Hey, looky there - Move 2008 is old enough to drink! Heh heh. Oh, I crack me up!! Sorry, late Sat night humor after freezing my nose off at the Padres game with Sportsboy and his Miracle League group. Another loss of course. The Padres level of suckitude is reaching new highslows. The positive is... Continue Reading →
Rainy May Day. Politics, flowers & #$% cat!
Wouldn't you know that after I wrote yesterday's post, THE big political flub of the season came down. Of course, you could say that my one sentence on Hillary addressed that 🙂 However, yesterday was more than just making a fool of herself. Now, there has been plenty written and said about it already. And... Continue Reading →
This week in politics – (yawn) – Grey Matter & rain
We are kind of at the 1/2 way point in 2008 for the election season and I am....bored. Tired. Burnt out. Nothing new *really* happened this week other than more and more people now rather openly recognizing who the final two are (no, I do not mean David vs David!!) Obama and McCain have been...

And the winner is….
[redlasso id="69a40baf-c274-46d7-9020-8e17b39730df"] [redlasso id="10221fd6-7081-444d-871e-21af05a325dd"] As if you hadn't heard yet 🙂 Yeah yeah, I know I threw out a bunch of logic about how Archie would win and that would be best for Cook and blah blah blah. Yet, after sitting through the 2 hour show - which BTW, was pretty damn good - when... Continue Reading →
Just to satisfy the google searches
And because I am trying to avoid surfing the 'net while watching the AI finale, yet it is odd to watch and not blog....here is a picture of trees that flower (top 5 search hit). My favorite and a so cal staple, the jacaranda: A gorgeous tree that lines older streets in So Cal just... Continue Reading →
Goodbye Mi-KEY. Hello Cooperstown.
Yesterday, one of the greatest hitting catchers of all time announced his retirement. Mike Piazza. Mi-KEY to me. He started off as an LA Dodger back when I still claimed to be bleeding Dodger Blue. My love of the Dodgers was waning as I had been in San Diego long enough that the Padres were... Continue Reading →
American Idol – The Finals – David vs David
Let's get ready to Rummmmmmmmble!!! (ok, had to do that since they had the wrestling announcer guy on to do the introductions) So this is it. For the first time since Season 2, I really don't care who wins!! I could argue cases for both of them. Knowing the body of work from both of... Continue Reading →
Fascinating fact for the day
Check out this article on the analysis of the above signatures. The very last tidbit is the one that I thought was pretty fascinating: But, interestingly enough, Obama and McCain are lefties -- just like four out of five US presidents immediately before them: Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George Bush Sr and Bill Clinton. Lefties... Continue Reading →
Perhaps I was not clear
Some time last year, and I think I blogged about this but I am too lazy to look it up, I saw an article in Oprah's magazine about women who had chosen not to color over their gray hair. It cemented my decision not to color my hair as it slowly shows some gray because... Continue Reading →
Basketball Pole 1 – Sportsboy 0
What happens when you are playing "bump out" on the school basketball court at recess and you get hit in the face with a stray soccer ball from the field which causes you to turn your head quickly in reaction to the soccer ball thump only to smash directly into the basketball pole? You get... Continue Reading →
