Make Mine a Double



It could drive you to drinkin'...in this Hot Rod Lincoln...yea, whatever...this damn election...3 days and then...we elate or not...just hope you have either sent your ballot in, or get out to your polling place...and VOTE!...blue, hopefully...I for one, can't stand to hear that buffoon speak anymore...his voice is so gnarly, it grates on me...no foolin'...that bad...

Mi amigos...we don't talk about it...as we have differences in the party system...however, none of the guys who are on the other side, think a damn of trump...they hate him, too...interesting...but won't vote for Harris, either...you do know, it is a secret ballot...as my mother always told me...

Just for kicks, I am going to take you back to my childhood...memories...that will last my lifetime...we lived out at Chemawa Indian School (outside of Salem, Oregon)...in housing that was there for the employees...terrific houses, and neighborhood...both my parents worked at the school...I loved the basketball that the kids played there...coached by my good buddy, JB's, dad, Ed Bartlett...we, ie, my parents and everyone in the hood, called him 'Coach'...everyone else, had a name, but his was 'Coach'...he made some mighty impressive teams out of Navajo and Montana Natives...so fun to watch...I can recall going to games...where the band leader, Vince Matt, would lead the Injun Band to great songs...and man, I tell ya...talk about home court advantage...there were rafters that were above the playing court...and the Natives would hoop and holler for the team...them white eyes must have just feared and hated playing there...Eddie Belin, Stanley Armboy, stood out...there were many others...

The Ducks are in Michigan at noon...kickoff...this be a REAL TEST for the number 1 team in the Nation...stand up and be counted...geez, I made it sound like an election...and Ohio St vs Penn St....where both coaches have a knack for losing big games...one of them will survive, today...probably his job, too...

Not exactly sure what is going on in the WNBA....with 7 out of 12 head coaches getting fired...something is amiss...they should fire an equal amount of the refs they had last season...I do know that...

The 3rd season of 'Lincoln Lawyer' is a beaut...Netflix...if you have yet to watch....start with the 1st season...

The NBA is off and running after the 1st week...surprise?...the Nuggets are floundering...as are the Bucks...hmmm...no worries, 77 games to go...ha ha...too long a season, kids...

You recall the phrase when the Horse was coaching?...'live by the 3, die by the 3'...well, kids, that is the NBA now...everyone hucks up the 3 ball...all 5 blokes...they play 5 out...dribble drive and expect the D to help...and kick it out to a bloke sitting on the outside...the 3 point line...launch!...boooooooooo!!!...

Drum roll please...the results of our twin shots...in each arm...I was sore, but fine...not so good for Boss...she was achey, felt like throwing up, head ache, and dead tired...in her 2nd day...so, depends on who gets it...but still...enough shots for me...for a year...no mas...

Finally, it is date night...Boss woke up this morning feeling fine...we are going to Morton's...they are offering a super din din for $59...ah, add the drinks and wine...well, you know where this is heading...ah, Mister Bartender...'Make Mine a Double'...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
