MLK Day

With the lack of diversity talk that came out of the mouth of trump...and still rages on, per his babble at his latest rally in Arizona...how the whites are treated unfairly...oh my...we need to step up and do our best at equating life for all...not tearing it down...nothing better than to honor he who tried to do just that...Martin Luther King...a perfect reminder for us all...how far we have come, in this country....let us not go backwards...

The NFL trifecta yesterday...was kind of the way I saw it...the two, Bucs and Chiefs, had a fairly dominating day at the gridiron...and the middle game, was a slugfest...again, controversy with the officiating...still, I have no idea what is holding and what is not...do the striped shirts guys and gals know?...as the 49ers hung on for a huge win...

Saw some disturbing video of a couple of things, to do with that venue in, well, outside of Dallas...the gates opened, and the fans ran in like it was closing day at the local Best Buy...listen, kids, when we were there I marveled at how poorly the place was constructed...some hallways were just a few feet wide...and lawdy...after the game was over...and the Cowboys lost...the things that the fans threw at the players and refs as they tried to exit the field...was a total embarrassment to the team, city, and the NFL...

One more game tonight...the last of the wild card drama...yes, this will be a beaut...the Cards at the Rams...wonder who will have the most fans there in LA?...I must guess the outcome...Rams in a stunner...one more thing about that new stadium and it's new inhabitants...the Rams and the Chargers...for the Rams leaving St Louis there is a huge payment going back to that city for the departure...$750 million?...something like that...and the rumor is, that San Diego is going to court to get the same thing out of Spanos and his Charger franchise...we shall see...hate Spanos...

Other...

Rules...as we ventured into an area with extreme trepidation...IKEA...you know, the Covid and all...EVERYONE there had a mask on...everyone!...spacing was a bit of a problem...OK...we have rules in our condo...in all meeting areas, masks must be worn...and for the most part, people abide by them...however, last nite we viewed a group of people NOT!...blatantly doing a gathering, I will assume, that the rules did not apply to them...or so they thought...as, what rules?...

Yes, we have moved on from Longmire, reluctantly...now, into the movies...flicks...saw one from Apple TV, that actually used the Dolby Atmos sound feature...which, I may add, is DYN-O-MITE!...sounds coming from everywhere...cool...

The bloke who held the hostages in a synagogue in Dallas...killed by a swat team, specially designed for this sort of thing...Hostage Rescue Team...the guy was Brit national...trying to get a trade for a held female terrorist...nope...he got nothing, but his life over...

Chief Donny...how close to the Longmire Sheriff Department are you?...number of deputies and all...you ever think of going to a bigger city?...

I have always thought about this...for a guy who preached non-violence...MLK...to get shot and killed, seemed like an unjust way of death...hmmm, that sounded awkward...is there such a path for an 'eye for an eye' in life, and death?...does religion enter in here somewhere?...for his killer did not deserve to live another day on this earth...or, am I wrong?...

Have the same thoughts for the killer of RFK, Sirhan Sirhan...who still lives...in prison, and wants to get out...or the killer of John Lennon, he still lives...am I wrong?...

I must remind you of the latest word...which I have told you about 6 months ago...'WOKE'...is an English adjective meaning 'alert to racial prejudice and discrimination'...pay attention to how it used, especially in the next few days...

OK, I leave you with this..."it is not a lie, if you believe it"...George Costanza...
