April 16th

Well…not sure if I’m running late or not but I guess it doesn’t matter…slept okay last night but feel a little strange today and I hope that goes away after I have coffee…it was a completely wasted day yesterday with the races and other sports on and today will be the same with going out for pool later…it was really a pain with all of the ice yesterday and today it’s going to snow more…I really can’t describe how depressing it is to have the highs be in the 30′s until wed…it is the middle of April, after all, and I need it to get warmer…but, it looks like the weather is going to break later in the week and even be in the 60′s next week….not sure if I’m going into shorts for the year next week or not but I don’t think I’ve ever waited until May….not much to do today…just need the coffee to work and then we’ll see how it goes…more later….

Cohen’s friends….

Well…I guess it can be said that morons hang around with morons if you look at the picture of Michael Cohen and some of his cronies sitting around smoking cigars at some hotel in NY Friday….these morons know that Cohen has been under investigation for months now for his shady business dealings and yet, there they are, sitting out in public just daring the FBI to find out who they are and then investigate them, too. Now, if someone I knew was under FBI scrutiny, the last thing I would do would be pallin’ around with him, or taking his phone calls…and the thought comes to me that his biggest buddy, the idiot trump should really be worried since I’m sure there have been wiretaps involved and he just can’t shut his big trap. Here’s the kicker….even before the raid on Cohen, the FBI had enough evidence to convince a judge that Cohen was committing or had committed crimes….and, I think this really spells the end for the idiot in chief no matter what he does…after all, he can’t fire the entire justice department and even if they can’t indict him when in office, the charges will be waiting for him when he is finally thrown out…he IS going to jail….impeach…

April 15th…continued….

Well…just took a look at the first one of the day and felt I needed to come back to add to it since it was so short….Just went out to clean the ice and snow off the car since the rain seems to be ending and it is warm enough for it to melt…just took some sheets of ice off it that are 3/8 to a half an inch thick and I am really damn tired of this crap…and it looks like I won’t be back on the bike until Wed since it is going to be cold enough that all this crap won’t melt off the trail until then… and, I’m sure I don’t like having to hibernate halfway through April….one good thing is my eyes seem to be better today and my allergies are not as bad as they were yesterday….the tv even looked blurry yesterday and that is a little concerning….okay, need to go back to the race so I’ll end this one here…I am going to do another one in a few minutes….

April 15th

Well…running really late today with having to melt the ice off the car so I could go out and get the paper…man, I’m getting damn tired of there being no spring this year…slept okay last night and don’t feel too bad this morning but I do feel like my allergies are going crazy…the effect has been terrible for my eyes with them being itchy and full of crap….didn’t do anything yesterday but cook and that looks like what will happen today, too….just a little depressed and unmotivated so I think I’ll just let the day flow a little with no thoughts of what I should do….there are a couple of races on this aft and Man U plays at 11 so I shouldn’t be too bored…..more later…..

Cohen was in Prague…

Well….with all of the news of more and more scandals involving the idiot boy trump, I think this little bit of news is the most important..there is now news that Mueller has evidence that trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, who has denied and lied about meeting with the Russians in Prague…WAS there…and this evidence is just another confirmation that the Steele dossier is accurate…no matter how much the right continues to lie about it and call it a fabrication. I think this information comes from the raid on Cohen’s offices and, in particular from a burner phone that this moron kept after getting back to the US. I find it funny that Cohen took a picture of his passport to try to “prove” that he wasn’t in the Czech Republic….and he felt that no one would know that you can move between any of the EU countries without a passport, since that is one of the whole ideas behind the EU…now, the only thing left to do is to figure out who Cohen met with and get that evidence….I wonder if it is a coincidence that the head of the Russian hacking operation was there at the same time? Yeah, right…impeach…

April 14th

Well…easing into the day again and that makes me a little late today…slept in until 7:20 and just had my first sip of coffee….I like the days that I have fresh coffee and this is one of those…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get out to see K for a couple and it was the first time in a long time….have been in a lot lately and I do need to change that….how, I’m not sure but I’ll think about it…got a nice bike ride in but will be off it at least until Tuesday with the weather we are going to see…waiting for the ice storm to start and I hope I don’t lose power…supposed to get almost 3/4 of an inch of ice and, with the wind howling at 30 with 50 mph gusts, it could get ugly later….didn’t get much done yesterday and I am not motivated to do much today….will probably clean some in the kitchen or maybe get rid of some cobwebs but that will be about it…more later…

The toddler in chief strikes again…

Well….if any of you out there have kids, you recognize the idiot trump’s behavior as that of a toddler….with his short attention span and lack of the ability to think about the consequences of his actions. After his tough guy act where he imposed tariffs on China without ever thinking what the response would be…and the effects now being felt by farmers across the country who are losing money and in danger of going bankrupt, the idiot boy wants to undo his first act in office; pulling the US out of the TPP….to try to help these same farmers that he has crapped on. And guess what? The other countries that are party to the trade agreement have said “no thanks” and have refused to even entertain re-opening the pact since trump insulted all of them and is so unstable that there just is no point in even talking to him. How’s that for making America great again? When can we be rid of of this idiot? Impeach…

April 13th

Well…man, just can’t get started this morning…and there is really no reason for it…just feel slow and need to ease into things I guess….slept okay last night but lost an earplug overnight and couldn’t find it…but, that’s not unusual….I did get out and have a nice HH with T yesterday and had lots of fun….and I got out on the bike in shorts yesterday but it looks like I won’t get out again until Tuesday or so with the ice storm that is coming over the weekend…so, I think I’ll just hunker down, stay warm, and watch sports…..I did have the top down on the car yesterday and that was cool….but, it looks like a while before that will happen again….it is cool that I really don’t have to be anywhere….not much to do today…will probably clean some if I don’t get on the bike…the wind is already over 20 right now and I just don’t want to do that much work…..more later….

April 12th

Well….got the grocery run done on time today and now it’s time for news…but first, slept okay last night but feel a little warm this morning and I think I have a bug…didn’t feel that hot yesterday and that continues this morning…but, I am going to try to burn it out on the bike today…it is already almost 50 so I am going to get out in shorts in a few minutes….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but fixing the water pipe noises that have been bugging me for a week….and today looks like just a little light cleaning until I meet up with T later….my heel has been hurting the past few days but it doesn’t this morning and that is a little weird but I’ll take it….might even wash the car if it is going to dry up this morning…it needs it’s spring wax job but I’m not sure if I’m motivated enough to do that….more later…

Good riddance…..

Well…my day brightened up considerably a few minutes ago when it was announced that Paul Ryan is not going to run for his house seat this fall….okay, that’s an understatement…I’m grinning about this and all I have to say is good riddance to the smarmy little granny killer. This idiot has been on the wrong side of every issue…and was instrumental in the great tax scam giveaway from last year where the rich and corporations were showered with money and the rest of us were left with nothing…and, he is going to use the next 8 months to try to gut SS by lying that SS has anything to do with the deficit…when even saint Ronnie of Reagan pointed out that they are completely different funds, and that cuts to SS payouts will only go into the SS trust fund, not into the general fund…so there would be absolutely no effect on the deficit. This is just one of the bits of hypocrisy that this empty suit has foist on the country…to get to the core of Ryan’s lyin…you just have to remember his washing clean pots and pans at at homeless shelter during his campaign for VP just so he could get a photo op…that is his entire tenure…just one big photo op and stealing for the 1%….good riddance….
