Fly Away

-


Morning, kids...ah, the sunshine is out...the weather is clear...the morning aroma is perfect...too soon for Richard Walker's pancakes, I reckon...which does permeate the air all around us...that sweet smell...agonizing for us who can't have them...I do have some form of Keto cakes, but last time I tried 'em, it was a simple 'no, no'...almond flour?...something like that...I settle for Grape Nuts and a nanner....

We are prepping for the great get away...up to the Pacific Northwest...gonna 'Fly Away'...this time, in lieu of taking Cosmo...who I have been told, is pissed...he likes the journey...man, we have so much crammed in to the time there, I don't know how it can be done...we are renting a SUV (I think)...we are going to Salem, Lincoln City, and then Bend...egads, with stops with as many friends as possible...anyhoo, we are really looking forward to it...the one problem...how we have changed in appearance...a downer for the ego...'man, you sure look older'...when we haven't seen them Oregonians for years...

Speaking of planes...your guy, Just Dum Vance...scheduled his arrival at the same time as Harris/Walz...on the tarmac...and was ripe for a statement, that he wanted to see his plane, that he would have after the election...listen, dude, it was not a Southwest, which is the only one that you will be riding...BTW, did you see that Southwest Air is quitting their cattle call way of seating?...going to assign seats...like real soon...good, as I hated the way they did it...

Da duh Da duh...the games back from the Bums...now 3...as is the DBacks...we won a head scratcher, and Arizona swept the Indians (oops, Guardians)...and the Phillies clobbered LA in LA...sweetness...we have one more today, at Pitt...and the Phillies invade Phoenix...the Bums are off...

Olympics...guys hoops...big game today...a nooner our time...Serbia and USA...of course, must win...

How this world can deal with the constant threat of tragedy...the plot of terrorists to kill as many people as they could at a Taylor Swift Concert...fuggit about the ages...17 and 19...it's the acts of inhumanity that they strive for...many of the mass shooters, are teens...they want to kill innocent people...soldier to soldier, I understand...these two, were recently hired as security...oh my...

The White Sox...did win, and the streak is over at 21...alas, they lost the next game...and now, the Mgr got the axe...it was...inevitable...

The news is sketchy...but, the word out...is that Ukraine forces attacked inside Russia yesterday...I had no idea that they were that strong...?...

Have a coolish day...

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......
