Well..running a little early today with not sleeping too well last night…I’ve already been up an hour and a half but just now getting moving…hope it’s not that I’m getting older…I know I am but I don’t want that to be the reason….had an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…I did get a bike ride in but I’m not sure about that today…it’s cold out there and the wind is already almost 20 and I’m not sure I want another brutal ride…..not too sore today but my face got sandblasted on the bike yesterday and it hurts today…and I think I have a cold…my lungs have been iffy all morning and the coughing is back…okay…not going to bitch any more…need coffee and some news…more later….

May 21st
Well…running a little late today but there is no reason for it….watching the MotoGP race and that is a good distraction to start the day…it’s the last day of the BPL season and Man U plays this morning some time so I’ll have to look that up…feel okay today but my system is in knots today since I had some peanuts over the past few days and that is never a good idea….not sure why I keep doing that when I know I’ll pay for it…my back hurts on both sides now and I’m not sure why that is…but the pain is not too bad so I guess I can live with it….have to decide if I want to get on the bike today or not…it’s raining right now and I’ll have to get out in the next half hour or so or wait until after Man U plays…I do need to clean today but I’m not sure if I will or not…just can’t get motivated….more later….
May 20th
Well….still waiting for it to warm up enough to get out on the bike…and it’s the end of frickin May….that irritates the heck out of me…oh, I did win at pool yesterday….slept okay last night and I’m not too sore today so I think I’ll skip the ibuprofen and see how it feels…only got to put the top down on the way out with it raining after we were done….I do need to get under the car and lube the parking brake system since it froze up on me yesterday..l haven’t done that since I got the car and I probably should have…but, not today….not going to do much today except watch qualifying from Indy and clean…..more later….
Starting to feel like Watergate….
Well….this is a real red letter day…I never do three of these on Friday but this thought just struck me and I thought I’d get it down before too many cocktails….With the steady drip, drip, drip of revelations of criminal behavior by the idiot trump’s administration and those in the repub leadership that aided in his criminality, this whole episode is starting to feel a lot like how Watergate unfolded. I was old enough to have lived through that one…I was working at Imperial Motors in downtown GR as a parts driver at the time and I remember that every lunch hour, we would sit behind the parts counter and watch the hearings on a little portable tv that one of the guys brought in….and every day there was another little bombshell that filled in the picture of Nixon and his henchmen and how they tried to subvert justice….this same thing is happening now and I find myself glued to Twitter and Kos to see the latest in this sordid trump story….and the latest tonight, that Jared Kushner is the latest person of interest in the investigation…and that never ends well…so, it looks like the investigators are getting there…I would advise Jared to just stay in Europe…or maybe Kazakhstan…I don’t think they have an extradition treaty with the US….impeach….
A few things…
Well…as you have seen if you’ve been here before, I normally don’t come back for a second one of these on Fridays…after shooting pool and drinking beer, I just don’t have the motivation to do a second one…but, I’m sitting here waiting for it to be cocktail time and just read about a couple of things that I wanted to comment on…first, a story just came out that the staffers in the WH have been researching impeachment like crazy over the past few days and I find that just so damn funny…I wonder if it’s to defend against it or how to make it happen? Whatever it is, it is never a good sign when your staff is starting to think impeachment is a real possibility. Then there is the hot mike moment when Paul Ryan and his partners in crime were caught talking about the idiot trump and his collusion with Russia…showing that they knew that Russia was meddling in the election and did nothing about it since trump was being helped…and Ryan was heard telling everyone to keep it a secret since they were “family”….now, this lays this conspiracy right at the feet of repub leaders…I’ll bet McConnell new about it, too….and these guys should really worry about this since they could be spending time with trump in prison….okay, I guess I can hope that this will happen…impeach….
May 19th
Well…running late this morning and it is because I was watching “Wheeler Dealers”…they had a Miata that they were restoring and it kind of sucked me in….my back is better and I’m not sure why that is….haven’t been able to get it to crack so it should still hurt…weird…did get a nice bike ride in yesterday but the wind was brutal…and today is too darn cold to go out until later so I think I’ll just take it easy this morning and ease into the day…just got the first cup of coffee and I am sure I’ll need more than that….feeling a little slow this morning….I did start to clean a little yesterday but I don’t think I’ll do much today with pool this aft….more later….
Trump is a five year old…
Well….after all of the news that the NATO allies are keeping their interactions with the idiot trump to under 4 minutes so he won’t lose interest, we now know what his aides have to do to get him to even read any of his briefing papers…his aides have to put his name in every paragraph so he will continue to read them…yep, this frickin idiot won’t read anything unless it’s about him…no national security briefing, no nothing unless it has trump’s name in it…this is the smartest, bestest president….if the *president was a damn 5 year old…impeach….
May 18th
Well….running a little late today and you know why…it’s grocery day and I tried to not spend much this week..and I think I was successful…slept okay last night but a damn spider woke me up at 2 am and I had a hard time getting back to sleep…but, I did get the top down over and back to the grocery store this morning so I guess that checks the crappy sleep….my back seems to be better this morning…that really started yesterday and it was okay on the bike even so I am happy with that…I can’t believe how dirty my car is even after the rains so I think I’ll have to wash it in the morning…can barely see out of the windows and I just hate that…. going to clean some today since I really don’t have a lot else to do….more later…..
117 days to a special counsel…
Well…if you didn’t already think that the idiot trump’s administration wasn’t the most corrupt in the history of the US, you just have to look at the events that happened today. After only 117 days in office, a special counsel was appointed today to look into all of the Russian connections with trump’s campaign and the obstruction of justice that was reveled by James Comey last week. Now, a cynic would think the the acting AG in this matter was helping trump out by slowing down the current investigations with this appointment…but who he appointed spells dire trouble for trump and his cronies. The appointment went to a former FBI director, Robert Mueller, who has shown that he has the integrity and the non-partisanship to ensure that the investigation will be fair and thorough. So, run for the hills, trump…you’r going down…..
Tired of trump…
Well….I am just shaking my head at the idiot trump’s behavior at the Coast Guard academy graduation today where he went on and on about himself and whined through the entire speech that “no politician in history has bee treated worse or more unfairly than me”, and he continued to complain all the way through it…not the uplifting speech you would expect to hear…not that the graduates are starting out on a journey of service to their country and their sacrifices are appreciated…nope, just how put upon the idiot trump is…and this is the guy who said he respected the military “bigly” and that no one was better for the military than him….all just lies…and he again uses the military as props for his own aggrandizement….isn’t anyone else tired of this schtick by now? Impeach….
