CRAZY HORSE

There is little more than 'have mercy' ...as the orders of Putin have been ongoing and devastating... conquering the land of Ukraine...at all costs, apparently ...as the battle is now 'in the streets of Kyiv' ...we watch in horror, as the people defend themselves as best they can...a very sad day for mankind...leaders, representing themselves...sending out their pawns to do the work... The Ukrainian people are defiant ...for the first time I heard other commentary on this struggle ...that the Ukraines will bond forever as vigilantes ... that Putin will not squat on the land, but will setup a satellite government, dictated by him ...and him alone...does this ever work?... Unfortunately, my fears are that he is not through ...it will give him more and more false confidence that he can do the same elsewhere...which he will try... yes, at some point there will be OTHERS confronting his pawns ...MY HOPE, is that his own government will seek and destroy him...that they wil...

The onslaught of the people of the Ukraine...the pawns...by the pawns of the evil dictator, Putin...continues on this morning, as I write...the bombardment of the shells on the capitol city of Kiev...as the rapid movement of his troops...may take over the city by the end of the day...in his relentless need for power...of power...by power...while his very own people in Moscow and St Petersburg are walking the streets in PROTEST of his actions...of WAR...risking their own lives in the process...this is the will of the people or the will of the dictator?... Kyiv?...whatever the spelling...as we watch in horror the destruction of land and man...by the orders of a madman, hungered by the greed of notoriety, and the will of fear...no, donny, this is not a trait of a smart and cunning leader...but that of a brutal dictator...who brutalizes and intimidates... Sanctions...I wondered out loud of the effectiveness of them...as the Russian Stock Market tumbled 33% yesterday...making the elite peop...

My fears are here...Russia has invaded the Ukraine...and we are in WAR yet again...albeit not hand to hand, in the US...not yet...but Putin is headstrong into re-establishing the USSR...what else can it be?...'smart and savvy'...so says the idiot commentary of trump...tell that to the thousands, er millions, of Ukrainians ....running for their lives...pawns...as leadership controls the common man...again... Sanctions...not exactly sure how this works...or hampers the Russians...in their daily lives...I guess that is all we have to do...encapsulate the country as best we can... I have been using the 'imminent' word for a couple of weeks now...it is now done...as we watch and feel the pain that people are going through...this imbecilic ideology that leaders, bad leaders, have to rule....their area, then someone else's...then more...always more...until they are beaten...which they always will be... Coupling with trump, in the praise of Putin, is Mike Pompeo...yet anoth...

Doesn't that picture of the hills over El Cajon , remind you of the show M*A*S*H? ... the helicopter that Radar is looking at in the hills? ...just noticed that and it rang a bell... The escalation of the Russians moving into the Ukraine ... WAR ...hate that word... the obnoxious comment that trump made about Putin, being a 'genius' ...in his way of sectioning off Ukraine...piece by piece...why in the world would someone say such a thing during this time of chaos?...to sabotage the Ukrainian people that way...is beyond comprehension... and yet another indicator that the man is not fit to be a leader ... ANYWHERE ... Ukraine leadership ... finally woke up and realized that this is real...calling up his reservists...a bit late, dude...declaring an emergency ...as the Russian troops are set on most boundaries of the country...ready to strike...the Kremlin has given the OK for Putin to go forth, so it is reported...it is now just when and where... I have never understood the m...

Now that's a sign for all Horse bettors ...this date in time...February 22, the year 2022... 2/22/22 ...think I should go with the 2 in the 2nd race?...perhaps, it will go off at 2:22 in the afternoon...that would make it even more...ah, betable...is that superstitious or just canny?...or just plain stupid?...well, if I bet $2 dollars on it, it would at least be something I said I did...or, $22...or even $222...ah, right... Is there a hit song that had a 2 in it? ... '2 Faces Have I' by Lou Christie...the falsetto dude, prior to Barry Gibb... '2 of Us' by the Beatles... '2 Tickets to Paradise' by Eddie Money...and of course, the best of the rest... 'Love Me 2 Times' by the incomparable Doors... OK, let's keep this going...famous sports people who wore the number 2 .. .Kevin Garnett of the Boston Celtics... Jimmie Foxx , of MLB, circa 25-45... Moses Malone , of the 76ers... Kawhi Leonard of the SDSU Aztecs, and lately of the Clip Joint... Derek...

As the war battles, eerily wait in the near future ...there is this thing called DIPLOMACY that lingers as well.. .can the leaders of the Ukraine, Russia, USA, and France find a workable solution to this? ...rumors abound...that if there is no attack by the Russians, that the two Prezzes will meet later this week... Putin and Biden ...for the sake of mankind, I hope this happens... All Star games can be a bust...usually are ...witness the NFL debacle a month ago...yet, somehow the NBA got, er, snuck a good one on us ...using that end point thang...the total that the winner must reach...in lieu of the time clock... Steph Curry put on a shooting exhibition like no other...LeBron hit a fadeaway to win it ...and there you go...it really was fun, albeit way tooooo long at halftime... The NBA honored their version of the 75 best players of all time ...for the 75 year anniversary of the league...the newbies, voiced their thanks to the oldies...that they wouldn't be what they are, withou...

You KNOW we do...Sammi ...probably like 14 now...she is not as spry as she once was...neither are we...but, she is still something...as cute as a button...runs the house...and gives love like most dawgs do...as Boss Lady says 'it's your job, Sammi' ...now, do the same for yours...I KNOW you will and do... As much as I bad mouthed the bike lanes yesterday, we used them around town ...in the city, yes...traveling out of town, no...but so it goes...what WE want and what is done...two different things...the destination was to be Little Italy, and then...switched it to the gold mine priced Starbucks...don't they know I am on a fixed income?... The weather here, is about to turn to the rainy stuff ...the transition is this bloody fog in the am...'they' say about 2 days of the wet...hmmm, 'we need it' is the cry... Was watching some college hoops ... the Ducks gave a fine effort in 'Zona, only to pull up down by 3...to be honest, this could be the poorest ...
