Let There Be Light

Image
Ok, that was awesome...as we were awakened by some very anxious kids...get that tree up!...CyCy is the right age for it being a big deal...and he took pride in decorating it...Baby Cas, not so much...perhaps, at nite he will appreciate it...he does say ‘tree’...well, sort of...he is just at the beginning of talk...’I love you’ is downright clear as a bell...’Pappy’, too... For youse unaware, the drive thru LA is hell...the 405, especially...at times 6 lanes of chaotic lane changing...Cosmo does just fine...one more thing...he is a Class B RV...used to be just a few on the road...now, they become commonplace...for the non campers out there, very similar to the Amazon Vans...ours is 21 ft long... A good portion of the afternoon yesterday, I can’t write about...not bad things, but very good stuff...just thangs... The weather is simply sublime...cool at nite, and warm during the day...zero clouds...as I am writing, watching the sun glitter off the ocean...priceless... Have you seen the Tes...

LaLa Land

Image
Here we are positioned on the beach in LaLa Land...Lordy, if I had  buck for every Bum cap I see, the Horse could be a millionaire...they are proud...Huntington Beach...a favorite haunt for us...which has a brassy mall across the 1...serious great one...with many mighty fine restaurants in it...last nite we went to The Brant...5 stars... On to the kids place today...hang the tree and all... The weather is simply awesome...sunny and the waves are smashing...this is why we moved down here in SoCal... I got asked to join a group, Natives against trump...words to that effect...man, he won’t get one Indigenous vote...he is despised...yes, I agreed... We had not gone to a Starbucks for awhile...until yesterday on the trail...it was good...great...the closest one in the Hood closed, I think that is why...we have not been... Brenda Lee knocked off Mariah Carey as the numero uno Xmas song...did you vote?...if you asked my bro, The Chipmunks would be the victor... Gary L’s most hated golfer,...

An Impingement

Image
I know my skin color is dark...probably darker now, due to the sun...and an incident awakened me to what people can do...and say. ..we live in this great country of many races...albeit, it has it's moments of random stretches of sanity.... it unearthed me for a moment in time, yesterday on the links...the golf course. ..where I play thrice a week...paired up with 3 others, noticeably much lighter skinned than I...where are you going with this Horse?... As most of you know, I am Native American .. .ah, one of them Indigenous people...Injun...Indian...well, whatever Columbus called my ancestors ...5/8ths Native Blood and proud of it...let's carry on... The golf hole that I was playing is parallel to the highway, er street, that is just outside the golf course...cars buzz by often ...and this time, was different... as I just whacked my golf shot...a voice from a car, going by at the same time...it was screamed out loud ...for youse golfers, who have the same thing...often you hear...

Whistleblower

Image
You have heard someone being called a 'Whistleblower '...right?... it's a person within a company, meeting organization, or political arena...who calls out some incidents of maliciousness...or improprieties ...have you ever seen as many that are termed that, as there are for the trump regime?... whistleblowers ...plural, like many plural...regime?...I struggled with that...it is most near a dictatorship...or a mob boss... Gosh, I  know I am repeating myself...but, how on earth, can there be people in the US that still support that crook? ... trump ...guess it is the white power thing that still exists in the country...but ya'll need to wake up, he is using you...he believes none of that... he will do or say ANYTHING to get into power again... ANYTHING! ... The FBI told Congress that we are getting mega threats...we, the USA...from Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and Hamas supporters...against Jewish businesses, schools, and synagogues ...and more...USA in general...online threats......

A Holly Jolly Christmas

Image
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 por...

Suspicion

I just knew the Alabama upset of Georgia would bring out the worst in the BSBCS voters ...ah, what are they called now?...CFS?...something like that...as that group came up with their Final 4...to play for the champ of D-1 football...sure, there are always speculations...always... Historically , it was a VOTE for the champ, no games played...I guess in that system, Michigan would get the nod .. .then 'they' went to a 2 team playoff...might that be Michigan and Washington? ...probably ... then this last one to be used...the 4...next year it will be 12...and sure, the #13 team, the one left out...will be a bitchin... For their, the BSBCS, entire set of weekly meetings...have been ranking teams via the unbeatens ... until the final vote ... and then, threw that out ... as Florida St did finish unblemished...but lost their QB via an injury...and the group chose to punish them ...they are number 5 and OUT...you see, I see shenanigans... SUSPICION ...of the SEC... that got Alaba...

Good Morning!

What an awesome sunny day here in the southland ...yes, a tad bit chilly...but, no clouds and it will get up to the 70*'s all week...bodacious golfing weather, don't you think?...it's bright and it brightens up you, too...well, us... later on this week, we shall roam via Cosmo up north...see the kids and their kids...OUR grandkids...you know, take the presents and all that stuff...it is our Xmas excursion ... Dadgummit...them Tide guys did go and do it ...upset Georgia and put a huge question mark into the BSBCS polling... Michigan and Washington are in...for sure ...and now, who are the final 2?...Florida St did beat Louisville, sporting their only healthy QB left...a 3rd stringer...and Texas routed OSU...soooooo... what do the voters cast their tallies for?...if they go the safe way, and take the Seminoles , that mean NO SEC team in...the argument goes forth... Texas #3 and 'Bama #4....we shall see... Talking lame politics .. .the stupid idea of DeSantis of Florid...
