not a bad way to start the weekend

i got up sort of early (or late) this morning and made some coffee. amazingly, my sister liked it. she's one of these snobs that drinks about a gallon of coffee a day. i just wanted to make sure i would be awake for the Manchester United game.

i was sort of leery about the game with Crystal Palace. they had been so bad this season, i could just see Manchester United not stepping on their throats and destroying them. thankfully, i had nothing to worry about. 3 minutes in, Juan Mata had already scored and the stroll in the park was on. United added 2 from Fellaini and 1 from Lukaku to comfortably win 4-0. that's an excellent way to head into the international break.

the New York Yankees got some great pitching yesterday (Tanaka with 15 strikeouts) and just enough clutch hits to defeat Toronto 4-0. Boston lost last night so the division lead is down to 2 with 2 games to play. yesterday was the first time the Yankees had won 90 games in 5 seasons. hopefully the Yankees get another win this afternoon.

the oil change for the car yesterday turned into a bit of a fiasco. apparently the brake lights weren't working and something was wrong with a tire. the guy was telling mom that you must have took it someplace to get a patch. mom went off saying that she bought the tires from where we were at and if there was any patch, it was done by your guys. that shut him up pretty quickly. about 45 minutes later, we were leaving. i had to sit and listen to Fox News for way too long while i was there. at least i understand why so much of this country is fucking stupid.

VICE was excellent last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher last night was fucking hilarious.

Room 104 was really good last night.

Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was about Jerry Lee Lewis last night. yet another great episode.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Felipe Esparza: Translate This, Saturday Night Live and ROH.

Ohio State plays at Rutgers tonight. they should win the game on talent alone, but i know that's a recipe for disaster.

i figure i will be flipping through a little baseball and college football for most of the day.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow after the New Orleans Saints play in London in the morning against the Dolphins.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

where did this month go...

i can't believe it's already near the end of September. of course, the closer you get to death, the faster the days go by.

i did type up the 5 poems i wrote yesterday late last night. i really like these poems. they will definitely be part of my first submissions of October.

the New York Yankees pissed away a 4-1 lead last night and lost to Tampa Bay 9-6. Boston lost as well last night, so their magic number to win the division is down to 1. so the Yankees chances are basically none now. so, hopefully they finish this last series against Toronto strong and ready for that wild card game. the Yankees play this afternoon.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

The Chris Gethard Show was great last night.

Better Things was very good last night.

Gotham was excellent last night.

Will & Grace was very funny last night. i can't believe it's been 11 damn years since the last show.

part 10 of The Vietnam War was just as sad as the other parts. i still am amazed that my father didn't die over there. either amazed or disappointed. i highly recommend this series to anyone who would like to learn a few things on a pointless war that lasted 30 fucking years.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW, Real Time with Bill Maher, Room 104 and Mike Judge Presents: Tales From the Tour Bus.

i will be on here sometime tomorrow after Manchester United plays.

mom's appointment this morning went well. both of her eyes are looking good and her vision has greatly improved in both eyes. she probably can get by with just reading glasses for the time being. so, that's a trip for this weekend most likely.

she's going with me to take the car in to get the oil changed. since it's still in her name...

i have no clue what we're doing after that. i know my sister is down here for the weekend i believe. she's got a wedding and a baby shower to go to that i know of.

i haven't said anything about this, but it really is infuriating how the asshole that runs this country is dealing with the tragedy in Puerto Rico. it's almost like the fucker thinks, well, they can't vote so i don't need them for my re-election campaign, you know, unlike Florida and Texas. to see all those supplies sitting in the port and not one fucking truck to get it out to the people... hopefully this will be a stain that will follow this fucker like Katrina was for Bush.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

at least the weather is starting to feel like the fall is near

i was actually able to open some windows today and let a cool breeze into the house. imagine that, finally being able to turn off the air conditioner near the end of September.

i wrote 5 poems today. i haven't typed them up yet... i'll probably get to that sometime tonight.

the New York Yankees won last night 6-1. Boston won so the Yankees are still 3 games back. they go for the sweep of Tampa tonight.

Manchester United whipped CSKA Moscow yesterday 4-1 in the Champions League. i was very happy with that result.

NXT was very good last night. it was great to see Adam Cole wrestle again.

Lucha Underground was fucking great last night. part 1 of Ultima Lucha Tres certainly lived up to the hype.

