of course the boil advisory gets lifted...

it was fucking raining like the end of the world when i came out of the grocery store today. i decided fuck it. i haven't had a shower in almost a week, i won't melt. i got fucking soaked. and then, of course, after i got the groceries into the house, the phone rings. it was the city calling to say the boil advisory was lifted. it never fails, especially since i bought more water today as well.

the rain wasn't supposed to come until tonight. i'm hoping that most of the roofs got tarps before this shit hit this afternoon.

Brookville was the last community to get their water back.

mom just took her shower. i'm going to take mine in the morning.

the New York Yankees got rained out last night. that game will be made up as a doubleheader in August. so, hopefully the game tonight against Boston won't have any weather issues.

here are your highlights from Game 1 of the NBA Finals last night.

Life in Pieces was hilarious last night.

Lip Sync Battle was like an acid hit last night.

Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Deadwood: The Movie, Real Time with Bill Maher, Wyatt Cenac's Problem Areas and the final part of Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men.

no playoff games tonight, so that's a little weird.

i'll be on here tomorrow, i'm guessing before the Champions League final. and hopefully after a nice long shower.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

that's all for me kids...

the water is back, sort of...

we are still under a boil advisory, but at least we have enough water now we can flush the fucking toilets. i guess the National Weather Service has said there was 14! tornadoes on Memorial Day. fucking hell.

mom sent me a pic of what happened to the house i grew up in. when i saw it, all i could do was laugh. the tornado took a direct hit to my old bedroom. and people think i'm crazy when i say the powers that be are out to get me...

hopefully the boil advisory will be over by tomorrow. i'd love to actually take a fucking shower before i go to the grocery store.

the New York Yankees won yesterday against San Diego, 7-0. they start a series at home tonight against Boston. the Yankees could really bury the Red Sox if they take care of business in this series.

here are your highlights from Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final:

Game 1 of the NBA Finals starts tonight.

NXT and NXT UK were both pretty good last night.

the season finale of What We Do in the Shadows was excellent last night. i can't wait for season 2.

i did write 3 poems last night. i typed those up this afternoon. May has been a slow ass month for me for writing. i'm hoping it will pick up in the next few weeks. of course, since i did write so much in the previous 3 months, i still have plenty to send out.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store.

there's another chance of strong storms tonight.  oh joy.

i haven't showered in 4 days...

the water facility here in Brookville took a direct hit from that tornado. the city called this morning and said they could have the water running again by tonight. in the same breath, they said you could get water for drinking and flushing the toilets at the new fire station. since we didn't really have any damage from the storm, i didn't feel right going up there to get water. i needed to get paper plates from the grocery store, so i decided to get the water there. one problem, the grocery store didn't have any. i had to drive to Meijer and get some. i got 4 jugs so we could at least flush the toilets. and, that would give me 4 jugs i could take to the fire station tomorrow to get more water in case the water isn't back up and running tonight. it's humid as fuck today. good times.

the New York Yankees lost yesterday, 5-4. they were down 4-0 before i could even get the game on last night. they are up 3-0 so far today. hopefully, they will win today and win the series over San Diego.

Smackdown was pretty good last night, as was 205 Live.

Deadliest Catch was really good last night.

Songland was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, the season finale of What We Do in the Shadows and The Wrestlers. i'll watch NXT and NXT UK sometime tonight on WWE Network.

Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final is tonight. i do plan on watching some of that.

i might watch some of the Europa League final today between Chelsea and Arsenal.

i didn't go look at storm damage this morning. i have seen enough on the news for my taste. i think it was an EF3 tornado that touched down in the neighborhood i grew up in. i think a couple of the families that were there when i was growing up still live there. i know the people that lived next door to us had to get a tarp on their roof and won't have any power back on until June 3rd at the earliest.

and of course, there's a chance for more storms the next 2 days.

that's all for me kids. i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

a Memorial Day i will never forget...

i heard the sirens going off. i could see the sky getting darker and the winds really picking up. i have been fascinated by storms since i was a child. my adrenaline started pumping and i went to the window in the front of the house. the lightning was truly fucking crazy. i smiled and said i have waited 43 fucking years, come and get me. the tornado missed where i live by about a mile. it hit the high school in the town i live in and then went and pretty much destroyed the town i grew up in, Trotwood, Ohio. today has been a flood of fucking memories. i could say i hope this is the start of a new future, but hope left this fucking area many moons ago. my hometown already was part ghost, now it might as well be a fucking corpse. i guess the roof got blown off the house i grew up in. my mother said this is the worst she has seen here in her 65 years on this planet. just fucking crazy.

