Hello, It's Me


Why not start with one of my fav songs of the early 70's...by Todd Rundgren...'Hello, It's Me'...I've thought about us for a long long time...you might know him from his hit 'I Saw the Light'...or, maybe you just weren't hip in that time period...and don't even know the bloke...that's OK...these were two of his best, from the incredible 'Something/Anything' vinyl of '72...not kidding ya, try to find it...it's worth the effort...trust the Horse...

I am trying to figure the reasoning for the movement from the PGA Tour to the Saudi one...two more have signed on...DeChamboo and the oh so not likable Patrick Reed...of course, the $...but the leader and spokesperson for it, Greg Norman...is an arse...funded from Saudi Arabian money?...try their stance on equality on for size...yea, I know it's just golf...but, aren't all these guys who have moved to it, can't compete on the PGA Tour anymore...at least win?...I guess it is like a step after the PGA Tour, and before the Senior Tour...hmmm...hasta la vista, baby...

The Primaries around the country...nothing that changed the landscape...perhaps, in SF, where there was definite lack of confidence vote for their DA...

Speaking of lack of confidence...the Angels of Anaheim...cocooned in a 12 game losing streak...figured it out why...fired their manager, Joe Maddon...had to be him...yes, I am the one, that says...there is less coaching in that sport than any of them...change a pitcher...juggle the lineup...shift on D...bunt...ah, what else?...yell at the ump...yea, it was Joe's fault...

The Padres turned it around, with a convincing 7-0 shutout of them Mets...Yu was spot on...and for kickers, we finally got Adrian Morejon back from the IR, and he pitched the last 2 innings, quite nicely, thank you...

Boz...simply amazing...still...the nite was perfect...he had a great time, with his vocals...worth the trip to see him perform, as always...and Dude, Ruth asked about ya...

When we returned back to the home...we were greeted with this horrific sight...our kitchen was all barricaded...there was a leak from above...and one thing that makes this vertical living building shake...is the possibility of a leak...water leak...so, for the next set of days, there will be a hole cut out of our ceiling...already done...a tent around the kitchen, to dry it out, in the process...a plumber to replace a pipe...today?...then another company to redo the ceiling...not yet...and finally, some company to repaint the ceiling...FOUR letter word...


Game 3 (finally) for the NBA...Golden St in Boston...the Celtics are favored by3.5...gosh, it all depends on two things...which team is hitting the 3 ball...and if Draymond Green doesn't get tossed....well, add number 3...if Scott Foster is reffing...

About the era of Todd Rundgren, was the dynamic duo of Seals and Crofts...'Summer Breeze'...well, one of them, Jim Seals, just past at the age of 80...wish I had better news...well, Dash Crofts is still alive...

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...

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.....

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
