odds & ends

My, my, my, look who's wearing a mask. We should probably make an appointment at the nearest proctologist because someone obviously inserted their foot into the backside of THE LORD OF THE LIES and told him to quit being stupid. FYI....he wore a mask at a military hospital so let's see what happens this week when he visits non-government places. 
                                                                *******
I keep an eye on the cemetery across the street and notify the authorities if i see something strange going on and the other day i see two teens playing catch right in the middle of the grave markers. So i walk across and get ready to move them along by telling them to go play catch in the open field on the east end of the grounds and the one kid, very politely, tells me it's the anniversary of his dad dying four years ago and he and his brother always come over to play catch 'with dad' for about 20 minutes and he pointed to his grave marker. "He played catch with us every day for twenty minutes no matter how tired or sick he was when he got cancer and we're just returning the favor." I told them to enjoy their time and i had to leave because of the tears in my eyes.  must be allergies.
                                                            *******
My poll numbers are real bad and getting worse every day so...........................................let's blame DR. FAUCI!!!! He keeps making mistakes and changing his mind. gee, let's investigate why that happens. read on.
                                                                 *********
When i played high school football, water was TABOO 'because it would cause cramping' so instead of water, they gave you a handful of salt pills, pure sodium.

Nowadays, you won't see salt pills anywhere near a sports facility because they learned the dangers of sodium (strokes and high blood pressure to start) but in stark contrast, water is now available EVERYWHERE during practice because we know how important hydration is to the human body. 

WHY THE CHANGES? well, it's because doctors are learning all the time thru research and experience and when that happens, they change the protocol and procedures just like they've done with covid-19. Remember, six months ago this was an unknown disease and unknown in every way. 
                                                              *********
My mother used to make us wait three hours after eating lunch to go back swimming in Fox Lake because 'you'll get cramps and drown' but now they recommend a total of 30 minutes which includes eating time and the waiting time is for rest, not digestion. See? another medical improvement thru trial and error.
                                                             *******
Do donald's boys think that after serving five presidents and being world renowned as THE guy with infectious diseases, that fauci suddenly became the village idiot? I can help them with this one. The only idiot lives on Pennsylvania avenue and hasn't had a sit-down with the good doctor for more than two months. Maybe fauci could have explained it to him
                                                              **********
I'm reading the new JOHN BOLTON book and it is a very dry read so if you buy it, have a pen & pad with you because you'll need to jot down some names to keep track of everyone. He introduces about 35 people by their full name in the first part of the book and then refers to them in a shortened version. it can be more than a little confusing.

Bolton is very much a hawk and seemingly wants to end every disagreement with another country with all out attacks. He's more than a little scary and HATES ALL DEMOCRATS. According to bolton, the last good thing a democrat did was lose an election. And he treats trump like the village idiot (mentioned two paragraphs ago) with absolutely no respect and claims he knew right away that trump was a joke and unfit for office. 
                                                                *******
And the book by trump's niece just showed up so it's time to hunker down.
                                                              *******
Hockey playoffs start AUGUST 1. whaaaaaaaaaaaat? hockey in august. can't beat it.
                                                              *******
Just curious. What has happened to all the protest parades? 
                                                              *******
I see where 150 police officers in Minnesota have filed for permanent disability for PTSD because of the riots and abuse they faced. defund this.
                                                                 *******
I'm a little confused over this defunding issue. they want to take money out of the police budget and transfer it to pay for more social programs. But when you transfer those funds, you now have less money to train the police, which was one of the big complaints i heard during the marches, that cops needed more training.

NYPD has transferred ONE BILLION DOLLARS out of their budget and now what do you cut in the police department? squad cars? training courses? new officers? no overtime for investigations? specialized schooling? breathalyzers? crime photography? sexual assault investigations? less detectives? less patrol officers? you choose but be careful because it's a very slippery slope.
                                                           ********
Finally, next week we celebrate the 51st anniversary of NEIL ARMSTRONG walking on the moon and before the end of July, we celebrate the end of the Korean War in 1953 and birthdays for Linda Ronstadt, Don Knotts, Cat Stevens and Bill Clinton's good friend, MONICA LEWINSKY.
                                                            *******
ENJOY THE WEEK. WEAR A MASK AND COVER BOTH YOUR NOSE AND YOUR MOUTH.
