The Reckoning

I admit it, the Horse is biased...so you forevers might just stop reading me today...right now...the 1st night of the DNC...was exhilarating!...so much so, they had to bump the star singing JT...James Taylor...the speeches were sometimes, daring...but always, on point...Coach Steve Kerr, got me rocking...ending with the Steph Curry 'night night' to trump, after the final votes are counted...loved it, and screamed in the living room...was a tad bit worried on Hils....Hillary, that is...and not be just, she was terrific...there were others that were carrying the message...the best of the rest?...the cat from Georgia...Senator Ralph Warnock...he has to have some pastor background, right?...an intense view from the south...lord, he was spellbinding...the nite ended with Prez B, doing his thing...I thought he was shouting, rather than talking...that made it not as good as it could have been...listen, kids, it's my take...don't be mad at me...

Tonight, the slate is as good, if not better...as the Obamas take the stage...I, yes moi, can hardly wait...as the transition is on the path of success...nobody can orate like Prez O, Barack...

Back to the baseball...all 3 teams from the west won...and the race remains the same...the Bums three up on the Friars, 4 up on the DBacks...think all 3 teams are scoreboard watching?...duh...listen, all them pundits are expecting the high priced Dodgers to waltz right into the league championship...let's ruin their party...

Speaking of parties...Boss and I head north in a few days...her 50th reunion, and we also meet with our friends at Johnny's...a bar, that is owned by one of my former players...he is kind enough to reserve a spot for us...I figure 10 or so...Friday at 4, hope to see you all there...Saturday is the reunion...then we head on over to the coast and stay at where we honeymooned...really...finish it all off, with a whirlwind trip to Bend to meet up with them Gahrs and Crosses...so fun...and we must thank our gracious hosts, the Snookis...who put up with us, while in Salem...whew, can we do all that?...

Oh yea, and I doubt that we stay on our highly regimented diet...starting off right away with a Padington's pizza...a must do...

Double checking everything today...charging the stuff...need cash...gots to get a new pair of jeans...ah, the body has shrunk...hmmm, maybe they won't fit after we eat in Orygun...

See ya tomorrow, no golf...more prep work...

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......
