The Plight

Not sure if I can recall a bigger mess in the political arena, as there is right now...so much for 'advanced education' ...perhaps, just the opposite...at one time, it may have been perceived that the computer would enhance our intelligence...in reality, it may have lessened it...as the masses have become lazy in learning...it's too easy to 'Google' things...and think on a much shallower spark to our brains...I have said this before...'we know a bit about a lot, but not a lot about anything'... How does this apply to the political field? ...the reality that comes forth from the candidates, is nothing but headlines...behind them, are these shallow fields of information...innuendos, that lead to basically NOWHERE...people base their vote on these shoutouts...not, really, what the candy man or woman, is REALLY all about... Turning to age...lord, we have guys that are super seniors running for the presidency ...if both continue on, as the candidates...in the 4 y...

The Answer

Okay kids...you had time to answer my query...Google it, or whatever...the group who sang backup to the Bobby Boris Pickett song, 'Monster Mash' ...was...drum roll please... 'The Blossoms' ... the 3 main gals, were Fanith James, Jean King , and this other one, that you might know... Darlene Love ... In fact, they sang back up to many HIT SONGS, other than Mash ...but, let's not move on just yet... they were in cahoots with none other than the 'Wall of Sound' dude, Phil Spector...and Mash was written in half of an hour...and recorded in half an hour...it was just a graveyard smash... The Blossoms were background vocals for many others...as I said before...two of my all time favorite songs...yes, kids...all time... the Righteous Brothers 'You've Lost That Lovin Feelin', and Shelley Fabares 'Johnny Angel' . ..+ many many more... They got screwed on another...listen to this...do you recall the monster hit 'He's A Rebel' ? ...ye...

Inevitable?

The voices are increasing...to have President Biden step out of the race for the next session...call it a groundswell ...not sure if it has the impact on the Prez...as he continues to say he is in it to the end...HOWEVER, the longer path, is much more strenuous than the shorter one... Father Time has taken over...happens to us all...does in politics, sports, your job, whatever. ..listen, he has done a masterful job in the time he was elected....to resurrect the doom he was saddled with...but, I, too, have repeatedly said...that is time for another... pass the baton and let's get it going ... The ending of SUITS ...man, if the writers of all shows that have a culminating episode like SUITS did...it would leave a lot of their fans and viewers, much happier...case in point, the abysmal ending of 'Seinfeld'...or, the 'Sopranos'...I'm sure there are many more out there, that ended poorly...not SUITS... The waves of play by the Friars ...up and down like the Pacific...

Entrapment

This is an odd thing to say...I know... ENTRAPMENT ...with the two looming candidates for the presidency in our land...we are not given the 2 best candy men (women) to choose from...what say you, Horse?...it's been a looong year of this debate...already...with virtually no real choices brought forth by either party...yes, it is true, that the Repubs dangled a REAL alternative, Nikki Haley...who I thought was a great possibility...but, the MAGA monster shot that notion down...and they are bringing forth, trump...egads...the lie filled air bag, that threatens all opponents, if he wins...and this would be the first felon ever elected to the top spot... On the other hand... the Demos are trying, perhaps in vain, to elongate the tenure of Prez B...who, in my observation, would have a heck of a time lasting another 4 years...and CLEARLY is not functioning at 100% right now...listen, he has done a superb job, cleaning up what was left from trump's last and hopefully, only, time squatt...

Faith, Hope, and Reality

Hi...how are you? ...it's the time of the political season to look at things for real...we all make choices... most, could care less who the candidates are...it's the truth...most people vote for their side, regardless of the person nominated...the Democrats, and the Republicans ... 'I'll be damned if I ever vote for a _________________!' ....sure, it is a significant amount of voters, that do just that... Then, there are those in the middle...the 'swing voters'...that in many cases, decide the election ...this time, that number just may increase...so, in essence, each party is lobbying as hard as they can...for these voters...the undecided... Each candidate, at this time, has their negatives...this my fellow, Horse readers, is PRIOR to the actual conventions...that they have been named...might there by a change? ...I am going to lead you with a tickler...sure, there are reasons for the possibility of such a thing...yes, my good friends, all this time banter...

SUITS LIVES ON

Morning, all you crazy cats out there...it's a fine Sunday morning...overcast here in the Marina...shooting for a high of around 73*...just right ...it's a good day to do the catch ups...hit the super for the week's supplies...and generally, live the good life...that't right... On Netflix, they have been boasting a new 'Suits' . ..it is true sort of...as we had watched, what we thought was the finality of it...thru Season 8...there was another...and that is what we have tuned into...it's rad...missed them...just a hint for you fellow Suitites...there is a trump like person emerging...not the same gender...enjoy... A lot of mention to this thing...' Project 2025' ...even Bozo is trying to distance himself from it...the group behind it?...the Heritage Foundation...which is simply their idea of taking over the country to the ultra conservatives...threatening to fire 50,000 government workers, and replacing them with their own...in their circles, it is h...
