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'...
