Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio?




Yea, so I am back to work...this is what a retiree says...if he or she has a plan for the day
...mine is the Blog...and the golf...this is what the Horse calls WORK!...now I know many of you still have the 8 to 5 REAL job to do...us heathens have to hang our harness on something...I read, lots...watch and listen, too...ah, not just sports, but the politics...and the everyday flim flam that occurs...what the social influencers are influencing...so, I try to make this Blog interesting to all...'try'...

Watched a flick that was directed by Clint Eastwood...you know the 'Good, Bad, and Ugly' dude...about part of WWII, from the Japanese side of things...man, it did get me...I couldn't not watch it...'Letters from Iwo Jima'...a 2006 made film...don't know how this slid by me for this long...it was compelling...it was hurtful...it was thought provoking...War is Hell, and the leaders of people make it so...you MUST find it and judge for yourself...

The talk from most of my 23 sources....is the takeover. er buy out of Twitter...by Elon Musk...he did...he started firing people left and right...ah, just like what Fonny would do...his mentor?...as we wait to see the daily changes to the social media site...will he charge for the use of it?...will he bring Fonny back on?...will it become a right wing sounding board?...so, we wait and see...

The Horse did indeed get his hairs cut...as the barber asked 'how do you want it cut?'...my response was simple and direct...'Fix me'...she laughed and did her job...now, I gots no hair...I sure like the feel of it...don't know how you ladies do it, and you long hair hippie dudes...drove me CRAZY!...

Ladies...why do you prefer the white wine?...Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio...why?...seldom does a lady order red...which brings me to a new series to us...that we just started...'The Alaska Daily'...found it on HULU...and the lead lady character, drinks the red...very interesting...

We got our robot...and as Coach Chuck recommended, we did name it...not suitable for print, tho...and it did it's thang...man, that is really weird...and she went all over and then...went back to it's home...it's dock...how the heck?...I need that for when I have one or two too many...some homing device in my brain...

In the NFL, the bizarre is happening to Tom Terrific Brady...he is losing...now 3 in a row...some are saying his age...some are saying the O...listen, kids...they lost valuable and strong O line blokes...in the off season...don't care how good a QB you are, if you have an inferior line...there is NO CHANCE!...he knows it...they know it...and the opponent knows it...he needs a flak jacket...if he stays...

This ought to make you enraged...Exxon Mobil and Chevron...the largest US oil companies...reported a 4th consecutive quarter of ROBUST profits...as WE pay lots more...who are they lobbying?...

The World Series FINALLY starts today...I almost thought it was already over...in Texas...who ya got?...Phillies or Astros?...pulling for the team that beat us, them Philadelphia dudes...

Might as well throw out some football pix...just for fun...Florida at Georgia (I thought it was to be the Vols)...no match...UO at Cal...same...THE Ohio St at Penn St...same...Mich St at Mich...same...no upsets here, kids...

A break in at Speaker Pelosi's house in SF...and the husband was attacked...the assailant is in custody...more info to come...

C'mon people...PEACE!

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...
