Throwback Thursday


I wore me old 'Padres Jacket' out to the golf course yesterday...as one bloke chimed in, 'I see you have jumped on the bandwagon'...no, dude, I am wearing this, as this is the old colors....cuz, THAT'S the way they are playing right now...like the old Padres...notice I said 'they' and not 'we'?...got swept in Cubby land...OK, get on home guys...need some home cooking...got to get Jr back out there...and Grisham, too...enuff of this Pham...the Mets are in town....fingers crossed...

Guess that is somehow Throwback related...but does remind me, of when we arrived in San Diego...immediately got half season tix...for the Padres...and screamed with delight, and sometimes anger at our 3B Kooz...man, we were almost good...really...before arriving and living here, I rarely paid any attention to this team...now, it is in my system for good...or bad...or whatever...can recall having to restrain my son from going scizzo, over a play that Kooz did not make...ha ha...one day, we arrived at the park, and the people behind us, had taped a Kooz baseball card to our seat...hilarious!...


Gosh, out of nowhere, I shot an 81 yesterday...one of my partners, shot a 73...I kind of got in the wind stream of his play...only tweaked my achilles once...and it was a doozy...but, was able to continue...iced...and there we go...

One of the worst trades ever in NBA hoops...by the Clippers...picking up the throwback Rondo, for the best 6th man in the game, Sweet Lou...the bench is where Rondo comes from and adds absolutely nuttin...his anger towards Kawhi, after he airmailed the tie attempt...was indicative of what an asshole he is...can I say that?...___hole...is that better?...anyhoo, I have been missing the boat on the Mav's Doncic, he is really special...one last thing...the Dallas coaching is far superior than that of the Clips...in a sport that doesn't have many real coaches...this one is...Rick Carlisle...

Speaking of coaches...Duke's Coach K is calling it quits after this next season...this season...this year...whatever...and his right hand man, will take over...Jon Scheyer...avoiding any nationwide search thang...do you think that this is good?...the Ducks have done this for some time, too...it's a method that simplifies things...?...

Your guy trump has shuttered his blog after 29 days...not enough hits and comments, so he says...or whoever wrote it for him...cofveve...said...geez, I thought he was going to have his own mainstream 'Facebook like' social network...what happened to that idear?...still in the works?...

His (donny q's) friend in Israel, Netanyahu, is also seeing his last days as the leader of that country...could be as soon as today, that he will be replaced...talk about a bizarre setup to govern a place...they have it...does he golf?...

Bob Baffert...for youse who are not into the Horse Racing field...he is the epitome of trainers...but, what he gives his horses, or rubs on them (?)...appear to be illegal substances...and he gets caught...often...his winning horse of the last Kentucky Derby, has been tested twice and found guilty of having it (illegals) in his body...man, if the hoss was dq'd...I'd a had over $500 on the eventual winner...well, Baffert is banned for 2 years in Kentucky...does this sport equate to boxing in any way?...

Oh my, Arizona is preparing for death row executions with gas once used by the Nazis...can't make this shit up...and in South Carolina, YOU have the option to die by the firing squad...yes, kids...these are things that real people have been spending their elected official time on...and not dealing with any suppression of assault rifles...give me a break...hey SC, why not add...death by assault rifle?...

We have been invited to go to Maine and stay in the crisp days of Fall there...which is sounding mighty inviting...the thing I am running into, is the flight there...nothing direct from SD...a total time of 7 and half hours...will my flight pills last that long?...decision time, kids...always wanted to go into the NE part of the USA...

The BEST album of the day...'Carpenters' by the Carpenters...'Rainy Days and Mondays'...'For All We Know'...'Superstar'...yes, this is a must listen to, and get for your vinyl collection...

I leave you with this, June 3, 2021...what the lil wurman made for me (us) yesterday...a 7 layer beauty...

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...