my favorite strip club took a direct hit

and the shit from the town i grew up in...

i have no clue if this region will ever recover. needless to say, mom didn't want to travel south of town today to meet her financial planner. that will happen next week now.

in other news...

the New York Yankees won yesterday against the Padres, 5-2. hopefully, they will win again tonight.

here are your highlights from Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final:

i was really hoping that Monday Night Raw was going to be good last night. i'm still hoping it will be some day... thank god at least Bray Wyatt still entertains me.

there's a chance for more thunderstorms tonight. i wouldn't mind a break from mother nature at the moment.

i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow. hopefully, i won't be up to 5 in the morning again listening to scanner traffic. i didn't get much sleep after listening to hours and hours of street names i knew and can remember vividly from my childhood.

i truly hope the weather is better where you are.

until tomorrow...

not how i wanted to start the day...

first off, Happy Memorial Day to everyone.

i woke up in pain at 5 this morning. joy. i put on some CBD oil, hoping it would help me get some more sleep. eventually, along with some ice, i got a couple more hours out in my massage chair. that's the only place in the house where i can sleep on my back. when i'm in bed, i'm always on my side. that should paint the picture of how bad my back actually is. good times.

the New York Yankees were down 7-1 yesterday at the Royals. they fought back to make it 7-7 but eventually lost 8-7 in 10 innings. oh well, they were due for a stinker. they start a series at home this afternoon against San Diego.

the Indy 500 had a great finish yesterday.

i did watch some of the NASCAR race last night.

Finland defeated Canada yesterday, 3-1, to win the gold medal at the World Hockey Championships.

Our Cartoon President was hilarious last night.

Billions was very good last night.

i hope everyone had a great Sunday. hopefully, your holiday Monday is a good one.

that's all for me kids. i'll be on here tomorrow after i take mom to see her financial planner south of town. if all goes well, we will be eating a late lunch down there as well.

hoping for a lazy Sunday...

i got some sleep last night, at least that's what i am going to call it. i went to bed after drinking some Jack Daniels and listening to LCD Soundsystem. i figured the emails could wait until the morning, all 147 of them.

the New York Yankees won both games of the doubleheader yesterday against the Royals, 7-3, 6-5. hopefully, they will sweep the series this afternoon.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

i did watch the AEW pre-show last night and saw some of the highlights from Double or Nothing. i loved what i saw. it strengthens my hope that AEW will be a great alternative to WWE. and having a nice shock ending doesn't hurt.

ROH was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Our Cartoon President, Billions and The Chi.

i will probably watch a good portion of the Indy 500 and the NASCAR race tonight as well.

20 years ago today was one of the greatest days of my life as a Manchester United fan.

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

i have no clue when i will be on here on Memorial Day. i'm shooting for before the Yankees play on Monday afternoon.

my brain woke up on fire...

i got up at 7 this morning. 5 hours of sleep. that's pretty much as good as it gets for me. the word on my lips as i woke up was proletariat. i started laughing, figuring my brain was up for 45 minutes or so, brainstorming about god knows what. i just finished typing up the poem that came out of that mess. i like it. hopefully, there will be more to come.

the New York Yankees were rained out last night in Kansas City. they will play a day night doubleheader today. hopefully, they will win both games.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men was excellent last night. the final part of the documentary is next week.

Wyatt Cenac's Problem Areas was great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

i do plan on watching some of Game 6 between Milwaukee and Toronto tonight in the NBA playoffs. i'll be stunned if the Raptors don't finish it off tonight.

i will probably also watch the free part of AEW's first show tonight on YouTube. i'd love to get the whole show, but $50 is a little too high for my poor ass.

other than that, i'm hoping it will be a pain free day for the most part. i know that's highly unlikely, but i'd like to think i can still dream at my age.

i did watch a little of the first semifinal in the World Hockey Championships this morning. Finland defeated Russia 1-0. Canada plays the Czech Republic this afternoon in the other semifinal.

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

i have had to use CBD oil twice since the blog yesterday. one for back pain so intense i nearly had to fucking puke and for my side once again. i'm fully convinced now, the shit works. plus, if it's good enough for Ozzy, it's good enough for me.

team USA lost to Russia at the Hockey World Championships 4-3. oh well.

Life in Pieces was hilarious last night. it's a shame that this is the last season of the show.

