The Sultans of Swing



Wouldn't you just know that the Horse would start your weekend with a cadiddlehopper of a phrase
...ah, I think there is no such word...but, well, so be it...it is now in the Horse dictionary...right along with covfefe...donny turned me on to that one...the Sultans of Swing...a song by Dire Straits...in itself a group looking for a path...ha ha...the 'sultan' has many meanings...I think in this case, it means 'king'...but, it is a rock band, so who really knows?...

Pardon moi, but the topic of conversation around these parts is the Padres...and how underachieving they are right now...the worst, and I mean the very WORST...is the new closer that was bartered for...Hader...the long haired hippie dude...he did it again last eve...brought in the 9th, the game tied at 3...faces 3 batters, the minimum for any reliever...walks one, then fields a dribbler to his right, and throws the rock into right field...run one...then the next sultan of swing, homers...down 6-3...and game over...booed off of stage, and the next reliever, got 3 straight outs...good bye, bloke...

Try as he may, the Senator from South Carolina, the dishonorable Lindsey Graham...will indeed have to show up in court in Georgia...so, if he pleads the 5th in all queries...does that mean he is telling us all that he is guilty as ______!...I think the best lines are, like in the Watergate thing of the 70's...'to the best of my recollection'...

A blast from the past...but, do you still use a pencil?...the number 2 kind, that was a must have in school...the Horse always fancied himself with a mechanical one...and spent forever trying to keep the lead in it...and fuggit about the erasers...who didn't like a sharp pencil?...I have one at my desk, and I don't know why...but, I do...it is a Paper Mate wood one...haven't used it...but, dang it looks purty in the what not cup...

Man, lost half my blog due to faulty computer...so, I'll see if I can recall what I wrote...

Ben and JLo are getting married again...for the masses this time...me thinks that this might be a trend...going to go throughout the country, getting married...the sultans of matrimony...

We are getting asked often, if we are going or staying...you know at the home, word travels fast...but I saw this out of Maryland and it sent up red flags...well, flags of different colors...this couple, black professors, were putting their house up for sale...their hood was upper middle, and predominantly white...got an appraisal for an amount that they felt was too low for where they live...then, decided to go another direction...they 'white washed' their house...took down all black people pix, and what might be construed as black art...and got a 2nd appraisal...it was $300,000 more...ahem, we are in a mess, kids...what say you?...

Playing to likes of some 30 straight sell out crowds at Petco Park, the Padres are being mediocre at best...this after trading for some 'quality' players...who are not living up to expectations...especially at closer...now, for the 1st time this season...there are BOOOOOOS echoing throughout the ball yard...they are too good, to be like this...c'mon guys...I mean the players...except at closer, he is not...

2 blokes from the LIV Tour, the Norman Tour, ah, the Sultans Tour, are trying to have their pie and eat the ____, whatever that phrase is....Lefty and DeChamboo, are taking it to the courts, to get to play in some PGA Tour events...ha ha...the case won't be addressed until 2024...go count your cash, dudes...you are banned....

Sure seems like I missed a few others...blame it on the computer, and NOT on me brain...got it...

Where is Tom Brady?...you FF dudes do you take or leave him?

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...
