The US Open


Much to my surprise, once I got home from the links...just happened to turn on my Tee Vee, and voila!...the US Open was on Natty, NBC
...the course, appears to be dried out...some ugly sand coming off of fairway shots...and the greens themselves...are brutal...I know the USGA wants fast greens, but these are extraordinary...the telecast pretty much followed the plight of Tiger Woods...and his failed attempt at making the cut...fans just want to see Tiger...NBC knows that...

The leaders, are the guys who have been in the elite this whole season...minus, Scottie Scheffler...who barely made the cut...would not be surprised that the eventual winner, might be the only player UNDER PAR!...

As expected, the 4th game of the NBA finals...was a waste...well, for the viewers and the Celtics...who mailed this one in...the Mavs won by 38...ho hum, boring...but not for the Dallas faithful in attendance...will say, that Dallas was super motivated and earned it...even saw Luka guard a guy...although, on replay, it showed him taking 5 steps, before hitting a shot...no lie...no call...well, Scott Foster was on the game...enough said...

trump turned 78 yesterday, really?...he looks older...like 82...well he is 6'3"and weighs 218...so he says...

CC's name is on the web net, as often as KK's...the diff?...she actually does something...other than alter her body....

Many thanks to C Weeks, for his info on the upgrade to Netflix...where the sound and vision improves...had no idea this was an option...and believe me, it is sensational!...today, we are going to watch an oldie but goodie...'Out of Africa'...

One of the songs that always gets me kinda singing with it...'Blinded By The Light'...wake up like a _____...Manfred Mann...did not know it was actually written by Bruce Springsteen...whose band also recorded it...but not as well...according to the Horse...

So, yesterday, on the links...we were in a horrific overcrowded, slow round of golf...following a 3 some...and on the back, the couple bolted...citing' mind games' and that left the single by himself...smashed between two groups...I approached him on the next hole and asked if he wanted to join us for the final 4...'no thank you'...as we watched him flail, swing 3 times in practice, and stand over 3 foot putts for a six...guess it was better than if he was doing that with us...Dude would have gone off on him...

Chas Barkley says he is hanging up his mike after next season...interesting...guess he wants some going away gifts from all his places he talks from...too bad, I enjoy his banter...

The F word was used 257 times in the flick, 'Pulp Fiction'...reckon it is used twice that amount on the golf course, by most foursomes...

At what point in one's life...that are prone to do this...alter their face, to stay youngish?...and yet, end up cloning the same person?...'Housewives of Beverly Hills' all look the exact same as one another...

Same time, same place...tomorrow...

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...
