that feeling you get when you finally get the truth

so my sister got our father's medical records yesterday. i copied them to my computer and started reading through a few of the nearly 2,000 pages. let me just say, the poems will be writing themselves for the rest of my life. a treasure trove of information. plus, it reaffirmed my thoughts on the funeral. it was all a joke. people were telling me what they thought i wanted to hear. the files showed me the truth. he was the same prick at death that he was 25 fucking years earlier. that's a much different picture than they painted at the funeral. he never was a saint. never fucking close to it. and the parts of when dementia was setting in were the best. i know i am an asshole for taking delight in the misery of others. but i now can look back on washing my father's feet in church one evening with much less horror now knowing that one day that fucker would believe there was a secret worm inside of him making him shit his pants.

mom decided she wanted her birthday dinner at Outback Steakhouse. i hadn't been there in years. i got steak tacos as i decided i wanted to be different. they were excellent. overall, it was a pretty good dinner. we got there right before they got full of people, so that was good. after dinner, we went to Menards. i needed bird food and a new lamp for my desk. my sister got some things she needed and mom found a few things as well. everything had a 11% rebate on it, so that's good. after that, we went to get some gas for the car. mom and my sister are out driving the state today, sort of. down to IKEA to get some beds. and then to Columbus to drop them off and then back to the house. when my mother left this morning, i told her i'll see you at 6 tonight. that would be 9 hours after she left with my sister. sadly, she knew i was probably correct.

Copa America Update:
Colombia defeated Peru last night on penalty kicks. i felt bad for Peru, but ultimately the better team won. tonight Argentina takes on Venezuela and Chile takes on Mexico. should be two really good games.

Euro 2016 Update:
Spain took care of Turkey yesterday, 3-0. i got up this morning to see Belgium play Ireland. Belgium finally woke up and started playing like a good team. they won 3-0. Iceland is currently leading Hungary 1-0 at halftime. later today Portugal takes on Austria.

the New York Yankees won again last night, 8-2. two in a row, stop the presses. they will try to get back to .500 again by winning this afternoon.

NJPW was excellent last night. 2 hours of great wrestling.

VICE was enthralling last night. to have a reporter with ALS do a story on others with ALS, even some getting into the clinical trials she didn't get into, was amazing. i highly recommend the episode.

Dateline: On Assignment was good last night. i'm happy that David Letterman still has the same sense of humor.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

i may go outside and get a little sun while feeding the birds. but, i won't be out there for long. it's fucking hot this weekend. of course, The Air Show is happening, so that's how the weather usually is no matter when they have the show.

that's all for me kids. i hope you have a great Saturday. only fuck the ones that cough.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
