In the PNW

 Hey kids...the Horse has landed...back in the USSR, wait a minute...in the Pacific Northwest...greeted by a throng of ...oops, rain...and gobs of traffic on the 205...so greatful to Snooki who weatherd the storm to pick us up from PDX...hey, I do the same when he comes down to Diego...even steven?...hardly...my drive is 5 minutes...shhh...don't tell him...

The Padington Pizza was simply incomparable...to anything we have down south...we have shit for pizza...it was a treat for our tastebuds...and we made a stop this am at the Roth's...again, nothing like this down south...had a freshly grilled breakfast sand...so massive a super market...

Today is the Pow Wow at noon...the siblings...be fun to see the tribe again...it's been like 30 years?...maybe not that much, I dunno...and then, dindin, with our long lost friends...man, that's a lot of food...then rest up for the game tomorrow...seems like a lot for us...we normally take naps during the day...

One more thing...the cost of petrol...way way cheaper here in Orygun...what a joke...BTW. this seems like a Saturday...

One more, ha ha...Snooki has a newish rig...ours are '04 and '07...nearly vintage...amazing all the bells and whistles they have now...if we weren't on a fixed income, we might get a newbie...not in the cards...

As I peruse the news of the world...things haven't changed much...guess that is sorta good...as we...carry on...

Cannot believe how old my students have gotten and colleagues are too. Yes Pedro’s pizza is the place! Have a great time here.

You really need to take a tour of the new ‘North’ . I’ll be subbing there this week. Come in and look me up (room 121) in West wing.

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...

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.....

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
