Well….if you’ve been here before, you’ve seen the long running series on musicians who use the Hammond B-3 organ in their bands…haven’t seen any new ones in a while but I just turned on PBS and they have a Joe Bonamassa concert on and on the stage there is a B-3…so…add another one to the B-3 count….

April 30th
Well…running a little early today with Man U starting early….still feel crappy today but not as bad as yesterday…so far…just feel off and I know I don’t like it…it’s just exhausting….but, it is raining so it looks like I won’t be out on the bike until later if I get out at all…I am still sore everywhere so there will be a need for some ibuprofen in a little while…..and I do have to work on the bike today but that will come after the F1 race that is going to start in a few minutes….I do need to clean the kitchen today but that will be about it…..more later….
A few things…
Well….have been feeling like crap all day today and it appears that I have another bug to go along with the one I just got over a few days back….feel warm and I’m coughing again…and almost didn’t get on the bike today I had so little energy….but, I sucked it up and got a ride in but have done little else the rest of the day….I did want to mention that I am down to only 350 miles left to go to get to 30K on the bike…I bent the front sprocket working on the front shifter yesterday and I will have to fix that…but, it looks like rain tomorrow so I’ll have the whole day to take car of that…should only take a minute or so….okay, now I have a bad headache, too, so it must be another bug…crap….
April 29th
Well….moving a little slow today with it being a long one yesterday…I did win at pool and then went out to have a couple with K and then back here for a couple of cocktails…and the coffee is not done yet so I am just beginning to wake up….still hurt like crazy for walking the bike back Wed and I hope that ends soon….and my allergies are going crazy…saw a report on tv that said the pollen is the worse it’s been in years….hope the 2+ inches of rain we’re supposed to get over the weekend helps that some….still have to wait for the temp to come up to get on the bike…it’s only 45 right now and I refuse to be cold any more…..I do need to clean today but my motivation is gone so maybe not….more later….
April 28th
Well….it was another wasted day yesterday but I felt crappy most of the day so I guess that is why….still need to eat more but I just don’t care to lately….I am still really sore from all the walking the other day and I think I’ll take something for it in a little while…I need to get out to get a new back tire for the bike since the blowout split the one that was on it…I think it was failing anyway and the thumping on the smooth parts of the trail was getting really annoying….I do want to get out on the bike today but it is only 44 degrees right now and that is just too damn cold….and it is going to get even colder next week…and it’s May…almost….doesn’t look like I’ll get much more done today but that’s okay…more later….
Trump really is this damn dumb…
Well…I would find this funny if it wasn’t so damn scary…staffers talking off the record yesterday have found that it now their job to “talk him out of doing crazy things” and they have found the only way to get him to listen to anything is to only give him one course of action since he is just too damn dumb to sort out competing ideas and make decisions…he only wants one idea and then the only thing that concerns him is how the media is going to react…not what the policy implications are…but how the media is going to react. These leaks from the inside show all of us that no matter how stupid trump makes himself look whenever he does an interview, he is really even much more dumb than he looks…shouldn’t there be a minimum IQ for anyone running for and serving as *president? Impeach…
More tax cuts for the rich…
Well…it wasn’t any surprise when the idiot trump unveiled his “tax reform” plan and it gives all of the tax cuts to the rich…what did you expect? Here’s the kicker…his treasury secretary won’t even promise that middle class taxes won’t go up…yep, you heard it….the rich are going to get 250 billion dollars a year in tax cuts while you and I are going to be asked to pay for them…so, get out your checkbook, chumps…the idiot you voted for, who promised you “yuuuuuge” tax cut is going to raise your taxes and put the money right into his pocket. Do you feel screwed yet? You’re going to lose your healthcare and now you are going to pay more in taxes since you believed this idiot….will this change anyone’s mind that voted for trump? Nope…they are just too damn dumb to see it…impeach…
April 27th
Well…I knew I was going to be sore this morning….but my right calf is screaming at me and it is much worse than I expected….oh, well….not going to ride today since I need a new tire and I don’t feel like going to get one….slept okay last night but just feel fatigued this morning and I know it’s from not eating enough…..it’s funny how many new muscles you use when walking the bike instead of riding it…I even hurt in my hands….didn’t get a lot else done yesterday…I may get the kitchen done today but I need to cook so I may do that instead….okay…need more coffee and to read some news….more later….
This week just keeps getting worse…
Well…this crappy week just keeps getting worse…on top of all the other stuff that has happened…today the new tube in the back tire blew…and it was only a week old….blew the tire off the rim and damn near pitched me off…but that’s not the worst of it…it happened the farthest away that I can get on my ride…and that made for a 5 1/2 mile walk back here pushing the thing that left me with blisters on almost every toe and calves that are screaming at me…didn’t do my back any good, either…and I am now sitting here in pain and hoping that it rains for the next three days until I heal up….what a week…..
What a frickin double standard…
Well…as you remember from the last election, the media went nuts about the Clinton foundation, ignoring the good that it does and the fact that it had been audited multiple times and found to be following every law that governs foundations….but, that didn’t matter to the media or to the right…with the media colluding with the right to push the rumors and innuendo that damaged Clinton. Now, I wonder if the right is going to say anything at all about the revelations that Ivanka Trump has a new foundation that she is funding by gifts from other governments and from shady billionaires from around the world. Yep, you heard that right…the WH special assistant to the idiot president is out there soliciting bribes that are disguised as “donations” to her new foundation whose purpose is going to remain secret if she is anything like her idiot father….let’s tell this like it is…this is just another slush fund where the trumps are enriching themselves by their government positions…clear violations of the Hatch act and probably many other felonies…but do the repubs in the House care, and are they going to do anything about it? Nope…they are all a part of this scam and they all should be in jail…impeach…