Mr. Mercedes was really damn good last night.

You're the Worst was great last night. part of the reason why i love crazy women.

Total Bellas was pretty good last night.

part 9 of The Vietnam War was very interesting last night. i did love how Ken Burns used Nixon's own words to destroy him last night. what a fuck up. if anyone can take anything away from this, it's that the American people are still fucking stupid. they enjoy being lied to by their government. tonight is the final episode.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Chris Gethard Show, Better Things, The Vietnam War, Gotham and Will & Grace.

i did get 1 poem out of the trip to the grocery store today. i came across this stunning blonde in one aisle. she smiled at me and then had a look of disdain on her face. so you can imagine the poem.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast today. you can find that by going here:
http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2017/9/27/wrestling-podcast-153-charlotte

my favorite radio station is going away today. WNKU was probably one of the best radio stations i have ever listened to in my life. it will be sorely missed.

i'm not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. i need to take mom to the eye surgeon in the morning and then i think the car has to go in sometime in the afternoon. i'm not sure what else we're doing. so, i'll probably be on here later in the afternoon i guess.

wait, there's cheating in college basketball?????

anyone who is shocked by the "huge" scandal going on with college basketball the last few days has been living under a damn rock. this shit has been going on for as long as i have been alive. it's only now that the money totals have reached the 6 figure level, so the feds are fucking interested.

the New York Yankees won last night 6-1. they have now clinched home field for the wild card game. Boston lost again last night, so the Yankees are just 3 games out in the division race. i don't think Boston will collapse, but it's certainly not impossible.

the New York Rangers lost 4-3 in OT last night at Philadelphia. i'm definitely ready for the regular season to start.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

205 Live was good last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show was fucking hilarious last night.

The Voice was pretty good last night.

The Vietnam War was very sad last night. that was the first time i had actually heard the audio from Kent State. that brought tears. it was very interesting to see the number of veterans that were back from the war that said that's enough after what happened at Kent State. plus, it was good to see racism doesn't take any time off for a war. i believe tonight is going to be about something that i haven't heard anyone really talk about... what happened in Vietnam after the US troops left.

i went right from watching that into watching American Horror Story last night. i thought it was probably the best portrayal of why people voted for Trump... some people just have a need for fucking chaos.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lucha Underground, Mr. Mercedes, You're the Worst, Total Bellas and The Vietnam War. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

Manchester United plays in Moscow today in the Champions League. this is always a tough place to play, so i will be thrilled if they actually win.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime after going to the grocery store.

all rise

the New York Yankees whipped the Royals yesterday 11-3. more importantly, Aaron Judge hit 2 more home runs to give him 50 on the season. that sets the major league record for rookies. the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Tampa. they basically need 1 more win to have home field advantage in the wild card game.

the New York Rangers won last night in OT over Philadelphia 3-2. all 3 wins at home this preseason have been in OT. if that trend keeps up in the regular season, i will surely have a heart attack. they finish the preseason tonight at Philadelphia.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

The Big Bang Theory was pretty funny last night.

Young Sheldon was good last night, although it did seem like most of the funny shit was shown in the previews. i'm hoping the next episodes are better.

The Vietnam War was very good last night. it's painfully obvious to see the comparisons between Nixon and Trump. i believe tonight's episode will deal with what happened at Kent State.

The Voice last night was good. i'm going to enjoy Jennifer Hudson this season. these were some of my favorites from last night. hopefully there will be more tonight.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, The Jim Jefferies Show, American Horror Story, The Vietnam War and The Voice. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i finally got a nice long hot shower in today. i definitely needed one.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays in the Champions League.

i have trash to go pick up so that's all for me today kids.

afternoon poetry update

i sent out 17 poems this afternoon. 3 each to The Beatnik Cowboy and Full of Crow. 5 to Horror Sleaze Trash and 6 to Midnight Lane Boutique. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.

the race to the end of the world

so, i just saw that North Korea has said that Trump's comments was a declaration of war. i suppose this could get real interesting real quick.

i guess i should get the poems out before the bombs go off...

WWE No Mercy was really good last night, right until the end. the tag team title match was outstanding. even Roman Reigns vs. John Cena was good. but to have Brock beat Braun clean after just one F5 was a little anti-climatic for me. they built up Braun so damn good and then to have him lose like that defeated the whole purpose in my eyes. i'm sure Monday Night Raw will be used to fix the "mistakes", like Enzo winning the Cruiserweight championship.

the season finale of Ballers was pretty good last night.

