Friars vs the Bums

-


This is what the playoffs in MLB should look like...a 5 game series, pitting the upstart Friars of San Diego versus the fat cats of LaLa Land, them Bums...it's one of those times, that if the Padres can win one of the games in Hollywood...then we could, make that might, sweep the Bloody Blue here in the best city in the world...here at the home, we are having a raucous room of devoted Friar Fans...ready to sweat out the games...BYOB...ha ha...why not a kegger you say?...the good old days of yesteryear...back at college...red solo cups...gettin pie eyed and out of control...wait, that could never have been the Horse...too much class for that...

Speaking of college...that is exactly where we saw the immortal Tom Jones, perform at...SDSU...up on the mountain...in an arena that was, well, built, like on a mountain...you went STRAIGHT down to your seats...we were lucky to be in the 9th row...well, I guess you could say unlucky...as we had to walk UP, after the show...all them steps...listen, kids...his voice was strong and still can belt it out...for an 84 yrs young bloke...didn't move like he used to...but, who does?...I guar-an-tee you I didn't yesterday, out at Singing Hills...forced to walk the course...dee-hy-dration...was cramping and ...well, it was NOT a good scene...back to the college...not sure what the dress code is...but, we saw most gal students with Taylor Swift shorts on...a far cry from when I went to school...dresses on 'til 5, then jeans acceptable after that...at EOC...which we called 'YUCK'...the guys?...no restrictions...the male dominated society of the 60's...I digress...the leadership, must have all been republicans...and men...

On the way...we dined in North Park...what a treat...inasmuch, as we will shimmy back over there again...terrific area...many restaurants and bars...fun vibe...OC, we used Uber/Lyft...and it is quite convenient...door to door service...the spot, One Door, we were blessed with great food and drink...a terrific waitress...and yes, I kept checking my phone for Duck scores...rude you say?...perhaps, but listen...I needs to know...as UO handily beat J Smith's Spartans...and that naysayer McIlroy, wrong again...you are wrong again, McIlroy...wrong...just a wild guess, but I think he is a MAGA...and hates the liberals out in Eugene...

Logical or illogical...the course I belong to...you know it, Singing Hills...just overseeded one of it's courses...and won't allow power carts on it...just walkers, with push carts....OK...but, I don't understand not having power carts, that stay on the paths...dudes like me, die out there...it's like walking and pushing the carts in sand...will NEVER do that again...never...never...

This is a must...if you are into vinyl...the new release of Little Big Towns' Christmas Album...the Horse has previewed it, and it is magical...dang, I want to put up the tree and lights...and all that...of course, I am a real true LBT groupie...

'Wouldn't it be nice'....if we won game 1...

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......
