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...

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 trump criminal trial is now set to go on Monday ...try as he may, he couldn't get it delayed...how many tries?...4?...it's a go, Bozo.. .and now, it is Perry Mason time ...does he have Perry?...I see he is without the lady attorney he had in his last court case ... a thought for us all...seems like whenever we are watching the 'famous people' in court, the prosecution has a tougher job ahead of them ...we shall see...and the item of 'odor' has emerged again...what the heck?... Bizarre outside the courthouse...a guy set himself on fire...he died ...the last time I can recall something like this... was in South Vietnam, with the Buddhist Monks doing the same, in the Vietnam War...egads ....we just don't value life enough... Congress...it's another odd session...with House Speaker Johnson (Mr Peepers) going against MAGA, and trying to get $ for Ukraine and Israel ...yes, MTG is not only fighting that, but attempting to get him fired from his job...why o...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......
