Make Mine a Double

Image
Sometimes it takes a bit more, to get thru the day, right? ...especially if the Horse flies...which he is not right now...or, for the foreseeable future.. .now I am not suggesting that you all start drowning yourself in the booze ...or whatever floats your fancy...perhaps, TWO books will suffice...or TWO shots of Mocha in your coffee drink...or TWO triple chocolate donuts...ah, maybe TWO ice cubes in your Chard...oops, back to the liquor, please accept my apology... Speaking of books ...you have read 'Peril' , right?... the docu of the final days of trump and his regime in the White House, where he squatted for 4 years ...would love to hear the workers there, talk about what a rat he was....ah, sorry...I mean, a bully...wait, what?...no, just how he treated the worker bees...did not see a lineup of them when he departed...crying...like most every other president (gulp)...even Nixon had that... You do know that I have said this many times before...but, why not now again?... if ...

You WIN 'A Brand NEW Car!'

Image
The words that come out of the host of the infamous game show 'The Price is Right' ...those were from originally, Bob Barker, and now...Drew Carey ...these wondrous bellows 'You win a brand NEW CAR!' ...actually, it was neither of them... the words came from Johnny Olson, and then, Rod Roddy ...(real name?)....not sure who does that now...but, that's not the point, kids...YOU WON A CAR!... OK, let's do this another way ... Crazy Horse has always wondered what China (and Russia) does to combat the Covid 19 virus ...ah, and it's variants...yea, donny said it was their fault in the 1st place...do they use Moderna, Pfizer, or J&J?...or have their own?...pharmaceutical company?...I still dunno...they do have their own phones and company...which is renown for it's strength everywhere but in the USA, Huawei ...there are others... The car...do they use ours, Japan's, Germany's, England's, South Korea's?...ah? ...looks like they are doing just...

A Year Later

Image
In the past 100 years of the existence of the United States of America...there have been 3 known attacks on this great country ... Pearl Harbor, New York City + Pentagon (9/11), and the Capitol ... the last, a YEAR ago ...call it what you want...an insurrection, a mob hit (of sorts), or in reality, an attempted coup ...you forevers, will not want to read on... for months of planning, by the regime in power...trying in vain to regain the office of the presidency...not by the vote of the people, but by bullying the VP Pence...then, by overthrowing the Congressional in this horrific show of strength ...all the while, trump enjoyed what he saw and did NOTHING! ...until the vagrants had entered the hallowed halls of the building...the offices of the elected officials...and then, onto the Congressional floor... It will always be etched in my mind, the power of a mob ...but more than that, at the doorstep of our very own ruling body...with our leaders in it...hiding for their very own safety....

And Your Bird Can Sing

It has been said, that in their heyday, the Beatles could read a newspaper (what's that?), take a look around them, and watch the telly...and come up with ideas for songs ...many of the hits from Sgt. Pepper were done just like that...who knows about the 'White Album' ...as they got into the 'doobs'...they did have pent up emotions that came out, too...as most of us from that era, dug whatever they released...actually, could hardly wait for their next album...and NOBODY, I mean NOBODY, covered songs of the past like they did ...' Twist and Shout'. .. For no reason at all, it reminded me of the infamous Chuck Berry ...who was talented galore...but, a strange cat for sure...we saw him in concert and were dumbfounded... as he played 5 songs, then left the stage ...really...who knows why...but, the lights came on...we all booed...and that was that... I guess I am starting with music today ...as we were preparing the din din last eve... we asked Siri for some J...

Good Morning

Image
I mean, really GOOD MORNING! ... who gets up at 4:20 am? ...you are looking at him...in bed at 9...so, guess that is OK.. .tossin and a turnin ...oh well, up now, make the day start off right...you don't need to hear my complaining...you want the good word...I get that...speaking of not so good words... There is this list, compiled by Lake Superior State University ...like as a joke... that bans phrases, not words for the year...2022 ...they have quite the system to determine the chosen ones...the  LSSU English Department is the judge and jury...here we go...unfortunately, the Horse uses some of these... 1.  wait, what?  2. No worries.  3. At the end of the day  4. That being said  5. Asking for a friend  6. Circle back  7. Deep dive  8. New normal  9. You're on mute  10. Supply chain Well, I dunno...seems like this U has gone a bit uppity, don't you think? ...so many phrases are used in the texts and emails one uses...to simplify t...

Moon River

Image
I think way back in my blog history, this was a headline ... 'Moon River' ...maybe not...after 13 or so years...I can't recall all of them...ah, no duh...picking and choosing what I want to share with you...can be extremely fun...I dig it...but don't want to be repetitive... this song, was a beauty by the great singer Andy Williams ...for sure, others sang it, too... it was originally sung by Audrey Hepburn ...in a flick 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' ... lyrics by Johny Mercer and composed by the awesome Henry Mancini ...always wondered if that was really her voice...it was... Gonna name just a few that covered it after her ....this list is unbelievable...to note that it was such a great song... Jerry Butler, Jane Morgan, The Lennon Sisters, Jay and the Americans, The Four Lads, Johnny Crawford, Perry Como, Bobby Rydell, Ben E. King, Ann-Margret, Anita Bryant, Dick and Deedee, Eydie Gorme, Pat Boone, Connie Francis, The Four Freshmen, Nancy Wilson, Patti Page, ...

25 Things BAD For You

Image
This rather attractive headline caught me eye ...can't recall the source, but it is written, so it must be the truth... the top 25 things that are the most unhealthy in the super...like, market ...talk about opening a can of worms...there are thangs all over the place that figure under that headline...but, they said the TOP 25...for clarity, the WORST 25 would have been better...somehow, the donut didn't make the list...perhaps, they meant the most surprising 25...I dunno... The reliability of the article came under scrutiny right away, as the numbering system started at 35 ...thus, they listed the worst 35 instead of 25...guess the first 10 mentioned, er listed, are not that bad...or not as bad as...the TOP 25...er, WORST...here's the deal... I eat many of the items on the list...this is not a good thing...salad dressing, chips, double stuff Oreos, cereals, balloon bread, pasta, packaged Mac and cheese, and Diet Coke...the items continue on... OK, I can change...really c...