Last Week Tonight was fucking hilarious as usual.

Ray Donovan was really good last night.

Episodes reminded why i want to be cremated last night.

The Deuce was excellent once again last night.

Vice Principals was very funny last night.

The Vietnam War last night was mostly about the Tet Offensive and 1968. that has always been one of the years that has fascinated me the most about this country. between the assassinations, the riots and a never ending war... and to me the start of the greatest time in music history (68-72). i'm sure tonight's episode will be good as well.

holy shit, the New Orleans Saints actually won a game yesterday. i was slightly shocked they whipped Carolina on the road 34-13. the Saints defense surprised me the most, picking off Cam Newton 3 times. 2 of those led to touchdowns by the offense. that's pretty much the blueprint on how to win. they next play the Dolphins in London.

the New York Yankees lost yesterday 9-5. Aaron Judge did hit 2 more home runs to give him 48 on the season. that's one behind the rookie record. the Yankees play a makeup game at home this afternoon against Kansas City.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Vietnam War, The Voice, The Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Philadelphia. hopefully i'll get to see some highlights of the game sometime tonight.

i had to help mom fill out her disability paperwork this morning. they almost sent a return envelope large enough for it to be sent back in.

i might send out the poems either this afternoon or tomorrow morning. you have been warned.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

like a knife stuck deep in the soul

i woke up at 6 this morning with a cramp in my left leg. the cramp felt like a fucking knife was deep inside me. 30 seconds prior to that, i was sound asleep. i imagine there are easier ways for my body to tell me i have to go piss.

i was crushed yesterday when i heard Charles Bradley had died. cancer takes another one. fuck. rest in peace and thank for the countless hours your music took me to a much better place.

the New York Yankees got some good pitching yesterday and a couple of home runs to win over Toronto 5-1. they have now clinched a place in the playoffs. they still need to do a little work to make sure they have home field in the wild card game. they can make a dent in that by winning the series today.

Manchester United won yesterday 1-0. they next play in Moscow on Wednesday in the Champions League.

Ohio State beat UNLV yesterday 54-21. honestly, it never felt that close.

the New York Rangers lost to New Jersey last night 2-1.

i watched some wrestling last night being streamed out of Mexico trying to raise money for the earthquake victims. it was much better than i was expecting.

ROH was excellent last night.

i did watch a little of the Global Citizen Festival yesterday. i was reminded why i thought of Andra Day as the next Beyonce the first time i saw her.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be the season finale of Ballers, Last Week Tonight, Ray Donovan, Episodes, The Deuce, Vice Principals and The Vietnam War.

i will be watching WWE No Mercy for most of the evening on WWE Network. at least on paper, this should be an amazing night of matches.

the New Orleans Saints play today at Carolina. since apparently the Saints aren't allowed to win in the month of September, it's a damn good thing i saved one victory drink from yesterday for today.

it's supposed to be another hot one here today. great.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.

sleep, what is that again...?

nothing like waking up at 6 on a Saturday morning and realizing you probably only slept a little over 4 hours. that's basically a fucking nap. oh well, shit to do...

VICE was very interesting last night.

NJPW was excellent last night.

the season finale of Treehouse Masters was very good last night.

Room 104 was really good last night.

Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was fucking hilarious last night. think King of the Hill with stories about country music outlaws. fucking great.

Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night.

the New York Yankees lost 8-1 last night. their magic number to clinch the playoffs is down to 1. so, all they have to do is win this afternoon and they are in. since Boston won last night, their chances of winning the division are basically slim to none. they might as well go in on a victory.

the New York Rangers lost last night to the Islanders 2-1. if i can take any positive from the game, the power play did score again. they play again today at New Jersey.

at least the high school i went to won their football game last night, 59-0. so i gladly did some drinking for that.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

Manchester United plays Southampton this morning. i won't be able to watch the game because i refuse to pay $50 for a package to watch just one team. so, i'll follow the game online i suppose.

