The Sign

Image
Hello strangers...well, 'Hello Stranger' ...the awesome hit of the one and only, Barbara Lewis ...perhaps, it went bye bye in your mind...dig it back up...you will thank me later... ah, me blog title today is all about the SIGN! ... there are many interpretations of the word and it's meaning...one such, just may be when you are driving and someone doesn't like your path...another, is when you are about to do something, and you wait for the sign....perhaps, you need to sign on the dotted line...or, maybe you need to sign up to vote... Signs Signs everywhere a Sign ...why isn't it sine?... yes, the Five Man Electrical Band sung this song... 'Signs' ...what does the sign say?... News out of Israel...that 4 of the hostages have been rescued...terrific! ...so surprised that they are still alive...I have had my doubts that any of them were...this whole thing would stop, if the sides would get together...release the rest of the hostages...and Israel agree to stop ...

You know, when the Horse gets mad...like really mad...at someone who is talking LIES...and lots of 'em...he has a tendency to accuse the orator of speaking with a forked tongue ...not naming names, but I will give you 3 guesses...and it won't take but one, I reckon... Wooah, the pundits have been dead wrong....for about 2 weeks now...in their unleashing who they thought would be LeBron's new coach in LaLa Land ...they had already crowned the Dukie, JJ Redick ...wait a minute, buster...there is news out on the web net, that that is totally WRONG!...the Lakers are about to offer a massive contract to the 2 time NCAA winning coach of UConn...Dan Hurley ...this makes sense...the cat can coach...will not take crap from his players...much to my dismay of the Lake Show, this was a GREAT move by them...if it is done... Speaking of hoops...the NBA playoffs FINALLY gets going tonite in Boston ...yup, I have been listening to them same pundits going off on how good the Celtics are...a...

The Citizenship

Image
As we wallow in the depths of who is and who's not, and who can't be...a CITIZEN of the United States...lost in this, is a little known fact of such a thing... a century ago, actually June 2nd of 1924 ... the ORIGINAL INHABITANTS of this land...were finally, given...CITIZENSHIP! ...it was called 'The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924' ...sure, of course, there were restrictions...Congress finally found a way to recognize our tribes as real people... not withstanding trying in vain to wipe the 'Indian' off this land for about 115 years...finally conquer, and put those left...in pseudo concentration camps...which you may call 'reservations'...ah, the Rez ...I digress... This country is filled with the conquerors...many have roots in Europe...well, most ...and for some reason now...even though the past generations are all squatters... those who are here now...have become uppity...won't allow anyone else in to this land...how dare they try!...they are not ...

The Sun

Morning, kids...not sure if it is the best thing...but, to awaken to sunshine is right up there...yes, along with the freshly brewed coffee smell...that infiltrates the condo...the bright and the bold...sounds much like a commercial, right?...go ahead, Starbucks, you can use it... Father's Day approaching....and what a scene in the Canadian Open...where the Scott, Bob MacIntyre, won the event in the PGA...by one...whew...the cool thang, was that his pappy was on the bag...the caddie...who showed less emotion than the regular loopers do...interviewed after, there was the expected emotions of the 1st time winner....but, the father, finally broke up a tad...admitted he had to get back home to his real job...he said he was a 'grass cutter'...only in sport... Back into the court room...this time it is Hunter Biden...in Delaware...and you can bet a quid, that all forevers will have their eyes and ears on this one...somehow, equating what Hunter did to what the felon trump did...a...

The Scene

It was a gorgeous nite here in the Hood ...as we traversed our way over to the bay...to see another concert at the Rady Shell...an absolute wondrous outdoor venue...with our closest 8,000 or so fellow groupies...of the one and only, Cody Jinks ...OK, a bit tongue in cheek...we had no idear who he was, or what he sang...other than we knew he was a country bloke...our son saw him last month, and dug him...Boss has friends who are truly groupies of the sanger...so, we got tix and went to judge for ourselves...BTW, the opening act was this band called 'Blackberry Smoke' ...who were pretty good... He looked like one of them ZZ Top guys ...the people stood and bobbed and weaved as if...when he started his gig...to be perfectly candid, we were about 40 to 50 years older than purnt near everyone there...outside of the ushers, who were our age...the beer lines were longer than the latrine lines, which does not a bit of sense to moi...anyhoo, we had no idea of what the songs were...or wo...
