A Holly Jolly Christmas





Normally by this time of December, I have been a rockin' to some of my fav Christmas Music
...not yet, this year...don't know why, but just haven't...there is a mood to it, just not yet...perhaps, after seeing the kids and their kids, our grand kids...will change me up...this is my favorite time of the year...so, c'mon everyone, let's have A Holly Jolly Christmas!...

Not sure of the 1st to sing it...but I recall Burl Ives...then, the next best is by Alan Jackson...there are lots of others covering the classic...and yours may definitely be different from mine...

A stark reality here...the cooking of pork chops...we failed miserably last eve...followed to a T, Sam the Cooking Guy's recipe...and it was inedible...totally...I have asked this in the past...some have said they had a great recipe...but it was, and it remains a secret...to prove I am not a real Cooking Guy...I know there are grades of beef...like prime is the best...is there such a thing for pork?...prime pork?...I fail as a purveyor of meats...and am longing for a ticket to edible pork chops....other than at Morton's...

I don't like spiders and snakes...my end to yesterday's blog...who does like spiders and snakes?...

I took a poll yesterday, of what the people thought of the FSU exclusion out of the Final 4...and 75% thought it was unjust...ah, the poll had 4 in it, nevertheless, a poll...

Tree time...how many of you out there...still put up a real Xmas tree?...in lieu of the fake one, that the Horse has...we used to, when we lived in the PNW...the real tree...but, it now is a long gone thang...

A thought came to me brain, in the evening...alas!...eureka!...a thought!...that I would throw a dart at the USA map, and then feature that city...on Tuesdays...so, here goes...and the city is in Pennsylvania...Milroy...talk about your small town...population 1,522...said to have a lot of bars and restaurants, and considered to be conservative...a retirement community...the town was named after Henry Milroy...before that, was known as Armagh Township in 1770...settlers called it that, as many were immigrants from Northern Ireland...this town is highly republican...duh...77%...egads...and how about this...they have NO ZIP CODE!...yet considered a Census-designated place...happy trails to you...

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...
