Be There, or Be Square

Nothing like being a part of the aura of a Beach Boys Concert...ageless people all over the yard...sporting what they had that monikered the famed singing group...or, like us, moseying on over to the merchandise stand to see what's new...lo and behold, the one and only Bruce Johnston was at the booth...with enough time to talk to the lad...mentioning that our son, too, was from his now home of Montecito...got a pick with him and the Boss...what a gentleman...for youse NOT in the know, he is one of them Beach Boys...as we left, a star eyed wurman, asked for his picture, too...in her words, 'Brian, would you pose with us?'...calmly, he replied, 'ma'am, I am Bruce'...it was funny...

Rady was a sell out...peoples everywhere...in the grass, outside of the lot, in boats by the island...grooving...the Boys have this old time sound, that ALL know...and love...will say, the way the concert is arranged for the patrons, it is NOT conducive to rushing the stage...almost like a sit down place of yesteryear...alas, the sound...was great...The Beach Boys still bring it...a fun time had by all...

Not so fun...the Friars...lost again to the Bums...did not see a bit of this, due to the above...it will take time for the new unit to gel...obviously, not ready right NOW for LA (who is?)...but, give the Pads some brewing time...they will get there...especially when Jr re-emerges...have faith, ya'll...

Hanging in sports a bit...the Chargers have caught on in LaLa...dang...was hoping otherwise...however, the Duck QB Justin Herbert, is guiding them out of the dark...I like this, but, hate the owner Spanos...hate, I tell you...

My old colleague and broadcast booth buddy, Mark Gilman, has started up a REAL spot of journalism...with REAL sentences...and REAL in depth talk about sports in the Willamette Valley...I urge you to find his output on Facebook...'he has a purty face for the radio'...

This delayed trade for Brittney Griner and the teacher...by the Russians...it was rumored that they wanted a 2 for 2 trade...OK, we will add donny to the mix...

Will Zalatoris...you know this dude?...a pro golfer...that dumped his caddie in mid tournament...'they were too close'...what on earth does that mean?...

The hoss races have to figure in sometime this week...

On again, off again...to list or not to list...spent another day of discussions...thing is...until we see properties that we could get into, it is a gamble to sell...at least that's the angle now...it could all change on a dime...

The KFam has been on the tele for 20 seasons?...is that why it is called the Boob Tube?...never watched a minute of this trash...

Im, Huh, and Kim are leading the Wyndham Championship as of this am...what?...Wu is 4th and Aphibarnrat is 5th...there you go...think the Asians aren't doing the same to the guys as they are doing to the gals in golf?...domination...congrats to them and all their hard work and prep...

Time for a swim and some fun fun fun...
