83.3 million reasons...

Image
Trial and the anecdotes of what not to do's...if you are the defendant...trump ...as he couldn't just sit there...and absorb what was being said...litigated?... the 'bullying docket' just doesn't work in court, orange ...you are at the mercy of 9 jurors...if you choose to perform, you are doing so for THEM...people, just plain people...listening, watching, and judging...YOU... if you choose to make a mockery of the moment, YOU will pay for that...which you will and did...well, you haven't yet...to the tune of $83.3 MILLON DOLLARS! ... Why was orange even there?...my guess, is he felt his bullying and presence would be intimidating enough to get him a lighter amount of fine ...the presiding judge and the jury, were having none of that...it is also my assumption that he told his very own attorneys what to say and do...they got leveled...embarrassing the field of lawyers, everywhere...as trump once called out 'I know more than the generals'...the military, ...

Biggest Bolt of All

Image
Ever since the owner(s) of the Chargers took his team out of San Diego, I have despised the bloke...Spanos and Son ...wished them bad luck and nothing but the worst...then, they drafted UO's QB Justin Herbert ...can't just root for him, so had this little hoorah for the team...drats. ..in a stadium in LA, where they don't like the Chargers, either...but...they did something that I didn't think they could do... they landed Michigan's JIM HARBAUGH as their new head coach ...he is 'The Biggest Bolt of ALL!' ...if anyone, hear me out, anyone, can make this a strong, competitive team, it is he...or him...whatever...sit back and watch the transformation... Out at Singing Hills, one of the courses was walk only...the other, was cart path only...we took the latter...and stupid me ...I think it was easier to walk it...as you have to walk out to your ball, then back...one of these days, I will figure that out...BTW, the grass was just fine...no standing water...it...

On The Border

Image
Not what you may think...we pontooned (kidding) down to the local vinyl shop yesterday ...local?...Point Loma...and there was still some standing water...about...the place we go, was surrounded during the 1,000 year storm ...the owner says up to his waste...oops, waist...damn the English language...with visions of purchasing an Eagles record ...we found 'On The Border' , arguably (wait, who am I arguing with?)...make that in my estimation, one of the best records they put out...which somehow, I have lost...and now, well, it is a new vinyl and I am mighty proud to own...whew...to add to my collection... 'Hampshire put the hammer down on Haley' ...had to do it, the alliteration...but, the numbers, kids...did not see her winning...but, trump got 163,000 and she had 130,000 ...that's a lot of folk that don't like the bloke... Nikki Haley will battle on...she must ...as when he gets the slammer, well, she needs to be ready...BTW, on the victory docket behind orang...

The Rains, My Goodness

Image
One of my constant little giggles is the weather people here in south SoCal predicting RAIN! ...usually, it turns out to be showers...not the Orygun rain I am used to...and it sprinkles for any hour or two, and then OUT pops the sun... well now, people...yesterday, was DIFFERENT... 3+ inches in a couple of hours...followed by on again, off again, rain...lots of it...call us stupid... Why?...we went to the super Walmart...thinking that most people would stay home ...that part was semi-right... BUT, we had no idea that these waters...are unhinged here...there is no place for it to go...and makes like LAKES...and running rivers...some at least 4 and 1/2 feet HIGH ...so guess what happened to us?...we were trying to get thru all the street and highway blockades...to get back home...took us about an hour, for a 10 minute normal, drive... We don't get much, but WHEN we do...well, you can see... The scribes want to make this New Hampshire vote as the last hurrah for Nikki Haley. ..perha...

Monday, Monday

Good morning, all...as we set sail on our last day of this 'rain pattern' here in south SoCal...hasn't been much, but well, 'we need it'...right...it does keep the Horse off the golf course... Let's start with the news of the republicans...as I told you yesterday, DeSantis of Florida (DF) would drop out of the prez race...I thought after the New Hampshire vote tomorrow...he must have seen the numbers and decided to quit prior ...and after all the trump name calling of him, DF went ahead and endorsed orange...what a foo...so, the remaining two on the ballot...trump and Nikki Haley...let's see how this goes...it is way early and the courts are going to be in session today...for trump... BREAKING...trial is postponed til tomorrow due to Covid concerns... The court...it has been released by his people...Jr and Erik, that trump will try to testify today ...he already is guilty, but is trying to minimize what he will owe...ha ha...keep talking, dude...nobody but...

Top Cat

Image
There is so much movement here at the home...well, our home...to get an animal to add to the serenity that we now have ...as most of you know, seeing our dog Sammi go...was just too hard... and then, Boss has been pushing for a feline...as I have been balking...the downside, is that we are gone so much...would need a cat sitter ...we have had 2 cats in the past...both were inside outside varieties...if we were to get another, it would be inside only, duh... some say that this type may be nocturnal...or, scratching demons...what if? ...the Horse thinks to be satisfied with the choice, that it must be similar to the one and only TOP CAT ...perhaps, a speaky one...just like Mr Ed...as a talking horse...I dunno, kids...we are here and there for the next 3 months... Top Cat was a classic cartoon show in 1961...only lasting but one season, the normal life of most all NFL coaches at their job...then they retire and go golfing... Wooah be the Baltimor e Ravens ...as they manhandled the Texans...
