Lazy Saturday




It was one of those great, lazy Saturdays...here in SoCal
...ah, south SoCal...sun, brightly shining...light winds...and you could feel the pulse of the city (town?)...as we embarked on a tram ride to Old Town for an afternoon lunch, dinner, whatever that is called...the convenience of it, hopping on the tram...then, sauntering about, with many others doing the same...Old Town...found a grand place to eat...at the bar...no line, no waiting...it was terrific...did some shopping, and hopped back on the tram...back in the Marina in minutes...way way cool...

Did you watch the Kansas St/Fla Atlantic game?...BTW, I did not know they even had a school...FAU...nestled in Boca Raton...with satellite sites in 5 cities...31,000 attend the school...anyhoo...Florida Atl won it in a thriller...KSU has all transfers on their squad, and a new coach...weird...and a dynamite little 5'8" PG...yet, another betting fav went down...oh by the way...the Zags lost in a stinker...losing by 28!...to UConn...bad time for a collapse...fingers crossed today for SDSU against Creighton...

We happened on a Netflix special...WACO...what went on in 1993...not that long ago, kids...3 part series...that delved into the cult that imploded...ah, was attacked by the US in that city...took 51 days for the entire siege to end...amazing story that we had little knowledge of the tragedy...heard about it, but it didn't cause much news to us in Oregon...another embattled soul, who thought he was Jesus...and found followers...people search for this...

Speaking of WACO...the 2024 campaign of trump started last eve...almost a 2 hour rant and accusation tour...in WACO...imagine sitting through that...what other 'leader' could babble on like that?...there was this guy in Germany who could...nonsensical blurts of words that try to penetrate the souls who attend these gatherings...they are out there, that is for sure...see the above paragraph...similar...

Waco, Texas...seems like an odd place for donny to start his tour...right?...the birthplace of Dr. Pepper...really...located halfway between Dallas and Austin...Native Americans were in the land, before the white eyes came...the tribes were called the 'Waco'...thus, you got it...the infamous Baylor University is located there...you might think and be right...this was a harboring point for the KKK...not a safe place for the Blacks, Indians, or anyone of color...I digress...

The Horse is declaring this 'Our Spring Break'...as we prep for our annual trip to the desert...you do recall, we were one day away from moving there, a few years back...meeting amigos and amigas, for fun and laughter...geez, my golf game is back sucking...wouldn't you just know it...oh well, it is fun to meet back up...we do NEED the heat...

4 dudes in the hunt for the Match Play champ in Austin...wowser, everything is Texas today, Horse...Scheffler, his best buddy Sam Burns, and two bombers, Rory and Cam Young...are the four...who ya got?...flip a coin...

Query...why do many say 'don't drink the water' in Mexico...but, the beer made there, ah, their water, is the foundation for some damn good...Pacifico, Dos Equis, Corona, Modelo are all dang really good...Tecate?...Indio?...c'mon...great stuff...why?...the Horse wants to know...

The nite of my first collegiate hoops game...being the good boy I was, studying at my desk...as many others were out partying...one such lad, came into my room...drunk as a skunk, and leaned on me...I threw him on the bed and he past out...I got so mad, I smashed my hand on my desk...yup, smashed one of my contacts I had there...just lying there...broke it in pieces...in those days, there were not dailies...I was out of luck...had no glasses...and you got it, played the game without contacts...couldn't see a thing and was terrible...and that's why the Horse never drinks...

Just when you thought things were going awry...word out is that Bad Bunny and K Jenner are still meeting up for dinner in LaLa Land...somehow, that eases my day...

You know, I think it is a Lazy Sunday, too...you do know it is 'Our Spring Break'...

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.....

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...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
