September 4th

Well…still not feeling too hot today and that will be three days now…not sure what is going on but it has gotten really annoying…didn’t get a lot done yesterday and it looks the same for today…I do have some work to do and there are lots of races on so I think it may be a semi veg day today after the bike ride….I will go over 2K miles this morning and it looks like an average year this year…haven’t done a lot of double stints since I just don’t feel like it for some reason…not too sore today but I do need the pain killers before the bike ride since I have pain in my right forearm that feels like tendonitus…..and I don’t need to aggravate it….okay…need to get back to the F1 race and have more coffee….more later….

This isn’t equivalent…

Well….with the news media trying it’s best to gin up some scandal about the Clinton Foundation, they are ignoring a real, true scandal happening at the Trump Foundation…a scandal that, if it happened by the efforts of the Clintons, would spawn a least a dozen congressional investigations. The particulars of the Trump scandal is that they actually laundered money through the foundation to bribe the AG of Florida to drop her investigation of Trump U….and the Trump folks admitted they did it and paid a fine…now, how are these two things equivalent? The Clinton Foundation gets the highest ranking by two different organizations that rate non-profits for it’s work and transparency, while the Trump slush fund makes illegal donations (bribes) and gives money to Trump’s cronies and the media treat it if they are doing the same things….who are running these news organizations to have them act this way? I am really tired of this crap going on….where the repubs can do whatever they want and never get called on it and then the media (I’m talking to you AP) fakes “scandals” that supposedly involve dems and run with those stories….geez…

September 3rd

Well….man…I still feel pretty crappy today and can’t figure out what the heck is going on…oh, I did win at pool and had fun doing it….I think I may not be eating enough, again, so today there are going to be no limits on what I eat…other than the years of limiting my caloric intake…that may be hard to overcome….it is pretty cool outside so I do need to wait until after F1 qualifying to get out on the bike….but I do need to get out right after since Michigan plays at noon and I want to see that…will have to see if I can find my gear to wear…and I hope they play better than State did last night…they just looked pretty bad…I did watch the season finale of Roadies last night and I am trying to figure out what it is about the show that I like so much…might have to do one of these later to explain it…don’t have a lot to do today other than sports so I think it will be pretty much of a veg day after the bike ride and I don’t mind that….more later…

September 2nd

Well…it wasn’t a bad day yesterday other than I didn’t feel too hot all day and that is a little better today….just not eating enough and that screws everything up……I did get out to see T for a couple yesterday aft and it is always good to see her…she has lots of cool things going on at work and it was good to see her have her sparkle back again….it was kind of nice to have it in the 50′s this morning but I have to wait for the temp to come up to get out on the bike…but, I really don’t have anything to do this morning so that’s okay…going to keep it low key today…other than pool….it looks like a quite quiet weekend with the holiday and all but college football starts tonight with State playing and then Michigan tomorrow…so I will have stuff to do…more later….

The media is in the tank…

Well…I am so damn frustrated with the media lately and the low, low bar they set for  the Donald…a bar so low that I heard one pundit describe it as a paint line on the parking lot….that was shown in all it’s glory yesterday with the idiot’s trip to Mexico when they said he looked “presidential” by just standing there and looking like the idiot he is…and none of the media called out his lies when he said that the subject of the wall he wants to build never came up…and then the president of Mexico made a statement that it did…who are you going to believe? The serial liar, Trump, or the president of Mexico? And after all that “presidential” nonsense…ole Donald gave the most racist, crazy speech that he has ever given and lied some more saying that Mexico will pay for the wall “100%”. Now, I know the media has a vested interest in keeping the race close, but to be deliberately in the tank for one candidate, especially one who is so insane as Trump, is just journalistic malpractice writ large….geez….

September 1st

Well…running really late today and I think it’s because I did a huge grocery run…spent 75 bucks on nothing and I’m not sure how that continues to happen….oh, well….I did get a bunch of stuff done yesterday so there’s not a lot to do today…I am going to meet up with T later to have a couple before she heads up north but that is all the plans for the day…it felt good to have a clean car with the top down going out for groceries….finally got the haze off the inside of the glass that was irritating the heck out of me…but it took a lot of ammonia….haven’t been feeling all that hot the past couple of days and I’m not sure what it is…don’t think it’s a bug…could be allergies but who knows? The weather seems to have changed overnight and it is pretty cool outside…will make for a good ride today and I need to get to it…so I will…more later….

Last one for the month…

Well…another month without any fillers and I feel pretty good about that…I wonder if I should thank Trump for giving me some really easy topics? Nope..you can’t thank an idiot for being one….I am waiting for the news reports of his trip to Mexico today…it should go really, really well…snark….I have been getting a bunch of stuff done the past few days and that continued today with cleaning the kitchen some, doing some laundry, and cleaning and waxing the car….but now is down time for me and I just want to take it easy for a while….even made some cash today which is cool, and I am going to make a little more tomorrow so there will be food again this week….I do need a new trash can and to replace some t-shirts that have started to fall apart due to me sweating…it cuts through them like acid and they have them on sale at Target so I need to go there tomorrow…not today since I don’t want to do anything else today…..okay, need more water and to take a nap….no more until next month….

August 31st

Well….spent the night last night watching the show “Roadies” and I really like it…very good character development and stories….give it a try…..it was another work day yesterday trying to get everything done that I needed to and I did…so today will be just a cleaning and laundry day but I’m not sure how much of that I’ll get done…my ribs have hurt the past few days and I really can’t figure out how I hurt them….so back to the painkillers for the bike ride today….and I need to use up the bagels that I bought last week before the smoked fish goes bad…and I need more coffee, too…..yep… as you can see…I’m all over the place today and can’t really focus…I did have the weird squiggly lines in my vision yesterday that usually come before a migraine but no headache at all…maybe it’s a tumor…who knows?

A new signal….

Well…for the second day in a row, I am not going to write anything about the idiot Trump…and I feel better for it. There was a little excitement in the science community the other day about a signal that a Russian telescope picked up back in 2015 that might be from extraterrestrials…..yeah, I know, the WOW signal was thought to be one, too, a few years back and nothing came from it….but some of the scientists that saw the data have recommended that we monitor the star that the signal came from constantly so we don’t miss another one if there is one…that would be pretty cool if it was a real signal…and in my lifetime…and the star is only 95 light years away in our galaxy…but that means any signal would have left there 95 years ago and any signal from here takes 95 years to get back there…but, the bubble of our radio noise is already out almost that far so maybe they can pick up some of our early radio shows from the 30′s…who knows? Okay…now that was something interesting to write about…politics is burning me out….

What you never want to be….
