MUST win game tonight...

 the New York Rangers play Game 5 tonight against Tampa Bay at MSG. i'm really hoping the Rangers play their best game of the series tonight and win. that win would put them one more victory away from the Stanley Cup final.

AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.

mom didn't go to physical therapy today. since her birthday is a week away, i believe her anxiety is really fucking with her. i believe my fascination with death and when someone dies really close to their birthday (the circle being complete and natural), it has engulfed her thoughts. i said to her last night, i don't want you to wake up with disappointment when i tell you good morning the day after your birthday.

the New York Yankees lost last night to the Twins, 8-1. hopefully, they will start a new winning streak tonight.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and Desus & Mero. i watched NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock. it was really good.

here are your highlights from Game 3 of the NBA Finals last night:

i just put my last load of laundry in the dryer, so today has been pretty productive. thankfully, the humidity was gone from the storms last night. so, i opened up the house and let the cool breeze come in. i believe they said Ohio had 4 tornadoes last night. most of the damage was north of where i live.

i got my new business cards today from Vistaprint. they got here early, so that made me pretty happy.

i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm guessing early afternoon most likely.

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the fucking shot.

haciendo todo lo posible para canalizar mi energía de una manera positiva

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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

it's friday already

was very happy for LeBron last night. i totally agree with what a reporter in Miami said he should do. size the championship ring for his middle finger. i know he won't, but that would make me a bigger fan.

i got a good laugh when the Greeks today tugged on superman's cape and tied the game with Germany at 1. the German response was clinical and deadly. 3 straight goals. Greece got a meaningless penalty kick goal late in the match but it was well decided by then. if the Germans don't make it to the final of EURO 2012 i'll be stunned.

the subway series starts back up tonight. not real interested in it, although the Mets closer calling the Yankees chickens hopefully starts a bean ball war. i would love to see a 1996 brawl like the one the Yankees had against Baltimore. good times.

got my business cards in the mail today. they are fucking spectacular. i love Vistaprint. i've been doing business with them for years and they never disappoint. highly recommended.

not a lot of music today as i snuck in a few cat naps. but i did manage to listen to this gem this morning:

Alice in Chains - Unplugged

i hope everyone has a great weekend. i'm hoping the Rangers have a good draft or at least make an interesting trade or two.

peace and chicken grease.

someone turn off the damn heat

some genius said it's supposed to rain tonight. i've stopped giving a shit...

nice win by Portugal today in EURO 2012 action. of course, anytime i can watch that clown goalie from Chelsea lose, i'm all in.

good news to report from The Camel Saloon. 2 of the 3 i sent were accepted for publication. i like that batting average. i'll post some links when they do get published.

looking forward to game 5 of the NBA finals tonight. maybe LeBron will win and everyone will shut the fuck up for a bit. for the sake of my sports talk ears, i hope so.

was hoping my new business cards would be in the mail today, like they said they were going to be. but, of course, they weren't. alas, there's always tomorrow.

music for today:

Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band - Live! in Chicago
Tori Amos - from the choirgirl hotel
