It's Never Over, til...


Beisbol
, they play 9 innings to settle the outcome...ah, usually...we'll get back to this...BUT, the mighty Padres went into LaLa Land, and won 3 of 4...the last one was the most surprising...as we were down 7-1 and wallowing in a disgusting effort...VOILA!...the bats awakened...the game is tied at 7, and off to OT the match up goes...a few innings later, the winning score came home via a sac fly by Hos (who else?)...and the Dodgers are head scratching as to figure out how this could happen...a day off, now it's time to play with that much character against OTHER teams...

I mention the 9 innings...well, last season, the league brought up the silly notion to play double headers as 7 inning games...ah, like high school...to save time, I reckon...it has been adopted...and the DBack's Madbum threw a N0-No at Atlanta...for the shortened game and it does NOT register into the record books!...What?...if the game does, the action should, too...revisit this, MLB...and give him his due credit...

Didn't I see a capacity crowd there in Atlanta, too?...WTH?...do they have different rules in Georgia?....wait, of course they do...what was I thinking?...

DID watch the Oscars after all...disjointed and disappointing, to say the least...or the most...listen brass, you NEED a host...and you need direction...just like the movies that ya'll vote on...imagine having a film without a director...that is exactly what this broadcast looked like...and talk about weird...they named the best film BEFORE the best actress and actor...

All of the above culminated and the Horse had time to switch over to the Kings/Warriors game...for all the notoriety that Curry gets, he threw the ball away after being trapped...in another high school move...luckily,  the bloke was so surprised by the gift, he fumbled the winning bucket...out of bounds...odd set of happenings...as Curry then missed a FT...what?...missed?...let's just say it was NOT pro stuff...

The PGA team event...the Aussies beat the South Africans...sure seemed like it was a head to head match...where were the USA blokes?...wonder where those finalists actually live now?...

My new and improved best of the day...the BEST album over the years...that had more impact than any other that I can recall...'Sgt Pepper' by the Beatles...it changed the game...with sounds coming from everywhere...and a concept approach to a record...

We have changed our tee time...the rain (yes to does here) is coming a tad bit later...so we, are going early...gotta run...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

O Yeah!

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......

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...
