Leave the driving to...them

Must say...the passage way to Montecito is easier via the train...much easier...any method of skipping the LA traffic is a blessing...especially yesterday...as there was dense fog...which could only make it worse...BUT, via Amtrak, no problem...think the airplanes were down, too...5 1/2 hours of sitting back...on time and that's the 1st time I can recall it being so...yes, I get it...Cosmo was ticked...

The kids have immense energy...2 and 5...wooah...so dang cute...today, we go to see Cy play hoops...and later...put up the tree...good stuff...

Not so good...was the late nite din din at a 'fancy place' here in Montecito...in the affluent part of the state...the name is withheld to protect the innocent...peculiar fare, I would say...small portions, that beg one to think that it is about flavor,, not quantity...well...the crab cake (notice I said singular) was fishy....well sir, it did come from the sea...the meat and cheese plate was downright strange...weird stuff and not much of it...and then, the main course...a leg and wing portion....you got that right...which one could buy at Von's for 10 for $6...pick and grin kids...on a bed of rice...yes, for the 1st time ever, I agree with orange...give me a Big Mac...one more thing...what restaurant doesn't have ANY chardonnay or cab?...this one did not...

The Duck game is at 5....the line stable at 3 1/2....what?...something is amiss...most of us UO fans are worried...should we be?...GO DUCKS!...

The South Korean Prez made it thru...what is going on there?...no clue...

The CEO killer fled via the bus?...weird days...

One real good thing...it is to be 75* here today...

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......
