one of those damn days...

when i heard it start raining last night around 3 in the morning, i knew today was going to be miserable. hell, i had to masturbate just to even attempt to fall asleep. i almost got 4 straight hours. almost. it stopped raining for a bit, of course, i was icing my back at that moment. the arthritis i have in my back tends to send the pain right down my spine. good times. it started to rain again right as i left for the grocery store today. fucking figures. thankfully, i got the groceries into the Highlander before it really started to fucking rain cats and dogs.

and just when i was going to start the blog today, the news hit about Neil Peart. i will admit i was never a huge fan of Rush growing up, but i knew damn well that Neil was one of the greatest drummers ever. and as a fan of music, this news hit me like a ton of bricks. rest in peace Neil, you have earned it.

Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time was excellent last night.

Young Sheldon was pretty funny last night.

The Unicorn was very good last night.

Will & Grace was fucking hilarious last night.

Perfect Harmony was excellent last night.

the New York Rangers won last night over New Jersey, 6-3. Tony DeAngelo had his first career hat trick (first for a Rangers defenseman since 1982) and tied Brian Leetch's team record with 5 points in the game. The Prince had 46 saves as well. when the team plays like this, it gives me some hope that in a few years, these kids will be brilliant and playing for a Cup.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i did listen to the latest podcast from Notsam Wrestling late last night. you can find that by going here: http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2020/1/10/what-is-going-to-happen-with-brock-thursday-notsam-thursday

unless i get up really fucking early tomorrow, i won't be on here until i get home from the Dayton Flyers game tomorrow afternoon.

Dayton plays UMass tomorrow. i was hoping mom was going to be able to go, but she's a little sick and the weather is going to be fucking crazy. i wanted her to go because Chris Wright is going into the UD Hall of Fame tomorrow. we've known Chris since he was in diapers. i played basketball with one of his older brothers. i'm really hoping Dayton gets the win tomorrow. mom will get to see the game at least, it's on NBCSN.

Manchester United plays tomorrow morning. i'd love to see them win but i have no damn clue who is even fucking healthy anymore.

hopefully, i'll get home before the football games start tomorrow.

i'm off to go ice down my back yet again and pretend i'm not in fucking pain.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

now, if i do get up early tomorrow, the last quarter of this blog will be fucking copy and pasted.

have a good one kids...

descanse en paz Neil Peart

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

and then there was a flood...

it has absolutely poured here a couple of times today. the type of rain where you expect cats and dogs. the type of rain that usually makes me roll up in a ball and wish for death. but, today i decided to try to trick my brain. the satellite went out with the storms so i started to write. i figure if i could get my brain into poetry mode, the pain would be channeled into the poems. sure enough, 10 poems later, i was pleased. i typed them up this afternoon and i really like them. i think a few of them are really fucking good. i'm not sure when i'll be sending them out, but at least i have another fresh batch of work to choose from.

i thought Smackdown was pretty good last night. it certainly helps that the show is only 2 hours long.

Hard Knocks was pretty funny last night. it made me realize just how soon the NFL season will be starting back up. i guess i need to start thinking about fantasy drafts again.

the USA women's soccer team gave up a late goal to get a 2-2 draw yesterday against Colombia. they still won the group. they will next play Sweden.

the New York Yankees lost last night 5-3. how many more games until this mediocre season is over? they play again tonight in Boston. maybe A-Rod gets to play tonight.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Tyrant and Any Given Wednesday. i'll be watching NXT and CWC on WWE Network sometime tonight.

i will probably watch the team USA men's basketball game against Australia later today. that might actually be a game this time around.

i got a great FREE song on NoiseTrade this afternoon. i'll put the link for it down in the music section.

i was very happy to see that Chris Wright is getting another chance in the NBA. it looks like he's going to sign a deal with Oklahoma City. i went to high school with one of his older brothers. and Chris was always one of my favorite players at Dayton.

that's all for me kids. hope all of you had a wonderful day.

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...
