A few items and tidbits while wondering how fast this year is going by. We’re already into Lent and Daylight Savings Time, and it seems like I just put the damned Christmas decorations away.
Don’t have much to say about the whole Russia/Ukraine thing except to say the world is a dangerous place filled with all kinds of creeps and the only way to keep them from getting too frisky is to project strength. Like, to start, mean what you say and say you mean. Of course, with this president everything he says is either an outright lie or has an expiration date on it based on political expediency. So it’s no surprise that Mr. “Nobel Peace Prize” has become a doormat for every tin-pot dictator.
…say, I wonder if that means they’re all racists too?
Great to hear that Jim Bacchi and his Tikiyaki Orchestra concept is still out there and going strong. He’s pushing a new Tikiyaki 5-0 version. One of these days I’d love to hear them play live.
…say, maybe I can “Book ’em, Dano” for the Goodboys Invitational weekend when we have our 25th year bash planned for 2015!
This could be good news. Anytime you get a El Nino going that means more monsoon moisture for the Southwest. Could be a great year for thunderstorms with some actual rain events – bring it on. The West is already having a rough year drought-wise, so any help we can get from Ma Nature would be most appreciated.
Here’s a a happy story that I know frequent commenter Jana will like. There should be more stories like this out there but folks prefer the nasty and negative, I guess.
We’re just one month away from the start of the Masters and it’s anyone’s guess as to which Tiger Woods is going to show up – the one with the bad back, or the one with the balky putter, or the one spraying his driver all over the place like a skunk in heat. Look, I know and respect what the guy’s done and what he’s capable of doing; I’m just seeing someone who doesn’t seem capable of putting four solid rounds together. To me, if his name wasn’t Tiger Woods he’d sure look like a very ordinary golfer out there on Tour.
Just remember that no matter what anyone says, Obamacare was passed and implemented by Democrats without a single Republican vote. How’s that working out for you, Democrats?
I did like the dolphin story….they are such amazing creatures and very intelligent.
Maybe once I am drawing social security (in 4 weeks) I can save up some money to come out and visit. In the meantime…..what about SKYPE????
