The Thrill of Victory, the Agony of Defeat...




ABC's Jim McKay, his line at the start of the Wide World of Sports..."The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat"...gosh, the Horse watched that show most every time it came on...or so it seemed...well, it applied to the Russian 15 yr old ice skater...who has been the talk of the Winter Olympics...as early this am, our time...she fell multiple times and ended in 4th...which makes the doping part of it all, a sad commentary...

The thrills...man, did watch 2 hoop games that blew me away...my hated Lakers won, over the not so Jazz...in LaLa, as Utah blew a huge lead...and LeBron took over in the 4th...he can do this...perhaps, his 37 years of age dictates when to play and when to cruise...he was tough...and then...the Warriors lost again...at home...to the Nuggets...as the big guy from Denver was way toooooo much for GS...Nikola Jokic...was so dominant, that it was like 5 guys were trying to stop him...really...

Must add the Blazers won again...golly, they do play hard and it's 4 in a row...at Memphis...

OK, back to the Ukraine...was reading an article about the Russian need for the area...according to this reporter, it is not as easy as a need for energy...could be more like...Putin wants to re-establish the USSR...bring back into Russia's fold, what they lost in the Cold War...the answers are not clear, just more speculation...

Prez Biden expects that Russia will invade the Ukraine in the next several days....lord, please, no 'shock and awe'...

I can't make this up...Britney...yes, Britney Spears...says she is healing and ready to "take life by the balls"....what on earth does that mean?...is there some form of metaphor there?...

Not healing, is the infamous Tiger Woods...who a year ago, was involved in a massive car crash...and his body has yet to cure...he is hosting the T in LaLa this week...

Am deeply into the book written by the pathologist Cyril Wecht...on the assassination of JFK...if true, the amount of times that our Prez got shot was more than what the Warren Commission told us...'The JFK Assassination Dissected'...read it and judge for yourself...

OK, Snooki, you who disagree with moi, wholeheartedly on this...how on earth did Oswald, with little or no money, travel all over the bloody World...Germany, Russia, England, USA, Mexico, and live in multiple sites...paying with what?....never working for more than a week anywhere...very intriguing...or, very very sad...and how did the FBI know all about him, and do nothing?...or did they?...

Let's just say...you are a pro golfer...and this company comes along and asks you to join their new, goshfangled multi-bucked tour...however, NOT IN THE USA, and the stipend to join...they give YOU $30 million bucks!...would you do it?...rumor has it, Lefty said yes, as did a couple of Euros...and DeChamboo is strongly considering...did I see they wanted 30 blokes?...

You have by now heard of the death of Bob Saget...blows to the head that caused the death...speculation that it was due to the headboard...ah ha...more than one blow, it is rumored...so he got so distraught, that he kept banging his head on the headboard over and over?...really?...something smells to me...

Nobody guessed the song yesterday....it was Nelly Furtado...will try one more...a line from a song...'I'm gonna keep drinking', until I'm petrified'...no cheatin'...no google...just a guess...winner gets a signed MAGA cap...ah, just kidding...I am keeping that...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

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...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
