so, i was going through my emails this morning and saw one from John at The Rye Whiskey Review. he emailed me to let me know he has nominated my poem "under a cherry moon" for Best of the Net. i believe this is the third time i have been nominated in my 25 years as a published poet. if you are interested in reading that poem again, you can find it here:
the Yankees came from behind last night and defeated Toronto, 6-2. that cuts the magic number down to 2. they have a 2 game lead over Boston and Seattle. Toronto is one game behind those teams. this should be a crazy fucking final weekend for baseball. the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Tampa. if they win tonight and Boston or Seattle lose, they are in the playoffs.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
What We Do in the Shadows was hilarious last night.
Dark Side of the Ring was about FMW and Onita last night. i warned my mother before she started watching it, that there would be a ton of blood, barbed wire and crazy shit. i think the warning helped her.
Cake was fucking weird as always last night.
i did see a little of the Bengals last second win over the Jaguars. i sure hope Urban Meyer is making a ton of money. losing doesn't look good on him.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Real Time with Bill Maher. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on Peacock.
i did go to the bank today. thankfully, that didn't take forever. but, since it is October now, i guess it is orange barrel season again. looks like everything is under fucking construction again. joy.
i will be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays Everton in the morning. i'm really hoping to be in a good mood.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. just remember, it's never too early to start scaring the shit out of people.
thanks to everyone that checked out my latest published poems:
so, i didn't get to bed last night until around 3 AM. so, waking up this morning at 7 wasn't exactly fun. now, i know i say i only sleep 4 hours a day, it's not that all i want is 4 hours a day. i'd fucking love to sleep 6 or 8 or fuck, maybe even 10 one day in my life. so, i was up in time for the USA vs. Canada game at the Hockey Worlds. Canada won, 4-2. so, yet once again, the USA will be playing for the Bronze on Sunday. fuck me.
the Yankees lost to Boston last night, 5-2. quite honestly, when the Red Sox went up 3-0 in the top of the first, i didn't watch much more of the game. i'm hoping the Yankees will win tonight but i won't be holding my breath.
Smackdown and 205 Live were both really good last night.
AEW was really good last night as well.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:
Pause with Sam Jay was hilarious last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was very funny last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be MLW and ROH.
i'm sure i'll watch some of the playoffs today and take a damn shower at some point.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.
until then kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
last night was one of those nights at UD Arena that i used to daydream about as a child. Dayton whipped Davidson last night, 82-67. the most amazing thing about the game though, was Dayton missed their first 2 point shot last night and then went on to make their next 27 in a row. just imagine shooting 96% in a fucking game. Obi Toppin broke Chris Wright's dunk record last night. the team decided not to cut down the nets after the game, even though they clinched the A10 outright. they have bigger things ahead of them. what a time to be fucking alive. and to top it off, ESPN will be bringing College GameDay to Dayton next Saturday.
i got home and saw the highlights of the New York Rangers 5-2 loss at Philadelphia. i knew the road winning streak was going to end sometime. even worse news, Chris Krieder broke his foot last night blocking a shot. great.
Smackdown was good last night. so i guess Goldberg beat The Fiend so Roman Reigns can take on Goldberg at WrestleMania. at least i know the match i will be taking a piss break in. So, The Fiend will now take on John Cena at WrestleMania and i really hope this is a torch passing match.
205 Live was really good last night.
High Maintenance was brilliant last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was really good last night as well.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live and ROH.
i'll probably watch plenty of college basketball and some of the MLS tonight.
i was pleasantly pleased when Liverpool lost today. that brought a smile to my face.
the goal tomorrow is to get the blog done before Manchester United plays at Everton in the morning. i want to do that because the Rangers play at home tomorrow against Philadelphia in the afternoon.
it's supposed to be dry this weekend and get warm enough to melt the snow. of course, it's supposed to rain most of the start of next week. as usual for Ohio, the weather changes just enough to make sure everyone is fucking sick all the time.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.
until tomorrow kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i think i might have got 4 hours of sleep right on the nose when i woke up this morning to take a shower. we got to the car dealership before our appointment time. i'm a bit of an asshole about being late. i fucking hate it. mom wasn't feeling well, so she just had them fix the license plate and she would reschedule the oil change, etc. about 45 minutes later, we were leaving. it's been raining the whole damn day long. mom wanted McDonald's for breakfast, so i got some of that on the way home. and before we knew it, it was time to go south of town for her physical therapy session.
mom has been able to get around more and more without her cane. she's really making some progress. i'm trying not to be too worrisome and end up holding her back in any regard. but, i do get a little nervous when she gets a bit wobbly. the last thing i want to see is her fall again and have to get another hip replacement.
while she was in physical therapy, i wrote 14 poems. that gives me 44 for the month, i do believe. i'll type these up tonight while i've got the television on in the background.
after her physical therapy, we went to a late lunch. i might have actually enjoyed it more if i wasn't in so much pain from the fucking rain. i joked with my mother that if i ever start making real money, i could actually afford the good shit that would take the pain away. she laughed and said the shit that will end up killing you. i laughed and said like i haven't already had those dreams.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
The Voice was pretty good last night as well.
the New York Rangers lost last night to Washington 4-2. they play at Washington tomorrow night.
the New York Yankees won last night at Atlanta 5-1. i did get to see the mammoth home run Stanton hit. i have a feeling this is going to be a fun season.
The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling was excellent last night. i can't wait to see part 2 tonight. Garry was a big comedic influence on my sense of humor, especially when i was growing up.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, Baskets, Hate Thy Neighbor, The Voice, The Chris Gethard Show, The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling and The Jim Jefferies Show. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
team USA men's national team plays a soccer friendly tonight at home against Parguay. i'm hoping a bunch of the kids get to play and i'd love to see them play well enough to win. i won't be holding my breath though.
i don't know when i'll be on here tomorrow. i know i have to take mom to get her taxes done in the afternoon.
