Blinders

Good morning, kids...hey for all of you who are horse racing people...you will know exactly what I mean when I say "this horse will put on blinders for the next 4 years"....for youse not, these are things that cup the eyes of the horse...thus, it can only see straight ahead...as will this horse...

Finishing up the Bob Woodward book 'War'...it reminded me of what really is happening in the Middle East...and not so much, about what trump was doing...it tells me how invaluable Blinken is, and maybe, was to our country in the past regime...he jockeyed amongst the leaders of all those countries there...like a ping pong ball...according to the book, none worse than Netanyahu...er, Israels' leader...AND how temporary the truce is between Israel and Iran...just a rocket or two, away from being a massive war...we shall see how prez-elect trump handles this...

I'll try to keep this form of commentary on the down low...ah, blinders on...this country is not ready to vote in a woman...for the presidency...so weird...14 million democrats, are telling me this...wonder if Michelle O would try?...have to think, the way the Demos feel, the next in line is the guy from Cali...a guy, not a gal...

Taking a week off from hitting the links...friends from Oregon in, one of the 4some is on a cruise, and other is doing doctor stuff...so, the pool is warm, at 84*...and we are using it...put up the tree...and now, the Santa's go up today...we are going to push the button on the Holiday Season...anything to change the gloom...and doom...

We watched a mini-series on the Zodiac...Netflix...what the?...how can anyone, escape the findings of that police department for sooooo long...and yet, still a no...this was in the 60's...the brutal murders...and the killer sent letters to the SF papers...I can only write I-N-E-P-T!...

I think one of the hardest things to do in cinema...well, perhaps, tv....series...is writing the final episode...I would say over half are simply lame...

Oh my, is this the end of the MAGA caps?...or must you continue to wear your Rajneeshi red?...

Is a series better than a movie?...

STILL, has anyone seen Mark Meadows?...even after the trump win?...

The NBA season is in full swing...and the Horse hasn't seen but a few minutes of it...too early...the football season is front and center...oh yea, and the Ducks host Maryland Saturday....

OK, all you forevers...when do you think the prices of groceries will go down?...

Dang it Horse, you took off your blinders didn't you...

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......
