A Compound

Have you ever dreamed of living in a COMPOUND?...like the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port...as an example...nowadays, there are many rich tycoons who live in 'em...lord, like at how rich the sports stars are...they must have compounds...the famous cuz they are famous KFam, do they have a compound?...what constitutes a compound anyhoo?...is it like at least 2 different, er, separate structures?...the Hearst Castle, must be a compound...ever been there?...monstrous and gorgeous...back in the late 60's, there were hippie compounds...some old time Mormon communities, where they had multiple wives...that was a compound, right?...has trump ever had one?...in the show Poldark, Turo has to be a compound...yea, no, I have never liked the idear of living in a compound...one house be enough for moi...

Trading...not in the beisbol league right now...but with the Russians for Britney Griner and one other (Paul Whelan)...for a Russian spy...wonder if we have to sweeten the deal, and give them part of....well...country biz at it's worst...

You following the shrinkage of the Lake Meade, via Vegas?...another body has turned up...ah, you thinking what I am?...the Mob?...convenient drop zone in the past...not anymore...

This Norman Tour is swallowing up all the pros who are past their prime...Bubba next...so what happens to the blokes who were in it, and are squeezed out?...they got their sign up dough, and now...?...seems to me, that the money will shrink (see above) and these guys will count their $...if they got it up front...hey, the next event that this group has is in, er on, a trump golf site...and donny is in a pro-am with some of the guys...can they televise just that?...ha ha...

Complaint time...the Friars keep trotting out a guy, who doesn't have what it takes as a closer...blown 7 save opportunities, and has been figured out by the league...top it off, he has lost his confidence...no duh...but, for some reason, the management can't figure this out...hello!...get your act together brain trust...

Well, this is phase one for the blog...today...this am at 2:30...gonna sleep and finish this up, later...

It is now later...6:45 am...thus, I did get some sleep...can't recall the last night, that I got 7-8 straight hours of shut eye...thank you, Lady Samantha...

Did I dream it, or did I read that the Padres are addressing their closer situation?...no duh...

So, how is your nest egg doing?...your 401 K...the aftershock of the Covid...we spend little time checking it out...I don't think we have made any moves in the past year...thus, we try to put it out of our minds, and se la vi...normally we get calls from our money man, JJ...but nuttin...so we think it is the thing to do, too...nuttin...

Lighten up a bit, Horse...can you name some of the best doggone instrumental hit songs?...try...'Tequilla'...'Peter Gunn'...'Sleep Walk'...'Strangers on the Shore'...'Rebel Rouser'...'Green Onions'...'Wipe Out'...'Soulful Strut'...'Gonna Fly Now'...'Rock and Roll, Part 2'...'A Taste of Honey'...'The Happy Organ'...'Theme from a Summer Place'...'Wonderland by Night'...'The Stripper'...'Walk Don't Run'...'In the Mood'...'Soul Finger'...'The Hustle'...'Hocus Pocus'...and my favorite of all...by Bent Fabric and His Piano, 'Alley Cat'...what did I leave out?...

This gem outta the Washington Post...not from the Horse, mind you..."Our research suggests that trump appeals more to men who are secretly insecure about their manhood"...analysis by Eric Knowles (no relation to Greg) and Sarah DiMuccio...can't make this stuff up...pardon moi...

Let's be perfectly honest...to play in the NFL, you have to be a special breed of cat...you will get busted up and do need 9 lives...

OK, you REPUBLICANS tell me why you did this?...the Senate BLOCKED a bill that expanded access to VA healthcare and disability benefits for VETERANS exposed to toxins during their military service...55-42, needing 60 votes...the Repubs BLOCKED it...why?...on this good green earth, would YOU?...

Techy stuff...in my innocuous way of learning ya...there is this dude, some random one...who questions most of us who owneth an iPhone...that they are made so well, that a case surrounding the jewel is NOT NEEDED...that all us heathens put one on for 'beauty' and not for functionality...that the phone itself is pretty enough...strong enough...why else would you choose a color for it, when you purchased it?...YOU are ruining the cell piece of delight, that it is, as is...

                                    And you thought I was just a pretty face...
