 this will be the final blog for probably the next few weeks. mom broke her left hip last night when she fell in the kitchen. broke it in two spots. i went to the emergency room last night and she was in tremendous pain. i came back home when they said they didn't have a hospital room for her and wouldn't know until the morning. i got back home and got a whopping 2 1/2 hours of sleep. she's still in the emergency room. she's supposed to have surgery sometime today. they still haven't given her a time. i know when she gets back home she will 8 weeks of recovery. i will probably start doing the blog on a regular basis again when i get into my new routine with her.

thanks to everyone for the kind thoughts and well wishes. 

until we meet again.

Monday Night Raw was really good last night.

the Yankees lost last night in Cleveland, 6-4. hopefully, they will do better tonight.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, St. Denis Medical and Dark Side of the Ring.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.

i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.

that's all for me today kids.

thankfully, i'm not religious...

 i found out right before i fell asleep last night that the pope had died. i find it curious that one of the last pieces of shit to see him alive was J.D. Vance. now, i'm not saying one thing killed the other, just saying it is interesting. in a weird way, last night was full of tragedy. be it wrestling, tv shows, reality... damn.

night 2 of WrestleMania was damn near perfect. the show was much better paced than night 1. i liked the matches better. the Joe Hendry surprise was actually a surprise. it was great to see Becky Lynch back. then, the main event started. Cena's win over Cody felt completely anticlimactic. now, i have learned to let everything play out before casting judgement, but this certainly fell flat. and i know in wrestling history, when your main event falls flat, it takes away from the whole show.

The Last of Us last night was shocking, mostly because i didn't know what was coming since i never played the video game. 

The Americas last night was the behind the scenes of how they made the show. that was fascinating to watch.

The Righteous Gemstones was hilarious last night. just two episodes left.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan was very good last night.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs yesterday:

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs yesterday:

Manchester United lost yesterday at home to Wolves, 1-0.

the Yankees won 4-0 yesterday against Tampa Bay. i couldn't believe the official scorer took away the no hitter that Max Fried was working on. and i couldn't believe the umpires and the replay booth took away a home run from Aaron Judge that was clearly fair. the Yankees start a series tonight in Cleveland.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i will be watching Monday Night Raw on Netflix. the Raw after WrestleMania is always a crazy one.

below are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

mom has physical therapy today. i will hopefully write some poems there.

i should be on here tomorrow in the afternoon, most likely.

happy sunday...

 i do love that today happens to be 4/20 and Easter. they go hand in hand most of the time.

night 1 of WrestleMania was good. a few surprises, probably nothing bigger than what happened in the pre-show. WWE has purchased the Mexican promotion AAA. that floored me. i have always been a fan of lucha libre and can only hope that the WWE machine will make it even bigger. as for the matches, i love that Jey Uso won the title. the Paul Heyman double backstab to end up with Seth Rollins was very good. hopefully, it will be even better tonight.

earlier in the day, NXT Stand & Deliver was really good.

the Yankees lost yesterday, 10-8, in 10 innings. they were up 8-4 in the 9th. you can't lose those games. hopefully, they will win today.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs today.

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

WrestleMania weekend...

 WrestleMania 41 is this weekend. since i have seen every WrestleMania, i don't plan on ending that streak anytime soon. so, plenty of the next few blogs will have enough wrestling talk to drive you mad. i totally get it if you skip all that to find the other stuff. but, if you are interested in it, enjoy.

before i get to any of that, here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

Smackdown was excellent last night.

the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony was good last night. it was long as fuck, but i figured it would be.

the Yankees won last night against Tampa Bay, 1-0. hopefully, they will win again this afternoon.

Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.

i did catch some of the NBA playoffs last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight.

the NHL and NBA playoffs really get going today.

i do plan on watching NXT Stand & Deliver this afternoon. that should go right into night 1 of WrestleMania.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

 i heard back from Mad Swirl on my poetry submission from back in January. my poem "old poets" has been accepted for publication. it should appear on the site on April 23, 2025.

one of the craziest games i have ever seen...

 when Manchester United was up 2-0 at halftime yesterday, i felt pretty confident. when they were down 4-2 in extra time against Lyon (playing with 10 men), i felt horrible. then, Casemiro got fouled in the box. Bruno scored the penalty kick. then, Casemiro and Bruno made a great little passing play to Kobbie Mainoo to make it 4-4. one minute after that, Casemiro made the perfect pass to Harry Maguire to head in the winner. 3 goals in 7 minutes. holy shit. one of the craziest games i can remember. first European game to have 5 goals scored in extra time. United won 5-4 and 7-6 on aggregate. they advance to the semifinals of the Europa League.

the New York Rangers won last night at home against Tampa Bay, 4-0. that wraps up the season and Sam Rosen's 40th year as the tv broadcaster of the team. i thought it was a nice touch to announce Sam as the #1 star of the game.

the New York Yankees won last night over Tampa Bay, 6-3. hopefully, they will do that again tonight.

AEW Collision was ok last night.

Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage was pretty funny last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher. the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony is late tonight on Peacock.

here are your 2 videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

i will probably watch some of the NBA playoffs tonight. Miami plays Atlanta and Dallas plays Memphis. winners gets the 8th seed, the losers will be playing golf soon.

you know how much i love doing a surprise load of laundry in the morning? good friday my ass.

i guess Orkin is supposed to be here at noon and mom has physical therapy at 3:15 this afternoon.

i will be on here in the morning tomorrow, before NXT starts in the afternoon.

it never gets boring...

 so, i was getting ready to write this about a hour ago. that was until i heard mom scream from her room. i went in and turned on the light and asked what was wrong? she started complaining about all the people in her room, etc. i told her she is once again hallucinating and thinking her dreams are reality. i explain to her all the time this is the byproduct of not doing any drugs while growing up in the 60's. 

here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

the Yankees won last night at home to sweep the Royals, 4-3. they start a series tonight at Tampa.

AEW Dynamite was actually pretty good last night.

i did write 2 poems yesterday. i typed those up after i got back from mom's physical therapy session.

grocery shopping today went pretty well. i was able to get everything on the list and keep it under $200. 

i guess it helps that WrestleMania is on Easter this year. so, there will be no need for the traditional Easter dinner. that saved some money.

i need to go ice my back down.
