Monday...as it has applied to unleash it's Covid 19 vaccine on the world ...er, to the world...94% efficiency it has claimed...seems fine to moi...the powers to be?...not sure who makes the final decision... let's stay tuned to this story and see where it leads. .. Cyber ...so we scour the web net to see what great deals this day is supposed to have...if you missed Black Friday ones, surely there will be some steals out there today...lawdy, I am getting countless ads in my email...that most go directly to promotions ...how does your mail work?... I use Gmail ...mail or email... I dunno the diff...is there one?... A little bugaboo in the city...whether or not to follow the former San Diego Chargers ...who now are the Los Angeles Chargers ...I see loads of faded blue jerseys around, so figure there are still fans here...and, do you root for the blokes, or root against?...seems fruitles...

Resonating throughout this pandemic world, is that many of us have trouble doing the most important thing of all ... SLEEPING ...well, not sure if it's the most, but dang it all, it sure helps the bod and mind, right?. ..coupled with this ridiculous change of time, the daylight saving one, it has thrown the whole normalcy out the window ...in your parting days of the office, do this donny...change it all back to normal time...we could call it 'orange time' ...there you go, you would get what you wanted all along, to be infamous... let's be frank here, he will be infamous regardless ... Yea, I am borrowing from the great flick 'Sleepless in Seattle' ... Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks , a feel good film that was totally engaging...do they (you know, them) make these types anymore?... I love 'em ...want to spend some two hours, getting in a good mood...as I have called it quite often, a diversion...shoot, let's reprise those two actors in another romantic come...
