I Thought You Ought To Know

Today the Horse is going to take you down a different path than usual...am going to highlight 6 items that caught my eyes...earth shattering?...NO, but a marginal diversion from my normal...bear with me, as I have limitations...and, will not try to bore you with some stuff...

1.  Hot mikes...when one speaks to crowds, over the public address system...using a microphone, things occasionally happen...like you think the mike is off, and it is not...how many times have YOU wanted to say how YOU really feel...but, the smarts in your system, takes over and you just think them...or mutter what you REALLY feel...it happened to Prez B...as he was responding to a Fox News bloke...what he thought was under his breath, "You stupid son of a bitch"...oh my, major guffaw...BY A PREZ!...out of character, I think...I really don't know...I will not do any comparison to what donny would have done, as I would have expected it...Biden has since apologized to the news dude...and we have this to ponder...is he really stupid?...

2.  Retirement...when do you say enough is enough?...such is the case of the legendary QB of the NFL. Tom 'Terrific' Brady...when asked, he said that it may be a family decision...really, when is it time to say that 'I have done this job long enough?'...move on to another patch in my lifetime...44 years of age...taking brutal hits by monstrous dudes...but, he loves what he does...if it were up to him, he would go another year...is it up to him?...the query...

3.  Hirings...kind of the opposite of number 2...there are still 8 head coach openings in the NFL...with lots of rumors about the New Orleans job, being vacant, too...Payton may get the axe, the axe...if so, he would immediately get one of the 8 I mentioned...he is that good...so, what is the hang up?...gots to figure the teams, er franchises, are being deliberate to make sure they interview minorities...well, no Native Americans...but, blacks, for sure...or as Mitch calls them, African Americans...who are different from Americans...right, Mitch?...I digress...nothing ever surprises me on this level of business...

4.  Masks, masking, vaccinations, anti-vaccers...the wonder in me went deeper...as to numbers of white evangelists who are actually vaccinated for the Covid 19...are we dealing with a problem that can't be solved?...the studies have at it 30-40% who are not...trusting in God to protect them...times have altered those numbers a bit...skewed them...but, it is still significant who won't get the shots...and the masks...the only reason that they would wear then, is cuz they have to...one more, non related thing...the masks themselves...what truly does protect you?...'they' are saying the cloth ones don't...shoot, I am thinking that if you are inoculated, who are YOU protecting?...regardless of what mask you wear...

5.  Doors...what?...locked doors...to the outside of the decks, on a high rise...why oh why?...to protect us from Spiderman?...so, we have a busted spring on the lock of the door going to one of our decks...TG, we have no one outside on it...of course, $$$$...he we go, calling a locksmith...to unlock the bloody door...and then...we are going to remove all said locks...so this will not happen ever again...is there a day that everything runs absolutely smoothly?...

6.  Flash Frozen...well, I have to have one that tickles your taste buds...are you a fish monger?...then, you know all about this...fish caught, then flash frozen...perfect filets of...halibut or cod...perhaps, others...but we have tried and tasted those two...and the results?...fantastic...got them from Costco...the halibut is about double the price of the cod...not breaded, mind you...that part is up to the individual cooker...we then coat 'em with Panko...cook and fry them in olive oil...I am very a very picky fish eater, and these are spectacular!...trust the Horse...

OK, then, these are the 6 things I thought you ought to know for today...'ought'...shouldn't that be ot?...why do the English make the language so hard?...guess that is why the millennials use the LOL, BTW, and that sort of stuff...on their texts and tele...try this on for size...things u ot to no...Tuesday, January 25, 2022...
