Jubilation!

The news that we could ditch our masks, if fully vaccinated, was terrific MUSIC TO MY EARS!...that started yesterday...however, when we went into Von's for our food shopping, it was not the norm...signs everywhere, to wear masks...so, reluctantly, we put ours on...when checking out, asked the cashier when the masks signs would come down...she said that they were not to enforce it anymore...hmmm...

Here at the home, the board delivered the great news, that masks were indeed, not necessary anymore....IF you are fully vaccinated...so, as we passed thru the lobby, taking the dawg out for her walk...we had our faces free...kind of felt guilty of something...man, it is so much easier to breath...without the bloody mask....

The listless Padres...have now lost 12 of the last 16 games...mired in a horrific slump...it is a loooong season, but c'mon boys, time to crank it back up...don't think the excuses are there...just not producing...ah, earn your pay, dudes...

Can't imagine I wrote about that before the Biden/Putin talks...I did...there has yet to be a release as to what was covered or said...and, if there was any compromise...wonder if donny q's name ever came up in jocular form?...

I think I told you that the Horse hooked up the SONOS system correctly (!) this time...and it sounds absolutely spectacular!...gots things coming out of everywhere...fun stuff...

The NBA...the Nets came back from a huge deficit and beat the Bucks in Brooklyn...I wrote that cuz somebody must give a crap...I don't...Jimmy Crack Corn...

We partied with them Mackles yesterday afternoon, to celebrate the mask free life, as we now know it...how long were we with those masks, anyhow?...16 months?...does that seem right?...

2 days that Southwest Airlines have stranded folk...gosh, we were so lucky...

Think we are bad, the DBacks were coasting for their 1st road win in over a month...gave up 4 in the 8th and lost their 21st straight road game to...this time the SF Giants...see, it could be worse...oh yea, and the Bums opened up Chavez and had like 51,000 fans there...the times they are a changin'...except for the DBacks...

Just read that Chris Paul is OUT for at least 2 weeks...tested positive for Covid I think...c'mon dude, get your shots...what is with this?...how dumb are these athletes?...go down to CVS, bare up your arm and get your inoculation...more...Kawhi is out for game 5 for the Clip Joint...hurt knee...

The heat wave has hit SoCal...but, we have a huge fog set in...wonder if it is out at Torrey, too?...the site of the US Open...go inland, just a bit, and it is sweltering HOT...keep going to the desert, and it's like 117* or so...oh my....

Finally...the prognostication for the Open...the winner has to hit it long and very straight...hmmm...that leaves the likes of Chamboo, DJ, and many of the big boppers out...I like Rahm's chances...ah, he did get his shots, right?...
