Tighten Up


Gonna put you back a bit, but one of my all time fav 'feel good' songs...by Archie Bell and the Drells...'Tighten Up'...who puts his name at the intro of a hit?...they did...of Houston, Texas....one of them Final 4 teams this year...Houston...who plays Baylor...in the other side of the bracket, the front running Gonzaga...vs the last Pac 12 candidate...UCLA!...

What a game that was!...as the Bruins beat Michigan for the last spot in the semis...you can't say that the Wolverines didn't have their chances...missing 2 good looks at the end...in a match up that I didn't really care who won, I can enjoy the game more...

Sooooo, who wins out?...figure it will be the Zags and Baylor for the title...and get this, either team can win...yup, the Horse sticks his long neck out...

I had my annual physical yesterday...why do I stress over this?...well, not too high on getting poked and prodded...but, my insurance has added a bit to the agonizing hour...they throw in a memory test...guess to check to see if the Alzheimer's thang is kicking in...she stumped me on 'put 10:50' on a clock...dang, fell for it...and, before they poked out all me blood...they prodded out some wax in my ear...lordy, you have ever had that done?...like I shoulda been on one of them made for TV doc shows...

Opening day is mañana for the mighty Padres...gone is March, and here we go April...and beisbol!...anticipation, the best word in the English language...

OK, I must tell you...the cooking of the tater tots...the very best, Jerry, the very best...done in the air fryer...400*, for 15 minutes, turning them once...voila!...perfection...

Snooki's song of the day...'Kiss of Life' by Sade...hmmm, I thought she was a one hit wonder, and not this one...'Smooth Operator'...comes to mind...see, he is much deeper, than moi...I give him full credit...well, he should be...my older elder senior citizen from the homeland...who still has some of my highly precious Beatle albums...in his possession...

Perhaps, in your home, you have some form of water purification system...we do not...so we have been using a Brita...along comes another, that is sposed to be better, but slower...ZeroWater...yup, ordered it from Amazon...and we shall see...

Prez B is introducing an infra structure plan for the Nation...you DO know that much of what we drive on was made in the 1930's, right?...90 years ago...think about that for a bit...those bridges you are traveling on, over the agua...hmmm...just saying....the timing is right for improvements, don't you think?...or replacements...

Saw one of the most intriguing things in a while...a new club...open to everyone...who wants to join...The Mulligan Club'...gives you the right to take one, every round...shoot, I've been doing that for years...now, it's a club?...

My Doc asked if I smoked...my response was "do cigars count?...so then yes...but I don't inhale"...so felt like Slick Willy when I was talking to her...yea, she gave me, the evil eye...who knows what she wrote on the damned folder about moi...I'm sure it's not good...

Speaking of golf...the advertisements go off the charts for new things...the driver will let you hit it 10 yards farther...the putter will make you putt straighter...the grips will make you...OK, you get me drift...but, Sir Nick Faldo, has let this one out...the shoes he is endorsing will help you hit the rock 7 yds further...c'mon, Sir, give us all a break...and after this one, don't ever rock Rickey for his commercials...

Well, March is ending...which means them damn bills are lurking...

Here are Archie Bell and the Drells....

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
