The HEAT!

-


Listening and hearing about the unbelievable HEAT that most of the country is going thru...egads...100* +...what the heck?...it was 92* out at Singing Hills, too...yesterday...BUT, here in the Marina District, in downtown San Diego...we are in the 70's...so, you can guess the outcome of that...we are slammed with people from inland...especially the fat cats from Arizona...

Which, coincidentally, have their beloved Snakes in town to take on the Friars...the crowd was the most ever for a Padre game...over 47,000!...and all were treated to a donnybrook...SD was up 7-2 in the 9th...and lo and behold, the DBacks came alive and hit 2 dingers, one a grand salammy...and we were down 8-7...and the Arizoneans in the park, were going bat shit crazy...ie, rocking our near flawless closer...the Horse had had enough...turned the game off and went to bed...downtrodden...talk about the weather...I am officially a fair weather fan...as, here came back the Friars in the bottom of the 9th...All Star Jurickson Profar, quickly tied it with a tater of his own...and then...the topper...Manny hit a two run home run...and it was the Padre's turn to go bonkers...of course, I was in the bed, still smoldering...the results?...never give up, Horse...

Hmmm, which is exactly what Prez B is gonna do...never give up...until the Almighty tells him to...don't know about that, but way too many people are suggesting he do so...I give this whole thing another week, and then...we shall see...

Facebook runs these things called 'reels'...and has many clips of old times...one such skit was by Foster Brooks...whose schtick is to play a drunk...like really well...this time, he was interviewed by the legendary Dean Martin...about being a DENTIST!...son, Dr Cris, you must watch this...hilarious...rivals Tim Conway, when he did the dentist thang...

Have I told you that back in Cris's dental school time in Vegas, we saw Tim Conway and Harvey Korman in concert?...slapstick at it's best...we laughed and laughed...

One more, you must find Tim Conway's skit about 'Dorf on golf'...

This hot dog eating contest...this I can't figure out...if I have 2, I am stuffed...and almost nauseous...how can one eat like 60 of them?...something is really really wrong...how does the body even accommodate that?...

BTW, I have had 4 beers in the past 11 weeks...FOUR!...that is in itself a new Horse record...

The Diet...one of the curious things...is to amplify main dishes...to entice the eating...the dinner...it's a real trick in doing so...do any of you out there have tricks that we can use?...anything, and I mean, anything...would help the cause...

Going back to my 'influencers' blog entry...all but one of the Kfam is in the top 10 followers list...guess which one...

Looks like I am checking on thangs...it's been a few weeks since we got the new Samsung Teevee...it is still amazing and well worth the change...the picture is simply mind boggling...

Breaking...there is an uptick in the Israel/Lebanon War this morning....the Hezbollah...

Storm Beryl is in the Gulf...approaching land in the USA, soon...listen, kids...the earth is heating up...

Well, it's National Fried Chicken Day...love fried chicken...not on the diet...something is wrong here...

Have a great, and coolish Saturday...if you can...

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......
