9/11/01


For those who rank these horrific things...9/11 will be, or is, one of the happenings that WE will always remember...where we were, what we were doing, and then, what to do afterward...right?...equal to when the stock market crashed, JFK was shot, MLK was shot, RFK was shot, Pearl Harbor was bombed...events that seemingly changed the USA...so many queries...how could this happen?...

We had just left off our son at college in Claremont, Cali...were staying in our condo in Sunriver, Oregon...woke up to a drama that seemed unreal...like it wasn't happening...the takeover of passenger planes, with the idea of destroying our country...they used the ones that had the most fuel...just a week earlier, we flew back west from New York...in one similar of those such used...top it off, we canceled our annual flight to Maui for our anniversary...we all just stayed home...and wondered, 'what just happened?'...

Complacency was now gone...and this country awoke with more fervor than it had shown, since WWII...

Moving on...

How about those college games yesterday!...the 'Bama/Texas game was a beaut...as the Tide found a way to win...thought so...who had Marshall beating the Irish AT ND?...and Nebraska losing again...another home loss...HC Frost is toast...the Ducks rebounded, and how...with at 10 touchdown romp...the Bevos won in a donny brook over Fresno...USC started strong and then held on...Kentucky beat Florida...in an upset in me mind...and the biggee from the Pac 12...the Cougs of WSU went into Wisconsin and WON!...lots of parity, kids...

The Bums had a free for all last nite in Petco...game 3 today for the series...we need it bad...er, is that badly?...

My FF team is ready...thing is, I probably won't see much of the games...well, the Red Zone...as we are going to get on out to the hosses...final day for DelMar...gots some tix to cash and it is what I do...

Call this a hunch...and I may be way way out there...but Tom Brady, alias Tom Terrific, is having marital problems...so it is being reported...he just may have football probs, too...as his OLine is not what it has been...he could get beat up...and RETIRE mid-season...to save his body and home life...

Gonna end today with a sad thing...sorry...but, we lost our dog, Sammi, yesterday...too much pain (for all of us) and it was time...17 years of life is amazing for anyone, let alone a pet...she was awesome and will be so missed...daily....we love her...tears of sorrow and joy...peace...

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...
