The 120 MPH Winds


Having gone through a 120 MPH wind storm...and the devastation it caused...the Floridian one, Idalia?, has hit what they call 'The Big Bend Region'...north of Tampa...and I know what it was like...for some to have remained, and tried to ride this out...I fear for their safety...

The Gulf of Mexico waters...are extremely warm...which only fuels this catastrophic Category 3 storm...the 9th of the region THIS YEAR!...have my fingers crossed, for the area...I'm sure you will see enough pix and vids of what it did...

In my hometown of Salem, Oregon...we were in the infamous 'Columbus Day Storm'...which totally dismantled so many structures and TREES...this too, was the 120 MPH winds thang...because nothing like this, happened seemingly ever, there...we were not evacuated...yes, it was terrifying...I was a 10th grader at the time...never forget...

So the rest of the country...will be meeting and having a bubbly or two...smoke some cigars (the surgeon general advises against this practice)...and pick and choose YOUR team for Fantasy Football...the league that will drive your senses for the next 17 weeks...ah, but not the Horse...not one invite...and so it goes, with the depleted popularity of this elder...don't cry for me, Argentina...

The falling Friars...got into another OT game...and sure enough lost again...0-11...without a bunt to put the runner in scoring position, in the 10th...which, the Cardinals did...and won...managing, is not that hard, folks...time for a new one...ridiculous...

Remember when we all went to the library to seek out info for some paper that had to be written?...it was a necessity...now, the web net does that...and the library?...in Diego, it is filled with homeless...tragic use of historical means...how is yours, in your city?...guessing, almost like a tomb...

This is going to be my last day of golf, with the boys...vacation time...will meet back up in October...I will be hit and miss this month...out at the Hills...

To the Batmobile, Robin...

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...