Ohio State takes on UNLV today. this should be a game where Ohio State wins comfortably. if it isn't, then there are some real problems with the team.

i think it's supposed to get up near 90 degrees today, so i imagine i will spend most of the day inside enjoying some air conditioning.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

it's too humid for it to be fall

nothing like breaking into a sweat going out to get the morning paper before 9 AM. the grocery store should be interesting this afternoon.

i did do a little poetry work last night. i believe i know where my next 17 poems are going. if i get a wild hair up my ass, i might get those poems out this weekend.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

The Chris Gethard Show was fucking brilliant last night.

Fuck, That's Delicious Classics was excellent last night.

Better Things was very good last night.

Gotham was great last night. i can't wait to see everything season 4 will have.

part 5 of The Vietnam War last night was frustrating to watch. i told my mother it's probably a damn good thing i wasn't alive in 1967. i can't fucking believe the sheep bought what the fucking government was saying. it looks like part 6 is when the shit is really going to hit the fan with the Tet Offensive.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW, Real Time with Bill Maher, the season finale of Treehouse Masters, Room 104 and Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus.

the New York Rangers play the Islanders tonight in their 3rd preseason game. hopefully i'll get to catch some highlights at some point tonight.

i now have to go through the coupons and basically be ready to go as soon as the landscaper leaves. hopefully he will be here shortly.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

the last day of summer

i know this is supposed to be the last day of summer, but it's 91 damn degrees outside and it's supposed to feel like late August for the next week or so. i would like to have more seasons than just fucking hot and fucking cold.

the New York Yankees won yesterday to complete the sweep of the Twins, 11-3. you'd never know the Twins were actually winning 3-0 in the game. sadly, Boston also swept Baltimore, so the Yankees didn't make up any ground on them. but, they are much closer to clinching a playoff spot now. the Yankees are off tonight and start a series in Toronto tomorrow. only 10 games left in the regular season.

the New York Rangers won in OT last night over New Jersey 4-3. i have to admit, i really like what i have seen so far from their 2 first round picks this year. maybe (fingers crossed) they didn't fuck that up for a change. and holy shit, goals on the power play, there's a fucking concept.

NXT was very good last night. i really love the direction they are going in at the moment.

Lucha Underground was excellent last night. next week starts Ultima Lucha Tres.

Mr. Mercedes was fucking great last night.

You're the Worst was hilarious last night.

Total Bellas was hilarious for all the wrong reasons last night.

part 4 of The Vietnam War had me in tears last night. the stories of having to put your classmates in body bags after just drinking beers with them the week before really got to me. especially when i thought about the stories of my father that my mother told me. he went to Vietnam because he wanted to die. and when i think about all those Americans that died, how the fuck wasn't he one of them? that's one of those questions i'll never have the answer to. i imagine part 5 will hit me hard as well tonight.

the season finale of Big Brother was pretty good last night. 2 years in a row, Paul lost by 1 vote. i applaud Josh for his strategy of owning what he was doing and allowing Paul just enough rope to hang himself. and kudos to CBS for having it be Cody's vote to sink Paul. of course, that means Cody and Jessica are probably going to do The Amazing Race now. those 2 assholes deserve each other.

woke up and wondered what chaos awaits...

probably not the smartest thing to do... go to sleep after watching American Horror Story. it certainly makes something i don't do well even less comfortable.

the New York Yankees won again last night over the Twins, 5-2. they go for the sweep this afternoon.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

205 Live was pretty good as well last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show last night was fucking hilarious.

American Horror Story was fucking creepy as hell last night.

part 3 of The Vietnam War last night on PBS covered late 1963 to early 1965 more or less. i thought the most telling part was a veteran saying that the government knew the war was unwinnable in 1965 and he didn't go over until 1968. it was all a bunch of people trying to placate their fucking egos instead of admitting a mistake. i imagine part 4 will be just as heartbreaking as this one was. my only hope is that we, as in the we of humanity, learn from this.

