The Truth and Nothing but the Truth

Image
It won't be long before trump has to sit in a chair...and tell the truth, and nothing but the truth ...yet, he is and will be tried in the media...well, most everywhere... yes, he will hide behind his social media thing...spouting off whatever he thinks might keep his flock agitated enough to support him ... he may call for another insurrection ...if he still has that power...his two faithful sons, will spew out as much defense and hatred that they can muster up...for sure...yet, the wall has crumbled...too many instances of lawlessness... as he has used the presidential protection as long as he was able to ... he is now a common citizen and subject to the laws of the land ...and this is when and why he is going to be sitting in THAT CHAIR .... telling what he can, under oath ...there has been nothing like this in the history of this country...of course, nothing that he has done, has been done before... none of our presidents have subjected our country to the shame and humiliation ...

Fertility Rate?

Image
Oh my, every once in a while...ah, a GREAT while...the Horse comes upon an article that stops him right in his tracks ...hooves scratching the pavement... this from South Korea ...not the North...a percentage that I have never heard of before... the Fertility Rate ...have you?... where this country of Korea has now more deaths than births ...was this by design?...in fact, they have births later in life than most anyone...over 30, like 33.4+...really...these numbers mean little to me, that countries in Africa have like 5 and 6...whatever that means...the USA has like 1.6...Japan 1.3...these stats are from 2021...so we are talking recent...I guess I never thought that anywhere on earth, we would have less births than deaths... South Korea's number is 0.8 ... To maintain a stable population, countries need a fertility rate of 2.1 ...anything above that indicates population growth...so, we the USA, don't meet that...in South Korea, they have had their numbers fall since 2015...whic...

Maybe Baby

Image
This was a song by the immortal Buddy Holly ... 'Maybe Baby' ...but I am using it as we question our trip up north in another week... We are officially in the maybe stage of the Orygun trip ...as we battle thru our dog's stuff... alteration to the meds...fingers crossed that this will work ...and not cancel our final Beach Boys Concert...you know, we are groupies... Watched a terrific flick on the infamous Woodstock Festival ...how it came about and then, the happening...this is on Prime...were you there?... Guess I am meandering about music this morning...saw a concert in video by Neil Young , set in Nashville in '05...at the old Ryman Theater...where we saw Little Big Town perform...is it 5 years ago?...back to Young, he was extraordinary... Lord, the Padres got shut out in the final at HOME vs Cleveland...embarrassing...this is a playoff team?...not now...and afterward, Mgr Melvin said "I hope this is the bottom"...indeed... The Uvalde Police Chief was ...

Mid-Terms

Image
For so many school kids, of all ages...ha ha...the use of the wording, 'Mid-Terms' was not, er is not, a pleasant experience... late nite studying, some say 'cramming' is the way of the student...hated 'mid-terms' ... BUT, I am referring to the voting nowadays ...the Mid-Terms signifies between the general elections...OK, the preface is over... yesterday the primary mid-terms, those in NY and Florida ...so many pundits use the outcomes as precursors to the big MID-TERMS...when the Democrats versus the Republicans for the real seats of contention... As many counties and or districts have been reshaped, there are new races in those...that have incumbents going against one another...one such in NY ...but, most are for those who are going to rep the party they are in...I think the Dem race for Guv in Florida was interesting...Crist, ha ha, that is Charlie won the nod...and will face DeSantis...just a teaser for ya...there are others to come...BTW, the trump gopher...

Working on a Groovy Thing

Image
Good morning, all! ...have looked back at some of my later posts...don't want redundancy...a word I heard over and over from my old hoops coach in high school, Bruce Barker ...not the point...but, was noticing that I triggered many of my headlines using song titles ...yes, familiarity is a good thing...that would get you in the mood...soothe you...relax your brain...and let you wallow in the news of the day, as the Horse sees it... From the advice of our good friends from Indio, supplanted there from across the street from us in Keizer, Orygun...them Morrisses ...we spent an hour an a half watching a Prime Vid flick on orange... 'Unfit!', or is that 'Unfit?' ... by a stream of psychiatrists that give a diagnosis of trump ...is he fit for the presidency?...kind of like stuff, that is more technical in terms than we already know... narcissism ...one line that got me... 'he doesn't care what happens to you' ...OC, that is my analysis, as a bonafide cynic.....

Tattoo You

Image
This all came about, whence I was watching a video of Brooks and Dunn ...specifically, Ronnie ...as he was sanging somewhere...ends up with Reba... 'Cowgirls Don't Cry' ...something like that...that's not the issue...he was sporting a 'COWBOY' tat on his right arm...which got me thinking... if you get a tattoo , you gots to show it ...a memory...in Maui, ah, specifically Paia, I got enough _alls to go to a tat shop and get one...yes, the ageless Horse was gonna get a tattoo ...an innocuous 'Peace' sign...on my arm...thought about my rear... BUT, the rule is ya gotta show it ...so, unless I wore bare arse chaps, the rear was out...Yea, I knew that the iron would pierce my fine corinthian leather type of skin...it would hurt...I was ready...then the sculptor, what else do you call him?... said that I couldn't go into the water for 7-10 days ...ah, in Maui?...fuggit about it... and still, I am tat free ... Around town (city?) I see loads of youngins...

Crazy Love

Image
This is a first, Crazy Horse recommends Crazy Love ...well, you have to be in the mood...it is one of them, head scratchers...why oh why?... cuz it's crazy love ...now don't get this confused with the song by Poco , 'Crazy Love' , as it is nowhere to be heard of in this...flick...set in the late 50's, ah, at first...don't want to give any of it away...as some of youse might have heard of it, already...it was hot news...and get this, it is a documentary ...I know many of the Horse readers are thinking that I have finally lost it...dementia, or just gone crazy...you have gotten this far, so it is a happening in NYC (where else?)...to say it has so many twists and turns is an understatement... find this beaut on Prime Video ... I mentioned the group Poco ...another under appreciated band...had a mellow sound that we, in my generation, grooved to... 'Call it Love'...'Pickin up the Pieces' ...see if you recognize some of these Poco band members... R...
