Well…there is so much hype building about Thursday’s Comey testimony to the senate, I think it’s time to throttle that back a little…I’m pretty sure that there are not going to be any bombshells in the testimony given that Comey is not going to want to screw up the investigation for Mueller by saying anything that may interfere with that investigation…I think it will be more that “yes he met with the idiot trump” but there will be not much else in it…he will let Mueller build the case that he knows is there for obstruction of justice. On that note, we have trump having Tom Cotton and Marco Rubio to the WH tonight to coordinate the obstruction….since Cotton and Rubio are going to be two senators that are going to be asking Comey questions Thursday…anyone want to bet that all of their questions are going to be about the bad, bad leaks that are the real problem? One thing to watch for is the threat that the idiot trump made to live tweet Comey’s testimony to try to call him a liar, I guess….that could be fun to see….stay tuned….impeach…

The 110 billion dollar deal that wasn’t…
Well…as the liar in chief and village idiot trump embarrassed us with his tour of Europe last week, he shot his big mouth off saying that he had brokered a deal to sell 110 billion dollars in weapons to Saudi Arabia…and it is the greatest, bigliest deal ever….but, there is one little problem with that…there is no deal…there are no contracts, there is no senate approval…no nothing…in fact this great deal is just agreements to start talking about maybe selling some new weapons to the Saudis…and all of it was started under the Obama administration…you miss him yet? So, as always, trump lied…and one good thing is that the media is starting to call this crap what it is…lies, lies, and more lies….and the world is starting to get it too, with the UK and Germany saying that they can’t trust a word that trump says so they are not going to pay any attention to him….understand that…the rest of the world has trump’s number and know that is useless to listen to anything he says…really making America great again….impeach…
June 6th
Well….running a little early today and it’s because I’ve been up since 5:30…another night of crappy sleep and I am feeling it right now….didn’t get a lot done yesterday since I didn’t feel that great most of the day and I’m not sure why…had no energy and a cough but the cough is gone today…so far…so I’m not sure what the heck is happening….maybe not eating enough again? Just don’t feel like it…but I will try to do better today…I am going to get the motivation to clean some today after the workout and bike….but I need more coffee and to work out the kinks first….it’s a bitch being creaky in the mornings….more later…..
Muskrats pushing rafts….
Well…just can’t get my brain working to do some political stuff right now so I thought I’d just do another one on some weird trail stuff from earlier in the week…a few days back, while I was riding past one of the retention ponds along M-6 I noticed a pair of muskrats pushing rafts of some kind of vegetation across the pond…not sure why they were doing it but it was strange to see…maybe food? Who knows? At least it took my mind off the idiot in the WH for a few minutes….
June 5th
Well….feel pretty crappy this morning and I wonder if it’s a day that I can take off and not work out and ride….slept really crappy last night and was up at 5:30 so I’m hoping there will be a nap involved later this morning….lost my earplugs overnight and I think that is part of it…haven’t been taking anything for the allergies and I think I should be…my head is filled up this morning and the headaches are starting…had one yesterday that felt like a stroke it hurt so much for a couple of minutes….didn’t get anything done yesterday but I am going to try to do the kitchen today…but maybe not…we’ll see….
Some things from the trail…
Well…there were a couple of things that happened on the trail today that I almost forgot about….not sure why that would be but I’m not going to dwell on it….at the top of the first climb that goes to the highest point along M-6…where I make my first water stop…I looked off in the distance and there was a helicopter hovering maybe a couple of thousand feet in the air…I watched it for a few minutes and it just stayed in one place until it moved off….not sure why it would do that since it was not carrying anything that I could see…oh, well…the next thing was that I came on a garter snake that was just warming itself on the pavement…and, of course, I had to pick it up…I just love the way snakes feel..that silky feeling…when I grabbed him, I broke into laughing since he tried to bite me multiple times…I’m not sure if he realized that he has no teeth or fangs or that his head is about the size of my pinkie fingernail but he kept it up until I grabbed him behind his head…then he calmed down and just looked at me while flicking his tongue……a pretty cool encounter…l made sure he was safe in the weeds when I let him go….I’m not sure why I didn’t remember this stuff until right now…..
An interesting team….
Well….I know I’m running late for the second one today but just couldn’t find something that interested me…..but, with reading an article on Mueller’s team that is investigating trump and his cronies, I found it. Just a little thing, really…but one I found quite telling…on the team that Mueller has assembled, you find the requisite amount of lawyers, but one is not a lawyer but is a history professor…whose specialty is…wait for it…impeachment. So, we know where Mueller thinks this is going, or why include an impeachment specialist? I am now allowing myself to have hope for this country and that trump and his cronies are going to end up in jail…where they belong…impeach…
June 4th
Well…running a little late today…just can’t get started but the coffee is helping…a little…slept okay last night but there were no dreams to speak of….I’m still struggling with back pain today but don’t have too much other pain…I did go hard on the bike yesterday and I’m feeling that today….didn’t win the powerball last night but no one else did either…so it will be almost 400 mil for weds…..didn’t clean yesterday but will do that today….the kitchen is littered with dead ants that need to be gone and the surfaces need to be cleaned, too…so that will be the goal for the day…..it’s already over 65 so I can get on the bike as soon as I want…but there needs to be more coffee before that…more later….
America’s Cup…
Well…as you know, I sometimes like kind of weird sports…having a had a big thing for curling a few weeks back and even watching some cricket sometimes…and I just discovered another one…kind of obscure, for me anyway…just the other day I came across sailing for the America’s Cup and, while I have watched it before when they used the big, monohull boats, I have never seen the type of sailboats they are using now. These boats are catamarans but their cool part is they use hydrofoils that lift the boats 4 feet out of the water and make so they can go almost 50 miles an hour. And I am hooked again…watching it again right now for the challenger’s trials and then in two weeks will be the US against the world…should be fun….
June 3rd
Well….running about on time today for this, but I’ve been up since really early and just can’t get started….just poured the first cup of coffee and had the first sip so I guess I’ll have to wait a while….had a nice day yesterday with a top down run out and back for pool…which ended up in a tie for the first time in a while…even got a little color from the drive even with sunscreen on….and that won’t help to even out the bike tan that is looking quite weird…don’t have a lot to do today other than clean and watch the champions league final this aft…but that will be later, now I need to have more coffee and get ready to get on the bike….more later….