Manchester United takes on Burton today in the League Cup. hopefully they have a good start in their defense of the title they won last season.

i know mom wants me to help her with some paperwork today as well. plus, i think she has something for me to take to the post office.

the New York Rangers have another preseason game tonight against New Jersey. i'm hoping to catch some of that at some point tonight.

the damn rain can leave now...

i think we've had nearly 2 inches of rain in the last couple of days. i suppose the grass should have been cut before the rain, but oh well. my arthritis has been fucking killing me today. nothing quite like trying to run a vacuum cleaner and your left leg decides to just quit working. my best guess is i have scar tissue wrapped around nerves and the arthritis is the catalyst for evil. i'm planning on being the stubborn fucker and just wait to my next doctor's appointment to say something about it. damn good thing my pain tolerance hasn't left me.

i wrote 5 poems this morning. it's always great to have words spilling out of you with the morning piss. i typed them up later in the morning and i really like them. i might get a wild hair up my ass and send some more poems out in the next few days.

the New York Yankees won 2-1 last night over the Twins. it certainly did have the feel of a playoff game. hopefully the Yankees can win again tonight.

i did watch a good portion of the New York Rangers first preseason game last night against the Islanders. and i gladly had a victory drink when the Rangers won 1-0 in OT.

I Hart Food was really good last night.

The Vietnam War last night was excellent. part 2 dealt with 1961-1963. i think the best part of this so far is the footage from Vietnam that has never been seen before. i can't wait for part 3 tonight.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before the Yankees play in the afternoon. if not, it will be after Manchester United plays in the League Cup.

i have trash to go pick up now. i've been in my room for a few hours, so hopefully the damn rain has stopped.

today certainly wasn't the best day for a major earthquake in Mexico.

afternoon thunderstorms...

nothing like a thunderstorm out of nowhere to just stop me in my tracks. fucking arthritis. this should be a fun one type up.

yesterday was not a good one for me.

the New York Yankees lost to Baltimore yesterday 6-4. they pissed away a chance for a sweep and to pick up a game on Boston. they are still 3 games out in the division. the Yankees start a series with the Twins tonight. Minnesota is right behind the Yankees in the wild card standings. so, it could be a playoff preview.

the New Orleans Saints lost to New England yesterday 36-20. and honestly, it never felt that close. the defense was horrific yesterday as Tom Brady shredded them to pieces. and when your defense can't stop anyone, it doesn't matter how good the offense is.

i was saddened to hear of the death of  Bobby "The Brain" Heenan yesterday. he was definitely one of the reasons i absolutely loved wrestling as a child.

thankfully, Manchester United was the exception to everything yesterday. they defeated Everton 4-0. i thought it was kind of funny that United scored 3 of those goals after Wayne Rooney came out of the game for Everton.

The Vietnam War last night on PBS was very good. this is a topic that i am highly interested in, given that my father would never tell me anything about his time in the war. i really liked in part 1 that they went all the way back to the 1850's to set up why everything happened a century later. i'm sure part 2 will be just as good tonight.

Ballers was really good last night. the season finale next week should be really good as well.

Ray Donovan was pretty good last night.

Episodes was pretty funny last night.

The Deuce was excellent last night.

Vice Principals was fucking hilarious last night.

the series finale of The Strain last night was damn near perfect. the fight scenes were amazing and the twist i didn't see coming that set up the last few scenes was great. probably one of my favorite shows that i never expected to like.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, I Hart Food and The Vietnam War. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow sometime after a trip to the bank.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. i now have dishes to do, toilets to clean and a house to vacuum. good times.

la vida es una caja de chocolates, pronto tendrás diabetes y morirás

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...

the sweet taste of victory

broke out the Jagermeister last night, so you know i was feeling good.

Ohio State finally got off to a hot start yesterday against Army. of course, that didn't last as they basically did nothing for the entire 2nd quarter. thankfully, the halftime adjustments worked and Ohio State went on to win 38-7.

the New York Yankees whipped Baltimore yesterday, 9-3. they will go for the sweep of the Orioles this afternoon.

i never got to see Prince live in concert before he died. that's why i made sure to record Prince: Sign O' the Times last night. i remember when that came out in 1987. i was probably too young to really like those songs at the time, but i do recall Sheena Easton being my "dream" woman around that time. i watched that last night and truly felt just how old i am now.

ROH was excellent last night.

the college football games didn't disappoint last night either.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Ballers, Ray Donovan, Episodes, The Deuce, Vice Principals, The Vietnam War and the series finale of The Strain.

Manchester United takes on Everton here in a few minutes. it's going to be really weird seeing Wayne Rooney in blue.

the New Orleans Saints take on New England today. either it's going to be a shootout or it's going to be one of those days where i'm really happy i rolled over a victory drink from yesterday to today.

i might watch some of the Emmy Awards tonight. i figure Stephen Colbert will have some funny moments.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.

confíe en su tripa y espere que no tenga mierda para los cerebros
