The Unmasking

Today is the day that the state of Cali gets the decree that we have all been waiting for...back to normal...what?...June 15...throw away the mask!...did you hear that?...gosh, sounds so wonderful...but NO!...there are still times that it is needed...so, the inevitable 'BONFIRE' of mask burning, has to be put on hold...even in our condo building, it may be still needed...you confused?...right, so am I...

Out at the golf course in Singing Hills...the mask is gone...freedom has rung out...however, I am avoiding the issue...

What % of the peops have had their inoculations of the Covid 19 vaccinations?...I guess 'they' are saying enough of them...try this on for size, everyone WE KNOW has had their shots...

We shall wait for whatever comes down...

Breaking news out of ...well, more crap that trump tried to do...to sway the lost election...there have been emails recovered that show he and his cronies were using the Fed Judicial System to get the vote overturned...duh...Billy Barr....what a piece...the video clip of him being questioned by then Sen Kamala Harris to Barr..."Has the president (trump) or anyone at the White House ever asked or suggested that you open an investigation of anyone?"...Billy responded with "Um...the president or anyone else....can you repeat the question?"...of course, he didn't answer the Q...

On the other hand, the new Prez B...has settled in quite nicely with the G7 leaders...thankfully...57% of Americans agree with the new direction...what was trump in this area?...like 17% or so...if the Horse was queried, it would have been 0%...nada zilch zero...about donny q...

Speaking of near zero...there must be holes in the bats of our mighty (?) Padres...barely able to muster up hits, thus runs...against purnt near everyone they face....egads...in the past, and yes, quite often...the blame (there has to be blame) is put on the hitting coach...NOBODY fires their hitting coach more than San Diego does...if you ask me...and aren't you?...I'd hire a psychologist coach...one more thought, where is Kooz?...maybe we could use him as a DH when we play the AL teams...

YMCA...is what basketball has turned into...what is this?...and why do the teams need so many coaches?...they run no plays...they play no defense...they often have no clue about clock management...what do all these coaches on the sideline do?...hardly any of them have note pads...they just stare out at the 'play'...and when they have time outs...the coaches go out to the middle of the floor...stare at one another...the bloody TV extended time out...and then the head coach goes in to meet with the players "we need to rebound better"...perfect...what else can he say?...run play number 1?...ah, coach, we have no plays..."OK, get the ball to KD and get out of the way"...

Oh no...here we go again...when in Vegas...we went to the coffee shop at the Mirage...the Roasted Bean, something like that...and they served Starbucks 'Pike Place' coffee...as their regular...gosh, it was so good...does not taste the same from the K cup...just saying...I'm getting the itch...again...

The SONOS replacement Arc has arrived...and I set it up...OK, the sound is dynamite...took a bit of luck to connect the sub and the surround speakers...but the Horse did it...I ain't no foo...well, that is debatable...

OMG!...just in...the 2nd mass shooting in 4 days in Chicago...at least 7 people, ie a child, injured...Congress, are you hearing this?...

Perhaps, the reason that the mighty (?) Padres are so feeble at the plate right now...is that the pitchers they are facing are all 'doctoring' the beisbol...OK, MLB is working on the solution...if found doing so, the offenders will get 10 day suspensions...sounds bad, but that is two starts for the pitchers...

The US Open is out at Torrey Pines this week...not only is it the longest bloody course in the world (well, it is loooong) and now....the rough has been let go...expect even par to win it...and lots of cussing...

This...is beyond belief...in Georgia...a customer who argued about wearing a mask...shot and killed the cashier, and wounded a deputy sheriff, working off duty at a supermarket....

The DBacks have lost 20 consecutive road games in MLB...when do they come to SD?...we need them and how...

Ben and Jen, or is that Jen and Ben, have been seen kissing...hey, Arod, you are one and done...now...be patient, she may return...say what?...

So...a star runner...Shelby Houlihan...(Hoolihan?)...the American record holder for the 1,500 and 5,000 meters....tested positive for roids...and is banned for 4 years...she said she got it from a pork burrito...ah, OK...really?...

We were lucky, as it turned out...as Southwest Airlines grounded all their planes on Monday, another awful computer glitch...as we flew back on Sunday...we had that happen to us, once in Vegas a few years back...and we rented a car and drove back...

I leave you with this, on this potential maskless Tuesday...only in Vegas...we walked by a newly married couple (ah, she had her wedding dress on) waiting in line...at a deli, to get in...so romantic, their first meal since being hitched...a reuben...
