Choices Choices

Uh oh, the Horse was a thinking again ...way deep...we, the people, have CHOICES to make, most every single day...as general, as to VOTE for a Democrat or a Republican...why do we have but 2 to pick from?...you go to your local Costco...they have already limited your CHOICES to two of most everything...at the flower stand, boxed or unboxed?...yea, so there are more of the 'so many CHOICES ' times, that we, you, or I, just stare at all that are available... Looking at a 'food board' ...standing in line...as others are waiting for you to decide...how many of you just freeze up?...can not make up your mind.. .'they are all so good' ...just try a coffee drive up window.. .'an American, double shot, with cream, and extra ice' ...right...do all cars that suggest that you use ethyl, can they function with the mid range one?...or, the blasphemy of it all, regular?... Milk...non fat, 2%, fatty milk...and what the hell is organic milk? ...do these cows have spec...

NFT's...

This whole business of anagrams ...that WE are supposed to know what the heck they are referring to... POTUS, SCOTUS, BIA, MIA, IRS, ISIS, the list goes on and on ...out of the darkness of the shades of a newspaper (what is that?)...comes this newbie... NFT's ...bet you a quid you DON'T know what that stands for... Not for Today? ...ha ha... Never Forget trump? ...as bizarre...Non Forwarded Texts?...c'mon...it is this... Non-fungible tokens ...Crypto...kind of... A non-fungible token is a one of a kind digital asset that belongs to you and you only ...???... The most popular NFT's are artwork and music...but can include videos and even tweets. ..what?...these items can be bought or sold via the cryptocurrency, online...sound a bit scary and full of holes to you?...yea, me too....did I answer this Q?...imagine buying a painting, on the web net, mind you...using your accumulated bitcoins...what is there to protect you that the bloody thang is fake?... Let's see if I h...

Wring Around the Collar

Image
Wring?...I mean, ring...around the collar. ..we do wear collared shirts these days, right?...and some say to wring them out after washing, and not drying 'em in the machine....but, to get the ring around the collar off, you need to wash them in...bleach added soap...who came up with 2 spellings of the same word?...the English, of course...ah, well, they are different words...hmmm, there-their...site-sight...scents-sense... these are called homonyms...and THAT will be your English tutoring for the day...you are welcome... Of course, donny has his own ring...not many have to deal with orange around the collar, now do they? Nothing finer than watching the LaLa Lakers combust ...they were hosting the Milwaukee Bucks...and got DRILLED...down by 20+ most of the game...so fine to see the best in the biz, Giannis Antetokounmpo , ah,  the Greek freak , dominate the Lebron/AD mismatch...the Lakers even tried doubling him in the 2nd half to no avail...as the Westbrook drama continues...can...

Rock Steady

Image
The weather turned absolutely gorgeous...81* out at Singing Hills, yesterday ...in El Cajon... sun so fine, that on the way home, the top was down on the Beetle ...some days are just better than others...this one, sublime...the forecasters say we are in for a week of this...are you thinking like I am?...the pool, kids, to the pool...lay out and 'noodle time' in the agua...the ear buds in and some tunes galore.....how about 'Rock Steady?' ...you know who sang this?...bet you a quid you don't...the Whispers...released in '87...but the one who really got the notoriety for it...was Aretha... The 9 head coaching spots have been filled in the NFL ...two black coaches were indeed hired... Lovie Smith for the Texans, and Mike McDaniel for the Dolphins ...the latter, physically hard to tell, as his dad is black...so there we go, 3 minorities in the league as head coach...in a work place of 57.5% black...you do the math...we have a long ways to go, when it comes to owner...

Sleep

Image
Not sure how it happened, but the Horse finally got some much needed SLEEP last eve...woke up at 6:10, which is a record for 2022...we are keeping historic moments, right?...call it my New Year's resolution...of course, that means that I am writing briefly... What on earth was that NFL Pro Bowl game?...touch for a tackle?...bizarre way of showing off the best in the biz...this is what it's like in the high schools 7 man game in the summer...just why were the lineman there, anyhoo?...might as well used flags...perfectly awful... Tom Hoge...won his 1st PGA title at Pebble Beach...he hit some doozies, as the runner-up, Jordan Spieth, did not...good on him...as his whole golfing world now opens up...the Masters, and a 3 yr exemption...yowser... 60 Minutes...CBS...ran 3 interesting segments...one on the lack of $ for the correction in military vehicles...not used in combat, mind you...some Congressional peops are blocking the dough...the 2nd was the lack of nurses in the health biz....

What Else Do You Need?

Image
'Give me proof...I need proof' ...so says many that still follow the orange...and then the blockbuster confession of the former Vice President of the United States of American, Mike Pence , telling THE WORLD... ' that his boss, Prez trump, asked him to overturn the election' ...that election that the people voted on...and he said NO, that he could not do that... you want your proof, what more is warranted? ... WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED! ...well, more?... the sabotage of the electorates?...the confiscation of the voting machines?...the telephone calls to the states to find more votes?...the staging of a coup?... The most egregious use of power that this one human has tried to do in the history of our presidency ...and yet, there are some who still follow the bloke...amazing...this is YOUR leader?...c'mon... As I have been saying to you for some time ...that imminent, was not so...but, a high probability...that the Russians will invade the Ukraine ...the military buildup...
