A Complete Unknown


Don't call me Roger Ebert...but, once in a while, the Horse gives ya'll reviews of thangs...this time a flick...'A Complete Unknown'...took us 3 days to watch it...ah, dinner interrupted the movie...and must say,  that I would give it an A-...the story line is all about Bob Dylan (Zimmerman) and partially, Joan Baez...the emergence of the main character in NYC...the actor, Timothy Chalamet, was spot on...did his own singing...of Dylan...and yes, it was as near as possible...he was nominated for best actor for the Oscar....did not see the other nominees, but, clearly, he could have won...didn't...

His name is really, that...although the spelling of Timothy is really Timothee...a US and France combo...for many of you youngins, he is dating one of them KFam gals...and yes, prior to this flick he too, was a complete unknown...

So, last eve...we listened to Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits...I have no vinyls of his...unless, Snooki stole one...and thoroughly enjoyed the songs...for some reason, more than I ever have...

The Grand Poopah is still over in Scotland...and is reportedly FUMING that the Epstein Files horror, is still that back in the states...such a class ass...er, act...or, arse...they don't want him, we don't want him...who wants him?...

trump bellowed out that 'Clinton had gone to the Epstein Island, 28 times'...wait...I thought you said there were no files....and now, you said that you read them?...all I can think of, is the song by the Knickerbockers...'Lies, Lies, Lies'...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