Desus & Mero was fucking great last night.

i did watch most of the NBA game last night. even with the playoffs, you only really need to watch the last 5 minutes of the game. having watched most of the game, i can't see Golden State losing a game in the finals, regardless of who they play. here are your highlights from last night:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men and Wyatt Cenac's Problem Areas.

the grocery store was as crazy as i figured it would be today. i ended having to go to the drugstore today as well. even with the holiday weekend savings, i ended up spending more at the drugstore than both grocery stores combined. of course, we still don't have a oven that works, so i couldn't really buy most of the frozen food i would have bought. mom's hoping she finds something she likes this weekend and we can go buy it. oh joy.

i will be probably be on here in the morning tomorrow. of course, that depends if i actually get some sleep tonight.

i hope everyone enjoys the holiday weekend, except for the 3 fucking Brookville police officers that looked at me today like they wanted to take their lives into their own hands. i'm 43, there is no fucking need to stare at me like i'm some young punk looking to start shit. and people wonder why the police are hated by so many people.

i'm off to go ice my back down for the 3rd time today. good times.

team USA is trailing Russia 2-1 in the quarterfinals at the World Hockey Championships this morning. hopefully, that will change by the end of the game.

the New York Yankees won last night in Baltimore, 7-5. they go for the sweep this afternoon.

NXT and NXT UK were both excellent last night.

Dark Side of the Ring was really good last night.

The Wrestlers was great last night.

What We Do in the Shadows was hilarious last night. the season finale is next week.

felt kind of weird having no playoffs on last night. Game 5 of Toronto vs. Milwaukee will be on tonight.

we had some rain come through this morning. my arthritis flared up a little bit while that was going on.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store. given that a holiday weekend is coming up, i'm expecting the stores to be fucking crazy on Friday.

that's all for me kids. until tomorrow...

so, when the pain in my right side started again at 4 in the morning, i think i figured out what the fuck is going on. the lipoma in my abdomen rests on some nerves when i sit too long. as a writer, this is like a kick in the nuts. the only thing that works for me right now is placing ice on my spine and laying flat in my massage chair. eventually, i will probably have to have the lipoma removed. joy.

the New York Yankees whipped Baltimore last night, 11-4. hopefully, they will do it again tonight.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

The Voice did crown the right person last night.

it's supposed to rain sometime tonight. so not only do i have the lipoma situation, my arthritis is fucking killing me as well.

good times.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. if i actually get some decent sleep tonight, i'll try to be on here before the Yankees play in the afternoon.

finding pleasure in the pain, once again...

i didn't get to bed until 5 this morning. sometime around 7 or so, i had a horrific pain in my right side. oh fuck i thought, my appendix has exploded. then i remembered i'm trying to think on 2 hours of sleep. i couldn't get comfortable, so i went out to my massage chair to sleep. i got a couple hours out there, on and off. three shits and a shower later, the pain in my right side was gone. apparently, i was just backed up. of course, my luck, my pain tolerance kicked in and something serious did happen and i'm just going to fucking ignore it. so much for mom and i going shopping today. her back is killing her as well. this is a house today where apathy took a giant shit down our throats. joy.

the New York Yankees were down 6-1 last night in Baltimore. i wasn't happy. but thankfully, the Orioles fucking suck. the Yankees came all the way back to win the game 10-7. hopefully, they will win again tonight.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

The Voice was great last night. Blake's team did much better than i thought they would. that being said, Maelyn is easily the winner this season. hopefully, she will win.

Monday Night Raw was good last night, to a point. i still don't like Brock with the briefcase, but i get the feeling he might go after Kofi and the WWE title, especially since Smackdown will be going to Fox in the fall. who knows. the new 24/7 title, something that looks like it was picked up at a flea market, could be entertaining if they do it correctly.

Carpool Karaoke last night was pretty good.

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, the finale of The Voice, Miz & Mrs., The Jim Jefferies Show and Deadliest Catch. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

team USA lost to Canada today, 3-0 at the Hockey World Championships. they finished 4th in the group and their reward for that is to play Russia on Thursday in the quarterfinals.

i have trash to go pick up here and next door. this will be fun with the way my back feels. good times.

team USA did defeat Germany yesterday 3-1 at the Hockey World Championships. they play Canada tomorrow. the win over Germany did give team USA a spot in the quarterfinals.

the season finale of Barry was great last night.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

Our Cartoon President was fucking hilarious last night.

WWE Money in the Bank was pretty good last night, right up until the last 5 minutes of the show. when Brock Lesnar's music hit, i wanted to puke. having him win the Money in the Bank contract is fucking stupid. and i do understand this is Vince's reaction to the ratings being down, etc. but god forbid you put in the time to create new stars for the fans to be excited about.
